FAQs
Which Arduino boards are compatible with the 2.4-inch TFT LCD Display Shield?
What is the difference between TFT and original LCD?
LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) is a type of flat-panel display technology that uses liquid crystals to produce images. TFT (Thin-Film Transistor) is a specific type of LCD technology that employs a thin-film transistor to control the individual pixels on the screen.
How good is TFT LCD display?
TFT LCDs produce sharper images than most other types of display devices. They don't suffer from blurry images. With a TFT LCD, you can rest assured knowing that it will produce high-definition (HD) images with a superior level of sharpness.
