3.2 tft lcd arduino mega factory

Contact your seller on e-Bay. Ask him what display it is supposed to emulate. Look in the Supported Display file that comes with UTFT/URTouch libraries in the documents folder. See if that display is listed and use its definition in your programs.

I am a newbie into the arduino world. I would like to display the output data from my sensor onto the LCD, however I ve been doing lots of research but I cannot find out how to connect my LCD to the MEGA chip.

The display has 17 pins and the MEGA has 18 pins. Ive tried all combinations but the screen stays off when i run the example code given in the arduino programmer.

Spice up your Arduino project with a beautiful large touchscreen display shield with built in microSD card connection. This TFT display is big (3.2" diagonal) bright (5 white-LED backlight) and colorful (18-bit 262,000 different shades)! 240x320 pixels with individual pixel control. As a bonus, this display has a optional resistive touch panel with controller XPT2046 attached by default and a optional capacitive touch panel with controller FT6206 attached by default, so you can detect finger presses anywhere on the screen and doesn"t require pressing down on the screen with a stylus and has nice glossy glass cover.

The shield is fully assembled, tested and ready to go. No wiring, no soldering! Simply plug it in and load up our library - you"ll have it running in under 10 minutes! Works best with any classic Arduino (UNO/Due/Mega 2560).

Of course, we wouldn"t just leave you with a datasheet and a "good luck!" - we"ve written a full open source graphics library at the bottom of this page that can draw pixels, lines, rectangles, circles and text. We also have a touch screen library that detects x,y and z (pressure) and example code to demonstrate all of it. The code is written for Arduino but can be easily ported to your favorite microcontroller!

If you"ve had a lot of Arduino DUEs go through your hands (or if you are just unlucky), chances are you’ve come across at least one that does not start-up properly.The symptom is simple: you power up the Arduino but it doesn’t appear to “boot”. Your code simply doesn"t start running.You might have noticed that resetting the board (by pressing the reset button) causes the board to start-up normally.The fix is simple,here is the solution.

Building a Wireless Weather Station is a great learning experience. When you finish building this project, you will have a better understanding of how wireless communications works, how sensors work, and how powerful the Arduino platform can be. With this project as a base and the experience gained, you will be able to easily build more complex projects in the future.

In the Weather Station that we are going to build, we are going to measure Temperature and Humidity in two locations and display the current date and time. Building a weather station is extremely easy. But can a maker build a unit with a color TFT display and features that match those of a commercial unit? The answer is YES! With the power of open source software and hardware, one can build this impressive weather station easily!

Thetransmittermeasures the temperature and the humidity, and sends the data wirelessly to the receiver. Thereceivermeasures the temperature and the humidity, receives the data from the remote sensor and displays everything in big color TFT display.

The cost of the project is around 40$.You can reduce the cost of the project by 5$ if you use the Arduino Mega instead of the Arduino Due. I chose to use the Arduino Due for the receiver because it is very fast and it has a lot of memory. This is going to be very useful in the future as we add more features to the project.

The connection with Arduino is extremely easy. We connect the sensor pin with the + sign to the 5V or the 3.3V output of the Arduino. We connect the sensor pin with the - sign to GROUND. Lastly, we connect the OUT pin to any digital pin of the Arduino.

The NRF24L01 module is a low cost bi-directional transceiver module. The cost of it is less than 3$! It operates at the 2.4GHz band and it can achieve at a data rate of 2Mbits! Impressive isn’t it? It uses the SPI interface in order to communicate with Arduino, so it is very easy to use with it. We have to connect 7 of the 8 pins of the module in order to make it work with Arduino.

Unfortunately, we can’t plug the module in the breadboard so we are going to use male-to-female wires in order to connect the module to Arduino. Pin number 1 of the module is GND. You have to connect it to Arduino Ground. The next pin is Vcc. You have to connect it to the 3.3V output of the Arduino Uno. Be careful! Do not connect it to 5V or you will destroy your module! The third pin is named CE and you can connect it to any digital pin you like. In this example I am going to connect it to digital pin 7. Pin 4 is CS and you can connect to any digital pin, as well. I am going to connect to digital pin 8. The next pin is SCK which goes to digital pin 13 of the Arduino Uno. The next pin is MOSI which goes to digital pin 11, and the last pin in MISO which goes to digital pin 12. That’s it!

We connect the output pin of the sensor to digital pin 4 of the Arduino Nano. We connect the Ground and Vcc and we are ready. All we have to do now is to connect the NRF24L01 wireless module.

In order to build the receiver, we need the following parts:An Arduino Due or a MegaA DS3231 Real Time Clock moduleA DHT22 Temperature and Humidity SensorA NRF24L01+ Wireless moduleA 3.2" Color TFT displayA breadboard7 header pinsSome wires

At first, we bend 7 header pins and we place them at some of the Arduino Due pins. We need one to Ground and one to 3.3V. We need two at the I2C pins. We need the remaining 3 to digital pins from 6 to 8. We also have to solder three wires to the hardware SPI pins of the Arduino Due pins. We need MOSI, MISO and SCK. Check the diagram carefully. We connect the wires to the header pins and we are ready to attach the display.

Connecting the DS3231VCC pin on Arduino’s 3.3V outputGND pin to Arduino’s GND andSDA (Serial Data Line) pin to Arduino’s SDA pin andSCL (Serial Clock Line) pin to Arduino’s SCL pin

Let"s take a look at the code.The first thing we have to do is to set the time to the real time clock module if it is not already set. In order to do it, enter the current date and time in thesetRTCTimefunction, uncomment thesetRTCTimecall of the function on line 54 and upload the program to Arduino. Now the time is set. But then we have to commentsetRTCTimecall of the function again and upload the program to Arduino once more.

As you can see, this project is a great demonstration of what open source hardware and software is capable of. Within a few hours one can build such an impressive project! Of course, this is a just the beginning. We can add many more features to the project. I will soon add a button, so we can display graphs, and have different modes. We can also add more sensors, data logging, internet connection and so on. We are using the Arduino Due, so we have plenty of memory to implement many more things. I would love to hear your opinion on this project. How do you want to see it evolve? Please post your comments or ideas in the comments section below!
