adafruit 5 color tft display for sale

3.5" TFT LCD touch screen graphic display with 320 x 480 px resolution and 18-bit colour depth. It works with both 3.3 V and 5 V. Additionally, there is a micro SD memory card reader on the board.

The screen is based on the HXD8357D controller, it has a built-in RAM memory, so the microcontroller is not loaded with the display control. The device can communicate in two modes: 8-bit and through the SPI bus. For 8-bit mode eight digital data lines and four control lines must be connected. SPI requires only five transmission lines, but is slower than 8-bit communication. In addition, four additional pins are required to operate the touch screen.

The leads areholes for the includedgoldpin connector- 2.54 mm raster (for self-soldering). They allow for connection of the display through wires or plugged into the contact plate.

Thanks to the built-in voltage converter the system works with both 3.3 V and 5 V logic. The installed slot allows to provide graphic files on micro SD card with FAT16/FAT32 system.

This lovely little display breakout is the best way to add a small, colorful and bright display to any project. Since the display uses 4-wire SPI to communicate and has its own pixel-addressable frame buffer, it can be used with every kind of microcontroller. Even a very small one with low memory and few pins available!

The 1.44" display has 128x128 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 16-bit color using our library code.

The breakout 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 you can use it with 3.3V or 5V power and logic. We also had a little space so we placed a microSD card holder so you can easily load full color bitmaps from a FAT16/FAT32 formatted microSD card. The microSD card is not included.

Adafruit 1.8" Color TFT Shield w/microSD and Joystickis the best way to add a small, colorful and bright display to any project.Adafruittook the popular 1.8" TFT breakout board and remixed it into an Arduino shield complete with microSD card slot and a 5-way joystick navigation!

Adafruit 1.8" Color TFT Shield w/microSD and Joystick has the TFT display soldered on as well as a ultra-low-dropout 3.3V regulator and a 3/5V level shifter so it’s safe to use with 5V Arduinos. There is also some space left over, so a microSD card holder and a 5-way navigation switch are added. Note that the microSD card is not included.

If you just want to display text, shapes, lines, pixels, etc., the shield uses pins 13, 11, 10 and 8. If you"d like to add the navigation switch, it uses Analog 3. For the microSD card, you"ll also give up Digital 12 and 4. This shield works best with the Arduino UNO and compatibles. You can use it with the Mega but it won"t be as fast since it would be using software rather than hardware SPI for both the TFT and SD card, so it"s not recommended.

Adafruit 1.8" Color TFT Shield w/microSD and Joystick comes as a fully assembled and tested shield with the display, microSD card holder and nav switch with knob 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.
