2.4′ TFT LCD Screen Module with TOUCH
http://www.elecfreaks.com/store/24-tft-lcd-tft0124-p-110.html
Bought in china in 2011; elder version of the display with ILI9325D controller; 3.3V version
-
This is a 3.3V LCD, so if you use it with a 5V platform like Arduino you'll need to convert pins to 3.3V
Test environment: arduino mega 2560 board (5V !) powered by usb cable
When controlling the display with arduino mega, the interface signals carry 4.2V!!! This leads to latchup at databus signals. The display flickers and stays white at the end.
Solution (quick and dirty!): since the setup and write operation to the tft registers works, there is a quick and dirty solution: after tft controller is set up, the databus is disabled by switching the arduino pins to input thus not driving any tft controller pins.
void deactivate_and_wait(){
// set Databus inactive to prevent latchup
for (int i = 22; i<=37; i++) pinMode(i,INPUT_PULLUP);
delay(2000);
for (int i = 22; i<=37; i++) pinMode(i,OUTPUT);
}
Solution (real solution) would be to use 3.3V interface (e.g. level shifter or resistor deviders)
UTFT library and examples: ILI9325D_16 Controller interface (Attention: there are tft displays with other drivers e.g. S6D1121
UTFT myGLCD(ILI9325D_16,38,39,40,41);
Default pinout for UTFT Examples
TFT ARDUINO
RS 4 38
WR 5 39
CS 15 40
RESET 17 41
RD 6 3.3V
Example with dirty solution (may destroy your display!)
