Features:
--Mega2560 Board--
The MEGA 2560 is designed for more complex projects. The ATmega2560 on the Mega 2560 comes preprogrammed with a bootloader that allows you to upload new code to it without the use of an external hardware programmer.

It has 54 digital I/O pins (of which 15 can be used as PWM outputs), 16 analog inputs, 4 UARTs (hardware serial ports), a 16 MHz crystal oscillator, a USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header, and a reset button.

--3.2'' Full Color TFT Touch Screen--
3.2" TFT LCD Display has 40pins interface and SD card and Flash reader design. It is a powerful and mutilfunctional module for your project.

The touch screen include a controller ILI9325, it's a support 16bit data interface , easy to drive by many MCU like arduino families, STM32, AVR and 8051. It is designed with a touch controller in it and has a wide viewing angle.

The touch IC is XPT2046 , and touch interface is included in the 40 pins breakout. It is the version of product only with touch screen and touch controller.

Since there is sufficient Mega2560 IO, the TFT01 LCD supports 16-bit mode. It is not like using 328S, only can use a set of SD card port or touch screen interface.

--3.2'' LCD Screen Shiled Expansion Board--
3.2" TFT LCD's working voltage is 3.3V, so it can not be used directly on a standard Arduino mainboard, in order to make the TFT01 LCD compatible with standard Arduino board, this TFT Shield was designed.

Feature

Adafruit Part Number: 2050
Stock Type: LCDs & Displays >> Graphic TFT
In Stock & Ready to Ship

Description

Add some jazz & pizazz to your project with a color touchscreen LCD. This TFT display is big (3.5" diagonal) bright (6 white-LED backlight) and colorful! 480x320 pixels with individual RGB pixel control, this has way more resolution than a black and white 128x64 display, and double our 2.8" TFT. As a bonus, this display has a resistive touchscreen attached to it already, so you can detect finger presses anywhere on the screen.

This display has a controller built into it with RAM buffering, so that almost no work is done by the microcontroller.The display can be used in two modes: 8-bit or SPI.For 8-bit mode, you'll need 8 digital data lines and 4 or 5 digital control lines to read and write to the display (12 lines total). SPI mode requires only 5 pins total (SPI data in, data out, clock, select, and d/c) but is slower than 8-bit mode. In addition, 4 pins are required for the touch screen (2 digital, 2 analog) or you can purchase and use our resistive touchscreen controller (not included) to use I2C or SPI .

Of course, we wouldn't just leave you with a datasheet and a "good luck!". Check out our detailed tutorial for wiring, test and example code! For 8-bit interface fans we've written a full open source graphics library that can draw pixels, lines, rectangles, circles, text, and more . For SPI users, we have a library as well , its separate from the 8-bit library since both versions are heavily optimized. We also have a touch screen library that detects x, y and z (pressure) and example code to demonstrate all of it.

Note: Arduino and breadboard not included. TFT and header only.

10. 2.8" TFT Touch Shield for Arduino with Resistive Touch Screen

Feature

Adafruit Part Number: 1651
Stock Type: Arduino >> Shields >> TFTs & Displays
In Stock & Ready to Ship

Description

Spice up your Arduino project with a beautiful large touchscreen display shield with built in microSD card connection. This TFT display is big (2.8" diagonal) bright (4 white-LED backlight) and colorful (18-bit 262,000 different shades)! 240x320 pixels with individual pixel control. It has way more resolution than a black and white 128x64 display. As a bonus, this display has a resistive touchscreen attached to it already, so you can detect finger presses anywhere on the screen. ( We also have a capacitive-touch version of this shield here )

We've updated our original v1 shield to an SPI display - its a tiny bit slower but uses a lot less pins and is now much easier to use with Mega & Leonardo. We also include an SPI touchscreen controller so you only need one additional pin to add a high quality touchscreen controller. Even with all the extras, the price is lower thanks to our parts sourcing & engineering skillz!

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/Duemilanove/Diecimila). Solder three jumpers and you can use it at full speed on a Leonardo or Mega as well.

This display shield has a controller built into it with RAM buffering, so that almost no work is done by the microcontroller. This shield needs fewer pins than our v1 shield, so you can connect more sensors, buttons and LEDs: 5 SPI pins for the display, another pin for the SPI touchscreen controller and another pin for uSD card if you want to read images off of it.

Of course, we wouldn't just leave you with a datasheet and a "good luck!" - we've written a full open source graphics library 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

Conclusion

All above are our suggestions for arduino touchscreen. This might not suit you, so we prefer that you read all detail information also customer reviews to choose yours. Please also help to share your experience when using arduino touchscreen with us by comment in this post. Thank you!
