This 1.3" round TFT display will be in the shop soon, thanks to this tester, which lets us quickly verify all functionality: We're reading a display bitmap off of the SD card, displaying it, and then pulsing the backlight. We do this all through the EYESPI connector https://www.adafruit.com/search?q=eyespi and this one is passing just fine. After w…

Last month we stocked some fun filament shapes, like snowflakes (https://www.adafruit.com/product/6093) or unicorns (https://www.adafruit.com/product/6094) these are easy to use: simply power with 3V like any LED and they glow with a tungsten-eque warmth (but without the 120VAC or burning heat). This week we got some samples of the same COB 'chip o…

While developing boards, there are oftentimes we want to program ESP chips without going through the onboard USB port; this adapter will help us (and others) do that! It has a CP2102N USB-serial chip (https://www.digikey.com/short/bm7n3p5z) with RX/TX signal LEDs and two transistors wired up to the DTR/RTS line for the 'esptool standard' reset proc…

This week, we saw a social media post asking for ultra-fine tip tweezers for entomology (https://bsky.app/profile/jammyness.bsky.social/post/3lfs3ftb6h22x), and hey, we love bugs, too! And just cause DigiKey specializes to the engineer does not mean it can't support our fellow scientists either. So, let's visit DigiKey to see what tweezers are in s…

Testing ESP programmer board, working on 3.5" Captouch TFT with new ST7796S display & FT6236 touch chips. Board needs redesign for new FPC. Got exciting screen samples round/bar/rect. Also found great ultra-fine tweezers on DigiKey, for both engineers & entomologists!بقلم Adafruit Industries

This morning, we woke up to a mechanical failure in a critical system here at the Adafruit household: our beloved dinosaur tissue holder fell off our bathroom wall and experienced a rapid, unplanned disassembly of one armature. We'll be able to fix the limb, but we want to make sure we can reattach without this happening again! Thus, in today's que…

We've been cranking out some nice stepper driver chip breakouts - the A4988 (https://www.digikey.com/short/qzmjwjvv) and the TMC2209 (https://www.digikey.com/short/p4fh9mm4) so far!

We got this kind of nifty sample of a Neopixel 'sheet,' which is uncut LED strips - the whole thing is flexible PCB material with a cuttable square pitch of 1 cm per pixel. it's arranged as a zigzag, so you can immediately use it as one strand of neopixel in a 12 x 24 arrangement. Or you could cut it into funky shapes and connect the data to data i…
