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:

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.

Unlike CRT (cathode ray tube) monitors, TFT (thin film transistor) displays do not respond to faster refresh rates by the video adaptor to achieve a smoother display. For example, a CRT monitor with a low refresh rate can produce a noticeable flicker which can be irritating. Monitors can operate at different refresh rates to accomodate the capabilities of your computer and your personal preference.

However, TFT displays are designed to operate optimally at a particular refresh rate (generally 60Hz) and using a different refresh rate will result in a fuzzy display.

Windows XP introduces a new technology called ClearType which smooths the appearance of fonts by exploiting the way pixels are arranged on TFT displays. Whereas various versions of Windows (since Windows 95) have been able to “smooth” font appearance on CRT and TFT displays, ClearType significantly improves the readability of fonts. However, some people find ClearType to be indistinct.

Like CRT monitors, TFT displays can operate at many resolutions. However, unlike CRT displays, only one resolution is optimal. For example, a 15″ TFT display typically is designed to operate at 1024×768. If you operate at a lesser (800×600) or greater (1200×1024) resolution, the video driver must interpolate the pixels to the screen"s native resolution, and this is slower and fuzzier.

Modern notebooks use a 3-pin AC adaptor, with the third being earth. The earth cable interferes with TFT displays which do not have sufficient shielding. Moving the AC Adaptor away from the monitor may reduce the shimmer effect. This may be tested by running the notebook on battery to determine if the shimmer stops.

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.

Hi guys, over the past few tutorials, we have been discussing TFT displays, how to connect and use them in Arduino projects, especially the 1.8″ Colored TFT display. In a similar way, we will look at how to use the 1.44″ TFT Display (ILI9163C) with the Arduino.

The ILI9163C based 1.44″ colored TFT Display, is a SPI protocol based display with a resolution of 128 x 128 pixels. It’s capable of displaying up to 262,000 different colors. The module can be said to be a sibling to the 1.8″ TFT display, except for the fact that it is much faster and has a better, overall cost to performance ratio when compared with the 1.8″ TFT display. Some of the features of the display are listed below;

TheTFT Display, as earlier stated, communicates with the microcontroller over SPI, thus to use it, we need to connect it to the SPI pins of the Arduino as shown in the schematics below.

Please note that the version of the display used for this tutorial is not available on fritzing which is the software used for the schematics, so follow the pin connection list below to further understand how each pin of the TFT display should be connected to the Arduino.

In order to allow the Arduino to work with the display, we need two Arduino libraries; the sumotoy TFT ILI9163C Arduino library which can be downloaded from this link and the popular Adafruit GFX Arduino library which we have used extensively in several tutorials. Download these libraries and install them in the Arduino IDE.

For today’s tutorial, we will be using the bigtest example which is one of the example codes that comes with the sumotoy ILI9163C Arduino library to show how to use the TFT display.

The example can be opened by going to File–>Examples–>TFT_ILI9163c–>bigtest as shown in the image below. It should be noted that this will only be available after the sumotoy library has been installed.

Next, an object of the ILI9163c library named “display” was created with CS and DC parameter as inputs but due to the kind of display being used, we need to include the pin of the Arduino to which the A0 pin of the TFT display is connected which is D8.

TFT stands for Thin-Film Transistor. TFT technology is a new standard these days for manufacturing displays, monitors, laptop screens, and other devices. TFT LCD displays can show crisp text, vivid colors, fast animations, and complex graphics.

TFT LCD monitors, also called flat panel displays, are replacing the old style cathode ray tubes (CRTs) as the displays of choice. Almost all LCD monitors today take advantage of the TFT technology.

Each pixel on a TFT display is backed by a tiny transistor. Transistors are so small these days, they need only a very minimal charge to control what they do. TFT displays are much more energy efficient than regular CRT screens that need a powerful light source.

TFT displays also allow for very fast re-drawing of the display, so the image has very little chance to flicker. This was not always the case with flat-panel monitors. Original passive matrix LCD displays were not able to refresh at very high rates and therefore could not keep up with fast moving images. A TFT monitor refresh rate is very high resulting in a display that can be used for video, gaming, and all forms of multimedia.

A TFT monitor delivers crisp text, vibrant colors, and an improved response time for multimedia applications. Today"s standard for response rate in TFT monitors is 16 ms or less.

In general, a LCD display comprises of a layer of LCD material and one or more polarizing layers made of plastic, glass, or some other material. A LCD display has a sandwich-like structure with liquid crystals filled between two glass (or plastic or polycarbonate) plates.

Liquid crystals in LCD monitor act as a dynamic polarizing agent. They change their orientation when you place a voltage across an LCD cell. The orientation of the polarizing agent under the LCD layer either blocks or passes light.

A TFT display is an advanced LCD display. A TFT monitor uses so-called thin-film transistor technology to project a picture on the screen. Transistors in a TFT display are used to change the orientation of the polarizing agent.A typical 17-inch TFT monitor has about 1.3 million pixels and 1.3 million transistors. The following text explains TFT in a greater detail...

When you look at a passive-LCD technology, the cells act as capacitors. When you charge a cell, the liquid crystal flips to one position. When you stop supplying charge to the cell, it voluntarily bleeds off its voltage and the liquid crystal slowly twists back to its original position.

Passive LCD panels cannot quickly change the orientation of the crystal. Well, it is quick, but not quick enough to display fast-moving graphics. To overcome this slowness, engineers came up with active-LCD technology. Active-LCD displays use transistors to actively change the orientation of crystals. That is where TFT comes from. T in TFT for transistor. This method allows for faster control of the LCD cell but is also more complex.

While passive-LCD displays start to blur with images moving faster than 8 to 15 frames/sec, TFT displays can display full-motion video and graphics because they use fast switching transistors.

Now that we know how a LCD works and what it behind TFT, we can start talking about color. Each pixel in a color TFT LCD is subdivided into three subpixels. One of the subpixels is capable of producing red, the other one green, and the last one blue color. Red, green, and blue are the basic colors. Any other color can be produced by mixing up these three. One set of RGB subpixels is equal to one pixel.

Old TFT displays and the small ones in simple applications such as calculators are reflective TFT. A reflective TFT display has no backlight. The polarizing agent at the rear of the TFT display is simply a mirror layer behind the TFT panel. The agent merely reflects incoming light from the front of the display. You need to be in a well-lit room to be able to read this type of display.

The next step in a TFT LCD design was to add a light source to it. More advanced TFT displays have added sidelights or front lights to these displays. Sidelights and front lights are virtually the same as backlights. The difference is just the position of the light. Front lights sit on the side or slightly in front of the TFT layers. They are designed so that the light they produce shines through the TFT panel and bounces off the reflective polarizing agent back through the display.

A transmissive TFT uses a backlight. Most TFT LCD panels today are designed with a backlight. The source of the light is mounted at the rear side of the LCD panel and shines light towards your eyes through the TFT panel"s polarizing medium (liquid crystal). Small displays, such as cell phones or calculators, use light source that is placed along the sides of the display.

The common TFT-display backlight is the CCFL (cold-cathode fluorescent lamp). CCFLs are similar to fluorescent light tubes that you commonly find in offices and homes. Their advantage is that they are small, inexpensive, replaceable, and cheap.

The polarizing medium in a TFT that transmits or blocks the backlight is clear, so any light shining on the display from the front competes with the backlight. If the light source shining on the front of the TFT display is strong enough, such as sun on a sunny day, it simply overpowers your laptop TFT display"s backlight and the display image is washed out. A reflective TFT display is usually a better choice for applications with high ambient light.

LED technology has only recently achieved the white light necessary to illuminate these panels. LEDs are the choice these days because they are stable over temperature ranges, durable, and very energy efficient. That is why if you buy a laptop with a TFT LED back-lighted display, it is possible that it will go for as much as 8 hours with your battery.

In order to follow the market tread, Orient Display engineers have developed several Arduino TFT LCD displays and Arduino OLED displays which are favored by hobbyists and professionals.

Although Orient Display provides many standard small size OLED, TN and IPS Arduino TFT displays, custom made solutions are provided with larger size displays or even with capacitive touch panel.

Flicker Safe reduces invisible flickering on the screen, which helps reduce eye strain. It provides a comfortable working environment for a long time.
