1. GENERAL INFORMATION
Dear customer,
Thank you for choosing our product. This guide will show you how to use this device.
Should you encounter any unexpected problems during use, please do not hesitate to contact Joy-it.
2. USAGE WITH ARDUINO
2.1 Connection
A diagram shows the 1.44" HD IPS TFT LCD connected to an Arduino board. Wires connect specific pins from the Arduino (VCC, Pin 13, Pin 11, Pin 5, Pin 3, Pin 4, GND, VCC) to corresponding pins on the display (LED, SCK, SDA, A0, Reset, CS, GND, VCC).
Arduino | Display |
---|---|
VCC | LED |
Pin 13 | SCK |
Pin 11 | SDA |
Pin 5 | A0 |
Pin 3 | Reset |
Pin 4 | CS |
GND | GND |
VCC | VCC |
? Since the display works with a 3V logic level and most Arduinos work with 5V, this example uses an Arduino Pro Mini 3.3V. If you are using an Arduino with a 5V logic level (e.g., Arduino Uno), you must use a voltage translator to reduce all data lines from 5V to 3.3V.
2.2 Code Example
For the SBC-LCD02, the library ssd1206 by lexus2k is used, released under the MIT License. You can download this library via the Arduino IDE: Sketch → Include Library → Manage libraries....
To run example code, navigate to File → Examples → ssd1306 → demos → il9163_demo. Upload the code using the 'Upload' button. Ensure the correct Board and Port are selected under 'Tools'.
3. USAGE WITH RASPBERRY PI
3.1 Connection
A diagram illustrates the 1.44" HD IPS TFT LCD connected to a Raspberry Pi board. Wires connect specific GPIO pins from the Raspberry Pi (GPIO 23, GPIO 11 (SCLK), GPIO 10 (MOSI), GPIO 22, GPIO 18, GPIO 8 (CE0), GND, 3.3V) to corresponding pins on the display (LED, SCK, SDA, A0, Reset, CS, GND, VCC).
Raspberry Pi | Display |
---|---|
GPIO 23 | LED |
GPIO 11 (SCLK) | SCK |
GPIO 10 (MOSI) | SDA |
GPIO 22 | A0 |
GPIO 18 | Reset |
GPIO 8 (CE0) | CS |
GND | GND |
3,3 V | VCC |
3.2 Code Example
First, run the following commands in the Raspberry Pi terminal to install necessary dependencies:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install git
sudo apt-get install python3-dev python3-rpi.gpio
sudo apt-get install python3-pip
sudo pip3 install spidev
Next, enable SPI in your Raspberry Pi's settings by running the following command:
sudo raspi-config
In the raspi-config
tool, navigate to 3 Interface Options → P4 SPI.
Screenshots from the Raspberry Pi Software Configuration Tool (raspi-config) are shown. The first shows the main menu with options to configure system settings, display, interfaces, performance, etc. The second shows the 'Interface Options' menu, highlighting 'P4 SPI' for enabling the SPI kernel module. A final prompt asks 'Would you like the SPI interface to be enabled?' with 'Yes' and 'No' options.
After enabling SPI, restart the Raspberry Pi:
sudo reboot
Next, download the library LIBtft144 from BLavery, released under the GNU General Public License version 3:
git clone https://github.com/BLavery/LIBtft144.git
cd LIBtft144
Download the provided sample script:
wget https://joy-it.net/files/files/Produkte/SBC-LCD02/SBC-LCD02.zip
unzip SBC-LCD02.zip && rm SBC-LCD02.zip
You can now run the sample code using the following command:
python3 SBC-LCD02.py
4. OTHER INFORMATION
Symbol on electrical and electronic products
?️ This crossed-out bin symbol indicates that electrical and electronic products must not be disposed of with household waste. You must hand over old appliances to a designated collection point. Before handing over an old appliance, remove any used batteries and accumulators that are not enclosed within the device.
Return options
As an end user, you can return your old appliance free of charge for disposal when purchasing a new device with essentially the same functions. Small devices with outer dimensions not exceeding 25 cm can be submitted independently of a new product purchase in normal household quantities.
