240x320 2.4 Inch Full-Color TFT

Part Number: CFAF240320A0-024SN

This 2.4" TFT display packs a definite punch. It's sunlight-readable emitting 850 nits, plus, with a contrast ratio of 800:1 and 240X320 pixels, detailed images appear sharp and clear. This display is a great choice for any project that will be used in bright spaces and needs to show a little more detail than some other displays allow.

A single 40-pin, 0.5mm pitch FPC makes all the connections to the display, including the white LCD backlight. Standard ZIF mating connectors: 40 Position, 0.50mm Pitch ZIF connector.

240x320 2.4" EVE TFT Display
Part Number: CFA240320E0-024SN

A sunlight readable, 2.4" diagonal EVE TFT, this module leverages the EVE FT811 chip to simplify displaying complex graphics. The EVE handles the touch, backlight, and audio and presents as a SPI device while providing the graphics speed of an RGB display.

The display is sunlight readable, full color, and has a wide viewing angle, so this display module works well for both indoor and outdoor applications.

This EVE TFT only requires 3.3v inputs, making this display module perfect for hand-held applications. Read more about how the EVE chip can help your product development on our blog.

Key Features:

  • Graphics accelerating FT811 chip for easy graphics control
  • Sunlight Readable (850 nits)
  • SPI interface
  • IPS
  • Full color TFT (262k colors)
  • 2.4" diagonal active area
  • 4x 2-56 threaded mounting stand-offs
EVE Features:
  • Supports multiple widgets for simplified design implementation
  • Enhanced sketch processing
  • Anti-aliasing of primitive displayed objects for higher-quality graphics
  • Graphical effects such as alpha-blending, shadows, transitions, wipes, etc.
  • Programmable interrupt controller provides interrupts to host MCU
  • Support playback of motion-JPEG encoded AVI videos
  • Mono audio channel output with wave playback and built-in sound synthesizer
  • PWM output for display backlight dimming control
For more detailed information on EVE, see the FTDI FT81x Datasheet. Further information including programming examples, interface design software, and more can be found on Bridgetek?s website here: https://brtchip.com/ic-module/product/ft811/
