Unlike resistive touchscreens that need a stylus or fingernail, this capacitive version responds to a light finger touch and features a polished black bezel with a glass overlay for a clean, modern look.\n\nThe display communicates over SPI for graphics and I2C for the capacitive touch controller. All 40 GPIO pins are broken out underneath so you can still connect a GPIO ribbon cable. Four built-in slim tactile switches are wired to GPIO for building simple user interfaces like power buttons or menu navigation.\n\nKey Features\n\n\n2.8\" TFT Display – 320×240 resolution with 16-bit colour (65,536 colours)\n\nCapacitive Touchscreen – Finger-friendly touch input with glass overlay and black bezel\n\nSPI + I2C Interface – SPI for display (SCK, MOSI, MISO, CE0, GPIO 24/25); I2C (SDA/SCL) for touch controller, shareable with other I2C devices\n\n4 Tactile Buttons – Pre-installed slim switches wired to GPIO for custom UI\n\n40-Pin GPIO Passthrough – All pins brought out underneath for ribbon cable access\n\nFully Assembled – Ready to plug in with tactile switches pre-installed\n\nCustom Kernel Support – Easy framebuffer installation over standard Raspberry Pi OS\n\n\nCompatibility\n\nRaspberry Pi Zero / Zero 2 W\nRaspberry Pi 1 Model A+ and B+\nRaspberry Pi 2, 3, 4, 5\nAny Pi with a 2×20 GPIO header (not compatible with original Pi 1 Model A/B 2×13 header)\n\n\nAlso Consider\n\n\nPiTFT 2.8\" Resistive – Same size with resistive touch, fits the original Pi 1 Model A/B form factor\n\nPiTFT 2.4\" HAT – Smaller resistive touchscreen in HAT form factor\n\nPiTFT 2.2\" HAT – Compact non-touch version\n\n\nIdeal For\n\nTouch-enabled interfaces and portable Pi projects\nMini consoles, retro gaming handhelds, and media players\nIoT dashboards and interactive control panels\nPyGame and SDL-based graphical applications\n\n\nPackage Contents\n\n1× Adafruit PiTFT Plus 2.8\" Capacitive (fully assembled with display, touchscreen, and tactile switches)\n\n\n\nNote: Raspberry Pi and enclosure are sold separately.\n\n\nResources\n\nPiTFT 2.8\" Capacitive Touch Learning Guide\n","vendor":"Adafruit","product_type":"physical","in_stock":false,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":9596,"title":"Default Title","sku":"AF-2423","price":87.7,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":false,"available_quantity":0,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
