SB Components WiFi HAT for Raspberry Pi Pico with LCD Display

The SB Components WiFi HAT for Raspberry Pi Pico adds 2.4GHz 802.11b/g/n WiFi and a 1.14-inch LCD display to Pico projects, with an integrated ESP8266 module and PCB antenna.

Overview

The HAT is designed for direct connection to a Raspberry Pi Pico that has male headers soldered in place, with the pins facing down. It features pre-soldered female headers, so no additional soldering is required, which allows for quick prototyping and development. The board supports three WiFi operating modes: Station (STA), Access Point (AP), and a combined STA+AP mode, giving flexibility across different network configurations.

Key Features

• Integrated ESP8266 module with 2.4GHz 802.11b/g/n WiFi and a PCB antenna
• 1.14-inch LCD with 65K RGB colours and a 240 x 135 pixel resolution for displaying data, graphics, or user interfaces
• Full 40-pin GPIO extension header, controllable via AT commands for interfacing with sensors, actuators, and other components
• TCP and UDP communication support for network data transfer
• Physical flash and reset buttons for programming and troubleshooting

Dimensions

• Width: 2.6
• Depth: 1.35
• Height: 3.65

Applications

Combining WiFi with a colour display, the HAT suits smart home devices, remote data monitors, portable gaming consoles, and Internet of Things (IoT) and interactive projects where wireless communication and visual output are required. Its compact dimensions allow it to fit neatly onto the Pico. This HAT is well suited to projects that need both wireless connectivity and a visual interface.
