Wiring Connections
- VCC: Connect to a 5V power supply.
- GND: Connect to the ground (GND) of your microcontroller.
- TX: Connect to the RX pin of your microcontroller.
- RX: Connect to the TX pin of your microcontroller.
- Touch Signal (if available): Connect to an appropriate input pin if separate touch signals are used.
Power
- Voltage Requirement: Operates on a 5V supply, provided by the microcontroller or an external power source.
- Current Consumption: The display consumes around 150mA, depending on the brightness and usage of the touch panel.
Input and Output
- Input: Receives data and commands through the UART interface. The resistive touch panel allows for input from the user, such as taps and swipes.
- Output: Displays visual data like text, images, and buttons. It also sends touch event data back to the microcontroller.
Physical Characteristics
