The shield is fully assembled - there are connectors that allow you to connect directly to Arduino without the need for soldering. Built-in RAM memory controller makes the microcontroller not loaded with the operations associated with the data display. The device uses only 5 pins: 3 on the SPI bus, 1 for the touch controller and 1 for readingmemory cards microSD.

Connection
Company Adafruit offers freegraphics libraries that allow you to create forms and display text. There is also available a library for reading where you touch the screen, the data is transferred in the form of axis X, Y.
In order to start the display with touch function, you should download and put in the folderArduinolibrariesthe following files:
- Library controller ILI9341
- Graphic library Adafruit GFX
- Library for support touch functions STMPE610
In the Arduino environment there will be new examples for ILI9341, for checking the display you can start, for example, a drawing programbreakouttouchpaint.
