Raspberry Pi LCD on PICO

butterbellybelly opened this issue · comments

I have a 3.5" LCD for the pi which I have used.

I also have a PI pico on a dev board (https://www.waveshare.com/pico-to-hat.htm) which has a PI based connection socket - Is it possible to use this LCD with the PICO on the extension socket.

many thanks

I have a 3.5 inch 480x320 px goodtft and a pi pico as well.
The screen works well with a 1G RaspberryPi 1 under Raspbian using an Openbox desktop as Openbox dispenses with with menu's giving maximum screen space for
the actual app.

As to the Pico we need to gather together the physical pinouts and voltage levels first
there may not be a direct plugin option more likely a mess of wires on a breadbaord.

As to the programing the Pico has no OS so you would have to code a demo stand alone program in C or MicroPython.
