adafruit 2.8 inch tft display quotation

Add some sizzle to your Arduino project with a beautiful large touchscreen display shield with built in microSD card connection and a capacitive touchscreen. This TFT display is big (2.8" diagonal) bright (4 white-LED backlight) and colorful (18-bit 262,000 different shades)! 240x320 pixels with individual pixel control. It has way more resolution than a black and white 128x64 display. As a bonus, this display has a capacitive touchscreen attached to it already, so you can detect finger presses anywhere on the screen.

This shield is the capacitive version as opposed to the resistive touchscreen we also sell. This touchscreen doesn"t require pressing down on the screen with a stylus, and has a nice glossy glass cover. It is a single-touch display.

This shield uses SPI for the display and SD card and is easier to use with UNO, Mega & Leonardo Arduino"s. The capacitive touchscreen controller uses I2C but you can share the I2C bus with other I2C devices.

This display shield has a controller built into it with RAM buffering, so that almost no work is done by the microcontroller. This shield needs fewer pins than our v1 shield, so you can connect more sensors, buttons and LEDs: 5 SPI pins for the display, 2 shared I2C pins for the touchscreen controller and another pin for uSD card if you want to read images off of it.

The display uses digital pins 13-9. Touchscreen controller requires I2C pins SDA and SCL. microSD pin requires digital #4. That means you can use digital pins 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8 and analog 0-5. Pin 4 is available if not using the microSD

This capacitive touchscreen LCD TFT display is big (2.8" diagonal) bright (4 white-LED backlight) and colorful! 240x320 pixels with individual RGB pixel control, this has way more resolution than a black and white 128x64 display. As a bonus, this display has a capacitive single-touch touchscreen attached to it already, so you can detect finger presses anywhere on the screen. (We also have a resistive touchscreen version AF1770 of this display breakout)

This display has a controller built into it with RAM buffering, so that almost no work is done by the microcontroller. The display can be used in two modes: 8-bit and SPI. For 8-bit mode, you"ll need 8 digital data lines and 4 or 5 digital control lines to read and write to the display (12 lines total). SPI mode requires only 5 pins total (SPI data in, data out, clock, select, and d/c) but is slower than 8-bit mode. In addition, 2 I2C pins are required for the touch screen controller.

We wrapped up this display into an easy-to-use breakout board, with SPI connections on one end and 8-bit on the other. Both are 3-5V compliant with high-speed level shifters so you can use with any microcontroller. If you"re going with SPI mode, you can also take advantage of the onboard MicroSD card socket to display images. (The microSD card not included, but any will work)

Hi, I have just received my 2.8inch TFT LCD shield purchased from Banggood, China. In the package there was just the TFT shield and packing...no paperwork or disc/files

However, the screen remained blank and the expected text, patterns, displays shown in the video did not appear. I then repeated this procedure for various videos from YouTube but again the screen glowed blank and refused to display any graphics or text.

So...my question for the forum is...How can I identify whether the problem lies with the TFT shield, the INO files and sketches that I am loading or is it something else.

Great for gaming, the PiTFT Plus 2.8 Raspberry Pi Touchscreen has the flexibility to be used as a console, X window port, or for displaying images and videos. This TFT LCD resistive touchscreen, with a 2.8inch screen, works with the 2×20 connector, and fits neatly on top of later generation Raspberry Pis.

Remaining issue: After rotating the PiTFT 90 or 270 degree to be landscape, the OctoScreen show that all the features are displayed properly, but when I touch them, the buttons seem to still think the screen is in the portrait 0 degree orientation. So far, this article is what I found regarding to how HDMI and the touch screen rotations are two different things. I don"t know if this is the PiTFT driver issue or a configuration in OctoScreen. Any insight or able to duplicate my problem will be helpful. Thanks.

This colour 2.8” TFT display has 4 bright white LED backlight and 240 x 320 pixels with individual RGB pixel control. It has a resistive touchscreen to detect finger presses anywhere on the screen. The built-in controller has RAM buffering to take the workload away from the microcontroller. This display board has two modes: 8-bit and SPI.
