This is SainSmart MEGA2560 + 7 inch TFT LCD module with the TFT LCD shield kit For arduino enthusiasts.It includes one pcs of SainSmart MEGA2560 , 7 inch TFT LCD display and a TFT LCD shield for Arduino MEGA2560.This kit helps you to avoid complicated wiring processes and save you much time to accomplish your goal. You can feel free to enjoy the touch function and SD card function by using our codes.We will provided you the whole document including the example project of the kit. We will supply you the technical support after your purchase.
The MEGA2560 R3 also adds SDA and SCL pins next to the AREF. In addition, there are two new pins placed near the RESET pin. One is the IOREF that allow the shields to adapt to the voltage provided from the board. The other is a not connected and is reserved for future purposes. The MEGA2560 R3 works with all existing shields but can adapt to new shields which use these additional pins.
It is 100% compatible with the normal MCU like ARM AVR PIC and 8051,especially on Arduino family such as Arduino Due and Arduino MEGA2560(R3). The module uses the LCD controller Chip SSD1963 with 7 inch LCD including the touchscreen.
LCD-specificed intialization code is provided, so that you can save time to optimize power control register and gamma curves for best display performance. We have test the provided code, it gives the best display performanace
This is Sainsmart TFT LCD Extend shield for arduino due .Using this shield can help you out of the bothers to use other cables. You just need to plug the module to arduino due through this shield.
The shield defines that all the the data transmit ports are PC1-PC8 and PC12-PC19,the controll pins are PD0-PD3.The perfect design could realize that the data transmits in high speed.The SPI interface is designed in the ISP header of arduino due so that the SPI transfer with DMA could be achieved in high speed with no drag.
This shiled is just for Arduno MEGA2560. If you need the LCD Extend shield for Arduino Due,you need a similar shield which is also provided from our store.
This shiled is just for 7 inch TFT LCD.If you need the LCD Extend shield for 3.2/3.5/...,you need a similar shield which is also provided from our store.
A 2.4” TFT LCD module consists of a bright backlight (4 white LEDs) and a colourful 240X320 pixels display. It also features individual RGB pixel control giving a much better resolution than the black and white displays. A resistive touch screen comes pre-installed with the module as a bonus and hence you can easily detect your finger presses anywhere on the screen.
The TFT comes with an auto-reset circuit which gets active on every breakout. However, a user can reset the module using this pin also, in case setup is not resetting clean.

Resistive Touch Pins – Y+, X+, Y-, and X- are the 4 resistive touch pins which require analog pins to read and determine touch pins. Their overlay is fixed at the top of the module which makes them electrically separate from the TFT. They can be used is 8-bit as well as SPI mode.
The 2.4” TFT LCD module supports many modes. However, two of them are very popular among users – “SPI mode” and “8-bit mode”. The display contains pins on both sides required for a mode and a user can switch easily between them by simply rewiring the display. It should be noted that only one mode can be used at a time.
A 2.4” TFT module has a very flexible usage. It is compatible with all your DIY projects where you want to add a bright, colourful, and touchscreen enabled display.
In this Arduino touch screen tutorial we will learn how to use TFT LCD Touch Screen with Arduino. You can watch the following video or read the written tutorial below.
As an example I am using a 3.2” TFT Touch Screen in a combination with a TFT LCD Arduino Mega Shield. We need a shield because the TFT Touch screen works at 3.3V and the Arduino Mega outputs are 5 V. For the first example I have the HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor, then for the second example an RGB LED with three resistors and a push button for the game example. Also I had to make a custom made pin header like this, by soldering pin headers and bend on of them so I could insert them in between the Arduino Board and the TFT Shield.
Here’s the circuit schematic. We will use the GND pin, the digital pins from 8 to 13, as well as the pin number 14. As the 5V pins are already used by the TFT Screen I will use the pin number 13 as VCC, by setting it right away high in the setup section of code.
I will use the UTFT and URTouch libraries made by Henning Karlsen. Here I would like to say thanks to him for the incredible work he has done. The libraries enable really easy use of the TFT Screens, and they work with many different TFT screens sizes, shields and controllers. You can download these libraries from his website, RinkyDinkElectronics.com and also find a lot of demo examples and detailed documentation of how to use them.
After we include the libraries we need to create UTFT and URTouch objects. The parameters of these objects depends on the model of the TFT Screen and Shield and these details can be also found in the documentation of the libraries.
So now I will explain how we can make the home screen of the program. With the setBackColor() function we need to set the background color of the text, black one in our case. Then we need to set the color to white, set the big font and using the print() function, we will print the string “Arduino TFT Tutorial” at the center of the screen and 10 pixels down the Y – Axis of the screen. Next we will set the color to red and draw the red line below the text. After that we need to set the color back to white, and print the two other strings, “by HowToMechatronics.com” using the small font and “Select Example” using the big font.
This module is a 2.4-inch TFT LCD module with “320X240” resolution and 65K color display. It is suitable for Arduino Uno and Mega2560 development boards, and also supports SD card expansion function. It uses 8-bit parallel port communication, and the driver IC is ILI9341.
The 2.4-inch display is a ready-made shield for Arduino Uno, which can also be placed on the Arduino Mega. The pins of this shield are designed to be easily installed on the Arduino. The bad point about these modules is that they use all Arduino Uno pins.
