A Feather board without ambition is a Feather board without FeatherWings! Spice up your Feather project with a beautiful 3.5" touchscreen display shield with built in microSD card socket. This TFT display is 3.5" diagonal with a bright 6 white-LED backlight. You get a massive 480x320 pixels with individual 16-bit color pixel control. It has way more resolution than a black and white 128x64 display, and twice as much as our 2.4" TFT FeatherWing.

As a bonus, this display comes with a resistive touchscreen attached to it already, so you can detect finger presses anywhere on the screen.

New! As of Nov 15, 2023 we've made a big redesign to this product: We now use the TSC2007 instead of the discontinued STMPE811 touchscreen controller. The screen and micro SD card are the same but any touchscreen code will need to be updated to use our Arduino or CircuitPython library. We've also updated the reset button to be right-angle and added a STEMMA QT port.

This FeatherWing uses a SPI display, touchscreen and SD card socket. It works with any and all Feathers but, given the large display, it works best with our faster boards like the ESP32-S2, ESP32-S3, RP2040, M4, M0, nRF52, WICED, and Teensy. We also include a I2C resistive touchscreen controller with a separate IRQ line so you only need one additional pin to add a high quality touchscreen controller with interrupt support! One more pin is used for an optional SD card that can be used for storing images for display.

This 'Wing comes fully assembled with dual sockets for your Feather to plug into. You get two sockets per pin so you can plug in wires if you want to connect to Feather pins. Alternatively, each pin has a large square pad on the PCB for direct soldering.
