Hi,
I am about to start work on a 5" TFT driver PCB.
I am a little undecided on how to proceed with the driver.
The TFT is a 5" 800x480 pixel RGB display.
I have used a couple of different drivers for this sort of size screen and found them to be quite buggy. The RA8876 is a little mine field i found.
Recently i am seeing another controller being touted as the best one to buy. The EPSON S1D13517.
I was considering using the PIC32MZ (DA) series to create my own driver but before i go to the trouble thought i would see if anyone has any experience with the EPSON chip, or even with the PIC32, when it comes to driving these display.
This would end up as a possible commercial product so i need something reliable that will have longevity. The PIC32 rings that bell as when the chip becomes obsolete i can port it to the next chip.
