uno 2.2 tft display price

The ILI9341 TFT module contains a display controller with the same name: ILI9341. It’s a color display that uses SPI interface protocol and requires 4 or 5 control pins, it’s low cost and easy to use. The resolution of this TFT display is 240 x 320 which means it has 76800 pixels. This module works with 3.3V only and it doesn’t support 5V (not 5V tolerant).

The ILI9341 TFT display board which is shown in the circuit diagram above has 14 pins, the first 9 pins are for the display and the other 5 pins are for the touch module.

So, the display side pins which numbered from 1 to 9 are (from left to right): VCC (5V), GND (ground), CS (chip select), RST (reset), DC (or D/C: data/command), MOSI (or SDI), SCK (clock), BL (back light LED) and MISO (or SDO).

As mentioned above, the ILI9341 TFT display controller works with 3.3V only (power supply and control lines). The display module is supplied with 5V that comes from the Arduino board. This module has a built-in 3.3V regulator which supplies the display controller with 3.3V from the 5V source.

To connect the Arduino to the display module, I used voltage divider for each line which means there are 5 voltage dividers. Each voltage divider consists of 2.2k and 3.3k resistors, this drops the 5V into 3V which is sufficient.

The first library is a driver for the ILI9341 TFT display which can be installed from Arduino IDE library manager (Sketch —> Include Library —> Manage Libraries …, in the search box write “ili9341” and choose the one from Adafruit).

The ILI9341 TFT display is connected to Arduino hardware SPI module pins (clock and data), the other pins which are: CS (chip select), RST (reset) and DC (data/command) are defined as shown below:

Use this 2.2" Color TFT LCD Display to add a vibrant color display to your Raspberry Pi projects. Just wire up your display and use the SPI protocol to communicate with your TFT. This is more advanced than our Raspberry Pi LCD shields since you have to wire using a breadboard and use the fbtft Raspberry Pi Library when configuring so we recommend it for intermediate users.

For Arduino users, this display is also Arduino compatible however we recommend our 11 Pin 2.2" TFT LCD Display which can be plugged directly into an Arduino UNO or Mega so you don"t have to use a breadboard.
