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.

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.

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.

For this tutorial I composed three examples. The first example is distance measurement using ultrasonic sensor. The output from the sensor, or the distance is printed on the screen and using the touch screen we can select the units, either centimeters or inches.

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.

Here’s that function which uses the ultrasonic sensor to calculate the distance and print the values with SevenSegNum font in green color, either in centimeters or inches. If you need more details how the ultrasonic sensor works you can check my particular tutorialfor that. Back in the loop section we can see what happens when we press the select unit buttons as well as the back button.

Ok next is the RGB LED Control example. If we press the second button, the drawLedControl() custom function will be called only once for drawing the graphic of that example and the setLedColor() custom function will be repeatedly called. In this function we use the touch screen to set the values of the 3 sliders from 0 to 255. With the if statements we confine the area of each slider and get the X value of the slider. So the values of the X coordinate of each slider are from 38 to 310 pixels and we need to map these values into values from 0 to 255 which will be used as a PWM signal for lighting up the LED. If you need more details how the RGB LED works you can check my particular tutorialfor that. The rest of the code in this custom function is for drawing the sliders. Back in the loop section we only have the back button which also turns off the LED when pressed.

In order the code to work and compile you will have to include an addition “.c” file in the same directory with the Arduino sketch. This file is for the third game example and it’s a bitmap of the bird. For more details how this part of the code work  you can check my particular tutorial. Here you can download that file:

Over the past year, I"ve ordered 47 of these SainSmart LCD displays. For a while, they had a good thing going, but in the Autumn of 2015, they changed their manufacturing and have utterly messed up this device. The first six that I ordered in the Summer of 2015 worked perfectly. But of the 41 devices that I"ve ordered after the change, 40% have failed right out of the box... 6 won"t power up at all, 4 have screen flicker, 2 the touch doesn"t work, 1 the LCD pixels were misaligned and 1 had a cracked screen. What happened? Besides utter lack of quality control (these displays were obviously never tested), SainSmart changed the LCD screen hardware. Instead of using the LCD screen that would fit properly on the TFT_320QVT PCB (see pictures), they chose a slightly thinner, narrower LCD screen that normally fits the TFT_320QDT PCB. (notice the one letter difference). The problem is that the new screen DOES NOT FIT properly into the pin holes on the PCB and has a nasty habit of falling off (see pics). They obviously realized this at the factory, and rather than re-ordering the correct screens, they just tried to force them to stay on with double sided tape. But that hasn"t worked well. Many of my screens had fallen off by the time I received them! But because I own a business that uses these things and I didn"t know at the time that I could find alternative suppliers for this part, my work-around was to glue them into the best position possible using a hot glue gun. What a pain! Moral of the story: Don"t order any of these from SainSmart LCDs until they have accepted they have screwed this up and fixed this problem. I suspect they will comment on this review once that has happened and I"ll make modifications to this review to let you know when the problem is fixed. Until then, BUYER BEWARE. And, any other SainSmart product that includes this 3.2" is very likely going to include this same problem - including the shield + LCD and Mega2560 + shield + LCD. That all said, when this thing works, it works really well. I am satisfied with resolution and the touch is responsive. I use it in the product that our company sells. Just don"t get it from Sainsmart - for now. There are alternative suppliers.A couple final technical notes:* The SD slot will not work with any SDHC cards. And no, you can"t reformat a larger SDHC card down to 2GB and get it to work. Won"t work. You can however get a 2GB or 4GB SD Card (not SDHC) and it"ll work fine. You may see some documentation suggesting a 2GB limitation, but it"s really 4GB as long as you don"t use a SDHC card. Did I mention, do not use SDHC? If you need to understand the difference, google "SD vs SDHC".* The screen IC driver comes in two flavors out there: SSD1289 and ILI9341. They both work, but the software configuration is slightly different. So, either use one or the other - or expect to somehow auto-detect which one connect to your Mega2560 (not possible directly) and then code for both possibilities. As far as I can tell, the SSD1289 is being phased out for the now more common ILI9341. I"ve ordered this device from a number of sites, but unfortunately they often list the item as SSD1289, but it arrives as a ILI9341. If you are new to this, my advice is to go with the ILI9341 driver. The UTFT library was updated in the Summer of 2016 to accommodate this newer driver. Another reason to pass on this Sainsmart device is that it uses the SSD1289 driver. How can you tell the difference? The model for SSD1289 is TFT_320QVT and the model for ILI9341 is TFT_320QVT_9341. Unfortunately, ads for these devices often have the wrong model number displayed!

Adafruit_ST7735 is the library we need to pair with the graphics library for hardware specific functions of the ST7735 TFT Display/SD-Card controller.

The easiest way to remedy this is by extracting the GitHub ZIP file. Place the files in a directory with the proper library name (Adafruit_GFX, Adafruit_ST7735 or SD) and zip the folder (Adafruit_GFX, Adafruit_ST7735.zip, SD.zip). Now the Arduino software can read and install the library automatically for you.

Basically, besides the obvious backlight, we tell the controller first what we are talking to with the CS pins. CS(TFT) selects data to be for the Display, and CS(SD) to set data for the SD-Card. Data is written to the selected device through SDA (display) or MOSI (SD-Card). Data is read from the SD-Card through MISO.

So when using both display and SD-Card, and utilizing the Adafruit libraries with a SainSmart display, you will need to connect SDA to MOSI, and SCL to SCLK.

Note: Adafruit displays can have different colored tabs on the transparent label on your display. You might need to adapt your code if your display shows a little odd shift. I noticed that my SainSmart display (gree tab) behaves best with the code for the black tab – try them out to see which one works best for yours.

#define sclk 4 // SainSmart: SCL#define mosi 5 // SainSmart: SDA#define cs 6 // SainSmart: CS#define dc 7 // SainSmart: RS/DC#define rst 8 // SainSmart: RES

#define sclk 13 // SainSmart: SCL#define mosi 11 // SainSmart: SDA#define cs 10 // SainSmart: CS#define dc 9 // SainSmart: RS/DC#define rst 8 // SainSmart: RES

The SD-Card needs to be FAT-16 or FAT-32 formatted, single partition, and the BMP file needs to be placed in the root (ie. not in a directory or anything like that).

You can name your BMP file “parrot.bmp” or modify the Sketch to have the proper filename (in “spitftbitmap” line 70, and in “soft_spitftbitmap” line 74).
