T-Display-S3 (touch version) trouble to connect SD card reader (SPI)

[eflorea]

Hi Stefan, I was curious if you using the SPI port had any interference with the touch functionality.

I noticed that in the pinout the SPI pins 10-13 are also connected to some of the touch pins ?

I'm still waiting on my device to arrive but I hope there is no issue there.

Thank you.

@eflorea The "Touch pins" are an ESP32 Espressif use of the pins as analog sensing for a home brew touch interface.
The Touch Screen on the LilyGO T-Display S3 Touch is I2C thus:

So the touch vesion uses up 4 GPIO that the standard model could use GPIO !!!
You should have no trouble.

Thanks for the heads up Terry, I just had my T-Display-S3 Touch delivered on Friday, I will be jumping on it very soon, I need to resolve an issue with the none touch unit....I posted that topic tonight.

Thank you again.

any thing new for now?
I tested the code above not luck.

@llsummer What problem are you having?
What exact board do you have?

Thanks.
I have T-Display S3 basic + SD card.
I heard that the Touch version more difficulty to work with SD?

@llsummer You should have no trouble with either.
Try this official sketch:

@teastain2 Thanks.
not work.

The example/SD just define 3 pins, and I didn't find any where mentioned SD_CS, can be a problem?

I used SD card reader with 6 pins.

@llsummer

You have to do more self-research. SD on ESP32 is not easy, but it can be done.
There are many many SD memories that cannot be used.

No, I will not elaborate.
