RA8875 coming to an end, any alternatives

Post by EthanReed »

Hello, I recently attended the Adafruit Ask an Engineer and asked the following,"Are there any upgrades to the RA8875 board". The responded WITH,"There are no upgrades and the chip is about to be discontinued in the future. I have a project that uses a 5" or 7" display and need touch support and color. I have already checked to see if there was just a plain touch layer with there is but the controller is discontinued too. This is so frustrating and I need some help. Because of the driver board being discontinued, I would like to improve the screen. Maybe an OLED with touch or even just an OLED and a 5" touch resistive layer with a controller. I am using an Arduino and it needs to be compatible. Thanks for all the help!
