In the ever-evolving world of embedded systems and DIY electronics, Our MaTouch 1.28” ToolSet series stands out as a modular, developer-friendly solution for smart control applications. Whether you're working on home automation, robotics, or interactive lighting, this series offers a plug-and-play platform built on the powerful ESP32-S3 chip with a 1.28” touchscreen display and a range of functional expansion boards.

What is the MaTouch 1.28” ToolSet?
MaTouch 1.28” ToolSet is a series of open-source, ESP32-based control modules featuring a 1.28” round capacitive touchscreen and a wide selection of expansion boards. Designed as ready-to-use control tools, these sets aim to help makers and engineers quickly prototype and deploy smart control solutions.

Available modules include:

  •  LED Matrix
  • LED Strip
  • Relay
  • Step Motor Driver
  • AC Dimmer
  • DC Motor Driver

Whether you're lighting up a room, driving motors, or automating a device, the ToolSet makes it easy to control hardware directly — all while remaining open-source and customizable.

 

Key Features

 

  • Powerful Hardware


Each ToolSet is powered by the ESP32-S3, featuring 16MB Flash and 8MB PSRAM — more than enough for complex control logic and graphical interfaces. The integrated 1.28” 240×240 round LCD with capacitive touch provides a sleek, intuitive user experience.

  • Beautiful  UI


User interfaces are designed using LVGL and SquareLine Studio, allowing rich, responsive, and easily customizable touch interfaces. Developers can design their own screens and interactions to perfectly match their use case.

  • Open Source and Arduino Compatible


All ToolSet modules are open hardware and open source, with readily available Arduino V2.3.4-compatible codebases. No vendor lock-in — just full freedom to modify, remix, and integrate.

Meet the ToolSet Modules

 

This DC Driver combines an ESP32 touch controller with a high-efficiency dual H-bridge to drive and monitor two DC motors (up to 5A@22V), with real-time speed and current feedback via an intuitive UI.

 

This Stepper Driver combines a touchscreen ESP32 controller with dual TMC2209 drivers for silent, precise control of two stepper motors, featuring real-time current monitoring and both position/speed control modes.

 

1. PD power.  This device is equipped with PD circuit, that with a PD power, you can free to select 5v/9v/12v, to drive different WS2812 with different power requests. 

2. Control 2 Channel WS2812 strip simultaneously, with Max 300 pcs, max current 6A；

3. Current measurable. With this, users can monitor the driver current in time;

 

4. Multiple driver spec adjustable

This LED Strip Controller is a versatile, open-source driver with touch UI and PD-powered output, designed to control up to 2 WS2812 strips (max 300 LEDs) with real-time current monitoring and full RGB customization.

 

This timer switch relay is based on on-board RTC and 8 channel of 2 A relays, for projects that need timer switching. With MaTouch 1.28”, the 8 channel relay can be either manually control or set to timer switch for auto controlling, support Max 5 groups of timer.

 

This RGB LED Matrix combines an ESP32-S3 touchscreen controller with a 64×64 HUB75 matrix, supporting GIF/text playback from SD card and fully open-source for display projects and ESP32 development.

 

This AC Dimmer combines touch-based ESP32 control with Triac phase-cut dimming and relay-assisted full cutoff, offering precise and safe AC load control for lighting or motor applications — no external power required.

The MaTouch 1.28” ToolSet isn't just a control board — it's a development platform designed to empower your creativity. With its modular design, professional UI, and open-source ethos, it's ready to bring your ideas to life.
