For 5 inch screen,the high current is needed.But the current of arduino uno or arduino mega board is low, an external 5V power supply is needed. Refer to the image shows the external power supply position on shield ER-AS-RA8875.

The SainSmart TFT LCD module works in 3.3V voltage level and you need to use cables to connect with Arduino Mega. And this shield can help you out of the bothers to use other cables. You just need to plug the module to Mega through this shield.

TFT01 LCD is working at 3.3V voltage, it cannot be used directly on top of a standard Arduino board, so in order to make TFT01 LCD compatible for using on standard Arduino board, designed section TFT Shield, can be directly plugged into the Arduino board^^TFT01 LCD 16 can support the current mode, since there is sufficient Mega2560 IO, while using only a touch screen interface or SD card interface, like in the case of face 328S will not exist^^TFT01LCD supports 8-bit mode, can use SD card interface and touch screen interface at the same time, adopts IC voltage division, makes the TFT display more stable^^This LCD TFT01 Arduino Mega shield V 2.2 is fit for 3.2 inch TFT LCD Module; The TFT01 MEGA shield supports 16-bit mode; Because of Mega board have enough pins for using SD card and touch function at the same time^^ 3.2 inch TFT LCD Shield, Can be directly to the 3.2 "TFT on the shields, can be compatible with the Arduino

Grove expansion module designed for boards compatible with Arduino Mega and Google ADK. It is equipped with connectors to which you can attach modules and sensors compatible with the Grove standard. This allows you to quickly design device prototypes and test the capabilities of the sensors. The board is equipped with 21 Grove connectors, including connectors with analog inputs, digital pins, UART and I2C interface. Besides, the user has available 3-pin connectors with PWM signal for controlling servos, reset button and extended Arduino connectors and ICSP connector. Full documentation of the module with examples of use is available on the product page.

2.8" TFT Touch Shield is an Arduino / Arduino Mega compatible multicolored TFT display with a 4-wire resistive touch screen. It includes an Arduino shield compatible footprint for attachment. The TFT driver is based on professional Driver IC and with 8 bit data and 4 bit control interface.

The TFT library provides the following Application Programming Interfaces(API). The library makes use of direct access to PORT registers instead of Arduino APIs. This is to increase the speed of communication between MCU and TFT. At present, the library supports Arduino, Arduino Mega (1280 or 2560) and Seeeduino ADK Main Board compatible boards. In Mega the 8bit data port of TFT is distributed to different pins belonging to different ports. This decreases the speed of graphics drawing when compared to Arduino. The choice of port pins are purely based on Arduino / Mega port pin arrangement.

TFT Touch Shield uses the Adafruit Touch Screen Library. To understand the principle behind resistive touch screen refer External Links. In short, a 4-wire resistive touch screen provides two voltage divider each for X and Y axis. By applying proper voltages for each axis and scanning the ADC values the position of the touch can be detected. These values are always prone to noise. Hence a digital filter is used.

The Raw ADC value has to be converted to Pixel Co-ordinates. This is done with map function. This mapping changes for v0.9 and v1.0. The demo applications already takes care of this mapping.

Adafruit took their popular 1.8" TFT breakout board and remixed it into an Arduino shield complete with microSD card slot and a 5-way joystick navigation switch and three selection buttons! Since the display uses only 4 pins to communicate and has its own pixel-addressable frame buffer, it can be used easily to add a display & interface without exhausting the memory or pins.

New! Adafruit have updated this shield to be "Arduino R3" format compatible so you can now use it with any and all Arduinos or Metros - including the Metro M0 or M4, Arduino Mega, Zero, etc. They also use Adafruit seesaw for the TFT backlight, TFT reset, and button inputs - you can query the buttons and joystick over I2C now, so only 2 pins are needed to communicate with all 8 switches.

The 1.8" display has 128x160 color pixels. Unlike the low cost "Nokia 6110" and similar LCD displays, which are CSTN type and thus have poor color and slow refresh, this display is a true TFT! The TFT driver (ST7735R) can display full 18-bit color (262,144 shades!).

The shield has the TFT display soldered on (it uses a delicate flex-circuit connector) as well as a ultra-low-dropout 3.3V regulator and a 3/5V level shifter so its safe to use with 3V or 5V Arduino compatibles. Adafruit also had some space left over so they placed a microSD card holder (so you can easily load full color bitmaps from a FAT16/FAT32 formatted microSD card), a 5-way navigation switch (left, right, up, down, select) and three tactile buttons marked A BC. The microSD card is not included.

If you just want to display text, shapes, lines, pixels, etc the shield uses the SPI pins (SCK/MOSI/MISO), I2C pins (SDA & SCL) and digital #8. For the microSD card, you"ll also give up Digital #4. This shield works with any Arduino UNO and compatibles, Mega, Zero, etc. If it"s shield compatible, you"re good to go.

Comes as a fully assembled and tested shield with the display, microsd card holder and nav switch as well as a stick of 0.1" header. To finish up and use, you will need to solder on the header onto the shield PCB, a quick 10 minute task.

Display current draw is mostly based on the backlight, with full backlight the current draw is ~100mA, this does not include the SD Card. SD cards can draw 20-100mA based on read/write. Measure current draw in circuit to get precise numbers.
