1.44” and 1.77” colour TFTs come with SPI for handheld systems
The company is initially offering 1.44” and 1.77” colour TFT modules featuring the simple Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI), which simplifies a design, as the receiving hardware can be a simple shift register rather than a full UART. SPI is easily used to send data between microcontrollers and small peripherals such as shift registers, sensors or SD cards. It utilises separate clock and data lines, along with a select line for choice of device to communicate with.
A key feature of the 1.77” andersDX SPI displays is their very low profile, streamlined package of just 2.4mm deep, making it suitable for compact portable electronics. The 1.77″ diagonal module has a high contrast ratio of 700, a high brightness of 280cd/m2 and draws just 3mA. The 1.44” diagonal version offers a contrast ratio of 350 and a brightness of 120 cd/m2. Its package is 2.7mm thick. Both modules operate in the 20° to +70°C temperature range.
