Adafruit Breakout TFT 2.2" w/ILI9340c help!!

Post by mangapeeps »

I've just bought a tft sceen to connect to an Arduino Uno. It seems that I can get the screen to light up (white) but I can't get ay imagery to show on it.

I've tried to download the sketches for 1.8" screen and also the tutorial on the adafruit website relevant to the 2.2" screen but nothing is working! :(
Tutorial here: http://learn.adafruit.com/2-2-tft-display

I've followed this religiously and checked ad re-checked but seeing as I am an absolute novice I'm wondering if their is maybe something I have missed?

The screen light up and the Uno tx and rx light up when uploading the sketches but the screen just doesn't seem to be receiving it. I've checked the wiring time and time again...

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

Thanks guys

So, which library and examples are you using? The 1.8" library won't work. You need to use the Adafruit_ILI9340 library.

What kind of arduino are you using?

Please post clear, detailed pictures showing your soldering and your wiring.
