1.8-inch LCD for Micro:bit: a bright, full-color TFT display add-on that brings real-time visuals to Micro:bit projects. It uses a simple SPI interface for fast updates, includes onboard level shifting and power regulation for plug-and-play reliability, and comes with sample code to get you drawing text, graphics, and sensor dashboards in minutes—perfect for data visualization, mini games, and classroom demos. This is a colorful display module designed for the BBC micro:bit, 1.8-inch diagonal, 160×128 pixels, capable of displaying 65K colors. Tired of the 5×5 LED matrix? Time to get a tiny monitor for your micro:bit—this would be the ideal choice.
