Adafruit 2.8" TFT LCD with Cap Touch Breakout Board w/MicroSD Socket

Add some jazz and pizazz to your project with a color capacitive touchscreen LCD. This TFT display is big (2.8" diagonal), bright (4 white-LED backlight), and colorful! With 240x320 pixels featuring individual RGB pixel control, it boasts superior resolution compared to a black and white 128x64 display.Enjoy the bonus of a built-in capacitive single-touch touchscreen, perfect for smooth finger press detection. It features a comprehensive controller with RAM buffering for minimal microcontroller workload. Choose between 8-bit mode, requiring 12 total lines, and SPI mode using only 5 pins, though slightly slower. Additionally, two I2C pins are needed for the touchscreen controller.The display comes in a handy breakout board, equipped with SPI and 8-bit connections, and is 3-5V compliant with high-speed level shifters suitable for any microcontroller. Utilize the onboard MicroSD card socket to showcase images, compatible with any microSD card (not included).Furnished with open-source graphics libraries, the 8-bit setup can render pixels, lines, rectangles, circles, text, and more, while dedicated SPI libraries streamline operations. Our facile step-by-step guide ensures you’re operational in 15 minutes. New as of December 2022, the display breakout includes an 18-pin "EYESPI" standard FPC connector for straightforward SPI and I2C connectivity, perfect for bypassing soldering headers while requiring SPI-mode jumper soldering. Complete compatibility extends to an Arduino-shaped microcontroller through a TFT shield version.
