An Arduino 8 Bit controller should drive a 320x240 pixel 16Bit colored TFT-Display ? I had a comparable TFT-display connected to an ATMega32 in 8Bit mode about 2 years ago. The display driver was an ILI9325 that supports 8Bit mode and this display works propper if the design of the board is 3.3V based. But everybody should know that the display output is quite slow and not floating due the Interface uses just 8Bit and is connected by an I/O-Port instead the memory-bus of the MCU.

Spice up your Arduino project with a beautiful touchscreen display shield with built in microSD card connection. This TFT display is 2.4" diagonal and colorful (18-bit 262,000 different shades)! 240x320 pixels with individual pixel control. As a bonus, this display has a optional capacitive touch panel and 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.

In this Arduino touch screen tutorial we will learn how to use TFT LCD Touch Screen with Arduino. You can watch the following video or read the written tutorial below.

As an example I am using a 3.2” TFT Touch Screen in a combination with a TFT LCD Arduino Mega Shield. We need a shield because the TFT Touch screen works at 3.3V and the Arduino Mega outputs are 5 V. For the first example I have the HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor, then for the second example an RGB LED with three resistors and a push button for the game example. Also I had to make a custom made pin header like this, by soldering pin headers and bend on of them so I could insert them in between the Arduino Board and the TFT Shield.

Here’s the circuit schematic. We will use the GND pin, the digital pins from 8 to 13, as well as the pin number 14. As the 5V pins are already used by the TFT Screen I will use the pin number 13 as VCC, by setting it right away high in the setup section of code.

I will use the UTFT and URTouch libraries made by Henning Karlsen. Here I would like to say thanks to him for the incredible work he has done. The libraries enable really easy use of the TFT Screens, and they work with many different TFT screens sizes, shields and controllers. You can download these libraries from his website, RinkyDinkElectronics.com and also find a lot of demo examples and detailed documentation of how to use them.

After we include the libraries we need to create UTFT and URTouch objects. The parameters of these objects depends on the model of the TFT Screen and Shield and these details can be also found in the documentation of the libraries.

So now I will explain how we can make the home screen of the program. With the setBackColor() function we need to set the background color of the text, black one in our case. Then we need to set the color to white, set the big font and using the print() function, we will print the string “Arduino TFT Tutorial” at the center of the screen and 10 pixels  down the Y – Axis of the screen. Next we will set the color to red and draw the red line below the text. After that we need to set the color back to white, and print the two other strings, “by HowToMechatronics.com” using the small font and “Select Example” using the big font.

In order the code to work and compile you will have to include an addition “.c” file in the same directory with the Arduino sketch. This file is for the third game example and it’s a bitmap of the bird. For more details how this part of the code work  you can check my particular tutorial. Here you can download that file:

This module is designed to plug directly into Arduino UNO R3 (or its clone) boards. It is compatible with CH340 and Atmega16u2 version boards, as well as Mega 2560. This LCD shield may also work with other boards, but the compatibility can"t be guaranteed.

The 2.4 Inch TFT LCD Touch Screen LCD Display Module for Arduino is a beautiful large touchscreen display shield with built in microSD card connection. The LCD has excellent vivid color contrast. This TFT display is big (2.4″ diagonal) bright (4 white-LED backlight) and colorful (18-bit 262,000 different shades). It has 240×320 pixels with individual pixel control which is way more resolution than a black and white 128×64 display. As a bonus, this display has a resistive touchscreen attached to it already, so you can detect finger presses anywhere on the screen.

I am working with tftlcd 2.4 inch with Arduino mega 2560 board. In this code I just want to show clock as my default or home screen. By clicking on clock at any point on screen user should get a new screen in which options of three sensors(pulse oximeter, glucose sensor and pedometer) are available. By selecting any sensor by touch, the value of that sensor will appear on screen. I also want to use Bluetooth module to send data to my mobile application. I did separate integration of all these sensors with Bluetooth module HC -06, but now I want to compile my all work. I have write a code for all this procedure which is given below:

tft.drawLine(((cos((i - 90) * 0.0174532925)) * 114 + xpos), ((sin((i - 90) * 0.0174532925)) * 114 + 120), ((cos((i - 90) * 0.0174532925)) * 100 + xpos), ((sin((i - 90) * 0.0174532925)) * 100 + 120), 0xFFE0);

tft.drawLine(((cos((i - 90) * 0.0174532925)) * 102 + xpos), ((sin((i - 90) * 0.0174532925)) * 102 + 120), ((cos((i - 90) * 0.0174532925)) * 92 + xpos), ((sin((i - 90) * 0.0174532925)) * 92 + 120), 0x0000);

tft.drawLine(((cos((i - 90) * 0.0174532925)) * 102 + xpos)+1, ((sin((i - 90) * 0.0174532925)) * 102 + 120)+1, ((cos((i - 90) * 0.0174532925)) * 92 + xpos)+1, ((sin((i - 90) * 0.0174532925)) * 92 + 120)+1, 0x0000);
