## Description

desertcart.com: JESSINIE 3Pcs 1.28 Inch TFT LCD Display Module Round GC9A01 Driver IPS LCD Screen Module Circular 4 Wire SPI Interface for Arduino : Industrial & Scientific

Review: Adafruit GC9A01A library works, but with an SPI speed change - I bought this 1.28" display because it doesn't have the connector pins extending below the bottom of the display. The displays with the connectors extending below the display (typically on a blue PCB) work well with the Adafruit GC9A01A library, but I couldn't get these JESSINIE displays to work with the same hardware, a Seeed Studio XIAO ESP32-S3. Joshua C.'s review gave me the idea to look at the Adafruit library code. I changed the SPI Default frequency, which was set at 24000000 in their library by overriding their definition in the example program code. I started with 800000 and it worked right away. I increased the clock speed until it stopped working; it was still working reliably at 21000000 but this may change with variations in hardware. Change the speed until it works. I made the following changes to their example: // the following pinouts are for the Xiao ESP32-S3, with hardware SPI. I used three digital I/O pins for the TFT control #define TFT_RST D0 //added a TFT reset #define TFT_DC D1 #define TFT_CS D2 #define SPI_DEFAULT_FREQ 21000000 //was 24000000 Adafruit_GC9A01A tft(TFT_CS, TFT_DC, TFT_RST); //modified the display constructor to add the RST pin
Review: Work as expected - These work great and are easy to use.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Adafruit GC9A01A library works, but with an SPI speed change

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Work as expected
*by H***E on February 3, 2026*

These work great and are easy to use.

### ⭐ Not working with existing TFT_eSPI code
*by P***R on November 9, 2025*

None of the three are working so far with my existing demo for the GC9A01 controller. I have the TFT_eSPI Smooth_Graphics/AntiAliasedClock demo running on 1.28” displays, of the type that have pins on them and which use the same controller, connected to an esp32s2-mini processor. I added code to light the built-in led during NTP request processing. That code executes without error on the Jessine displays but nothing is displayed - the blue led flashes as NTP requests are processed and things appear to be proceeding as expected but nothing is displayed. The backlight does come on. I have experimented with the SPI_FREQ and even added a reset signal but no joy. The other displays continued to work with these test changes tho slowly as expected. I have verified that both the power and signaling are 3.3v. None of these will display anything.
