Description

---

The Adafruit PiTFT 2.8" LCD is a 320 x 240 pixel TFT with resistive touchscreen using an ILITEK ILI9340 driver and a STMicroelectronics STMPE811 resistive touchscreen controller.

This unit ties together the various components needed to make one of these boards work with Ultibo by finding the correct SPI device, creating the STMPE811 Touch device, creating the ILI9340 Framebuffer device and registering all of it with the correct parameters for the Adafruit board.

Initialization functions

procedure PiTFT28Init;

Description: Initialize the PiTFT28 unit and parameters

Note	Called only during system startup

function PiTFT28Start(Rotation:LongWord; const Device:String; DisplaySelect,TouchSelect:Word):THandle;

Description: Start the PiTFT28 driver and register the Touch, Backlight (GPIO) and Framebuffer devices associated with the display

Rotation	The rotation of the display (eg FRAMEBUFFER_ROTATION_180)
Device	The SPI device that the ILI9340 and STMPE610 devices are connected to
DisplaySelect	The SPI chip select of the ILI9340 LCD controller
TouchSelect	The SPI chip select of the STMPE610 touch controller
Return	The handle of the PiTFT28 on success or INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE on failure
Note	This function will be called during startup if the parameter PITFT28_AUTOSTART is True Can be called multiple times to support more than one PiTFT LCD display

function PiTFT28Stop(Handle:THandle):Boolean;

Description: Stop the PiTFT28 driver and deregister the Touch, Backlight (GPIO) and Framebuffer devices associated with the display

Handle	The handle of the PiTFT28 or INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE for the default display
Return	True if completed or False on failure
