Tutorial – Arduino and ILI9325 colour TFT LCD modules (tronixstuff.wordpress.com) 29 points by platz 13y ago ↗ HN
[–] loser777 13y ago ↗ Doesn't this take the fun out of generating an [analog] video signal from a microcontroller though? Where's the cycle-counting timing goodness?Kidding aside, this looks like a fantastic toy to play around with. [–] platz 13y ago ↗ Gotta start somewhere ;). I'l see how it goes, have two LCD's ordered and on the way now. [–] [dead] fuckoffs 13y ago ↗ I have used them on ARM boards (STM32 Cortex M3). Quite easy there :) [–] fest 13y ago ↗ According to display controller's datasheet[1], it does support analog (RGB) input too ;)Edit: well, reading the datasheet a bit more, the RGB interface is somewhat digital. But fiddling with timing is still there ;)[1]: http://www.adafruit.com/datasheets/ILI9325.pdf [–] joezydeco 13y ago ↗ We embedded engineers think the same thing about stuff like Rails and Sinatra. Where's all the fun in making your own web stack anymore? =)

[–] [dead] LAMike 13y ago ↗ So is there any possible way to run an HTML5 app in the Arduino and then run it into the LCD screen?
