100% brand new 3.2 Inch TFT LCD module(w/Font IC, Touchscreen,SD Slot,PWM circuit) for arduino DUE and mega2560, chipKit systems





Description:

This 3.2" TFT LCD Module can be can be easy controlled by MCU such as 8051, PIC, AVR, ARDUINO, and ARM .It can be used in any embedded systems which require display high quality colorful image. Please see the sample pictures, they are taken directly from the LCD display. The Module include a 5V>3.3V regulator, touchpad IC, PWM circuit and SD card slot.

For Arduino/chipKit usage, they are compatible with Arduino MEGA 2560 and Arduino DUE, with the CTE Mega and DUE shield available in our stores.
To use the module on Arduino DUE, please use THIS shield, 
To use the module on Arduino MEGA 2560 , please use THIS shield,
To use the module on chipKit Max32, please use THIS shield, 
To use the module on chipKit Uno32 uC32, please use THIS shield,

This TFT will be shipped with Font IC, which support the new UTFT_GHL library. The new UTFT_GHL library is the next version of UTFT_CTE library which provide a lot of new and exciting features based on the fontIC. For UTFT_GHL library details, please visit http://www.utftghl.com/

1. Convenience and simple Windows program to add image to the fontIC with just two steps directly to the TFT, no SD card is required.
    Upload “Flash_Multifunction” Sketch to your Arduino Select the image using the exclusive Win_FontICManager and upload. The software will automatically find the next available sector on the FontIC and return the “index number” of the image. You can then use this “index number” to load the image in your own arudino sketch:
CTE_LCD.Load_image((“index number”);
CTE_LCD.Load_image(x, y, (“index number”);
CTE_LCD.Load_image(x, y, (“index number”, angle, centreofx, centreofy);



2. Support adding of new fonts.
    Beside the traditional Bitstream Vera fonts which is bundled together at shipping, you can now add other type of fonts and different sizes to your fontIC with just one click. Upload “Flash_Multifunction” Sketch to your Arduino Select the .bin font file using the exclusive Win_FontICManager and upload. The software will automatically find the next available sector on the FontIC and return the “index number” of the font. You can then use this “index number” to load the font in your own arudino sketch:
CTE_LCD.Put_Text("This is your text", 5, 226, (“index number”)

3. Advanced Font/image Presentation:
    The following advanced features are supported using the new UTFT_GHL library:
    • Fonts/Images can be used in LANDSCAPE or PORTRAIT mode.  
    • Fonts/Images can be drawn with or without transparent background. 
    • Fonts/Images can be drawn rotated. o Fonts can be drawn LEFT, CENTER, or RIGHT justified. 
    • Images can be drawn centred in both axes. 
    • Width of text strings can be ‘measured’ allowing accurate placement of text.

4. Support Win_FontICManager2 software
    The version 2 of Win_FontICManager software can allow you to dump the fontIC contents (both images and fonts) to the windows folder with just one click, so that you can view the current images/fonts inside your fontIC at any given moment, you can also put all the images into a folder and upload them directly to the fontIC in a fast way.

Beside this TFT, we have other TFTs for your select and they support UTFT and UTFT_GHL libraries too:
