rasbian tft display drivers made in china

DAS main products are 1.5inch to 10.4inch color TFT , to meet different customer’s request , we always keep developing new product . Our products cover a lot of fields , such as medical , industrial , communication ,supermarket etc . From 2010 ,we developed transflective TFT and serial interface TFT , won some new customers in geological survey field ,smart furniture, elevator and so on.

While googling for any info about lcd controller I came across this page: http://heikki.virekunnas.fi/2015/raspberry-pi-tft/, author managed to get from manufacturer patch file for kernel sources and tested it with 4.1.y - on which lcd worked. But still LCD replace HDMI, but I want to use this screen as additional for user interaction, while the bigger on HDMI as presentation monitor.

Since, fbtft has been merged with rpi kernel, so the fb drivers (including ili9341.c) was moved to fbtft_device driver (so the author of page can"t compile latest kernel with driver+patch).

- Controller is not ILI9341/ILI9325 - those are for smaller displays (320x240, etc...), I guess this might be ILI9486/9488 because they are for 480x320 displays. But when I compared init with DS it does not fit right so LCD can have a clone of ILI9486/9488 ...

Reader [poipoi] recently wrote into our tip line to tell us about an “amazingly fast” Raspberry Pi display driver with a README file that “is an actual joy to read”. Of course, we had to see for ourselves. The fbcp-ili9341 repo, by [juj], seems to live up to the hype! The software itself appears impressive, and the README is detailed, well-structured, educational, and dare we say entertaining?

The driver’s main goal is to produce high frame rates — up to around 60 frames per second — over an SPI bus, and it runs on various Raspberry Pi devices including the 2, 3 and Zero W. Any video output that goes to the Pi’s HDMI port will be mirrored to a TFT display over the SPI bus. It works with many of the popular displays currently out there, including those that use the ILI9341, ILI9340, and HX8357D chipsets.

We’ve covered similarly performance-focused SPI display drivers for the esp8266, esp32, and teensy, if you’re looking to use a more lightweight computing platform.

3) Connect the TF card to the Raspberry Pi, start the Raspberry Pi. The LCD will display after booting up, and then log in to the Raspberry Pi terminal,(You may need to connect a keyboard and HDMI LCD to Pi for driver installing, or log in remotely with SSH)
