## Description

The Adafruit PiTFT Plus 2.8" Capacitive Touchscreen is a finger-friendly colour display for the Raspberry Pi. 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. The 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. Key Features 2.8" TFT Display – 320×240 resolution with 16-bit colour (65,536 colours) Capacitive Touchscreen – Finger-friendly touch input with glass overlay and black bezel SPI + I2C Interface – SPI for display (SCK, MOSI, MISO, CE0, GPIO 24/25); I2C (SDA/SCL) for touch controller, shareable with other I2C devices 4 Tactile Buttons – Pre-installed slim switches wired to GPIO for custom UI 40-Pin GPIO Passthrough – All pins brought out underneath for ribbon cable access Fully Assembled – Ready to plug in with tactile switches pre-installed Custom Kernel Support – Easy framebuffer installation over standard Raspberry Pi OS Compatibility Raspberry Pi Zero / Zero 2 W Raspberry Pi 1 Model A+ and B+ Raspberry Pi 2, 3, 4, 5 Any Pi with a 2×20 GPIO header (not compatible with original Pi 1 Model A/B 2×13 header) Also Consider PiTFT 2.8" Resistive – Same size with resistive touch, fits the original Pi 1 Model A/B form factor PiTFT 2.4" HAT – Smaller resistive touchscreen in HAT form factor PiTFT 2.2" HAT – Compact non-touch version Ideal For Touch-enabled interfaces and portable Pi projects Mini consoles, retro gaming handhelds, and media players IoT dashboards and interactive control panels PyGame and SDL-based graphical applications Package Contents 1× Adafruit PiTFT Plus 2.8" Capacitive (fully assembled with display, touchscreen, and tactile switches) Note: Raspberry Pi and enclosure are sold separately.
