For reference, I did create the Waveshare_ILI9486 wrapper library which has been tested on the UNO/Mega with genuine Waveshare SPI shift-register based displays (including a basic GFX-style interface). As David points out, it is possible that your board may work with a Waveshare-style driver. Note that I have not yet tested the above library on any of the RPI board variants (so anshumantech"s test result is not surprising). I don"t recall seeing a schematic or know how the RPI A,B,C variants may differ, but assuming it is still ILI9486-based via 16b shift regs, perhaps some small tweaks to the library or pin connectivity might enable it to work.

In this guide we’re going to show you how you can use the 1.8 TFT display with the Arduino. You’ll learn how to wire the display, write text, draw shapes and display images on the screen.

The 1.8 TFT is a colorful display with 128 x 160 color pixels. The display can load images from an SD card – it has an SD card slot at the back. The following figure shows the screen front and back view.

This module uses SPI communication – see the wiring below . To control the display we’ll use the TFT library, which is already included with Arduino IDE 1.0.5 and later.

The TFT display communicates with the Arduino via SPI communication, so you need to include the SPI library on your code. We also use the TFT library to write and draw on the display.

In which “Hello, World!” is the text you want to display and the (x, y) coordinate is the location where you want to start display text on the screen.

The 1.8 TFT display can load images from the SD card. To read from the SD card you use the SD library, already included in the Arduino IDE software. Follow the next steps to display an image on the display:

Note: some people find issues with this display when trying to read from the SD card. We don’t know why that happens. In fact, we tested a couple of times and it worked well, and then, when we were about to record to show you the final result, the display didn’t recognized the SD card anymore – we’re not sure if it’s a problem with the SD card holder that doesn’t establish a proper connection with the SD card. However, we are sure these instructions work, because we’ve tested them.

In this guide we’ve shown you how to use the 1.8 TFT display with the Arduino: display text, draw shapes and display images. You can easily add a nice visual interface to your projects using this display.

I didn"t realize this instructable was for Visuino before I started breadboarding it and I almost had it completed before realizing there wasn"t a traditional code sample here I could use to complete it because I"m not into Visuino and never heard of it. I finished wiring my LCD to my nano using the circuit here but I didn"t have the same color wires as BoianM had used so it was a little confusing for me scrolling up and down this page to get the wires wired correctly so I decided to post this chart (below the LCD code) I made up for others to use to make it easier. And also I got some code up and running and it works!! and so I thought I"d post it as well for guys like me that might be looking for traditional arduino code. The code is by David A. Mellis and all I did was change Davids LiquidCrystal to this one "LiquidCrystal lcd(2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7);".
