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 *
