Hi there
i have purchased a 2.2" TFT off ebay and i can not get it to work i just get a white display this is how i have it connected:
Arduino uno ILI9341

8 RESET
9 CS
10 DC/RS
11 SDI/MOSI
12 SDO/MISO
13 SCK
5v 220R LED
5v Vcc
GND GND

This is the code i am using.

this bit i have changed:
#define TFT_RST 8
#define TFT_DC 10
#define TFT_CS 9

This is what i got back from the serial monitor:
ILI9341 Test!
Display Power Mode: 0x9C
MADCTL Mode: 0x48
Pixel Format: 0x5
Image Format: 0x0
Self Diagnostic: 0xC0
Benchmark Time (microseconds)
Screen fill 1150388
Text 159620

Horiz/Vert Lines 99240
Rectangles (outline) 63932
Rectangles (filled) 2400076
Circles (filled) 332272

Triangles (outline) 108144
Triangles (filled) 926164
Rounded rects (outline) 136204
Rounded rects (filled) 2416164
Done!

To be honest i don't understand what that is telling me so i don't no if it looks correct or not?

Thanks Joe

Right i got it working i had got my resistors mixed up :confused:

So i have been having a bit of a play about using bigger fronts and there seem to get pixelated what would you suggest to tidy up the front?

this is the code i have been playing with:

#include <SPI.h>
#include <ILI9341_due_config.h>
#include <ILI9341_due.h>

#include "fonts/Arial_bold_14.h"

#define TFT_CS 9
#define TFT_DC 10
#define TFT_RST 8

ILI9341_due tft = ILI9341_due(TFT_CS, TFT_DC, TFT_RST);

void setup()
{
 delay(1000);
 bool result = tft.begin();
 tft.setRotation(iliRotation90);
 tft.fillScreen(ILI9341_BLUE);

 tft.setFont(Arial_bold_14);
 
 tft.setTextScale(3);
 tft.setTextColor(ILI9341_WHITE, ILI9341_BLUE);
 tft.printAligned(F("HELLO ALL"), gTextAlignMiddleCenter);
}
