EYESPI Breakout Board - 18 Pin FPC Connector

Tax included, shipping and discounts calculated at checkout.


DESCRIPTION

One of the most recent display breakouts has come with a new feature: an 18-pin "EYE SPI" standard FPC connector with a flip-top connector. This is to be similar to a "STEMMA QT for displays" - a way to quickly connect and extend display wiring that uses a lot of SPI pins. In this case, a lot of SPI pins are needed, and you might want to use them across long distances so we would suggest going with an 18-pin 0.5mm pitch FPC.

Now you can connect to the displays, but what goes on the other side of the FPC? Here is one possibility - a simple breakout board that brings all the GPIO to a 0.1" spaced header, for breadboarding usage. Each pin usage is labelled, and for most display purposes you only need the left half of the display for power and SPI connectivity.

Please Note:

  • 18-pin EYESPI FPC cable not included.
