Do you have a question about the Arduino ASX00039 and is the answer not in the manual?

Overview

The Arduino GIGA Display Shield (SKU: ASX00039) is an accessory designed to enhance the functionality of the Arduino GIGA R1 WiFi board by adding a touchscreen display with orientation detection. It does not contain a microcontroller and cannot be programmed independently, requiring a GIGA R1 WiFi board for operation.

Function Description

The GIGA Display Shield provides an easy way to integrate a touchscreen display, orientation detection, and audio input into projects using the GIGA R1 WiFi board. It facilitates the creation of Human-Machine Interfaces, interactive displays, and voice-assisted applications. The shield's components, including the TFT display, 6-axis IMU, RGB LED, and digital microphone, are connected to the GIGA R1 WiFi board via various interfaces like DSI, I2C, and PDM.

Important Technical Specifications

KD040WVFID026-01-C025A 3.97" TFT Display:

  • Resolution: 480x800 pixels
  • Colors: 16.7 million
  • Pixel Size: 0.108 mm
  • Touch Sensor: Capacitive, supporting 5-point and gesture input.
  • Backlight: Edge LED, driven by the LV52204MTTBG (U3) LED Driver.
  • Connectivity: J4 connector for video (DSI) signals, J5 connector for touch panel signals (I2C communication).

BMI270 6-axis IMU (Accelerometer and Gyroscope):

  • Bit Depth: 16-bit
  • Accelerometer Range: ±2g/±4g/±8g/±16g
  • Gyroscope Range: ±125dps/±250dps/±500dps/±1000dps/±2000dps
  • Connectivity: Common I2C connection to the GIGA R1 WiFi.

SMLP34RGB2W3 RGB LED:

  • Type: Common Anode
  • Driver: IS31FL3197-QFLS2-TR with integrated charge pump.
  • Connectivity: Common I2C connection to the GIGA R1 WiFi.

MP34DT06JTR Digital Microphone:

  • Type: Ultra-compact, low-power, omnidirectional, digital MEMS microphone.
  • Interface: PDM (Pulse Density Modulation).
  • AOP (Acoustic Overload Point): 122.5 dbSPL
  • Signal-to-Noise Ratio: 64 dB
  • Sensitivity: Omnidirectional, -26 dBFS ± 3 dB.

I/O:

  • GIGA Connector
  • 2.54 mm Camera Connector

Recommended Operating Conditions:

  • Input Voltage (VIN header): 6V (Min), 7.0V (Typ), 32V (Max)
  • Input High-level Voltage (VDD): 2.31V (Min), 3.3V (Max)
  • Input Low-level Voltage (VIL): 0V (Min), 1V (Max)
  • Operating Temperature (TOP): 0°C (Min), 25°C (Typ), 65°C (Max)

Power Tree: The 3V3 voltage power is supplied by the GIGA R1 WiFi (J6 and J7). All onboard logic, including the microphone (U1) and IMU (U7), operate at 3V3. The RGB LED Driver (U2) includes an integrated charge pump to increase voltage as defined by I2C commands. The edge backlight intensity is controlled by the LED driver (U3).

Usage Features

The GIGA Display Shield is designed for several application examples:

  • Human-Machine Interface Systems: It can be paired with a GIGA R1 WiFi board to create responsive Human-Machine Interface systems. The integrated gyroscope allows for easy orientation detection to adjust the visual element orientation.
  • Interaction Design Prototyping: The shield supports rapid prototyping of novel interaction design concepts, including those for social robots that respond to sound.
  • Voice Assistant: The included microphone, together with the edge computing power of the GIGA R1 WiFi, enables voice automation with visual feedback.

To program the GIGA Display Shield, users need to install the Arduino® Desktop IDE or use the Arduino Web Editor. For cloud-based projects, the Arduino IoT Cloud is supported, allowing users to log, graph, and analyze sensor data, trigger events, and automate their home or business. Online resources, including the Arduino Project Hub and Library Reference, are available for further support and project ideas.

Maintenance Features

The manual does not explicitly detail maintenance features. However, as an electronic shield, general best practices for electronic components apply:

  • Operating Environment: Adhere to the recommended operating temperature range of 0°C to 65°C to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
  • Physical Handling: The device should be handled with care to avoid physical damage to the display, connectors, and other components.
  • Mounting: The board includes mounting holes with specific dimensions (e.g., R1.60mm, R1.00mm, R0.90mm radii) for secure installation, which helps prevent damage from movement or vibration.
  • Cleaning: While not specified, gentle cleaning with appropriate electronic-safe methods would be advisable if dust or debris accumulates.

The product is declared to be in compliance with essential requirements and other relevant provisions of Directive 2014/53/EU and is allowed to be used in all EU member states. It also adheres to EU RoHS & REACH directives regarding hazardous substances and includes a Conflict Minerals Declaration, ensuring responsible sourcing. FCC Caution and IC SAR Warning information are provided, detailing compliance with regulatory standards for radio apparatus and RF radiation exposure, including minimum distance requirements for installation and operation (20cm between radiator and body).
