How It Works
The display communicates with the microcontroller through the SPI interface. The controller sends graphical or text data to the display, which then renders the information on the TFT screen.
A typical connection consists of:
Microcontroller → SPI Interface → TFT Display → Text / Graphics / Sensor Data
The SPI interface makes the module suitable for applications where available GPIO pins are limited.
