A handy little LCD screen for adding readouts to your projects. This 0.96" SPI LCD has a 2:1 aspect ratio, wide viewing angles (IPS) and works with Raspberry Pi or Arduino.
It is bright, has excellent resolution and you will be able to display small information such as timers, clocks, sensor readings, etc.
Protected against polarity inversion
A Python library allows to drive this display. It allows you to easily display images, text or graphics, and even display animated GIFs! There is an online installer to have the library fully configured for you. Just open a terminal and type:
curl https://get.pimoroni.com/st7735 | bash
Connect it to your Raspberry Pi
Our Python library is configured to use SPI 1 by default on the Pi (BCM 7 for CS, BCM 11 for SCK and BCM 10 for MOSI), BCM 9 for DC and BCM 19 for the backlight.
Here are the pins to connect between your 0.96" LCD and the GPIO of your Pi (note that these are the BCM pin numbers):
- 3-5V to any 5V or 3V pin
- CS to BCM 7
- SCK to BCM 11
- MOSI to BCM 10
- DC to BCM 9
- BL to BCM 19
- GND to any ground pin
You can of course use other pins with your LCD, but you will have to change them accordingly when you instantiate the display in your code.
