Arduino Tutorial: Using the ST7735 1.8' Color TFT Display with Arduino.

The ST7735 1.8" color TFT display is a great little display to use with you Arduino projects. It works on every Arduino board, like the Arduino Uno, the Arduino Nano, the Arduino Mega and the Arduino Due.

The resolution of the display is 160x128 pixels and on the back of the module one can find an SD card module! Great! I am really impressed with this display. I am going to use it a lot from now on!

The cost of the display is very low. It costs around 5$! It is impressive.

Want to learn to code?

Dude I really like your videos. It is simple and straight forward none of the jibber jabber and wasting of time. Thank you, will subscribe and pass the word on! Rock on bro.

Great Video. Very easy to follow and with slight connection changes and pin number changes to the code, I was able to run this on MEGA 2560 board all within 1 hr. Thanks a lot for your effort in making this video.

This is the best video I've seen so far about this kind of screen, thank u

[melisawhitt]

i have watched a lot of your videos you do a great job explaining things thank you

[AlexDiesTrying]

Thank you for the video. I need a display to plot a simple map for a crazy lawn project and this'll do nicely. I just ordered it.

Temperature controller would be a nice project with upper and lower set points and relay output for my workshop heater thanks, Bob I love your explanation and detail

[MrWizardofozzz]

Great video thank you. I am using a 6 channel relay with my Arduino, is it possible for the display to show the relays and perhaps flash when they are active..?
any help would be appreciated..

Great video! Can you I different pins for the display? I have a shield plugged in that uses D7, D8, and D9. Can I change the pins used with this screen to avoid conflicts?

[waynehawkins]

Thank you for the video.
Note: Does say on the website you should have a 5 ohm resistor on the 3.3V supply as the recommended backlight power supply is no more then 3.2V (or 25 ohm if running from 5v)

How can I connect this TFT type with node MCU 8266.

[TheRainHarvester]

Anyone know how to get around the 3.3v led requirement? My custom pcb won't have 3.3v.

[MkmeOrg]

Great video as always. Very nice little display and very well explained. Cheers!

I have the arduino uno r3. I have this screen and hooked it up like yours.

I have a personal project I'm working on." 790s head" from an old tv show called Lexx. I have printed the head. Now to program the eyes or 1 eye as is in the tv show. Would coding like this be possible. To mimick the robots eyes from the show?

Nice video! can I use the bitmap thingy and the LCD assistant on this LCD Display??

[drakkorvladimir]

I am getting adafruit errors in the cpp file. I tied all versions of the library but no luck?

[revievillarante]

Hello, How did you perform landscape view for this screen? Like I saw in 2:25

[noelwalterso]

Just want to let you know that in your connection diagram you have pins 8 and 9 reversed for the adafruit example.

[athensbeats]

hello! I would like to use it with Ableton Live 10. what I want to get is feedback to what device I'm using. i.e. compressor, eq8, effects rack, etc. the goal is to compliment a 4 potentiometer device I already have with Arduino UNO

[amylambden]

Hello - Do you happen to have a datasheet or specification for the board you are using please?

[Vass]

My ST7735 1.8" SPI TFT arrived - but the pins are marked differently, the last 3 connections are not there - instead I have DIN, CLK, BL I am missing SDA, SCK, LED any ideas?
