Hardware Connection

The TFT color display typically connects to the development board via SPI communication. The basic SPI wiring is as follows (actual pins may need adjustment based on your display’s datasheet):

• TFT VCC -> Development board 5V
• TFT GND -> Development board GND
• TFT SCL -> Development board SCK (Pin 13)
• TFT SDA -> Development board MOSI (Pin 11)
• TFT RES -> Development board Digital Pin 9
• TFT DC -> Development board Digital Pin 8
• TFT CS -> Development board Digital Pin 10
• TFT BLK -> Arduino 3.3V

Usage Method

Installing Library Files (skip this step if already installed)

1. Open the Arduino IDE.
2. Go to “Tools” > “Manage Libraries…”.
3. Search for “Adafruit ST7789” and “Adafruit GFX”, and install each library individually.

Enter the code:

For the 1.69-inch ST7789V3 screen with a resolution of 240x280 pixels, you need to adjust the screen initialization part of the code. Here’s a revised example:
