low end camera LCD

Post by onejeepum »

Hi i am designing a low end camcorder and i would like it to have a nice or semi nice lcd on it, i found some nifty LCD's for raspberry pi's that would work... except for that the framerate on them is to slow and it uses spi !

The chip that i am using does not natively support spi and i do want the full 30fps that a camcorder should have. i am using the altera max 10 so i can do differential pairs and lvds and different voltage schemes so basically anything you want can be thrown at it except for spi ! i am not sure about I2C yet. If someone could point me to a simple LCD that is 4" (my optimal size) that takes regular gpio instead of spi or I2c i would be much appreciative !

We don't have anything that does LVDS, but we have 2.8" and 3.5" TFTs with 8-bit interfaces:

I was thinking of something more like this ....

the only problem is that there is no datasheet to really pair things up with, i appreciate the pinout but without knowing what spi commands to sit im basically worse off then being in the dark here...

I'm afraid everything else we have uses either HDMI or SPI.
