This is a port of Henning Kralsen's UTFT library for Arduino/chipKIT to mbed, refactored to make full use of C inheritance and access control, in order to reduce work when implementing new drivers and at the same time make the code more readable and easier to maintain. As of now supported are SSD1289 (16-bit interface), HX8340-B (serial interface) and ST7735 (serial interface). Drivers for other controllers will be added as time and resources to acquire the displays to test the code permit.

Dependents:   UTFT_SSD1289

ttodorov 4:3ac4239f6c9c 42 *
ttodorov 4:3ac4239f6c9c 43 * This is the utility class, through which the display can be manipulated
ttodorov 4:3ac4239f6c9c 44 * and graphics objects can be shown to the user. A known display, which
ttodorov 4:3ac4239f6c9c 45 * works with this library is the ITDB02-2.2SP from iTeadStudio - a RGB TFT
ttodorov 4:3ac4239f6c9c 46 * with 176x220 pixels resolution and 65K/256K colors, using serial interface.
ttodorov 4:3ac4239f6c9c 47 *
ttodorov 4:3ac4239f6c9c 48 * The display needs 4 or 5 pins to work with mbed. As it uses +3.3V for power
ttodorov 4:3ac4239f6c9c 49 * and logic, as well as the backlight, interfacing could happen directly
ttodorov 4:3ac4239f6c9c 50 * to the mbed without the need of shields or level shifters as with Arduino.
ttodorov 4:3ac4239f6c9c 51 *
