Help with " 2.0" 320x240 Color IPS TFT Display" drivers

Post by AsherPilai »

Hi,

I have several questions regarding above mentioned display:
1. In the product page (https://www.adafruit.com/product/4311 ) there is a link to the drivers library “Adafruit_ILI9341” : https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_ILI9341
But in the “README.md” this product is not mentioned.
1.1. Is it the valid library?
1.2. If not – what is the valid one and where I can find it?
2. In this link: https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-gfx ... cs-library , under the topic “The Old Way” - there is option to download the libraries “Adafruit_GFX” and “Adafruit_BusIO”:
2.1. I must use those libraries? Or the library “Adafruit_ILI9341” alone if enough?
3. Do you have an code examples that runs on another platform else than Arduino?

Thanks

The Adafruit_ILI9341 is the correct library to use. Ignore the "old way" method and install the library using the Arduino Library Manager. Any dependent libraries, like GFX and BusIO will also be installed as needed.

The guide here shows basic usage with Arduino along with an example:

The display can also be used with CircuitPython on supported boards:
