The ESP32-S3-Touch-LCD-1.69 is a watch-sized development board built on the ESP32-S3 (dual-core Xtensa LX7 at 240 MHz, 8 MB PSRAM, 16 MB flash) with a 1.69 inch 240×280 IPS touch display, 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5 LE.

**Technical details**

- ESP32-S3 with 8 MB octal PSRAM and 16 MB flash, onboard antenna
- 1.69 inch IPS display, 240×280, ST7789V2 controller over SPI, PWM backlight
- CST816T capacitive touch with gesture support (I2C)
- QMI8658C 6-axis IMU and PCF85063A RTC with an RTC battery header (I2C)
- ETA6098 lithium battery charger, MX1.25 battery connector, battery voltage sense
- Passive buzzer, BOOT and RST buttons, and a PWR key with a power-hold circuit for battery operation
- USB-C (native USB: CircuitPython REPL and CIRCUITPY drive)

In CircuitPython, `board.DISPLAY` is ready at boot, the touch controller, IMU and RTC share `board.I2C()`, and the power-hold line is asserted automatically so the board runs from its battery; `board.PWR_BUTTON` reads the key.
