3.2 "TFT LCD module include touch screen and SD card slot. The controller is SSD1289, touch IC is XPT2046. Using UTFT or ITDB02_ Graph16 libraries get it works.
Has this module. Connected according to scheme above (MEGA2560) and tested with UTF library - everything works fine. I prefer to connect LEDA to one of D pins to control brightness.
I had this problem. Wired the thing up to the mega2560.
Downloaded the libraries (UTFT.)
Uploaded the sketch.
Result:
White screen that does a flickery thing...
I put a post up like yours and

You can get a shield from : http://iteadstudio.com/produce/itdb02-arduino-mega-shield-v1-1-come-with-library-v1-2/
for the arduino mega and the LCD for about $7.50.
I ordered one last week. I'll put a post up when it arrives.
There are a couple of considerations when using UTFT depending on whether your using 8bit, 16bit or serial modes to talk to the tft, in my case using ITDB02 shield with 3.2"TFT and HX chipset on Mega in 16 bit mode
UTFT myGLCD(ITDB32S,38,39,40,41);
For my 2.4" TFT i use this line to tell UTFT which driver to us
The elec-freaks site says the i/o is all 3.3v - Could that be the cause of the white screen problem? They suggest a 30k+20k resistor pair to drop from 5v, so it's cheap enough (if ugly). Anyone know if the Vcc HAS to be 5v?
Hello Guys,
I´m pretty new in this Forum, from Germany - so sorry for my school english.
I´ve a Question to the specialists here. I want to connect a 3.2" TFT tp the Arduino Mega with a 80cm long Flatcable.
One Side is soldered at the Display, the other side is Connected with a 40pin pressconnector to the LCD Shield.
After doing this the Display don´t work without problems and sometimes the Touch doesn´t work at all.
Any Idea how i can solve the Problem?

Hi anyone had Connected 3.2 TFT LCD with SSD1289 directly to Arduino Due
Yes, just using UTFT. Arduino Due with a (saintsmart-isch) 3.2" with SSD1289 ordered from samenkopen.net. Works out of the box. Not using a shield, just wired it directly. There is some documentation in the "UTFT Requirements.PDF" file on the connections.
I did supply it it with 5V, but directly connected the 3.3V pins to the Arduino Due. And connection RST == REST. And supply LED_A with 3,3V, its the backlight. Any miswire wil give white or noisy screens. I had to doublecheck these a few times, its easy to miswire one of the 20+ wires.
