adafruit tft lcd breakout pricelist
The 2.2" display has 320x240 color pixels. Unlike the low-cost "Nokia 6110" and similar LCD displays, which are CSTN type and thus have poor color and slow refresh, this display is a true TFT! The TFT driver (ILI9341 or compatible) can display full 18-bit color (262,144 shades!). And the LCD will always come with the same driver chip so there are no worries that your code will not work from one to the other.
The breakout has the TFT display soldered on (it uses a delicate flex-circuit connector) as well as an ultra-low-dropout 3.3V regulator and a 3/5V level shifter so you can use it with 3.3V or 5V power and logic. They also placed a microSD card holder so you can easily load full-color bitmaps from a FAT16/FAT32 formatted microSD card. The microSD card is not included.
Of course, Adafruit wouldn"t just leave you with a datasheet and a "good luck!" - they"ve written a full open-source graphics library that can draw pixels, lines, rectangles, circles, text, and bitmaps as well as example code. The code is written for Arduino but can be easily ported to your favorite microcontroller! Wiring is easy, we strongly encourage using the hardware SPI pins of your Arduino as software SPI is noticeably slower when dealing with this size display. Check the example sketches for wiring help until we get a detailed wiring tutorial written!
This display breakout also features a 18-pin "EYESPI" standard FPC connector with flip-top connector. You can use a 18-pin 0.5mm pitch FPC cable to connect to all the GPIO pins, for when you want to skip the soldering.
As of November 2022 - Adafruit have updated this TFT breakout with a EYESPI connector to make cabling easier with an 18-pin FPC. They also used Adafruit Pinguin to make a lovely silkscreen. The board is otherwise the same size, pinout, and functionality.
In addition to full Arduino Shields we have included many individual sensors and modules from the Grove system and also added a bunch of useful parts as breakout boards. More advanced users can even place and wire their own custom hardware directly on the schematic using the thousands of simulation models in Proteus VSM.

I use the $ 103.40 USD Arduino Pro PortentaH7 Dual Core Micro-Controller with the $45.99 USD Breakout Board and $63.00 USD LoRa Vision Shield and/or $47.15 USD Ethernet Vision Shield, possibly more shields later.

The $129 USD Sony Spresense Kit with Breakout Board and Camera and now works on the Arduino IDE. Absolutely nothing wrong with this board, I have just not yet got it doing Machine Learning on the Arduino IDE yet. Note: uses LED0, LED1, LED2, LED4 instead of LEDB, LEDG, LEDR
Circuit-Python Another version of Python for micro-controllers by Adafruit which is a very maker friendly company. Does not support the Portenta but supports lots of other boards
Though I do not anticipate it charging completely just by tilting the lid, I anticipate a 5W panel in the sun for 4-5 hrs might be enough to charge it for at least a couple hours of use every day. According to user W.H. Heydt, a Pi Zero can run for 12hrs with a 3.5" TFT with a 4000Mah battery:
I have ordered a 3.5 TFT" screen, but it is more for proof of concept and would not suit virtually any office productivity or e-readers. Fitting a HAT onto it may be tricky, since I would like to position the Pi Zero under the screen but near the edge so that the SD card and HDMI is accessible from the side of the laptop.
I still need to solder the GPIO header and the USB A Jack. I am awaiting a double ended 2-pin JST cable to connect the solar charger to the 5V USB Boost. As some users have reported, a 4Ah battery can last 12hrs on a Pi Zero with a 3.5" screen. I am using an Adafruit 2Ah 3.7V battery.

Did not purchase, but considered: https://www.amazon.com/Voltaic-Systems- ... B07ZS3WYZY I know that Voltaic Systems has a V25 6000Mah battery with pass through charger- that is, the ability to charge the battery while simultaneously discharging from it to power a Pi or other device, I am opting to use slightly cheaper materials to test out first, so I bought an open box 2000Mah Adafruit battery from Microcenter for $9: Shipping Lithium batteries can cost more from Adafruit because it requires UPS Ground, so I went with a local pickup. A DC 5.5x2.1mm Female to Micro USB Male Plug Charge Cable Plug would be needed though to pair it with a solar panel, from what I"ve read.
