arduino mega 2560 tft lcd library factory

Spice up your Arduino project with a beautiful touchscreen display shield with built in microSD card connection. This TFT display is 2.6" diagonal and colorful (18-bit 262,000 different shades)! 240x320 pixels with individual pixel control. As a bonus, this display has a optional resistive touch panel with controller XPT2046 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 (UNO/Due/Mega 2560).

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.

Spice up your Arduino project with a beautiful large touchscreen display shield with built in microSD card connection.

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.

I struggled with a SainSmart 3.2 LCD and adapter card and then realized I had the libraries and examples in the wrong folders as well as the wrong model number. Using Sain Smart download (link below) or Henning"s code I had the same problems - because I was making the same mistakes. Here was my solution:

So, the new auto import puts libraries where they need to be. Using IDE Arduino 1.5.2 you can import the zip file ( Sketch|> Import Library|> Add Library...) the 32lcd.zip file from Sain Smart document needs to be renamed because it starts with a number so rename the zip to something like SS32lcd.zip. The automatic import of arduino 1.5.2 IDE will put the UTFT library files in the right place. You will still need to copy the example folder over to the example folder in the ....\arduino-1.5.2 IDE installed folder for them to show up in the File|>Examples|> menu. You can save your changes into your sketchbook and your customization will be preserved there.

Once you see how the auto library import install sets up the folders using the zip file you could use Henning"s rar files extracted and moved to the same places - I haven"t figured how to get the arduino import to accept a RAR file

Libraries with the same names in different folders could lead to using a different library than the one you have just downloaded or are expecting or the one you just modified but is in a different folder- be careful to watch directory structure and use new names

After using the geometry test included in the library folder UTF Geometry mentioned on #5, and using all the drivers found in the documentation included by Henning Karlsen in a .pdf doc, I couldn"t get this shield to work.

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.

This 3.5 inch TFT LCD is based on the ILI9481 LCD driver and gives a very sharp/nice picture quality and works amazing well with Arduino Uno and Arduino Mega Microcontrollers. Unfortunately this display is not a touchscreen display, however it makes it up with the included MicroSD Card Slot. No soldering, no wiring, no fuss just plug and play!

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.
