arduino tft lcd screen 1.77 in stock

The Arduino TFT screen is a backlit LCD screen with headers. You can draw text, images, and shapes to the screen with the TFT library. There is an onboard micro-SD card slot on the back of the screen that can, among other things, store bitmap images for the screen to display. The screen"s headers are
designed to fit into the socket on the front of the Arduino Esplora, but it is compatible with any AVRbased Arduino (Uno, Leonardo, etc) or with the Arduino Due. The screen is 1.77" diagonal, with 160 x 128 pixel resolution. The TFT library interfaces with the screen"s controller through SPI when using the TFT library.

In electronics world today, Arduino is an open-source hardware and software company, project and user community that designs and manufactures single-board microcontrollers and microcontroller kits for building digital devices. Arduino board designs use a variety of microprocessors and controllers. The boards are equipped with sets of digital and analog input/output (I/O) pins that may be interfaced to various expansion boards (‘shields’) or breadboards (for prototyping) and other circuits.
The boards feature serial communications interfaces, including Universal Serial Bus (USB) on some models, which are also used for loading programs. The microcontrollers can be programmed using the C and C++ programming languages, using a standard API which is also known as the “Arduino language”. In addition to using traditional compiler toolchains, the Arduino project provides an integrated development environment (IDE) and a command line tool developed in Go. It aims to provide a low-cost and easy way for hobbyist and professionals to create devices that interact with their environment using sensors and actuators. Common examples of such devices intended for beginner hobbyists include simple robots, thermostats and motion detectors.
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.
The sizes are 0.96” (160×80), 1.13” (240×135), 1.3” ((240×240), 1.33” (128×128), 1.54” (240×240), 1.77” (128×160), 2.0” (240×320), 2.3” (320×240), 2.4” (240×320), 2.8” (240×320), 3.2” (240×320).
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.

Add a LCD screen to your next Arduino project. The Arduino Graphic LCD (GLCD) screen is a backlit TFT LCD screen with headers. You can draw text, images, and shapes to the screen with the GLCD library. There is an onboard micro-SD card slot on the back of the screen that can, among other things, store bitmap images for the screen to display.
The screen"s headers are designed to fit into the socket on the front of the Arduino Esplora, but it is compatible with any AVR-based Arduino (Uno, Leonardo, etc. Datasheet You can use this module with Arduino Esplora. To connect the screen to other Arduino boards, read the tutorial on this link.
NOTE: If you expensive 4-5 thick white/black line when using the LCD screen, it is due to a compatibility issue. Arduino changed one of the controllers on the LCD board recently (in all products that use the LCD), and this was incompatible with their LCD library. A fixed TFT Library is included in the nightly build of the 1.5.4 IDE. You can download this here: http://arduino.cc/en/Main/Software#toc4

There is little information on the Internet with a combination of this 1.77 inch TFT LCD work on Arduino Mega board. Most of the information is covering the 1.8 inch TFT LCD, and it is a little bit tricky to make this works since the connections on the board, and the code/driver may be different from other LCDs. We use this opportunity to explain the technology behind it besides just showing the readers its schematics. Later, we"ll show how to display both the temperature and humidity on the LCD with the DHT-11 sensor.
In a simple analogy, a computer uses a computer program, device driver, to talk to hardware like a printer and in the Arduino board, there is a microcontroller also uses some drivers to communicate with the LCD device. The communication between the microcontroller and devices can be parallel and/or serial when we look at it from the data transmission level. When we wired two LED lights with two separate I/O PINs on the board, we let the microcontroller sending the data in a parallel fashion. In the serial transmission, the data transmit one bit of data at a time, sequentially, over a communication channel called the bus. In web programming, we have the luxury of sending more complex data on a broader bandwidth, like JSON, a key-value pair data, when comparing with the low-level programming in electronics. There is a pulsing technique controlled by a clock, transmitting one bit every clock pulse. In this way, it compensates for the narrow path for data to pass through while maintaining the understanding of who is talking to whom or how to interpret the pieces of bit information that a device receives. With the clock speed, we can distinguish the data chunk out from the signal stream. It acts like traffic lights in the busiest city where all devices in the SPI bus shared the same clock as it maintains the data flow synchronized and controlled. As a result, paired its data line with a clock signal, the data is transferred synchronously. Many protocols are using this type of methods to communicate, such as SPI, and I2C. In our case, the LCD uses the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) protocol to communicate with the microcontroller on the Arduino board. Just like on the Internet, HTTP is a protocol for data communication between a web server and a client computer.
The sequence of the events in serial data transmission is initialized when the SS pin set low as in active mode for the slave device. Otherwise, it simply ignores the data sent from the master or the microcontroller on the Arduino board in this scenario since all devices on the SPI bus share the MISO, MOSI, and SCLK lines and the message arrives at the slave devices at the same time. Only the devices that the master wants to communicate have its SS pin set low. During the data transmission, the master begins to toggle the clock line up and down at speed supported by the slave device. For each clock cycle, it sends one bit on the MOSI line, and receive one bit on the MISO line. Until stopping the toggling of the clock line, the transmission is complete, and now the SS pin is returned with a high state. A reset is triggered, and the next sequence of data transmission can be started again. It looks like a controlled escalator moving people up and down in light speed!
Adafruit_ST7735 tft = Adafruit_ST7735(TFT_CS, TFT_DC, TFT_MOSI, TFT_SCLK, TFT_RST);Two constructors in this class mean that there are two ways to create the tft object. For 1.8 inch LCD, you should use the first constructor shown above. In our case, the 1.77 inch LCD requires us to use the second constructor.
I hope this article helps you set up the 1.77 inch TFT LCD successfully. Sometimes it is difficult to know which library to use when your manufacturer does not provide you with anything else except this label on the package. Remember to make sure that the background and text colors must be different to display characters or else you cannot see anything.
