tft lcd mega shield v2 2 pinout price

Spice up your Arduino project with a beautiful touchscreen display shield with built in microSD card connection. This TFT display is 2.2" 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 Controller FT6236 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.

Using this TFT LCD Mega Expansion Shield V2.2 for Arduino MEGA the users can now directly plug the LCD shields from 3.2″ to 5″ onto the Arduino Mega board.

This shield supports 16-bit mode. Arduino Mega board has enough pins for one to use SD card and Touch function simultaneously. The shield Support: TFT 3.2” 4.3” 5.0” 7.0”

TFT01 LCD works in 3.3V so that it can not be used directly on top of the Arduino motherboard to make the TFT01 LCD compatible for use with the Arduino board. Designed this section TFT Shield, it can be directly plugged into Arduino board Using the TFT01 LCD module.

The TFT01 LCD is now supported 16-bit mode, it will not exist encounter like in 328S, only using a set of SD card interface or touch screen interface for Arduino Mega256.

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.

The next example is controlling an RGB LED using these three RGB sliders. For example if we start to slide the blue slider, the LED will light up in blue and increase the light as we would go to the maximum value. So the sliders can move from 0 to 255 and with their combination we can set any color to the RGB LED,  but just keep in mind that the LED cannot represent the colors that much accurate.

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.

Ok next is the RGB LED Control example. If we press the second button, the drawLedControl() custom function will be called only once for drawing the graphic of that example and the setLedColor() custom function will be repeatedly called. In this function we use the touch screen to set the values of the 3 sliders from 0 to 255. With the if statements we confine the area of each slider and get the X value of the slider. So the values of the X coordinate of each slider are from 38 to 310 pixels and we need to map these values into values from 0 to 255 which will be used as a PWM signal for lighting up the LED. If you need more details how the RGB LED works you can check my particular tutorialfor that. The rest of the code in this custom function is for drawing the sliders. Back in the loop section we only have the back button which also turns off the LED when pressed.

2.8"" TFT Touch Shield is an Arduino UNO/ Mega compatible multicolored TFT display with a 4-wire resistive touch-screen. It is available in an Arduino shield compatible pinout for attachment. The TFT driver is based on ST7781R with 8bit data and 4bit control interface.

Using this TFT LCD Mega Expansion Shield V2.2 for Arduino MEGA the users can now directly plug the LCD shields from 3.2″ to 5″ onto the Arduino Mega board.

So at the beginning I connect the nRF24L01 to the Mega2560 using the inner SPI-connector cluster and pin 8 & 10. The following code works fine (so the sender gets connected directly).

In the next step, I simply plug the TFT LCD Mega Shield V2.2 shield (no re-wireing of the nRF24L01) and try to run the same code as again without a display connected. Unfortunately, it will not work out and the nRF24L01 cannot be reached anymore.

I have even tried this with another arduino and another shield, but it will always lead to the same behavior. I especially also checked for any shortcuts, but non are there.
