Overview
The Adafruit PyPortal is a standalone, internet-connected display platform built around the ATSAMD51J20 ARM Cortex-M4F microcontroller running CircuitPython at 120MHz. An ESP32 coprocessor handles all WiFi communication (including TLS/SSL) independently, freeing the main MCU for display rendering and application logic. With 8MB of flash for CircuitPython libraries and a microSD slot, the PyPortal can fetch live data from web APIs and display it without a computer.
The 3.2" IPS color TFT display (320×240 pixels) with resistive touchscreen makes it ideal for IoT dashboards, weather stations, news tickers, and crypto price trackers. An onboard ADT7410 precision temperature sensor, light sensor, NeoPixel indicator, and 1W speaker with amplifier cover common IoT display use cases. Two STEMMA I2C ports and two analog/digital breakout pins provide expansion without soldering.
The PyPortal was originally sold as part of AdaBox 011. It is programmed entirely in CircuitPython (Python for microcontrollers), with a large library of example projects available on the Adafruit Learn system. Badge lanyard mounting holes and 3D-printable case designs make it portable.
