In this video I will show you how TFT LCDs and resistive touchscreens work and how we can utilize an Arduino in order to control them. At the end I will then show you how to create a simple GUI for an Arduino project which has a touchscreen as an input.

Bud Brady you will pick it up the more you watch, I know when I first started watching GS I was just getting into electronics and barely understand anything but just hearing the terms used and working on my own projects I have a much deeper understanding of these videos

Sir - I rarely comment on videos - HOWEVER today I chose to make an exception. I have watched MOST of your videos, and they rank among the best most informative learning activities I think anyone interested in electronics can choose to spend their time doing. What great work! Thank YOU!!!

@philipatkinson1532 2 жыл бұрын

Thank you. I just bought one and was getting very frustrated with its partial function. Simple things such as knowing it’s supposed to be used in a vertical orientation make a big difference! I don’t expect to fully understand the complex theoretical bits, it’s not not my day job, impressed that you do though. More impressed by your consistent ability to explain the relevant bits of complexity in order to use the product, across all of your videos. Very useful and solidly reliable, a ‘go to’ site where you’ve published for anything I’ve bought. Phil

One thing to consider is that while the parallel interface requires fewer clock cycles to set the data it may actually take more clock cycles on the microcontroller because many microcontrollers offer hardware SPI, I2C, and UART modules which operate independently of the rest of the processor.

The serial one works great with the Raspberry pi, because the kernel has the needed FBTFT driver built in. There is a driver for the touch panel, too so you can use it to run the normal Xorg gui on it.

@orange_tweleve 5 ай бұрын

Because those channels focus on mass audiences who just watches videos without any indepth knowledge on anything and at best case be aware of the specs list of whatever being advertised and say it back like a parrot. They are the type of people who will tell you the ram of a phone that's 8gb is the same as a pc 8 gb because they only know that aspect but rather not know anything about bus speed etc.

Although those screens are listed as 5V tolerant, they work with 3.3volts. You need to use a level converter such as BSS138 mosfet in order to use SPI interface.

Every time I see you writing, using highlighters, and rulers it reminds of school in Germany. I lived in Germany and attended school until the 5th grade. I really am amazed at how much better schools are in Germany. I was so far ahead when I started school in the US. Ahead in everything, but English that is. Anyways, sorry for the off-topic rant, keep up the great videos.
