4.3" LCD Breakout board schematic, WHERE?

Harley

For some reason I cannot locate the thread that had the reference to the Breakout board schematic for the 4.3" color LCD.

I thought I'd saved it as a .pdf but when I went to print it was just blank!!!

Can't seem to locate the thread from about a week ago. So have to create a thread to ask. I find info on Rayman's web site, but none to this small breakout board.

Harley,

Here's the link in the new forum (at least a link to the search to find it). Here it in the old forum. I didn't look through the 26 pages to see if there was schematic posted. There was a PCB Express file at Gaget Gangster. I've attached it. If you find a better schematic, let me know. I have one of Rayman's breakout boards but I haven't played with it yet. I have used his PTP a lot.

I couldn't upload the file. I think I have to restart my computer. Here's the link to Gaget Gangster.

Thanks Ariba,

Found I couldn't save as a .pdf; this is a .png file, what ever that format is. So did find a way to save the .png file and retain that in my 4.3"LCD folder on the iMac.

Thanks everyone for your efforts.

If you follow the link to Gadget Gangster's site, you can actually download both the Schematic and the Board Layout file for ExpressPCB.

Ray's Breakout Board is open sourced.

Here are pdf's of the schematic and ciruit board.

Thanks for those references for this breakout board.

Now, I'm wondering if the J3, J4 and J5 are required to be connected in any way, or are they Optional? Looking at the schematic, it appears they are NOT required to be used.

Hopefully only the J1 interface is needed. Is that a proper assumption?
