Don t want to arduino mega 2560 projects. The arduino mega 2560 is programmed using the arduino software ide, our integrated development environment common to all our boards and running both online and offline. Restart the IDEĪlso requires the Adafruit_GFX library for Arduino.Download Now FUNDUINO MEGA 2560 R3 DRIVER You may need to create the libraries subfolder if its your first library. Place the Adafruit_TFT library folder your /libraries/ folder.

These displays use 8-bit parallel to communicate, 12 or 13 pins are requiredĪdafruit invests time and resources providing this open source code, This library works with the Adafruit 2.8' TFT Breakout w/SD cardĬheck out the links above for our tutorials and wiring diagrams. This library is a fork that originally descended from with fixes and additions from both Jeroi and then Alftron.

is a library that can also be associated with this touch screen module.

Installing version 1.5.3 can be done within the Arduino IDE by going to Library Manager, searching for 'Adafruit_GFX_Library' and installing the proper version.

As Adafruit states below, the Adafruit_GFX library is required and can be found at, but it is IMPORTANT to note that compilation errors may occur with versions later than 1.5.3.

This library has a selection of files that were copied from a contributer by the name of materone, and the file structure has been reorganized slightly.

The TFT LCD shield that was used for testing was sold by Kumantech. Arduino library for 8-bit TFT LCDs, specifically modified and tested for a 2.8' screen, using the Mega 2560
