Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

I expect many of you are aware of this module - LINK

But WS do not specify what controller this LCD module is.  
They DO tell you what pins it is connected to, so you know it is an SPI display, and they tell you it is an IPS one of 0.96" size, but they make no mention of the controller used, so I don't know if there is a driver in MMBASIC for it.

Can anyone tell me if they know what it is, and if it is supported by MMBASIC?

I had a look in the Wiki for this module, but they don't seem to want to specify the LCD controller on the LCD they are using.

Try GitHub, the Micro Python people may have worked it out.

Edit
It might be this - LCD1602 I2C

At 160x80 colour it could well be a ST7735.
