Description

An expanded 2.8" (320 x 240 pixel) IPS LCD display add on for Raspberry Pi Pico / Pico W, with four buttons, an RGB LED and Qw/ST connectivity.

Pico Display 2.8" features a bold, credit-card sized 320 x 240 pixel LCD display with lush colours and great IPS viewing angles. The display is surrounded with four tactile buttons and an RGB LED is added for use as an indicator or just for ambient rainbows. There's also a Qw/ST connector so you can connect up breakouts (or other I2C devices) easily using a Qwiic/STEMMA QT cable.

Support for this display is baked into Pimoroni's custom build of MicroPython so it's super easy to draw text, shapes and images onto the screen with Pimoroni's homebrew graphics library PicoGraphics. ST7789 displays are widely supported so it should be possible to use it with other Raspberry Pi Pico compatible ecosystems too!

Features

  • 2.8” IPS LCD screen (320 x 240 pixels)
    • Driver IC: ST7789V
    • Luminance: 250 cd/m2
    • Active area: 43.2 x 57.5mm
  • 4 x tactile buttons
  • RGB LED (with cuttable traces for if you'd prefer to use these pins for something else)
  • Qw/ST (Qwiic/STEMMA QT) connector for attaching breakouts
  • Intriguing new SP/CE connector
  • Pre-soldered socket headers for attaching to Pico
  • Compatible with Raspberry Pi Pico/Pico W*.
  • Fully assembled
  • No soldering required (as long as your Pico has header pins attached).

A Raspberry Pi Pico / Pico W is not included so make sure to grab one!

Your Pico will need to have pin headers soldered to it (with the pins pointing downwards) to attach to the add-on boards. You could pick up a pre-soldered Pico H or Pico WH if you don't want to solder on the headers yourself.
