Graphics Test

We have a library with example code ready to go for use with these TFTs. The library is not

incredibly fast and optimized but its a good start and can easily be ported to other micrcontrollers.

However, we'll assume you're using an Arduino.

Our github repository (http://adafru.it/d4d) contains all the code and examples you'll need for driving

the TFT. You can download the latest ZIP by clicking the button below

Download the Adafruit ILI9341 Library

http://adafru.it/d4e

Uncompress the folder and rename it Adafruit_ILI9341 make sure that inside that folder is the

Adafruit_ILI9341.cpp and Adafruit_ILI9341.h files. Then copy it to your

arduinosketchfolder/libraries folder. For more details, especially for first-time library installers, check

out our great tutorial at http://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-all-about-arduino-libraries-install-

use (http://adafru.it/aYM)

You're not done yet! You will also need to get the Adafruit GFX graphics core (http://adafru.it/aJa) -

this is the general purpose graphics drawing library (the ILI9341 library just handles the low level

stuff). Click this button to grab it if you don't have it yet

Download Adafruit GFX Library

http://adafru.it/cBB

Uncompress the folder and rename it Adafruit_GFX make sure that inside that folder is the cpp and

.h files. Then copy it to your arduinosketchfolder/libraries folder like before
