In this tutorial, you will learn how to use and set up 2.4″ Touch LCD Shield for Arduino. First, you’ll see some general information about this shield. And after learning how to set the shield up, you’ll see 3 practical projects.

The role of screens in electronic projects is very important. Screens can be of very simple types such as 7 Segment or character LCDs or more advanced models like OLEDs and TFT LCDs.

One of the most important features of this LCD is including a touch panel. If you are about to use the LCD, you need to know the coordinates of the point you touch. To do so, you should upload the following code on your Arduino board and open the serial monitor. Then touch your desired location and write the coordinates displayed on the serial monitor. You can use this coordination in any other project./*TFT LCD - TFT Touch CoordinateBased on Librery Examplemodified on 21 Feb 2019by Saeed Hosseinihttps://electropeak.com/learn/*/#include #include "TouchScreen.h"#define YP A2#define XM A3#define YM 8#define XP 9// For better pressure precision, we need to know the resistance// between X+ and X- Use any multimeter to read it// For the one we"re using, its 300 ohms across the X plateTouchScreen ts = TouchScreen(XP, YP, XM, YM, 300);void setup(void) {Serial.begin(9600);}void loop(void) {TSPoint p = ts.getPoint();if (p.z > ts.pressureThreshhold) {Serial.print("X = "); Serial.print(p.x);Serial.print("\tY = "); Serial.print(p.y);Serial.print("\tPressure = "); Serial.println(p.z);}delay(100);}

To display pictures on this LCD you should save the picture in 24bit BMP colored format and size of 240*320. Then move them to SD card and put the SD card in the LCD shield. we use the following function to display pictures. This function has 3 arguments; the first one stands for the pictures name, and the second and third arguments are for length and width coordinates of the top left corner of the picture.bmpdraw(“filename.bmp”,x,y);

Final NotesIf you want to display pictures without using an SD card, you can convert it to code and then display it. You can display even several photos sequentially without delay to create an animation. (Check this)But be aware that in this case, Arduino UNO may not be suitable (because of low processor speed). We recommend using the Arduino Mega or Arduino DUE.

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).

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 2.4 inch TFT LCD touch screen module suitable for Arduino, provides a large touchscreen display shield with a built in microSD socket offering a high resolution colourful display to your Arduino.

2.4 Inch Touch Screen TFT Display Shield adds a touch up to your Arduino project with a beautiful large touchscreen display shield with built-in micro SD card connection. This TFT display is big (2.4 diagonal) bright and colorful! 240320 pixels with individual pixel control. It has way more resolution than a black and white 12864 display.

That means you can use digital pins 2, 3 and analog 4 and 5. Pin 12 is available if not using the micro SD5V compatible, use with 3.3V or 5V logicFor Arduino UNO R3 MEGA2560

Note: The following picture is the connection diagram of the 2.8-inch TFT screen and Arduino uno, but this product is connected in exactly the same way.

If the Arduino board has an ICSP interface, set the SPI Config switch on the display module to the ICSP direction (by default) (the company"s Arduino UNO motherboard has an ICSP interface, just plug it in directly.).

This product uses the same LCD control chip and touch panel control chip as the 3.5-inch TFT screen of the same series of our company, so the code is completely compatible. The following takes 3.5-inch TFT as an example to introduce.

LCD_Show can display colorful patterns with different shapes and times. LCD_ShowBMP is for displaying the picture in BMP, and LCD_Touch is for using the touching function.

The display controller used in this product is ILI9486, and we need to initialize the controller through the SPI communication protocol, and the initialization functions are written in LCD_Driver.cpp.

The function functions related to the screen display are written in LCD_GUI.cpp. The function of each function and the parameters passed are explained in the source code. You can call it directly when you need to use it.

Before using LCD_ShowBMP to display pictures, first copy the pictures in the PIC folder in the data to the root directory of the SD card (you should understand that in the root directory, that is to save the pictures directly to the SD card, do not put them in any subfolders folder.).

Here is an explanation. This demo shows that the BMP picture first reads the picture data in the BMP format in the SD card through the SPI protocol, and then displays the data as an image.

These functions are all written in LCD_Bmp.cpp. In fact, the image data in BMP format with a specific file name is read from the SD card, and then the display function written by us is called to re-express the data as an image.

No matter which platform this method is on, the principle is similar. Interested friends can check the relevant information and study the relevant code carefully.

In fact, you can also use Image2Lcd image modulo software to convert images of different sizes and formats into array data, and then use the functions we wrote to display them.

The data sheets of all control chips are given in the information for your reference. If you want to know more about why the underlying functions are written like this, go to the data sheets and look at them!

Note: The following picture is the connection diagram of the 2.8-inch TFT screen and XNUCLEO-F103RB, but this product is connected in exactly the same way.

The demos are developed based on the HAL library. Download the program, find the STM32 program file directory, and open STM32\XNUCLEO-F103RB\lcd4in-demo\MDK-ARM\ lcd4in-demo.uvprojx.

This product uses the same LCD control chip and touch panel control chip as the 3.5-inch TFT screen of the same series of our company, so the code is completely compatible. The following takes 3.5-inch TFT as an example to introduce.

After running the demo, it displays some characters and patterns at first, then displays four pictures, and finally displays the touch sketchpad function. Actually, three projects in the Arduino platform code are integrated in the main function, we place the three main functions in sequence and place TP_DrawBoard(); in an infinite loop to achieve the above functions.

Before using LCD_ShowBMP to display pictures, copy the pictures in the PIC folder in the data to the root directory of the SD card, and then insert the SD card into the SD card slot on the back of the screen to start the download program verification.

It should be noted here that the SD card should be in the FAT format, and the picture should be 480*320 pixels with 24-bit color depth and BMP format.

In fact, you can also use Image2Lcd image modulo software to convert images of different sizes and formats into array data, and then use the functions we wrote to display them.

The data sheets of all control chips are given in the information for your reference. If you want to know more about why the underlying functions are written like this, go to the data sheets and look at them!

Thanks for the reply. I had searched through this forum. many of the data is for 2.4 inch TFT Touchscreen interface with UNO and mega only. one of the search result tells that the Arduino due is 3.3V and 2.4 inch TFT is 5V compatible. Some result tells that Arduino due can interface with 2.4 inch TFT. So i am confused in it. Before buying the boards and i have to confirm that the Arduino due can interface with 2.4 inch tft touchscreen Lcd shield?
