2.8inch IPS LCD 320x240 Touch Display with MicroSD Slot

This is a tiny little screen that, despite its small size, is surprisingly functional and great for both tiny little projects, as well as moderate to larger projects too! Compared to the usual mini displays that you may find, this 2.8inch IPS LCD 320x240 Touch Display features an integrated MicroSD Slot breakout on the back, and this makes it quite versatile, being a useful module for projects like custom handheld devices or measurement tools, as well as for projects in which space is tight but user interaction functionality is imperative. In these types of projects, you can utilise these handy Modules for not only display functionality, but also for storage and user interaction as well, keeping projects compact while maximising their capabilities.

In terms of the visuals that these Display Modules offer, they feature a nice 16-bit colour depth with the RGB565 format for extra visual “oomph”, with the impressive 120° viewing angle that lends itself well to both mobile devices as well as side panels and enclosure style interfaces. This is then complemented with a decently responsive resistive touch screen, SPI and GDI interfacing, as well as compatibility with all kinds of microcontrollers from Arduino to ESP32. And all of these features packed into one tiny module certainly means Makers now have an easy and convenient way to integrate all of this into almost any project that they’re planning on enjoying.

Typical Applications for these 2.8inch IPS LCD Mini Resistive Touch Displays:

Having a tiny display is great, but having a tiny touchscreen display is even better, as it not only gives you a great little display for users to read information, but also an interface that users can interact with in an easy to understand way. This makes these little 2.8inch IPS Touch Displays the perfect modules for creating projects like custom Tamagotchi clones for little cousins, personalised measurement devices for mechanically minded individuals, as well as for almost any other projects that can benefit from displaying data and allowing for user interaction. Furthermore, with integrated storage capabilities, it’s easy to see how this little module could be used for a wide range of projects – even if those projects don’t necessarily need display functionality – to give almost any project some extra functionality, versatility, as well as extra “oomph” when you’re showing it off to your friends.
