240x160 lcd display module graphic cob — A 240 x 160 dot graphic LCD module in COB construction with an RA8806 controller and a white LED backlight, a step up in dot count from the 240 x 128 format for screens that carry graphics alongside text.

FAQ
What controller does the 240x160 module use?
An RA8806. Unlike the simpler dot matrix controllers in this range, the RA8806 includes display RAM on chip and can also drive a 4-wire resistive touch panel, so a separate touch controller is not needed.
Can the 240x160 be supplied with a touch panel?
Yes. A 4-wire resistive touch panel can be bonded to the module and read through the RA8806, which keeps the component count down compared with adding a discrete touch controller.
How much memory does the 240x160 frame buffer take?
240 x 160 dots at 1 bit per dot is 4800 bytes. The RA8806 holds this in its own display RAM, so the host microcontroller only sends drawing commands.
How does the 240x160 compare with the 240x128?
It adds 32 dot rows at the same width, which gives room for a header line plus graphics without scrolling, and the RA8806 controller brings touch support that the T6963C and RA8835 builds do not have.
