Add vibrant color and interactivity to your project with this 2.4" Color Touchscreen LCD! Featuring a bright backlight with four white LEDs and a sharp 240x320 pixel resolution, this display offers much higher resolution compared to traditional black-and-white 128x64 displays. It also comes with a resistive touchscreen, allowing you to detect finger presses anywhere on the screen for added functionality.

Key Features:

  • High-Resolution Display: 240x320 pixels with individual RGB pixel control, providing sharp and colorful visuals.
  • Resistive Touchscreen: Interact directly with the screen and detect touch input anywhere on the display.
  • Bright Backlight: Four white LEDs for a bright and clear display in any lighting condition.
  • Two Modes of Operation: Use in either 8-bit mode (which requires 12 pins) for faster performance or SPI mode (using only 5 pins), though SPI is slower.
  • Touchscreen Pins: Requires 4 pins for the touchscreen functionality (2 digital, 2 analog). Alternatively, you can use our resistive touchscreen controller (sold separately) to use I2C or SPI for touch input.

Compatible with Larger and Smaller Displays:

  • If you need a larger screen, check out our 2.8" or 3.5" diagonal TFT displays.
  • For a more compact setup, we offer non-touch options like the 2.2", 1.8", or 1.44" diagonal TFTs.

Software Support:

  • We provide a full open-source graphics library for both 8-bit and SPI modes. The library supports drawing pixels, lines, rectangles, circles, text, and more.
  • For resistive touch functionality, we also provide a touch screen library to detect x, y coordinates and pressure (z), along with example code to get you started.
  • Detailed tutorials, wiring diagrams, and schematics are available to help guide you through the setup process.

Technical Details:

  • Screen Dimensions: 43mm x 60mm x 4mm (1.7" x 2.4" x 0.16")
  • PCB Dimensions: 53mm x 60mm x 4mm (2.1" x 2.4" x 0.16")
  • Weight: 30.5g

With this display, you can easily add a dynamic and interactive touch interface to your Raspberry Pi or other microcontroller projects. Perfect for hobbyists and makers looking to enhance their projects with color and interactivity!
