Even a very small one with low memory and few pins available! The 1.9\" display has 320x170 16-bit full-color pixels and is an \u003cstrong\u003eIPS\u003c\/strong\u003e display, so the color looks great up to 80 degrees off-axis in any direction. The TFT driver (ST7789) is very similar to the popular ST7735, and tthe Arduino library supports it well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe breakout has the TFT display soldered on (it uses a delicate flex-circuit connector) as well as an ultra-low-dropout 3.3V regulator, auto-reset circuitry, and a 3\/5V level shifter so you can use it with 3.3V or 5V power and logic. Adafruit also had a little extra space, so they placed a microSD card holder so you can easily load full color bitmaps from a FAT16\/FAT32 formatted microSD card. The microSD card is not included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOf course, we wouldn't just leave you with a datasheet and a \"good luck!\" - \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/adafruit\/Adafruit-ST7735-Library\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eAdafruit have written a full open-source graphics Arduino library that can draw pixels, lines, rectangles, circles, text, and bitmaps as well as example code.\u003c\/a\u003e The code is written for Arduino but can be easily ported to your favorite microcontroller! Wiring is easy, we strongly encourage using the hardware SPI pins of your Arduino as software SPI is noticeably slower when dealing with this size display. \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/adafruit\/Adafruit_CircuitPython_RGB_Display\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eFor Raspberry Pi or other Single Board Computer Python users, there is a user-space Pillow-compatible library\u003c\/a\u003e.

You can use an 18-pin 0.5mm pitch FPC cable to connect to all the GPIO pins, for when you want to skip the soldering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note!\u003c\/strong\u003e This display is designed original for smartwatches and similar, where there's a glass over the screen. Without something gently holding the screen down, the backlight can eventually peel away from the TFT. (It's not destructive but it's unattractive) You can prevent this by, ideally, adding a plastic or glass cover\/overlay. If using bare, try dabbing a touch of E6000 or similar craft glue on the thin side edges, or using a thin piece of tape to keep the front TFT attached to the backlight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.9\" LCD TFT display\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in microSD slot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x11 header for easy breadboarding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 x 0.1\" \/ 2.5mm mounting holes in corners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTFT screen dimensions: ~46mm x 25mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverall dimension: 57.2mm x 36.6mm x 5.2mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting holes: 52mm x 31.7mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEYE SPI 18-pin FPC Connector:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVIN (3 to 5V DC power)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBacklight (3~5V logic PWM optional input)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGround\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSPI Clock (3~5V logic in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSPI MOSI (3~5V logic Microcontroller Out, Screen\/SD In)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSPI MISO (3~5V logic Microcontroller In, Screen\/SD Out)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTFT Data\/Command (3~5V logic in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTFT Reset (optional 3~5V logic in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTFT SPI Chip Select (3~5V logic in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSD Card SPI Chip Select (3~5V logic in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnused\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnused\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnused\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnused\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnused\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnused\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnused\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnused\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProduct Dimensions: 57.2mm x 36.6mm x 5.2mm \/ 2.3\" x 1.4\" x 0.2\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProduct Weight: 9.6g \/ 0.3oz\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Adafruit","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39802731167827,"sku":"ADA5394","price":16.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0174\/1800\/products\/5394-01.jpg?v=1648036365","url":"https:\/\/shop.pimoroni.com\/en-eu\/products\/adafruit-1-9-320x170-color-ips-tft-display-st7789","provider":"Pimoroni Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
