Adafruit Featherwing~
You can run openHASP on the Adafruit HUZZAH32 – ESP32 Feather Board with a TFT Featherwing display. We provide pre-build firmware for this hardware combo. You can pick the 2.4" or 3.5" touchscreen.
The HUZZAH32 – ESP32 Feather Boards come in 3 versions:
The TFT Featherwing comes in 2 sizes:
- TFT FeatherWing - 2.4" 320x240 Touchscreen: ILI9341 with STMPE610 resistive touch
- TFT FeatherWing - 3.5" 480x320 Touchscreen: HX8357D with STMPE610 resistive touch
Note
Don't use the ESP8266 based Feather HUZZAH because it lacks both in memory and MCU power.
Instructions~
The HUZZAH32 – ESP32 and TFT Featherwings are plug-and-play. You only need to upload the firmware via the USB port. If you get a version with pre-soldered headers then no soldering is required to get started!
Check out the Adafruit TFT Featherwing tutorial on learn.adafruit.com. It contains more detailed information, tutorials and wiring diagrams.
Backlight~
By default the display is always on. To get the dimmable backlight working you do need to solder 2 pads!
There is a Lite pin which is not connected to any pads but you can connect it to control the backlight.
You can connect it to a PWM output pin, like GPIO 21:
