tft display esp32 brands

The Makerfabs 3.5 inch TFT Touch is great but the refresh rate is always a problem, some customers feedback they want a higher speed display. The ESP32-S2 Parallel TFT has a much higher refresh rate, but the disadvantage is the lack of Bluetooth...

That is why this latest ESP32-S3 Parallel TFT, compares to the S2 version, not only more SRAM and ROM, the Bluetooth 5.0 make it fit for applications such as local monitoring/controlling.

This 3.5" 320x480 TFT LCD driver is ILI9488, it uses 16bits parallel line for communication with ESP32-S3, the main clock could be up to 20MHz, making the display smooth enough for video displays. With this display, you can freely to create more IoT display projects, check the demo project in the video:

Same as the S2 version, there 2 onboard Mabee pins(A I2c and an IOs) with the breakout connectors, to connect the ESP32-S2 display with sensors/ actuators, suitable for IoT applications.

This ESP32 4.3 inch IPS display could be an ideal displayer& controller for IoT applications. Its high lightness IPS display with a resolution of 800*480 makes the display effect beautiful, together with 5 points capacitive touch, great for applications such as home automation; There onboard SD card and RTC, to make it possible to record/play filed data. Also, there 2 Mabee/ Grove connectors, so the users can connect kinds of sensors to this board, to create personal prototype projects instantly.

The ESP32-S3 has WiFi& Bluetooth 5.0, and 8M PSRAM ESP32-S3 is used in this product, with 16M flash, to make it competent for more advanced applications.

It seems the Adafruit crew embraced this ethos with enthusiasm, as the latest tweets from their Twitter account tease us with renders of the soon-to-be-released ESP32-S2 TFT Feather.

At first glance, this seems to be a logical upgrade to the former ESP32 Feather boards, swapping out the ESP32 module and USB-Serial converter, for the hot, new ESP32-S2-MINI module.

With a resolution of 135 x 240 pixels, packed into 1.14" (diagonal), this display is the same one we"ve seen presenting pixel perfect pictures on previous projects — the very same one offered for standalone use on an Adafruit breakout boardhere.

Wired into the fast 40MHz SPI bus of the ESP32-S2, this board can refresh this pixel-packed panel at a theoretical maximum of 77 fps — that"s way more than is needed for liquid smooth animations - perfect to make use of some of the recent workwe"ve seenfromBitBank Software, and theiranimatedGIFlibraries perhaps!

This is a project in the incubator phase — Adafruit has thrown open a welcome reception to any suggestions that we can throw their way. Check out theTwitter threadfor more updates, or to chip in if you"ve got a suggestion for the next ESP32-S2 board to grace our shelves!

ESP32 development boards with a camera are becoming very popular among the maker community. There are several models with different features like microSD card support, microphone, screen, and much more for a very reasonable price. These boards allow you to build projects with image, video streaming, face recognition and detection, and other AI applications. Do you know what’s the best ESP32 camera board for your project?

The ESP32-CAM AI-Thinker is one of the most popular ESP32 development boards with a camera – it comes with a lot of useful features and costs around $7 or less!

It features an ESP32-S chip and comes with a “regular” 2MP OV2640 camera. This board has 4MB PSRAM, which is used for buffering images from the camera into video streaming or other tasks and allows you to use higher quality in your pictures without crashing the ESP32.

The ESP32-CAM board comes with an on-board antenna, but also with an IPEX connector allowing you to alternatively use an external antenna to improve the Wi-Fi communication range.

One of the major drawbacks of the ESP32-CAM is that it doesn’t have USB-to-UART interface. This means that you can’t connect the ESP32-CAM directly to your computer using a USB cable. You need to use an FTDI programmer. Nonetheless, this is one of the most versatile and cheapest ESP32 development boards with a camera.

This development board comes with the ESP32-Wrover-E chip (with PSRAM). It comes with the OV2640 camera and it is easy to use and set up. It has a USB-to-UART converter so it’s straightforward to upload code to the board. You just need to connect a USB cable to the board and connect it to your computer to upload code or apply power. There’s no need for extra circuitry or an FTDI programmer.

It comes with several exposed GPIOs if you want to connect other peripherals. Additionally, if you’re not using the camera, you can use it as a regular ESP32 with a wide number of available GPIOs. It comes with RESET and BOOT buttons, which makes it easy to reset the board or put it in flashing mode if needed.

When programming this board using Arduino IDE, make sure you select the board ESP32 Wrover Module and in the partition scheme select Huge APP (3MB No OTA/1MB SPIFFS).

There are several different versions of M5-Stack ESP32 boards with cameras. The M5-Camera A or M5-Camera B like all the other boards featured here comes with the OV2640 camera. It has 4MB PSRAM—so, you shouldn’t have problems taking pictures and streaming with higher quality.

The TTGO T-Camera Plus comes with all the functionalities we would want in such a development board and for a very reasonable price. The board comes with microSD card support, a microphone, support for a 3.7V lithium battery as well as a battery management circuit, a 1.3 TFT display (color screen), microUSB interface, and on-board reset button.

This camera features a OV2640 camera, a 0.96 inch SSD1306 OLED display, a grove connector (ideal to connect I2C devices), a battery connector, a PIR motion sensor, an on-board RESET button, and a function button connected to GPIO 34. It also features 8MB PSRAM, but it doesn’t support a microSD card.

The TTGO T-Journal is a $12-$15 ESP32 Camera Development Board with an OV2640 camera, an external antenna, an I2C SSD1306 0.91 inch OLED display, some exposed GPIOs, function button, a battery connector, and a micro-USB interface.

The OLED display is a great addition to the board. You can display the board IP address, or any errors while debugging. There are four accessible GPIOs. Two of them are for I2C communication and the other two are perfect to connect servo motors (you can also connect other peripherals).

This is another ESP32 board with a camera from M5-Stack. This ESP32-Camera doesn’t have PSRAM. In practical terms, this means the camera is not able to do face recognition and detection and doesn’t support picture resolution higher than SVGA (800×600). You may also have a hard time with video streaming. Some people reported that his camera heats up very fast with video streaming. Usually, when you get one of these boards, you also get a heat sink precisely because of that.

In this article, we’ve reviewed 8 different ESP32 camera development boards. All boards feature the OV2640 2MP camera and you can program them using Arduino IDE. The best camera for you will really depend on your project requirements. We compiled all this information so that it’s easier for you to pick up the best board for what you have in mind.

In our opinion, the ESP32-CAM AI-Thinker is the most versatile for beginners (and it’s also cheaper) but it needs an FTDI programmer to upload code, or an ESP32-CAM MB programmer. If you don’t want to use the FTDI programmer there are other boards to choose from, I personally like the Freenove ESP32 Wrover board.

Good points. I’m not interesting in the relay, would rather have a board without it. While you end up with an additional circuit board is pretty much any use of this, having pretty much all the esp32 pins exposed give considerable flexibility.

we have designed KC868-AG by ESP32 module, it’s easy to use ESPHome for home assistant. You can define RF buttons and IR buttons to control TV or air conditioner by IR signal.

This Elecrow terminal is a microcontroller based on the ESP32 master. It adopts Xtensa 32-bit LX7 dual-core processor with a main frequency of up to 240Mhz, supports 2.4GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5 (LE), and can easily handle common edge terminal device application scenarios, such as industrial control, agricultural production environment detection and processing, intelligent logistics monitoring, smart home scenarios and more.

This terminal also has a 3.5-inch parallel RGB interface capacitive touch screen with a resolution of 320*480 to ensure perfect image output at a frame rate (FPS) of 60. On the back of this terminal, we have introduced 4 Crowtail interfaces, which can be used with our Crowtail series sensors, plug and play, and create more interesting projects quickly and conveniently. In addition, it is also equipped with an SD card slot for extended storage (SPI leads) and a buzzer function. It support ESP-IDF and Arduino IDE development, and is compatible with Python/Micropython/Arduino. It also support LVGL, which is the most popular free and open-source embedded graphics library to create beautiful UIs for any MCU, MPU and display type.  The onboard charging circuit and lithium battery interface can use the type-c power supply interface to supply power and charge the battery at the same time, providing more outdoor scene expansion possibilities.

The ESP32 is a series of low-cost, low-power microcontrollers with integrated Wi-Fi and dual-mode Bluetooth, developed by the Chinese company Espressif Systems. It"s a successor to their ESP8266 microcontroller. It"s based on an Xtensa dual-core (or single-core) 32-bit LX6 microprocessor, operating at 160 or 240 MHz, and features 4 Mbyte of flash and 520 Kbytes of RAM.

Several manufacturers have made boards based on the ESP32, and here I"ve reviewed a selection of five different ones that I can recommend for use with uLisp.

On the ESP32 there are 34 GPIO pins: 0-19, 21-23, 25-27, and 32-39. A GPIO Matrix allows you to route any pin to a specified signal within the processor. However, for simple GPIO input and output there are direct ways of accessing or controlling the pins, which is what the following example uses

It"s based on the ESP-WROOM-32 version of the ESP32, and uses the Silicon Labs CP2104 USB to serial chip for USB connectivity. A bonus is a JST connector for a Lipo battery, and a Lipo charger to allow the battery to be charged from the USB port.

Again, it"s based on the ESP-WROOM-32 version of the ESP32, and appears to use the Silicon Labs CP2102, although there are no markings on the chip on my sample board.

To use the board with an SD card you need to change the SPI pin settings tocorrespond to the connections on the SD card socket. The easiest way is to edit the esp32/pins_arduino.h file:

The board includes a 128x64 OLED display, which is based on the SH1106 driver chip. Note that the I2C display is connected to pins 26 (SDA) and 27 (SCL), so you need to edit the esp32/pins_arduino.h file to:

The routine (plot x y) plots a point on the display, where x can be from 0 to 127 and y from 0 to 63, and (plot 0 0) is the lower left-hand corner. Note that plot can only plot a function; ie only one point can be plotted in each column. The routine (test) plots two cycles of a sine wave.

"Upper layer" main development board contains ESP32-PICO-D4 SiP, battery connector & charger circuit with LiPo charge status LEDs, Reset & pull-up IO0 buttons, and a green LED on GPIO4.

The ESP32-LyraTD-MSC Audio-Mic HDK (hardware development kit) combines the ESP32-LyraTD-MSC ("audio-mic development board") with a secondary "top" board.

The ESP32 touch sensor development kit, ESP32-Sense Kit, is used for evaluating and developing ESP32 touch sensor system. ESP32-Sense Kit consists of one motherboard and multiple daughterboards. The motherboard contains a display unit, a main control unit and a debug unit. The daughterboards have touch electrodes in different combinations or shapes, such as linear slider, wheel slider, matrix buttons and spring buttons, depending on the application scenarios. Users can design and add their own daughterboards for special usage cases.
