2-inch Capacitive Touch LCD Display 240x320

The 2-inch Capacitive Touch LCD Display by Waveshare is a compact 2-inch IPS display module with a capacitive touchscreen and a resolution of 240×320 pixels. The display driver uses the ST7789T3 chip, while the touch control is handled by the CST816D chip. Communication is separated: the display is controlled via a 4-wire SPI interface, and the touch function operates over I2C. The IPS panel offers a color depth of 262K colors and an active display area of 30.6 × 40.8 mm with a pixel pitch of 0.1275 × 0.1275 mm. Thanks to the integrated voltage regulator, the module is compatible with both 3.3 V and 5 V operating voltages, simplifying integration into various microcontroller environments. For connection to the host board, either a 15-pin GH1.25 connector or an 18-pin FPC slot is available. The module also features an integrated TF card slot for storing images or files. The module dimensions are 37.1 × 58.8 mm, enabling space-saving integration into custom projects. Example code and documentation for Raspberry Pi, Raspberry Pi Pico, ESP32, and Arduino are provided by the manufacturer. The capacitive touchscreen ensures high transmittance, fast response time, and long lifespan. This module is ideal for developers and makers looking to integrate a small, touch-sensitive color display into their circuits.
