MOD-LCD2.8RTP

TFT COLOR LCD module with UEXT connector for ESP32-EVB and ESP32-POE

Using MOD-LCD2.8RTP requires non-standard SPI for the display and I2C for the touch screen

The non-standard part of the SPI is the lack of MISO which is Data/Command selection pin (refer to controller's datasheet) which has to be set as output.

UEXT pinout:

UEXT column 1UEXT column 2Function
1 - 3.3V2 - GNDPower pins
3 - NOT USED4 - NOT USEDUART pins not used
5 - SCL6 - SDAI2C pins used for touch component
7 - D/C8 - MOSISPI pins sans MISO used for display
9 - CLK10 - CSSPI CLK/CS for display

If you are using I2C, then the RX wire can also be used to control the brightness. This requires midfying the SJ2 jumper. Refer to the schematic around FET1.

Questions

How big is the MOD LCD2.8RTP Rev D PCB?

It measures 50 × 86 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the MOD LCD2.8RTP Rev D use?

44 parts, built around the WPM2015-3/TR. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the MOD LCD2.8RTP Rev D KiCad files?

From the OLIMEX/MOD-LCD2.8RTP repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is HARDWARE/SCHEMATICS/Hardware-revision-D/MOD-LCD2.8RTP_Rev_D.kicad_pcb and its schematic HARDWARE/SCHEMATICS/Hardware-revision-D/MOD-LCD2.8RTP_Rev_D.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the MOD LCD2.8RTP Rev D design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the Apache-2.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
