XIAO 1.47'' IPS Touch Display (nRF52840)

The Seeed XIAO 1.47" IPS Touch Display (nRF52840) combines a capacitive colour touchscreen, BLE, microphone, IMU, MicroSD card slot, user buttons and battery connectivity on one compact development board.

The Seeed XIAO 1.47" IPS Touch Display (nRF52840) is a ready-to-use mini smart device development board. It brings a 1.47" capacitive display, microphone, IMU, MicroSD card slot, battery connector, and user buttons together with the pre-soldered XIAO nRF52840 Plus. With display, touch, sound, motion sensing, and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) built into one compact board, it makes it easier to build portable smart devices without wiring multiple modules. It is ideal for smart badges, wearable devices, BLE controllers, digital pets, motion-aware gadgets, and portable HMI prototypes. We are currently stocking the 0.96", 1.14" and the 1.47" versions of this board. Please see the specifications table for their differences. Features

* A Mini Smart Device Board for Portable Projects: If you want to build a small device that can be held, worn, or built into an enclosure, you usually need a screen, touch input, buttons, battery support, sensors, and Bluetooth connectivity. This board brings these key parts together, so you can focus on the project itself: building the UI, adding interaction, reading motion, and connecting to a phone or other Bluetooth devices, instead of starting with many separate modules and wires.

* Make Your Projects That Look and Feel More Finished: The 1.47" colour touch display helps your project move beyond serial output, LEDs, or rough test setups. You can build menus, status pages, icons, buttons, sensor dashboards, and simple animations, making your prototype easier to show, use, and share. For demos, customer presentations, classroom projects, and maker builds, it helps the final result feel much more complete.

* Touch, Sound, and Motion Sensing in One Small Board: This board does more than show information. It also gives your project multiple ways to respond to the user. The touch screen is great for menus and controls. The microphone can be used for recording, sound triggers, or voice interaction. The IMU can detect orientation, shaking, flipping, and motion. With these built in, you can build a small device that can “listen”, “move”, and respond to touch, not just display data.

* Built for BLE and Battery-Powered Ideas: Powered by XIAO nRF52840 Plus, this version is a good fit for Bluetooth and battery-powered projects. Use it to build a BLE remote, motion controller, smart badge, wearable notifier, motion-aware device, or a mini Bluetooth terminal that connects to a phone, computer, or gateway. For projects that do not need Wi-Fi but need to stay small and mobile, this version is a better match.
