## 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. See [this forum thread](https://forum.core-electronics.com.au/t/adafruit-pi-tft-resistive-touch-screens-2-2-2-4-and-2-8/8970) before following the guide.*
