Tutorial: How to Use STM32/51 TFT 2.4″ Board

The STM32/51 TFT 2.4″ board is ideal for projects that require a graphical interface and advanced computing power. Useful for beginner and intermediate makers.

What you need

• Arduino IDE
• USB Cable
• MicroSD (optional)
• 2.4-inch TFT Display
• ESD Protection

Steps

1. 1. Download and install the Arduino IDE.
2. 2. Connect the board to the Arduino with the USB cable.
3. 3. Check the datasheet for the power supply configuration.
4. 4. Load the ‘TFT_test’ example from the Arduino IDE.
5. 5. Verify the connection of the display to the board.
6. 6. If necessary, set the screen resolution.
7. 7. Try to display a welcome message.
8. 8. Connect a microSD (if available) and try to read a file.

Example code

```
#include <Adafruit_GFX.h>
#include <Adafruit_STM32_TFT.h>

Adafruit_STM32_TFT tft = Adafruit_STM32_TFT(128, 160);

void setup() {
  tft.begin();
}

void loop() {
  tft.fillScreen(TFT_BLACK);
  tft.setCursor(0, 0);
  tft.setTextColor(TFT_WHITE);
  tft.setTextSize(1);
  tft.print("Benvenuto!");
}
```

Mini project

Create a simple stopwatch with a screen display.
