TIMI is a 0.96” TFT LCD display module that is driven directly by a PIXXI-28 graphics processor from 4D Labs. It features a unique MatesBus interface, which is simple to use in both breadboard applications, as well as on adapters or directly into developed products. TIMI’s main interface is a 3.3V level Asynchronous Serial UART and features three GPIO which can be used as Digital or Analog inputs, Digital Outputs, Controller I2C Communication or PWM Audio output. These interfaces arm TIMI with resources to be either a stand-alone controller, a Host driven peripheral, or a tethered test instrument, while being capable of interfacing and powering external devices itself. TIMI-96 utilizes the BBM MatesBus, which is a unique interface pinout designed to be simple and easy to use. The MatesBus is made up of two rows of five pins, 0.1” (2.54mm) pitch, spaced 0.3” (7.62mm) apart, ideal for direct plug into a breadboard, or compatible adapter or development board. While the TIMI-96 can be orientated in any of its four positions, Portrait, Landscape, Portrait Reversed and Landscape Reversed, its natural position forms an upside-down ‘T’ shape and is designed to interface with the bottom of a breadboard, sitting closest to the User, leaving the top part of the breadboard free for components and wiring. TIMI was created as a flexible design aid, primarily to simulate components readouts and meters, which would otherwise be cumbersome or demanding on hardware resources for breadboard or electronic development. Simulating component readouts allows accelerated development and retains the often-limited GPIO hardware associated with many developments. TIMI was designed for engineers, hobbyists, and students, from beginner to advanced levels, designed to make breadboarding or project development, easier. - Powered by 4D Labs Pixxi-28 Graphics Processor. - 160×80 pixel resolution TFT LCD (non-touch). - 3.3V (5V tolerant) serial UART interface (300 to 2187500 Baud). - Controller I2C (3.3V level) interface bus. - 3 GPIO (3.3V level): 2 analog or I2C, 1 PWM Audio. - 16MB Flash Memory. - 32KB of Processor Flash Memory. - 14KB of Processor SRAM for User Variables. - 5Vdc supply input (3.3V possible). - Dedicated 3.3V 500mA power output for User. - Breadboard compatible pin headers (0.1” / 2.54mm). - RoHS and REACH compliant. - PCB is UL 94V-0 Flammability Rated. - Weight approx. 5.0 grams.
