ttodorov 9:58b328831d0a 42 *
ttodorov 9:58b328831d0a 43 * This is the utility class, through which the display can be manipulated
ttodorov 9:58b328831d0a 44 * and graphics objects can be shown to the user. A known display, which
ttodorov 9:58b328831d0a 45 * works with this library is the ITDB02-1.8SP from iTeadStudio - a RGB TFT
ttodorov 9:58b328831d0a 46 * with 128x160 pixels resolution and 262K colors, using serail interface.
ttodorov 9:58b328831d0a 47 *
ttodorov 9:58b328831d0a 48 * The display needs 5 or 6 pins to work with mbed, uses +3.3V for backlight,
ttodorov 9:58b328831d0a 49 * power and logic, thus can be interfaced directly to the mbed kit without
ttodorov 9:58b328831d0a 50 * the need of shields or level shifters as with Arduino.
ttodorov 9:58b328831d0a 51 *
