3" 240x400 EVE TFT Display
Part Number: CFA240400E1-030TN
This display module combines a 3" TFT display with an embedded video engine (EVE) PCB for a powerful display module. The EVE PCB, powered by an FTDI/Bridgetek FT81x, accepts high-level commands, simplifying the creation of beautiful interfaces.
EVE Graphics Accelerator features include:
The TFT display included in this module is a 3" TFT with a resolution of 240x400.
We have everything you need to develop with the FTDI EVE platform including 12-inch 30-pin FPC cables, 6-inch 30-pin FPC cables and an EVE breakout board, and any product support you may need.
The complete 3" 240x400 Full-Color EVE development kit for this module is also available. The development kit includes everything needed to get this display module working.
This model does not have a touch screen. For a 3" EVE module with touch, check out the 240x400 Touchscreen EVE TFT.
