2 inch 262k-color qvga tft lcd screen pinout free sample

A 2.4” TFT LCD module consists of a bright backlight (4 white LEDs) and a colourful 240X320 pixels display. It also features individual RGB pixel control giving a much better resolution than the black and white displays. A resistive touch screen comes pre-installed with the module as a bonus and hence you can easily detect your finger presses anywhere on the screen.

The TFT comes with an auto-reset circuit which gets active on every breakout. However, a user can reset the module using this pin also, in case setup is not resetting clean.

Resistive Touch Pins – Y+, X+, Y-, and X- are the 4 resistive touch pins which require analog pins to read and determine touch pins. Their overlay is fixed at the top of the module which makes them electrically separate from the TFT. They can be used is 8-bit as well as SPI mode.

The 2.4” TFT LCD module supports many modes. However, two of them are very popular among users – “SPI mode” and “8-bit mode”. The display contains pins on both sides required for a mode and a user can switch easily between them by simply rewiring the display. It should be noted that only one mode can be used at a time.

The 74LVX245 chip is responsible for interfacing the display with MCU/MPU; it provides fast level shifting so that the user can work on both the logic levels. All the pins are 3.5V logic level compatible. However, if there is an output, the level goes at 3.3V.

A 2.4” TFT module has a very flexible usage. It is compatible with all your DIY projects where you want to add a bright, colourful, and touchscreen enabled display.

As a 2inch IPS display module with a resolution of 240 * 320, it uses an SPI interface for communication. The LCD has an internal controller with basic functions, which can be used to draw points, lines, circles, and rectangles, and display English, Chinese as well as pictures.

The 2inch LCD uses the PH2.0 8PIN interface, which can be connected to the Raspberry Pi according to the above table: (Please connect according to the pin definition table. The color of the wiring in the picture is for reference only, and the actual color shall prevail.)

The example we provide is based on STM32F103RBT6, and the connection method provided is also the corresponding pin of STM32F103RBT6. If you need to transplant the program, please connect according to the actual pin.

The LCD supports 12-bit, 16-bit, and 18-bit input color formats per pixel, namely RGB444, RGB565, and RGB666 three color formats, this demo uses RGB565 color format, which is also a commonly used RGB format.

For most LCD controllers, the communication mode of the controller can be configured, usually with an 8080 parallel interface, three-wire SPI, four-wire SPI, and other communication methods. This LCD uses a four-wire SPI communication interface, which can greatly save the GPIO port, and the communication speed will be faster.

2.We use Dev libraries by default. If you need to change to BCM2835 or WiringPi libraries ,please open RaspberryPi\c\Makefile and modify lines 13-15 as follows:

The fill color of a certain window in the image buffer: the image buffer part of the window filled with a certain color, usually used to fresh the screen into blank, often used for time display, fresh the last second of the screen.

Write Chinese string: in the image buffer, use (Xstart Ystart) as the left vertex, write a string of Chinese characters, you can choose character font, font foreground color, font background color of the GB2312 encoding

2. The module_init() function is automatically called in the INIT () initializer on the LCD, but the module_exit() function needs to be called by itself

Python has an image library PIL official library link, it do not need to write code from the logical layer like C, can directly call to the image library for image processing. The following will take 1.54inch LCD as an example, we provide a brief description for the demo.

The first argument is a tuple of four elements. (20,10) is the coordinate value in the upper left corner of the rectangle, and (70,60) is the coordinate value in the lower right corner of the rectangle. Fill =" WHITE" means BLACK inside, and outline="BLACK" means the color of the outline is black.

The first parameter is a tuple of 2 elements, with (40, 50) as the left vertex, the font is Font2, and the fill is the font color. You can directly make fill = "WHITE", because the regular color value is already defined Well, of course, you can also use fill = (128,255,128), the parentheses correspond to the values of the three RGB colors so that you can precisely control the color you want. The second sentence shows Micro Snow Electronics, using Font3, the font color is white.
