3.3" LCD Display + ST7796SI Driver

Thu Jul 27, 2017 3:25 pm

Hello,

I am looking to hook a Pi up to the following screen, but after quite a bit of time I still have no idea where to start. Can anyone point me in the right direction for what I need to do in order to get this screen working with a Pi?

Thank you!

First of all you need the full spec.
Doesn't it have MIPI interface? Then you will need to have HDMi-to-MIPI (DSI) bridge or enough knowledge to get the DSI working with non-official display.
Search the forum for circular display.
In case of other interface you will need to write a Linux driver for it.
