Pin information for the PiTFT #151

Closed BruceJohnJennerLawso closed 7 years ago

As far as I know the PiTFT is probably the most well known display board besides the official screen, it would be nice to have it added to the list of boards.

Some useful information about the pin usage:

If we name them followed by size and resolution it may help. Or we can simply be opinionated and list just one or two. I think most/all of them use the same pins for the display signal, though?

I'm not sure if there are differences to the pinout... would need checking. There is no need for a custom kernel at this point though, so install instructions should be toned down to a sane level before pushing live ;-)

the PiTFT+ 3.5 will be in the next update (commit https://github.com/Gadgetoid/Pinout.xyz/commit/ad33003efe65585be5d977428b5072011ecbc66c )

... will have to check whether others have the same pinout and could be merged into it, or ned their own overlay.

Apologies for slow reply on this.

If we include nothing else, the 2.8 resistive & capacitive boards from adafruit as well as the 3.5 would be good to include. There are a multitude of knockoff tfts out there, but the adafruit ones are far away the most common.
