The details
Design & specifications
- Host: Waveshare ESP32-P4-WIFI6-DB, two 20-pin module socket strips
- Display: 4-inch ILI9488 TFT interface, four-wire SPI, 40-contact FPC
- Touch: 6-contact capacitive-touch FPC with interrupt and reset; fitted controller to be confirmed
- Backlight: PWM brightness with startup-off pull-down
- Line-out: PCM5102A stereo DAC, dedicated I2S bus, 3.5 mm jack
- Headset: ES8388 playback and microphone capture, 3.5 mm CTIA jack
- Microphone: external bias/filter network; firmware input and gain configuration required
- Audio: ES8388 full-duplex I2S plus separate PCM5102A TX; dual playback requires firmware support
- Storage: external SPI microSD, dedicated chip select and switch-enabled card detection
- Shared SPI: TFT and SD use separate chip selects; buffered TFT MISO isolates the deselected display
- Expansion: I2C (5-pin), SPI (7-pin), GPIO (8-pin), right-angle JST-SH 1.00 mm
- Spare GPIOs: GPIO2 chip select plus GPIO3, 24, 25, 50 and 52
- Logic: 3.3 V; expansion 5 V contacts are power only
- Power: local 3.3 V regulation, decoupling and power indication; current depends on thermal conditions
- Mechanical: ribbon slots, mounting holes and module antenna clearance
- Latest revision: top-contact 40-pin LCD FPC and bottom-contact 6-pin touch FPC; ribbon fit remains to be verified
- Software: GitHub BSP resources, ESP-IDF/Arduino examples and MySwift AirPlay/LVGL project
- Status: design features; powered validation, supplied contents, final dimensions and firmware release to be confirmed
- Images: existing project previews; final PCB V3 appearance may change

AirPlay project on GitHub ↗Compatibility & development notes
The shield adds ILI9488 SPI TFT, capacitive touch, ES8388 and PCM5102A interfaces. The module BSP is a starting point; a shield-specific pin map and driver configuration are required. Existing AirPlay examples include an ES8311 module test path. AirPlay support is a development project; no Apple certification or universal sender compatibility is claimed.
The ES8388 headset connection is CTIA; PCM5102A line-out needs a suitable amplifier or powered input. Leave conflicting USB functions disabled on shield-assigned GPIOs. Ribbon fit and powered validation remain to be completed before production sale. The gallery uses supplied PCB design views.
