Add some dazzle to your project with this 1.45" diagonal graphic TFT display module. This small display packs 128x128 full-color pixels into one square inch of active display area. It is a great choice when you need color and sharp detail while using minimal front panel space. At less than 5 grams, the display adds very little weight to handheld devices.

Thanks to the integrated Sitronix ST7735S or compatible controller, a single 3.3v source powers everything. The SPI host interface allows full read and write control of the display while using only 10 pins. The single bright white LED backlight has anode (A,+) and cathode (K, -) pins brought out on the Flexible Printed Circuit (FPC) tail. To connect, all you need is a standard 10-conductor, 0.5 mm ZIF socket such as Omron Electronics

While the SPI interface requires only a few lines to control this TFT LCD module, it is still possible to transfer data at a rate that supports 20 FPS (Frames Per Second) screen updates -- fast enough to play a full-motion video as shown in our videos.

To get started, download the datasheet and SPI sample code. And of course Crystalfontz is always here to help you when you integrate this display into your application.

TFT Displays provide rich colors, detailed images, and bright graphics with their full-color RGB mode. TFT displays are perfect for applications including industrial instruments, coffee machines, automation, GPS navigator, energy control, and medical devices.

A number of display devices like LEDs, 7-segments, character and graphic displays can be attached to microcontrollers to create an interface between the user and an electronic system for displaying data or controlling the system. Sometimes you may need to add colorful images or graphics to your project, that’s where the TFT color displays come in handy.

TFT LCD is a variant of a liquid-crystal display (LCD) that uses thin-film-transistor (TFT) technology to improve image qualities such as addressability and contrast. In this tutorial we are going to show how to interface a 1.44″ TFT color display based on the ST7735 driver. It has 128×128 color pixels and can display full 16-bit color.

This is the type of display am using but they come with various pin configurations. However all the displays will have the major pins stated below and should be connected to the Arduino board as follows:

This TFT display uses 3.3V but comes with an on board voltage regulator therefore the VCC can be connected to the Arduino 5V. However for best practice it’s better to use the 3.3V.

Most code Libraries for this TFT ST7735 display with Arduino are programmed with the SDA and SCL pins connected to Arduino pins 11 and 13 respectively. Make sure you don’t change that order otherwise the display may not work.

There are a number of libraries that have been developed to run the TFT ST7735 color display using Arduino but I found the Adafruit-ST7735-Librarythe best to use. Make sure you have this library installed in your IDE.

tft.fillRoundRect(x,y,w,h,r,t); function draws a filled Rectangle with r radius round corners in x and y location and w width and h height and t color.

There are many other functions and commands which you can use to program the TFT color display but the above are the commonest. You will meet many more with practice.

Before we can write our personal code we need to first test the display using the already made code examples from the installed library. This is done by going to File>Examples>Adafruit ST7735 and ST7789 Library. Then you can select any of the examples and upload it to the setup to see if the display works fine.In the diagram below I have shown how to access the graphics test code.

This 1.4" diagonalST7735Sdisplay has an integrated controller, and can take images formatted as 128(RGB)*128 pixel, 128x128 full color graphic TFT module.
