I have received and connected my 2.2″ Adafruit TFTLCD display. Unlike my previous display, I had no issues connecting this one.<\/p>\n

In additon to the Adafruit Core GFX library, I had to include the specific driver library for this display, which was ILI9340<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I was able to run through all of the basic “Hello World” tests from the graphic test program with no issues.<\/p>\n

This display can use both the high-speed SPI bus and a slower connection type. Since my RAM module also uses SPI, I had to do some research into this system in order to connect both of them to the SPI bus at the same time. I will post in some detail on this later.<\/p>\n

Now all I need to do to build the Thermal Scanner is connect up the SD card slot on the TFT display, and connect the Flir Dev Kit.<\/p>\n
