WIRING MAP ESP32-C3-Zero (its WS2812 RGB LED is on the board) with the 1.8″ ST7735 SPI display and a TTP223 capacitive touch pad. This is the exact pin map the sketches compile against — TFT_SCLK 1, TFT_MOSI 2, TFT_DC 3, TFT_RST 4, TFT_CS 5, TOUCH_PIN 0, LED_PIN 10.

1.8″ TFT SPI 128×160 · V1.1 VCC → 3V3 GND → GND LED → 3V3 (backlight, always on) CS → GP5 · TFT_CS RESET → GP4 · TFT_RST A0 / DC → GP3 · TFT_DC SDA → GP2 · TFT_MOSI SCK → GP1 · TFT_SCLK SDO / MISO not connected SD_CS · SD_MOSI · SD_MISO · SD_SCK SD card unused TTP223 · capacitive touch VCC → 3V3 (2–5.5 V) GND → GND SIG → GP0 · TOUCH_PIN Notes The TFT runs write-only on SPI (GP1 SCK, GP2 MOSI) — MISO is not wired, so the display is never read back. Backlight is tied to 3V3: the sketches don't PWM it, so it's on whenever the board is powered. GP0 is the touch input (TTP223 SIG) and also a capacitive-touch capable pad on the C3; GP9 stays the onboard BOOT button. GP10 drives the C3-Zero's on-board WS2812 — no wiring, it's part of the board (nightlight in the pong clock, status flashes elsewhere). GND is shared: the display and the touch module return to the same rail. 5V stays unconnected — display and touch run on 3V3. The TTP223 pad order varies between batches — the square pad is pin 1. Check the silkscreen before powering (pads are numbered 1 · 2 · 3 in the diagram).
