This is a powerful 5.0 HMI,a 5.0 TFT 800x480 resistive touch screen display, 16M Flash, 2KByte RAM, 65k colors.
Nextion is a seamless Human Machine Interface (HMI) solution that provides a control and visualization interface between a human and a process, machine, application or appliance. Nextion is mainly applied to Internet of thing (IoT) or consumer electronics field. It is the best solution to replace the traditional LCD and LED Nixie tube.
This solution includes a hardware part (a series of TFT boards) and a software part (the Nextion editor). The Nextion TFT board uses only one serial port to communicate. It lets users avoid the hassle of wiring. We noticed that most engineers spend much time in application development but get unsatisfactory results.
In this situation, Nextion editor has mass components such as button, text, progress bar, slider, instrument panel etc. to enrich your interface design. And the drag-and-drop function ensures that you spend less time in programming, which will reduce your 99% development workloads. With the help of this WYSIWYG editor, GUI designing is a piece of cake.
Its easy to adapt Nextion family HMI to existing projects, you just need to provide it a UART. Uploading TFT file via sd card is faster than 4pin serial port, but pls check card is FAT32 format and no more than 32GB.
