Adafruit 2.8” TFT Touch Shield v2
Overview
The Adafruit 2.8” TFT Touch Shield v2 with a resolution of 320x240 pixels, is based on the ILI9341 controller. This shield comes with a resistive (STMPE610 controller) or capacitive (FT6206 controller) touchscreen. While the Zephyr RTOS supports display output to these screens, touchscreen input is supported only on Capacitive Touch version. More information about the shield can be found at the Adafruit 2.8” TFT Touch Shield v2 website [1].

Note
Touch controller IRQ line is not connected by default. You will need to
solder the ICSP_SI1 jumper to use it. You will also need to adjust
driver configuration and its Device Tree entry to make use of it.
Requirements
This shield can only be used with a board which provides a configuration for Arduino or Arduino Nano connectors and defines node aliases for SPI and GPIO interfaces (see Shields for more details).
Programming
Set --shield adafruit_2_8_tft_touch_v2 when you invoke west build. For example:
# From the root of the zephyr repository
west build -b nrf52840dk/nrf52840 --shield adafruit_2_8_tft_touch_v2 samples/subsys/display/lvgl
If the shield is connected to a board which has Arduino Nano connector,
set --shield adafruit_2_8_tft_touch_v2_nano when you invoke west build.
# From the root of the zephyr repository
west build -b arduino_nano_33_ble --shield adafruit_2_8_tft_touch_v2_nano samples/subsys/display/lvgl
