Adafruit PiTFT 2.4 HAT Mini Kit - 320x240 TFT Touchscreen

The Adafruit PiTFT 2.4" HAT Mini Kit is a compact colour touchscreen display that plugs directly onto your Raspberry Pi's GPIO header. Featuring a 2.4-inch 320×240 pixel TFT with 16-bit colour and a resistive touch overlay, it's ideal for building interactive interfaces, mini consoles, or portable Pi projects.

The HAT communicates over the Pi's high-speed SPI interface and includes pads for up to five optional slim tactile switches wired to GPIO, letting you add physical buttons for menus, power control, or navigation. A right-angle 26-pin connector provides access to the remaining GPIO via a ribbon cable and Cobbler breakout.

Key Features

• 2.4" TFT Display – 320×240 resolution with 16-bit colour (65,536 colours)
• Resistive Touchscreen – Built-in touch overlay for interactive input
• SPI Interface – Uses hardware SPI pins (SCK, MOSI, MISO, CE0, CE1) plus GPIO 24 and 25
• 5 Tactile Switch Pads – Optional button positions wired to GPIO for custom UI (switches sold separately)
• 26-Pin GPIO Breakout – Right-angle connector for accessing remaining GPIO via ribbon cable
• HAT Form Factor – Plugs directly onto any Pi with a 2×20 header
• Custom Kernel Support – Easy framebuffer installation over standard Raspberry Pi OS
