Adafruit 1.8" Color TFT Shield w/microSD and Joystick info

Adafruit 1.8" Color TFT Shield w/microSD and Joystick is the best way to add a small, colorful and bright display to any project. Adafruit took the popular 1.8" TFT breakout board and remixed it into an Arduino shield complete with microSD card slot and a 5-way joystick navigation! 

Adafruit 1.8" Color TFT Shield w/microSD and Joystick has the TFT display soldered on as well as a ultra-low-dropout 3.3V regulator and a 3/5V level shifter so it’s safe to use with 5V Arduinos. There is also some space left over, so a microSD card holder and a 5-way navigation switch are added. Note that the microSD card is not included.  

If you just want to display text, shapes, lines, pixels, etc., the shield uses pins 13, 11, 10 and 8. If you'd like to add the navigation switch, it uses Analog 3. For the microSD card, you'll also give up Digital 12 and 4. This shield works best with the Arduino UNO and compatibles. You can use it with the Mega but it won't be as fast since it would be using software rather than hardware SPI for both the TFT and SD card, so it's not recommended.

Adafruit 1.8" Color TFT Shield w/microSD and Joystick comes as a fully assembled and tested shield with the display, microSD card holder and nav switch with knob as well as a stick of 0.1” header. To finish up and use, you will need to solder on the header onto the shield PCB, a quick 10 minute task.

Adafruit 1.8" Color TFT Shield w/microSD and Joystick - Technical Specifications

  • Physical dimensions: 69mm width, 53.5mm height, 6.94mm thickness
  • 128x160 resolution, 18-bit (262,144) color
  • ST7735R controller with built in pixel-addressable video RAM buffer

  • 2 white LED backlight, transistor connected. Defaults to 'on' but can be connected to a digital pin for PWM or simply turning off
  • Comes with header, requires soldering!
  • Display current draw is mostly based on the backlight, with full backlight the current draw is ~100mA, this does not include the SD Card. SD cards can draw 20-100mA based on read/write. Measure current draw in circuit to get precise numbers.
