This 2.2" 18-bit color TFT LCD display breakout uses 4-wire SPI to communicate and has its own pixel-addressable frame buffer, it can be used with every kind of microcontroller. The breakout has an ultra-low-dropout 3.3V regulator and a 3/5V level shifter so you can use it with 3.3V or 5V power and logic and a microSD card holder so you can easily load full-color bitmaps from a FAT16/FAT32 formatted microSD card.

I rechecked my wiring compared to the sketch, and found that RST and DC/RS were swapped from the Adafruit library. However, compiling this sketch (whether default or changed to include the define call for RST) gives "Error compiling for Arduino - Exit status 1". From what I found online, this usually means there is a typo somewhere in the sketch - but this is an official sketch straight from the library. It should at least compile, whether or not the wiring is correct... am I missing a library or something? Using a different one than I should?

A full color 240xRGBx320 pixel TFT display module with 2.2" diagonal active area. Very small text and images look sharp on this graphic display, with its dense pixel pitch of 0.141 x 0.141 millimeters. The TFT"s 6:00 o" clock viewing direction works well for devices that must be easy to read above eye level without fading, such as signal analyzers or other benchtop laboratory equipment.

Hi guys, welcome to today’s tutorial. Today, we will look on how to use the 1.8″ ST7735  colored TFT display with Arduino. The past few tutorials have been focused on how to use the Nokia 5110 LCD display extensively but there will be a time when we will need to use a colored display or something bigger with additional features, that’s where the 1.8″ ST7735 TFT display comes in.

The ST7735 TFT display is a 1.8″ display with a resolution of 128×160 pixels and can display a wide range of colors ( full 18-bit color, 262,144 shades!). The display uses the SPI protocol for communication and has its own pixel-addressable frame buffer which means it can be used with all kinds of microcontroller and you only need 4 i/o pins. To complement the display, it also comes with an SD card slot on which colored bitmaps can be loaded and easily displayed on the screen.

Due to variation in display pin out from different manufacturers and for clarity, the pin connection between the Arduino and the TFT display is mapped out below:

We will use two libraries from Adafruit to help us easily communicate with the LCD. The libraries include the Adafruit GFX library which can be downloaded here and the Adafruit ST7735 Library which can be downloaded here.

We will use two example sketches to demonstrate the use of the ST7735 TFT display. The first example is the lightweight TFT Display text example sketch from the Adafruit TFT examples. It can be accessed by going to examples -> TFT -> Arduino -> TFTDisplaytext. This example displays the analog value of pin A0 on the display. It is one of the easiest examples that can be used to demonstrate the ability of this display.

The second example is the graphics test example from the more capable and heavier Adafruit ST7735 Arduino library. I will explain this particular example as it features the use of the display for diverse purposes including the display of text and “animated” graphics. With the Adafruit ST7735 library installed, this example can be accessed by going to examples -> Adafruit ST7735 library -> graphics test.

The first thing, as usual, is to include the libraries to be used after which we declare the pins on the Arduino to which our LCD pins are connected to. We also make a slight change to the code setting reset pin as pin 8 and DC pin as pin 9 to match our schematics.

Next, we create an object of the library with the pins to which the LCD is connected on the Arduino as parameters. There are two options for this, feel free to choose the most preferred.

To confirm, I had the T4 intermittently working on both the adafruit ili9341 library and the optimised ili9341_t3. I"ve been through 3 T4s and I have 5 different ILI934 displays. (all give the same results, pull ups, no pullups, removed sd circuitry, ran the T4 at 5v I"ve tried it all!)
