Description

These little 320x240 pixel color displays are inexpensive and easy to use with microcontrollers. But normally, only an ugly 7x5 font is available. This project aims to make lots of proper fonts work, at sizes ranging from tiny to really large characters. The font files are on Github, here: https://github.com/PaulStoffregen/ILI9341_fonts The font drawing code is currently here: https://github.com/PaulStoffregen/ILI9341_t3

Components

  • 1 × 320x240 Color TFT Display ILI9341 controller, SPI interface, typical $5 to $9
  • 1 × Teensy 3.1
  • 1 × PCB https://oshpark.com/shared_projects/IWylNfzD
  • 1 × 100 ohm resistor

Wow, your project is such a great. As I have learned something new by reading this project. Would like to share it with the team members of https://www.dcfont.com/glitter-text/ so that they could also read it and can implement something new in our running projects.

There are a couple of fast versions for the adafruit library but the standard fonts are horrible above a certain size and the way adafruit implemented custom font rendering causes them to blink on refresh. I guess what I would be looking for was something like UTFT, but UTFT runs very slow regardless of the hardware (ARM, AVR, ESP, HW, SW, etc).

Is a monochrome graphic display the only way to get a display with a decent refresh the page: https://insta-fonts com
