Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this 1.54-inch IPS TFT display module compatible with Arduino and Raspberry Pi?

A: Yes. The module uses a standard 4-wire SPI interface with the ST7789V3 driver IC, which is widely supported by popular libraries (e.g., Adafruit GFX, TFT_eSPI) on Arduino, Raspberry Pi, ESP32, ESP8266, STM32, and most other common microcontroller and single-board computer platforms.

Q: What does the EC11 variant include and how does it help my project?

A: The EC11 variant includes an integrated EC11 rotary encoder alongside the TFT display. This encoder allows you to add physical input control — such as scrolling through menus, adjusting settings, or confirming selections — directly from the display module, reducing the need for separate input hardware.

Q: Does this display work with both 3.3 V and 5 V microcontrollers?

A: The LCM operating voltage (VCC-IM) accepts 3 V to 5 V, making it compatible with both 3.3 V (e.g., ESP32, Raspberry Pi) and 5 V (e.g., Arduino Uno) systems. However, the display logic voltage (Vddio) operates at 2.5–3.3 V, so ensure your SPI data lines are within this range, using a logic level converter if necessary with 5 V systems.

Q: What is the resolution and colour depth of this TFT display module?

A: The module features a 240×RGB×240 full-colour pixel array on a 1.54-inch IPS panel. The ST7789V3 driver supports up to 65K (16-bit) and 262K (18-bit) colours, delivering bright, detailed visuals suitable for graphics, data dashboards, and custom UI designs.
