SPI 2.8" 320x240 Touch Screen (GPIO)
RS422/RS485 Serial HAT combined with SPI 2.8''
Is it possible to use, at the same time, the SPI 2.8'' 320x240 Touch screen (GPIO) with the RS422 / RS485 Serial HAT?

I believe so yes. According to the schematic of the RS422/RS485 HAT - https://www.hwhardsoft.de/app/download/11143497697/RPI_RS485+Schematic+V01-01-00.pdf?t=1505155826 - It only uses GPIO 14,15 and 18.

Please can you provide a GPIO Pinout diagram for the screen connector
Hi, do you have the gpio pinout diagram for this screen, i purchased it a couple of weeks ago i need to use it in conjunction with a gyro sensor on the i2c bus so need to know which pins are which to connect to the breadboard. Its for a university project. many thanks.

GPIO BLOCK desoldering
Can the GPIO BLOCK be desoldered? i am after a very small from factor so im wundering how easy it would be to desolder it, and can they come desoldered?

The GPIO header is not designed to be desoldered - however if you have the skills and expertise I'm sure it could be done. Of course, if you damage the part in the process we would not be able to honor a warranty - it would be done at your own risk!Was this answer helpful?
