DIY: 2.8" TFT touchscreen and the LCDuino

a fairly simple (about 10 pins needed, mostly D and some A) interface for a color touchscreen. arduino powered (and somewhat slow) but ok enough for showing soft-buttons, labels, colors, pixmaps and such.

 

to keep things simple, I used an IDC connector pair on the TFT and made the LCDuino side the 'clean-up' side. almost all arduino pins are taken over by this device. I plan to have this system send UI commands over the uart/serial port to the main (other) arduino that runs the primary embedded system's function.
