M5Stack · ESP32 · 2.0" · 320×240
M5Stack Tough 2.0" specifications
The M5Stack Tough 2.0" is a 2.0" 320×240 display board by M5Stack, built around the ESP32 (ESP32-D0WDQ6 module) running at 240 MHz. The panel uses a ILI9342C (SPI) controller over SPI, with CHSC6540 (capacitive, I2C) touch input. Memory: 16 MB flash, 8 MB PSRAM; wireless: Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. In LCD Ultra Pro you can design its UI visually at the exact resolution; a ready-made display driver for the Arduino export is not available yet, so the export contains the LVGL UI code for your own project.

Free GPIOs and connectors
These GPIOs are not used by the display, touch or on-board peripherals, so you can wire your own sensors, buttons or relays to them.
| Pin | Capabilities | Note |
|---|---|---|
| GPIO 0 | GPIO, BOOT | Boot / Grove port |
| GPIO 2 | GPIO, ADC | Presumably free |
| GPIO 12 | GPIO, PWM | Presumably free |
| GPIO 13 | GPIO, PWM | Presumably free |
| GPIO 14 | GPIO, PWM | Presumably free |
| GPIO 27 | GPIO, PWM | Presumably free |
| GPIO 32 | GPIO, ADC | Presumably free (external I2C on Core2, needs verification here) |

Pick this board in the editor and the canvas matches its exact resolution and shape. Build the interface with widgets, add events without code, try it in Live Preview, then export it as LVGL UI code. See the documentation for the workflow.
Frequently asked questions
What is the resolution of the M5Stack Tough 2.0"?
320×240 pixels on a 2.0" screen, driven at 16-bit colour depth.
Which display controller and interface does it use?
ILI9342C (SPI) over SPI.
Does the M5Stack Tough 2.0" have a touchscreen?
Yes — CHSC6540 (capacitive, I2C).
Which ESP32 chip and how much memory does it have?
ESP32 (ESP32-D0WDQ6) at 240 MHz, 16 MB flash, 8 MB PSRAM.
Which GPIOs are free for my own sensors or relays?
8 GPIOs are free: GPIO 0, GPIO 2, GPIO 12, GPIO 13, GPIO 14, GPIO 27, GPIO 32, GPIO 33.
Can I use LVGL on the M5Stack Tough 2.0"?
Yes, with your own display driver setup. In LCD Ultra Pro you can design the UI at the board’s exact resolution and export the LVGL 8.4 UI and event code; a ready-made display driver for this board is not included yet, so you call ui_init() from your own LVGL project.
