Zest_Display_LCD

Overview

The Zest_Display_LCD is an electronics development board for 6TRON open source platform, featuring a color TFT LCD display module.

The Zest_Display_LCD integrates the following elements:

  • The ER-TFT018-2 module from EastRising, a 1.8" color TFT LCD display with an integrated TFT driver (ILI9163C)

  • The ER-TP018-2, 1.8" resistive touch panel from EastRising

  • The TSC2003 I2C touch screen controller

  • An OPT3002 light sensor for backlight control (through onboard Backlight PWM-dimming)

The Zest_Display_LCD offers 6TRON users a small TFT color LCD to display and draw text, images, and shapes in highly readable form.
