IIC / I2C 1602 Blue Backlight LCD Display Module For Arduino (Blue backlight display)
Everyone loves the 1602-character LCD, it is cheap and works out of the box! But the need for 6 to 10 GPIOs is the pain :) It takes most of the GPIO of Arduino and other microcontrollers. Now with this I2C or Two wires interface LCD, you will save a lot of GPIO for your sensor and motor control.
This is a great blue backlight LCD display. As the pin resources of the Arduino controller are limited, your project may not be able to use a normal LCD shield after being connected with a certain quantity of sensors or SD cards. However, with this I2C interface LCD module, you can realize data display via only 2 wires. If you already have I2C devices in your project, you can still program this LCD with the correct I2C address. It is fantastic for Arduino-based projects.
Note: If the display is not clear (or blank), try to adjust the contrast level by tuning the onboard potentiometer.

Four Digit - Seven Segment Display - Red (display 7 segment red)
This lovely little (14.2mm) seven segment display provides excellent segment uniformity and is highly visible up to seven meters away. It's ultra bright, and provides great readability even in bright ambient light!
What's in the box?
1 x Four Digit Seven Segment Display Red
Resources
It has four digits and a decimal point on each digit, designed for numeric output, so you can use it to add a clock, timer or counter into your next project.
These displays are multiplexed, common-cathode. What that means it that you can use a 74HC595 or just 8 microcontroller pins if you can spare them to control the 8 anodes (7-seg decimal) at about ~15mA each, and then connect NPN transistors or a TPIC6B595 to the cathodes to sink the 8*20mA = ~120mA maximum per digit.
This is an ultra bright RED colour.
Specifications
- 100mcd
- 14.2mm (0.56") digit height
- Color: red (630nm)
- Common cathode display
- Maximum power dissipation per segment: 66mW
- Maximum pulse peak forward current per segment (1/10th duty cycle, 0.1ms pulse width): 100mA
- Maximum forward current per segment: 20mA
- Maximum reverse voltage: 5V
- Maximum reverse current: 20µA
- Typical forward voltage: 2.1V at 20mA
- Maximum forward voltage: 2.5V at 20mA
- Operating temperature range: -30°C - 70°C

Unicorn HAT (Unicorn HAT)
Description:
Short video on the Unicorn HAT
What's going to protect your beloved Raspberry Pi from an onslaught of rainbow-coloured fusion? That's right, it's Unicorn HAT.
Sporting a matrix of 64 (8 x 8) RGB LEDs and powered directly from the Pi, this is the most compact pocket aurora available.
Unicorn HAT provides a wash of controllable colour that is ideal for mood-lighting, 8x8 pixel art, persistence of vision effects, status indications, or just blasting colour into your surroundings.
The MagPi said that Unicorn HAT was "one of the coolest HATs around"
Features
- 64 RGB LEDs (WS2812B)
- LED data driven via DMA over PWM
- Unicorn HAT pinout
- Compatible with Raspberry Pi 3, 2, B , A , Zero, and Zero W
- Python library
- Comes fully assembled
Software
We've put together a Unicorn HAT Python library to make it a breeze to use, including lots of beautiful examples of what it can do.
Notes
- Warning: WS2812 LEDs are bright enough to cause eye pain, do not look at them directly when brightly lit. We recommend the use of a diffuser.
- Photo-sensitivity warning: flashing, strobing, and patterns of lights may cause epileptic seizures. Always take care and immediately stop using if you feel unwell (dizziness, nausea, affected vision, eye twitching, disorientation).
- Power: Unicorn HAT requires a >2A microUSB power supply for your Pi. We recommend the official Raspberry Pi power supply.
- Compatibility (audio): as Unicorn HAT uses PWM and GPIO18, it will interfere with analogue audio playback (random colour patterns and flickering). HDMI should work just fine!

Adafruit PiTFT Plus 320x240 2.8" TFT Capacitive Touchscreen(40 pin) (2.8 display touch cap 40pin)
Description:
Is this not the cutest little display for the Raspberry Pi? It features a 2.8" display with 320x240 16-bit color pixels and a capacitive touch overlay. That's right, instead of a resistive touchscreen, which requires a fingernail or stylus, you can now use a fingerpad.
The screen looks much nicer, with a black bezel and glass overlay.
This updated design fits perfectly onto the Pi Zero, Pi 3, Pi 2 or Model A , B ! (Any Pi with a 2x20 connector) Not for use with an old Pi 1 with 2x13 connector. This version also has all 40 pins GPIO pins brought out so you can connect a 40-pin GPIO cable underneath.
The display and touchscreen uses the hardware I2C Pins (SDA & SCL), SPI pins (SCK, MOSI, MISO, CE0) as well as GPIO #25 and #24. All other GPIO are unused and you can still share the I2C pins with sensors, LED drivers, etc. Since we had a tiny bit of space, there's 4 slim tactile switches wired to four GPIOs, that you can use if you want to make a basic user interface. For example, you can use one as a power on/off button.
Use it for console access or easily pop up X11 onto the PiTFT for a mini monitor, although its rather small at 320x240. Instead, we recommend using PyGame or other SDL-drawing programs to write onto the frame buffer.
Raspberry Pi computer and enclosure not included! As of July 22nd, 2015 this display comes fully assembled with tactile switches too
