MikroE TFT drivers package lack the HX8238A and HX8238D drivers.
It have found that those drivers are very popular for 3.5 inch displays.
I wonder if someone can add those drivers to the compiler.
My research revealed that in the TFT_Defs only three functions are needed for each driver:
for example for the HX8238A you have to write the following functions:
TFT_Reset_HX8238A()
TFT_Init_HX8238A(width, heigh)
TFT_Init_HX8238D_Custom(with, height)
Writing those function means reading the datasheet and writing to the appropriate registers the right values.
The code should be added to the file __Lib_TFT_Defs.c that might be found in the MikroC installation folder in the Uses sub folder. the file contains the definitions of those functions for different display drivers.
Since I lack of a display with HX8238D but I know that I will need it shortly, I am willing to pay for this task and let the whole community of MikroE enjoy the library.
if you can do it and are interested please PM me from the forum.
