BuyDisplay TFT LCD Modifications

Post by yousai » Mon Jun 06, 2016 5:51 am

Hi!

After what seemed like an eternity I've finally received the display I ordered some 4 weeks ago, and as far as I can tell there hasn't been anyone on this board with a similar board. (heh).

I have yet to test the screen if it works at all, but I'm positive it'll be fine, the packaging was really neat!
Then I'll have to figure out if and where I can run it off of 5V.

Input is appreciated, here is a picture of the board:

Edit: I emailed the vendor and asked for schematics. They're not listed on the product page so here's hoping.

I got a reply from the vendor:
If you want to use 5.0v, Pls remove U4 and keep L9 short.

Important note, After you made above modifications, You are supposed to use 5v only, Don't use 12v, Otherwise the board and display shall get burned.

Happy tinkering everyone! :)
