Overview

The Adafruit 4313 is a compact 1.3-inch TFT LCD breakout featuring a high-density 240x240 pixel resolution and an IPS wide-angle viewing panel. It utilizes the ST7789 controller over a high-speed SPI interface and includes an integrated microSD card slot for storing and loading bitmap images.

Why Choose This Part

This module features a built-in level shifter and a 3.3V regulator, making it safely compatible with both 3V and 5V logic and power systems. The IPS technology ensures vibrant color and consistent contrast even when viewed from extreme angles, unlike standard TN displays.

Applications

Handheld Instrumentation
Ideal for displaying high-resolution graphs and sensor data on portable diagnostic tools.
User Interface Prototyping
Rapid development of menu systems for microcontrollers like Arduino, CircuitPython, or ESP32.
Digital Photo Frames
Small-scale image viewers leveraging the onboard microSD slot for external asset storage.

Getting Started

Connect the display to your microcontroller via the SPI bus (SCK, MOSI, CS, DC, and RST pins). Use the Adafruit_GFX and Adafruit_ST7789 libraries for Arduino, or the ST7789 driver in CircuitPython for rapid graphics development.
