The RP2040 chip from the Raspberry Pi Foundation is a great low-cost component that forms the core of the Pi Pico board and is used by designers like Waveshare for creating more fun hobbyist MCU boards. Smaller MCU boards like these help Makers who need to get a fully functioning project up and running, from prototype to final design in a quick, efficient and relatively easy way. The Raspberry Pi RP2040-Zero LCD Microprocessor combines the famous Pico chip with an onboard 0.96-inch LCD display to give even your small projects a fun flair.
The RP2040 LCD Microcontroller holds a dual-core ARM Cortex M0+ and multiple digital interfaces for your project’s needs. The prominent IPS LCD lying across the board is perfect for displaying important information for the core functions of your creation while you are prototyping. This small display is also colourful and makes a fun tiny game screen for a custom Gameboy build! The RP2040 chip on this MCU board mimics the high performance of the Raspberry Pi Pico board, but this LCD Microcontroller provides a streamlined option for makers who optimise their budgets.
The Waveshare RP2040 LCD Microcontroller was designed for small to intermediate maker projects. A USB Type-C connector allows for programming and two handy onboard buttons reset and boot your device without the need to constantly pull out the USB cord. 26 total GPIO pins are available for tinkering with and attaching multi-functional connections. You will also enjoy learning about new interface systems. The RP2040 LCD MCU Board supports Pico C/CC+ SDK and MicroPython which come with plenty of built-in support. Simple devices and communication protocols function much quicker. The only downside to the RP2040 LCD module is the small 2MB memory space, but this may be all you need. Your new RP2040 LCD Microcontroller is a fantastic choice to begin your next maker masterpiece.

No customer reviews for the moment.
When it comes to producing unique electronics components and modules, there are very few brands that can provide the quality that Waveshare can. Based in the Futian District in Shenzhen, China, Waveshare are experts in developing electronics to a high standard of quality, which have been thoroughly tested to work seamlessly with corresponding development platforms and systems – such as the E-Ink HATs for Raspberry Pi’s.
What we love most about Waveshare is how they are dedicated to providing quality products, and have moved away from the typical “Made in China” stigma – cheap products with cheap parts and components. Instead, Waveshare understand the value of supplying quality products and building sustainable relationships with international resellers and distributors. They know that consistent quality will result in consistent business, and as such they always ensure strict quality control for each and every product that comes out of the manufacturing plant.
We are always excited to peruse through their vast catalogue of exciting new products to find unique modules, components or even entire development boards that are designed with quality in mind. Because we know that every cent that we spend with Waveshare will be well-spent, with each product that order adding real value to our own catalogue of products.
