Sunton ESP32-8048S070 - is it compatible?

[themagicm]

Hello..
Is it possible to use the below display with this library? If so, is there sample code or any settings somewhere I can use to utilize this library?

Hello, @themagicm

Please refer to this setup.
https://github.com/lovyan03/LovyanGFX/blob/master/src/lgfx_user/LGFX_ESP32S3_RGB_ESP32-8048S043.h

[themagicm]

Interesting... I was thinking that I'd try that to see what happens. Thanks, I'll let you know.

hi @lovyan03

I have the display at home and have just tried the code but unfortunately it is displayed all wrong.

like here:

#350 (comment)

do you have any idea what it can be?

thank you!

[Radek-Suski]

Any luck with that?

I am only getting something like this:

IMG_4291.mov

[bastelpingu]

with me it looks exactly the same... have you been able to fix it somehow?

[Radek-Suski]

Not yet. I am trying to start from the bottom with pure ESP32-IDF and see how it goes

[TangerineDreamer]

Hi, Radek
i've got the same result,even if i put all the settings of the arduino-gfx setup that works well ,in the lgfx setup,
but strangely the values working with arduino-gfx doesn't fit the datacheet from makerfabs.

but i think i have strange "better results" if i use this 3.5 inch setup coming from there:

https://github.com/Makerfabs/Makerfabs-ESP32-S3-SPI-TFT-with-Touch,

i know it's dummy because it's not 16 bits parrallel
i can see for a very short time some geometrics or rectangles.
they preconise PSRAM "disabled",but "OPI" works fine.

[Radek-Suski]

Thanks. Will check. But to be honest with arduino-gfx I have also weird result

[MMlodzinski]

Hello everyone,

I've made an example using pure ESP-IDF (5.1 version) that make use of the screen and touch of this board. Maybe it will help you somehow, link to repo below:
Sunton_ESP32-8048S070c LVGL example

[TangerineDreamer]

Good thing,can you build from this example, a lovyan gfx setup for us?

[MMlodzinski]

Well, to be honest I've never used lovyan gfx. So I could try, but don't expect results very soon, as I don't have much time.

[TangerineDreamer]

We have time :)
A bunch of guys are waiting for !!

[mhaberler]

here's an Arduino, non-lovyanGFX example for the 7in display: https://github.com/mhaberler/squareline-esp32/blob/8b614edb3e3b8ee7108dd8737460bb2105722816/src/sunton/main.cpp to take "inspiration" from ;)

[TLaren]

Long time no action.
If anyone is watching...

Using lovyanGFX 1.1.12
Using the example I found the following:

The recommended LGFX_ESP32S3_RGB_ESP32-8048S043.h file is for the 4.3 display.
Most of the pins are wrong. So here is the ones that worked for me.

#include "hal/gpio_types.h"

#define LGFX_USE_V1
#include <LovyanGFX.hpp>

#include <lgfx/v1/platforms/esp32s3/Panel_RGB.hpp>
#include <lgfx/v1/platforms/esp32s3/Bus_RGB.hpp>

#include <driver/i2c.h>

  LGFX(void)
  {
    {
      auto cfg = _panel_instance.config();

      cfg.memory_width  = 800;
      cfg.memory_height = 480;
      cfg.panel_width  = 800;
      cfg.panel_height = 480;

      cfg.offset_x = 0;
      cfg.offset_y = 0;

      _panel_instance.config(cfg);
    }

    {
      auto cfg = _panel_instance.config_detail();

      cfg.use_psram = 1;

      _panel_instance.config_detail(cfg);
    }

    {
      auto cfg = _bus_instance.config();
      cfg.panel = &_panel_instance;
      cfg.pin_d0  = GPIO_NUM_15;  // B0

      cfg.pin_pclk    = GPIO_NUM_42;

    }
    _panel_instance.setBus(&_bus_instance);

    {
      auto cfg = _light_instance.config();
      cfg.pin_bl = GPIO_NUM_2;
      _light_instance.config(cfg);
    }
    _panel_instance.light(&_light_instance);

    {
      auto cfg = _touch_instance.config();
      cfg.x_min      = 0;
      cfg.x_max      = 800;
      cfg.y_min      = 0;
      cfg.y_max      = 480;
      cfg.pin_int    = GPIO_NUM_NC;
      cfg.bus_shared = false;
      cfg.offset_rotation = 1;

      cfg.i2c_addr   = 0x14;        // 0x5D , 0x14
      _touch_instance.config(cfg);
      _panel_instance.setTouch(&_touch_instance);
    }

    setPanel(&_panel_instance);
  }
};

I created a file LGFX_ESP32S3_RGB_ESP32-8049S070.h
and put in the folder then included it
#include "LGFX_ESP32S3_RGB_ESP32-8049S070.h"

Commented out the autodetect files
//#define LGFX_AUTODETECT // 自動認識 (D-duino-32 XS, WT32-SC01, PyBadge はパネルID読取りが出来ないため自動認識の対象から外れています)
//#include <LGFX_AUTODETECT.hpp> // クラス"LGFX"を準備します
and it compiles and runs.
The file I used was example 1_simple_use_LGFX.ino

I hope that someone finds this useful.
Like it or comment.

After further investigation I found that in lgfx_user there is LGFX_Sunton_ESP32-8048S070.h that works great.
Just add #include <lgfx_user/LGFX_Sunton_ESP32-8048S070.h> just after #include <LovyanGFX.hpp>

So the first few lines of your program should be something like this:

#include <LovyanGFX.hpp>
#include <lgfx_user/LGFX_Sunton_ESP32-8048S070.h>

static LGFX lcd;

Hi,TLaren
THANK YOU!!!
Sure i am not alone to say that,many guys struggle to make it work and quit,but you did it :)
All the examples are now working for me,feel better today :)

[TangerineDreamer]

Hey Tobozo,
The "Sunton ESP32-8048S070" setup found by TLaren is working,can you put it in the "lgfx_user" ?
And why not write the title header of the present post as [solved] ?

[TLaren]

Actually it is there, well now, I found it a day or so ago. See my comment above.

[TangerineDreamer]

Ooops sorry ,it's my bad,
It has been here for 10 months and i did'nt noticed it :)
That's the reason i think it's better to change the title of this present post --> [solved]
Maybe tobozo can do it.
