Mis-adventures with a generic 128×128 colour TFT Display

August 23, 2017 XTronical Uncategorized 0

In this article we look at driving a small 128×128 pixel 256K colour display using a ST7735 on-board driver chip.

Turned out not to as straight forward as I would have wanted but got there in the end!
