Product description: Display HAT Mini - IPS LCD 2" 320x240px display overlay for Raspberry Pi - PiMoroni PIM589
Display HAT Mini from Pimoroni is a display overlay designed for any 40-pin version of Raspberry Pi. The bright, 18-bit, 2" IPS display with a resolution of 320 x 240 px communicates via an SPI interface. There are also four buttons on the module that can be used to create a simple user interface, as well as an RGB LED for notifications. The Qwiic / STEMMA QT and Breakout Garden connector allows additional modules to be connected via the I2C interface. The display overlay is larger than the standard mini HAT and pHAT and is about 5 mm longer than the Pi Zero, but can still be used with this model. The Display HAT Mini allows you to create a simple IoT panel, photo frame or gif-box, as well as a monitor to display news, tweets or information from other APIs. The display has a 3:2 aspect ratio, perfect for retro gaming.
