1.28inch Round LCD IPS Module
This 1.28inch round LCD module uses an IPS panel with a GC9A01 driver and a 240×240 resolution. It shows 65K RGB colours and operates at 3.3V or 5V. The SPI interface keeps the pin count low for simple wiring. It suits developers adding a compact display to embedded projects.
Makers using Raspberry Pi, Jetson Nano.
The board connects directly to Raspberry Pi, Jetson Nano, Arduino and STM32 platforms through its SPI link. Builders who need a parallel interface, a larger screen, or a touch layer should look at other modules. Projects requiring higher colour depth or a different form factor will not match this part.
SPI interface minimises IO pins
Communication runs over SPI, which minimises the IO pins needed on the host controller. This single spec decides whether the module fits your pin budget and wiring constraints. If your design cannot spare an SPI bus, choose a display with a different interface.

Questions about this item
Which host boards have 3.3 V or 5 V SPI headers that match this 1.28inch Round LCD IPS Display Module?
The module works with Raspberry Pi 4B, 3B+, 3B, 2B, Zero, Zero W, Zero WH, Zero 2W, Zero 2WH, Jetson Nano, Arduino and STM32 boards that expose a 3.3 V or 5 V SPI bus.
Will the GC9A01 driver on this display share a Raspberry Pi SPI bus with older HATs that also use SPI?
Yes, the SPI interface needs only a few IO pins so the display can share the bus with other SPI devices as long as each has its own chip-select line.
How can I confirm the 240×240 panel and 65K RGB colours are active after wiring the display?
Run the WaveShare demo code from the wiki; the screen should show a full-colour test pattern at 240×240 pixels without artefacts.
