adafruit tft display raspberry pi manufacturer

Is this not the cutest little display for the Raspberry Pi? It features a 2.8" display with 320x240 16-bit color pixels and a resistive touch overlay. The plate uses the high speed SPI interface on the Pi and can use the mini display as a console, X window port, displaying images or video etc. Best of all it plugs right in on top!

It"s designed to fit nicely onto the Pi 1 Model A or B but also works OK with the Pi 4, Pi Zero, Pi 3, Pi 2 or Pi 1 Model A+ or B+(any Pi with a 2x20 connector) as long as you don"t mind the PCB overhangs the USB ports by 5mm, see the photos above. If you have a modern Pi with a 2x20 connector, you may want to grab a PiTFT 2.8" Plus which does not overhang

Uses the hardware SPI pins (SCK, MOSI, MISO, CE0, CE1) as well as GPIO #25 and #24. All other GPIO are unused. Since we had a tiny bit of space, there are 4 spots for optional slim tactile switches wired to four GPIOs, that you can use if you want to make a basic user interface. For example, you can use one as a power on/off button. See below for the link to get the optional tact switches, they"re not included.

As of 8/15/2014 it comes fully assembledand ready to plug into your Pi! The photos above also show the optional installed slim tactile buttons. The tactile buttons are not included, but you can pick up a pack of 20 here. Some basic soldering is required to install the buttons.

We"ve created a custom kernel package based of off Notro"s awesome framebuffer work, so you can install it over your existing Raspbian (or derivative) images in just a few commands. Our tutorial shows you how to install the software, as well as calibrate the touchscreen, show videos, display images such as from your PiCam and more!

The Raspberry Pi ecosystem is extremely versatile, with developers finding endless uses for the popular single-board computers (SBCs). One popular use for the Raspberry Pi is turning it into a retro games console, which is where something like the Adafruit Color TFT Bonnet comes in.

The Adafruit 1.3 " Color TFT Bonnet for Raspberry Pi to give it its full name, the extension board feature more than just a 1.3-inch colour IPS display. Adafruit has included a joystick and two pushbuttons too, with latter arranged like those in the Game Boy and Game Boy Color. The Adafruit does not include buttons that could be configured for Start and Select, though.

The IPS panel operates at 240 x 240 and can be controlled over SPI. According to the manufacturer, the board is compatible with all common Raspberry Pi variants, including the Pi Zero. There is also a Qwiic/STEMMA QT connector on the bottom of the board. Adafruit provides a kernel driver and Python library for the ST7789 chipset powering the board too.

The Adafruit 1.3 " Color TFT Bonnet costs US$17.50, with Adafruit offering bulk-buy discounts. The unit is out of stock for the time being, but the company will contact prospective buyers when it has produced another batch.
