## Description

The Adafruit PiTFT 2.8" is a colour touchscreen display designed for the Raspberry Pi. Featuring a 2.8-inch 320×240 pixel TFT with 16-bit colour and a resistive touch overlay, it works as a mini console, X Window display, image viewer, or video player — all driven over the Pi's high-speed SPI interface. This board was originally designed for the Pi 1 Model A/B form factor. It also works with any Pi with a 2×20 header (Pi Zero, Pi 2, 3, 4, A+, B+), though the PCB overhangs the USB ports by about 5 mm on those models. Key Features 2.8" 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 4 Tactile Switch Pads – Optional button positions wired to GPIO for custom UI (switches sold separately) Fully Assembled – Ready to plug into your Pi; only the optional tactile buttons require soldering Custom Kernel Support – Easy framebuffer installation over standard Raspberry Pi OS Compatibility Raspberry Pi 1 Model A and B (designed-for form factor) Raspberry Pi 1 Model A+ and B+, Pi 2, 3, 4, 5, Zero (PCB overhangs USB ports by ~5 mm) Also Consider PiTFT 2.4" HAT – Smaller touchscreen in proper HAT form factor, no overhang on modern Pis PiTFT 2.2" HAT – Compact non-touch version with 4 built-in tactile buttons Ideal For Touch-enabled menu systems and portable Pi interfaces Mini consoles and retro gaming projects PiCam preview and image/video display Interactive IoT dashboards and control panels Package Contents 1× Adafruit PiTFT 2.8" (fully assembled with display and resistive touchscreen) Note: Raspberry Pi and tactile switches are sold separately. The optional slim tactile buttons require basic soldering to install. Resources PiTFT 2.8" Learning Guide
