Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart. - **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/ADA2455:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.) - **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there. - **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works) - **Payment methods, purchase orders, policies and contact details:** https://core-electronics.com.au/llms.txt ## Description Is this not the cutest little display for the Raspberry Pi? It features a 2.4" display with 320x240 16-bit color pixels and a resistive touch overlay. The HAT uses the high speed SPI interface on the Pi and can use the mini display as a console, X window port, displaying images or video etc. Best of all it plugs right in on top! **It's designed to fit nicely onto the Pi Model Zero, A+, B+, Pi 2, Pi 3 - any Pi with a 2x20 connector.** This design uses the hardware SPI pins (SCK, MOSI, MISO, CE0, CE1) as well as GPIO #25 and #24. All other GPIO are unused. Since Adafruit had a tiny bit of space, there's 5 spots for optional [slim tactile switches](https://core-electronics.com.au/tactile-switch-buttons-6mm-slim-x-20-pack.html) wired to five GPIOs, that you can use if you want to make a basic user interface. For example, you can use one as a power on/off button. Adafruit have a right-angle 26-pin connector off to the side. You can connect a [classic 26-pin Raspberry Pi GPIO cable](https://core-electronics.com.au/gpio-ribbon-cable-for-raspberry-pi.html) in order to access the rest of the GPIO through a [Cobbler](https://core-electronics.com.au/adafruit-assembled-pi-cobbler-breakout-cable-for-raspberry-pi.html), etc. To make it super easy for use: Adafruit have created a custom kernel package based of off Notro's awesome framebuffer work, so you can install it over your existing Raspbian (or derivative) images in just a few commands. Each order ships with an assembled HAT with 2.4" TFT display with resistive touchscreen and a 2x20 female socket header. Some light soldering is required to attach the header but it is easy work for anyone with a soldering iron & solder.Alternatively, you can use a stacking type header instead if you'd like to plug a 2x20 GPIO cable on top **Raspberry Pi, Pi enclosure, 26-pin GPIO cable, tactile switches are not included!** [Adafruit's tutorial series shows you how to install the software, as well as calibrate the touchscreen, display videos, display images such as from your PiCam and more](https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-2-4-pitft-hat-with-resistive-touchscreen-mini-kit), ***However,** some of our customers have had issues with Pi 4s.
