The Adafruit Mini PiTFT - 135x240 Color TFT Add-on for Raspberry Pi is your little TFT pal, ready to snap onto any and all Raspberry Pi computers, to give you a little display. The Mini PiTFT comes with a full color 240x135 pixel IPS display with great visibility at all angles. The TFT uses only the SPI port so its very fast, and Adafruit leave plenty of pins remaining available for buttons, LEDs, sensors, etc. It's also nice and compact so it will fit into any case.

This display is super small, only about 1.14" diagonal, but since it is an IPS display, its very readable with high contrast and visibility. Adafruit had a little space on the top so they give you two tactile buttons on GPIO pins so you can create a simple user interface. On the bottom Adafruit have a Qwiic/STEMMA QT connector for I2C sensors and device so you can plug and play any of Adafruit's STEMMA QT devices.

Using the display is very easy, Adafruit have a kernel driver and Python library for the ST7789 chipset. You can set it up as a console output so you can have text and user interface through the Raspberry Pi OS or you draw images, text, whatever you like, using the Python imaging library. Adafruit's tests showed ~15 FPS update rates so you can do animations or simple video.

Comes completely pre-assembled and tested so you don't need to do anything but plug it in and install Adafruit's Python code! Works with any Raspberry Pi computer.
