hey i bought an lcd from ebay but i cant seem to find much information about it that makes scene, the listing states one controller and some other information says its another so im pretty confused. i would also like to find it out if i can run it from 5v without damage?
if anyone knows more about this module it would be great.
thanks
matt

This listing was ended by the seller because the item is no longer available.
You will have to come up with a better link.
A clear photo of your device may help someone identify it, especially if there is legible information on it.

The link works for me.
-- Onboard 3.3V regulator require a single 5V supply
-- 3.3V I/O voltage level tolerance
Looks like you can supply 5v, but the data lines can only be 3.3V.
The link works for me.
I had to disable java script to see it and then the editing buttons didn't work when I came back here. It looks like they offer a data sheet so that would be the first step. You might want to change your topic to use the term GLCD instead of LCD, you are more likely to attract the people who can give you the help you need.

Sorry but all the information is there.....
-- HX8347-A 240RGBx320 a-Si 262K color TFT controller
-- ADS7843 compatible touch panel controller
-- Standard SD card cage
-- Support 16 bit RGB565 format , can connect any 16 bit data bus
-- Onboard 3.3V regulator require a single 5V supply
-- 3.3V I/O voltage level tolerance
But you may be 'buggered' since the I/O is 3.3v tolerant, which means you need a translation shield to interface with 5v.
So do not connect it to your arduino UNLESS you use a 3.3v development board OR you buffer the I/O lines.
Why buy this if you knew it was for an arduino?
Sure because there is all ready made a shield for this called ITDB02 fit's Arduino perfectly with level translation. You have to switch between TOUCH/SD, can't be used at same time.
BTW works perfect, but uses all pins standard.
