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 or capacitive touch panel with controller, attached 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 (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!

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.

The component TFT supports a 2.8 inch TFT display with a resolution of 240*320 pixels.The display is not soldered on the board, but there is a 14 pin connector for a TFT display. The ILI9341 has been tested.

There are four sample projects for the Arduino IDE which could be downloaded: TFT-Box3D (download here), TFT-Graphic-Test (download here), TFT-HelloWorld (download here) and TFT-HowToUseFonts (download here). And there are two examples for the Arduino IDE for using the touch functionality which could be downloaded: TFT-TouchBtn (download here) and TFT-TouchDraw (download here).

There are two dip switches for the component: SW311 and SW314. If you want to use the TFT display all switches on SW311 have to be on on. If you additonally want to use the touchpad of the display all switch of SW314 have to be on. The following two tables shows the functions and the potential conflicts with other components

After the download it"s necessary to add both libraries to your Arduino IDE. Open Sketch > Include Library > Add .ZIP Library ... and select the downloaded archive. Do it for both libraries.

The purpose of this guide is to get your 0.96″ color LCD display successfully operating with your Arduino, so you can move forward and experiment and explore further types of operation with the display. This includes installing the Arduino library, making a succesful board connection and running a demonstration sketch.

Although you can use the display with an Arduino Uno or other boad with an ATmega328-series microcontroller – this isn’t recommended for especially large projects. The library eats up a fair amount of flash memory – around 60% in most cases.

So if you’re running larger projects we recommend using an Arduino Mega or Due-compatible board due to the increased amount of flash memory in their host microcontrollers.

(As the display uses the ST7735S controller IC, you may be tempted to use the default TFT library included with the Arduino IDE – however it isn’t that reliable. Instead, please follow the instructions below).

Please check that the library has been installed – to do this, select the Sketch > Include Libraryoption in the IDE and scroll down the long menu until you see “ER-TFTM0.96-1” as shown below:

The display uses the SPI data bus for communication, and is a 3.3V board. You can use it with an Arduino or other 5V board as the logic is tolerant of higher voltages.

The library used is based on the uTFT library by Henning Karlsen. You can find all the drawing and other commands in the user manual – so download the pdf and enjoy creating interesting displays.

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.

In this Arduino project, a TFT display will be used, which is essentially another screen like an OLED or a common LCD display to show information, graphics or animations as well. Since you will just be getting introduced to this TFT display module which is made into a shield form to perfectly fit an Arduino Uno, the sketch which we will be using will display a simple demo program to show its quality, resolution and ability to show multiple colours as well. Additionally, this module has a resistive touch feature, where the whole screen can be used to play games or to work as an automation system control with interactive buttons. However, this is not a capacitive touch screen so it will defer in sensitivity when compared to your phone, as resistive touch screens rely on mechanical pressure as opposed to natural conduction from your body. For this project, here are the components which you will need:1 2.8" 240x320 TFT LCD Display Module with Resistive Touch

This project"s circuit is by far, the easiest to mount as this shield comes prepared to be fitted onto an Arduino Uno. Each pin on this shield should go into every pin on the Arduino perfectly and I recommend that you line it up carefully before applying pressure to press the display down into each of the pins. However, this LCD module also has a 6-pin ICSP (In-Circuit Serial Programmer) header which matches the male ICSP header pins on the Arduino, thus, ensuring that you match those pins up as well is critical to making sure that you mount this module correctly. Remember, don"t use too much force on the module as it may damage the pins or the display itself, so be careful! Then, once this module has been mounted on to your Arduino board, plug in your USB cable and you are now ready to go. For this project, you will not be importing files into the SD card, so taking out the SD card from this module is not necessary.

With DisplayModule"s DMTFTLibrary, the software part of this project is made 10x easier due to no manual coding needed for each function performed. DisplayModule has also already written the main part of the code, so that will save you some time if you need to use this code again. Firstly, the code starts by defining some libraries used: we declare the SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) library for communication between the TFT and the Arduino, the DMTFTIli934 library, which is used to drive the TFT with an Arduino and the BubbleDemo library, which is basically the library which stores all the code for this program. Then, we define some pins which aid in the software communication to the TFT display. We mention the TFT chip select pin on pin 10, the SD chip select pin on pin 8, the flash chip select pin on pin 6 and the touch screen chip select pin on pin 4. After that, we now add in a line where we declare the TFT being used with the chip select pin on pin 10 and the data/command (DC) pin being on pin 9 and on the following line, we mention that the bubble demo program will be used, which will consume the whole TFT display"s length and width. Now, thevoid setupsection is present, where we set theTFT_CS,T_CS,SD_CSand theF_CSpins as output pins, so that data will be fed into the Arduino from the TFT display. Next, we declare the same set of pins high, meaning that they will be turned on, active and performing their individual function during this sketch. We then also initialise the display to start it up, which transitions us to thevoid loopsection, with one command only. This command is to basically run thebubbleDemoprogram for 750 loops with a delay time of 20 milliseconds. Now, the software part has been already done and your program should be up and running fine!
