The TFT 2.4 inch Touch Screen Shield Module is an 18-bit 262,000 color screen for Arduino UNO or Mega it comes with a Pen for convenient writing, controlled by an ILI9341 chip which can operate with 1.65V ~ 3.3V I/O interface voltage and an incorporated voltage follower circuit to generate voltage levels for driving an LCD. ILI9341 supports full color, 8-color display mode, and sleep mode for precise power control by software.

Specifications:

• 2.4" diagonal LCD TFT display
• Bright, 4 white-LED backlights, on by default but you can connect the transistor to a digital pin for backlight control
• Colorful, 18-bit 262,000 different shades
• 4-wire resistive touchscreen
• 8-bit digital interface, plus 4 control lines
• Uses digital pins 5-13 and analog 0-3. That means you can use digital pins 2, 3, and analog 4, and Pin 12 is available if not using the micro SD
• 5V compatible, use with 3.3V or 5V logic
• Resolution: 240X320
• Driver IC: ILI9341

Package included:

• 1 x 2.4" TFT LCD Shield Socket Touch Panel Module
