A 320x240 2.8"" 16-bit display to enhance your Pi based projectsResistive touch interfaceDriven via hardware SPI interface to display a variety of images and outputsGPIO breakout pins to work with Pi boardsPlease click here to view the detailed guide and drivers Is this not the cutest little display for the Raspberry Pi? It features a 2.8" display with 320x240 16-bit colour pixels and a resistive touch overlay. The plate uses the high speed SPI interface on the Pi and can use the mini display as a console, X window port, displaying images or video etc. Best of all it plugs right in on top! Uses the hardware SPI pins (SCK, MOSI, MISO, CE0, CE1) as well as GPIO #25 and #24. All other GPIO are unused. Since we had a tiny bit of space, there's 4 spots for optional slim tactile switches wired to four GPIOs, that you can use if you want to make a basic user interface. For example, you can use one as a power on/off button. See below for the link to get the optional tact switches, they're not included. This version comes as a mini-kit, with a 2x13 extra-tall female header (to connect the plate to the Pi) and a 2x13 male header that can be used to connect an IDC cable or cobbler from the side.
