open smart tft lcd shield library factory
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.
Spice up your Arduino project with a beautiful large touchscreen display shield with built in microSD card connection. This TFT display is big (5" diagonal) bright (12 white-LED backlight) and colorfu 480x272 pixels with individual pixel control. As a bonus, this display has a optional resistive touch panel attached on screen by default.
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).
This display shield has a controller built into it with RAM buffering, so that almost no work is done by the microcontroller. You can connect more sensors, buttons and LEDs.
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!
For 5 inch screen,the high current is needed.But the current of arduino uno or arduino mega board is low, an external 5V power supply is needed. Refer to the image shows the external power supply position on shield ER-AS-RA8875.
As you know OPEN-SMART TFT display is a shield-type display for Arduino UNO and Mega. So The pin configurations are pre-fixed and can’t be changed. Download the modified MCUFRIEND_kbv Arduino library for using the TFT display and the TouchScreen library for controlling the touch screen.
From the above picture, we can see an LM75 temperature sensor on the back of the TFT display. Download the LM75 library from GitHub for using the LM75 temperature sensor provided in the TFT shield.
This 2.0”LCD display adopts T7789V driver chip and has 320*240 color pixels (RGB565). It uses IPS TFT display and can display 18-bit color(16-bit is basically used). The module performs excellently in displaying color bitmap. Besides, there is an onboard MicroSD card slot for displaying more pictures. There are two connection ways for this module: pin headers and GDI. Only one fpc cable is needed when working with main-cotnrollers with GDI, which greatly reduces the complexity of wiring.
This is a 3.2 inch TFT touch screen expansion board using standard Shield interface and it has good compatibility. It integrates a 3.2-inch touch screen, I2C temperature sensor, TF card holder, level conversion circuit, and the secondary development is easy.IF with GPRS module, you can design your Arduino phone. IF with NFC reader module, you can create access control systems with the photos show. IF with voltage and current sensor, you can make oscilloscope.
Begin by carefully starting the rear connector of the TFT shield onto the Arduino Uno/Mega. Go slowly and ensure that all pins are inserted correctly and are straight.
In order to use 3.2″ TFT lcd Shield , We must have the libraries. So you can download Adafruit-GFX-Library and MCUFRIEND kbv install the library by extracting that zipped file in the library folder as shown below.
Open the folder “MCUFRIEND_kbv” into your directory: “C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\libraries” , And Open MCUFRIEND_kbv H file . To do some minor edits to H file you can use Notepad++ download it here.
