The Adafruit Mini TFT – 0.96″ 160×80 guide has been updated to include the newer Revision B of the Adafruit 0.96″ 160×80 Color TFT Display , which has slightly different initialization code.

It’s the size of your thumbnail, with glorious 160×80 pixel color… it’s the Adafruit Mini TFT Breakout! This very very small display is only 0.96″ diagonal, packed with RGB pixels, for making very small high-density displays.

The display uses 4-wire SPI to communicate and has its own pixel-addressable frame buffer, it can be used with every kind of microcontroller. Even a very small one with low memory and few pins available!

The breakout has the TFT display soldered on (it uses a delicate flex-circuit connector) as well as a ultra-low-dropout 3.3V regulator and a 3/5V level shifter so you can use it with 3.3V or 5V power and logic. We also had a little space so we placed a microSD card holder so you can easily load full color bitmaps from a FAT16/FAT32 formatted microSD card.
