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/ADA2298:1.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 2.8" display with 320x240 16-bit color pixels and a resistive touch overlay. The plate 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! **This updated design fits perfectly onto the Pi Zero, Pi 3, Pi 2 or Model A+, B+!** (Any Pi with a 2x20 connector) **Not for use with an old Pi 1 with 2x13 connector** If you'd like to use a 2.8" display with the original Pi A or Pi B, [ check out the Model B version](https://core-electronics.com.au/pitft-assembled-320x240-2-8-tft-touchscreen-for-raspberry-pi.html). This one also has all 40 pins GPIO pins brought out so you can connect a 40-pin GPIO cable underneath. [Now that it's the same outline as a Pi Zero/3/2/B+ it fits well on top of a Pi in Adafruit's Raspberry Pi Enclosure base](https://core-electronics.com.au/pi-model-b-case-base-various-colors.html) and [can use Adafruit's faceplate for a compact touchscreen Pi](https://core-electronics.com.au/faceplate-and-buttons-pack-for-2-8-pitfts-raspberry-pi-b-pi-2.html) The display and touchscreen 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 4 slim tactile switches wired to four 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. See below for the link to get the optional tact switches, they're not included. Use it for console access or easily pop up X11 onto the PiTFT for a mini monitor, although its rather small at 320x240. Instead, Adafruit recommend using PyGame or other SDL-drawing programs to write onto the frame buffer. **Raspberry Pi computer and enclosure not included!** As of July 27th, 2015 this display comes fully assembled and includes 4 tactile switches soldered on.
