The Adafruit Feather ecosystem is so wealthy with {hardware} range, we wished to share them, one every day. In the present day is the Adafruit ESP32-S2 TFT Feather – STEMMA QT – 4MB Flash + 2 MB PSRAM!
We’ve obtained a brand new machine right here at Adafruit, it could possibly uncover your deepest wishes. Don’t consider me? I’ll flip it on proper now to show it to you! What, you need limitless mozzarella sticks? OK properly, that’s not one thing we are able to present. However we are able to present your second-deepest need: an ESP32-S2 Feather board with a inbuilt IPS TFT colour show. It’s obtained all of the gooeyness of a mozzarella stick options of a Feather foremost board, the comforting heat of an ESP32-S2 WiFi microcontroller, and the crispness of a 240×135 pixel colour TFT show. All that and it’ll even plug in properly right into a breadboard, terminal block wing, or Feather Doubler and even simply stack on prime of one other wing.
This feather comes with native USB and 4 MB flash + 2 MB of PSRAM, so it’s good to be used with CircuitPython or Arduino with low-cost WiFi. Native USB means it could possibly act like a keyboard or a disk drive. WiFi means its superior for IoT initiatives. And Feather means it really works with the big neighborhood of FeatherWings for expandability.
The ESP32-S2 is a highly-integrated, low-power, 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi System-on-Chip (SoC) resolution that now has built-in native USB in addition to another attention-grabbing new applied sciences like Time of Flight distance measurements. With its state-of-the-art energy and RF efficiency, this SoC is a perfect selection for all kinds of utility situations regarding the Web of Issues (IoT), wearable electronics, and sensible properties.
Please observe the Feather ESP32-S2 has a single-core 240 MHz chip, so it gained’t be as quick as ESP32’s with dual-core. Additionally, there is no such thing as a Bluetooth assist. Nonetheless, we’re tremendous excited in regards to the ESP32-S2’s native USB which unlocks a whole lot of capabilities for superior interfacing! This ESP32-S2 mini-module we’re utilizing on the Feather comes with 4 MB flash and a pair of MB PSRAM so you possibly can buffer huge JSON recordsdata for parsing!
The colour TFT is related to the SPI pins, and makes use of extra pins for management that aren’t uncovered to the breakout pads. It’s the identical show as you see right here, with 240×135 pixels and is IPS so that you get vibrant colour at any angle. The backlight can be related to a separate pin so you possibly can PWM the backlight up and down as desired.
