The 3.2 inch TFT LCD module is a special design for Raspberry Pi for portable application. It features a 3.2” display with 320x240 16bit color pixels and resistive touch screen. The LCD is well mated with Pi board and interface with Pi via the high speed SPI port, and support console, X windows, displaying images or video etc. It also provides 4 press buttons for user defined functions.

RPi LCD needs to use a SPI interface, but in the original image file of Raspberry Pi, the displayer is driven via a HDMI port. So the original image is not applicable for RPi LCD, and you should install the LCD driver to your Pi or use the Ready-to-use image file provided by Sainsmart,click here.

Download the LCD driver and extract it to your Raspbian OS (e.g. copy the driver to your Pi by sftpor using U disk). Then run the following command via putty:

This LCD can be calibrated using a program called xinput_calibrator which is pre-installed on the offer image. However, it was not pre-installed on original Raspbian OS. So in this case, you should get and install the program manually with

After running these commands, there will be a prompt for four-point calibration shown in the LCD screen. Click the points one by one to finish the touch calibration. Then, the new calibration data will be displayed in the terminal, as shows below. Please get these data for future use.

Reason: The hooks on the backight of ER-TFT032-3.1 is always complained by most customers for inconvenient assembly. So we cancel the hooks in the new version of ER-TFT032-3.2.That"s the only difference for these two versions.

ER-TFT032-3.2 is 240x320 dots 3.2" color tft lcd module display with ILI9341 controller and optional 4-wire resistive touch panel and 3.2 inch capactive touch panel with controller FT6236,superior display quality,super wide viewing angle and easily controlled by MCU such as 8051, PIC, AVR, ARDUINO ARM and Raspberry PI.It can be used in any embedded systems,industrial device,security and hand-held equipment which requires display in high quality and colorful image.It supports 8080 8/16-bit parallel,3/4-wire serial interface. FPC with zif connector is easily to assemble or remove.Lanscape mode is also available.

Of course, we wouldn"t just leave you with a datasheet and a "good luck!".Here is the link for 3.2"TFT Touch Shield with Libraries, Examples.Schematic Diagram for Arduino Due,Mega 2560 and Uno . For 8051 microcontroller user,we prepared the detailed tutorial such as interfacing, demo code and development kit at the bottom of this page.

※ Price Increase NotificationThe TFT glass cell makers such as Tianma,Hanstar,BOE,Innolux has reduced or stopped the production of small and medium-sized tft glass cell from August-2020 due to the low profit and focus on the size of LCD TV,Tablet PC and Smart Phone .It results the glass cell price in the market is extremely high,and the same situation happens in IC industry.We deeply regret that rapidly rising costs for glass cell and controller IC necessitate our raising the price of tft display.We have made every attempt to avoid the increase, we could accept no profit from the beginning,but the price is going up frequently ,we"re now losing a lot of money. We have no choice if we want to survive. There is no certain answer for when the price would go back to the normal.We guess it will take at least 6 months until these glass cell and semiconductor manufacturing companies recover the production schedule.

ER-TFT032-2 is 240x320 dots 3.2 " color tft lcd module display with ILI9320 controller and optional 4-wire resistive touch panel,superior display quality,super wide viewing angle and easily controlled by MCU such as 8051, PIC, AVR, ARDUINO ARM and Raspberry PI.It can be used in any embedded systems,industrial device,security and hand-held equipment which requires display in high quality and colorful image.It supports 8080 16-bit parallel interface. .FPC is soldering type,there is no need for zif connector.Lanscape mode is also available.

SainSmart 3.2" TFT LCD Kit for Arduino ga2560 R3 Bundle New and Sealed The SainSmart Mega 2560 is a microcontroller board based on the ATmega2560. It contains everything needed…

I have been scouring the web to find all different bits of information for the Sainsmart 2.8 inch touch display with no avail on instructions on how to actually make it work.

SainSmart 2.8" TFT LCD Display is a LCD touch screen module. It has 40pins interface and SD card and Flash reader design. It is a powerful and mutilfunctional module for your project.The Screen include a controller ILI9325, it"s a support 8/16bit data interface , easy to drive by many MCU like arduino families，STM32 ,AVR and 8051. It is designed with a touch controller in it . The touch IC is XPT2046 , and touch interface is included in the 40 pins breakout. It is the version of product only with touch screen and touch controller.

Voltage type: 5v or 3v voltage input voltage，input is selectable. Because TFT can only work under 3.3 V voltage, so when the input voltage VIN is 5V, need through the 3.3 V voltage regulator IC step down to 3.3V , when the input voltage of 3.3 V, you need to use the zero resistance make J2 short , is equivalent to not through the voltage regulator IC for module and power supply directly.(Click here)

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!
