Renesas offers a software and hardware solution for QVGA TFT panels. http://america.renesas.com/h8lcd The software API is basic, but meets your requirments, and is free. Chip count and price is low compared to other options. --vinnie --------------------------------------- This message was sent using the comp.arch.embedded web interface on http://www.EmbeddedRelated.com

Thanks, Scott, I'll check that out.

If you are talking software, I have had good results with the Micrium/Segger uC/GUI. I have used it on touchscreen projects a few times, all on ARMs, both 7's and 9's. I haven't used a PIC32 for anything yet. -- Scott Validated Software Lafayette, CO __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 4548 (20091027) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com

What tool options would the cognoscenti suggest for a UI design
incorporating a QVGA touchscreen?

Needs to have buttons, dynamic and static content etc., probably not
animation or video. Probably ARM based, but could be PIC32 or
something else. 

Thanks for any suggestions.
