#sh8601 — Public Fediverse posts

Is there anyone in the room with knowledge about #ESP32 microcontrollers?

I am playing with a #Waveshare development board that has an #AMOLED and a touchscreen, and it says it has built-in #SH8601 display driver and #FT3168 capacitive touch chip, using #QSPI and #I2C communication respectively.

https://www.waveshare.com/product/arduino/boards-kits/esp32-s3-touch-amoled-1.8.htm

It directly works in #Arduino with #C, but I am trying to make it work with #MicroPython.

Before I spend effort trying to compile it with #LVGL, I want to know if I could print a "Hello World" to the screen as is, and while my mind tells me that I need a driver, the sentence "built-in display driver using QSPI" makes me think that I could eventually use the display without code drivers, but I don't know how.

I'd love to see an example, if it's possible, or to be pointed to any resources that I can read in this regard. I am complete newbie.

Re-posts are appreciated.

Thank in advance 😊
