Do away with many components, using one companion.
Compact and feature-packed
The TIMI-130 is a unique, breadboard-compatible display development module designed to streamline electronic testing, development, and project execution.
Suitable for standalone use, host interfacing, PC tethering, and educational purposes, TIMI-130 features a 1.3” TFT LCD display driven by a PIXXI-28 graphics processor from 4D Labs. Its MatesBus interface allows for easy integration in breadboard applications, adaptors, or directly into developed products.
Created as a flexible design aid, TIMI-130 simulates component readouts and meters, saving hardware resources and speeding up development. Ideal for engineers, hobbyists, and students at all levels, TIMI-130 makes breadboarding and project development easier and more efficient by preserving GPIO hardware resources and facilitating faster project completion.
TIMI-130 Features
TIMI’s main interface is a 3.3V-level Asynchronous Serial UART and features 3 GPIOs that can be used as Digital or Analog inputs, Digital Outputs, Master I2C Communication, or PWM Audio output. These interfaces arm TIMI with resources to be either a stand-alone controller, a host-driven slave, or a tethered test instrument while being capable of interfacing and powering external devices.

Mates Studio
Mates Studio is a powerful integrated development environment (IDE) designed to simplify the UI development of Breadboard Mates products such as TIMI, TED, and REPTOR.
Offering several options for graphical applications, Mates Studio includes four feature-rich environments—Commander, Architect, Genius, and Builder—each tailored to transform your ideas into reality. Download for free and embrace the power to innovate.
Unleash Creativity with Mates Studio’s Dynamic Development Environments
Dive into Mates Studio’s suite of four distinct development environments – Commander, Architect, Genius, and Builder. Each tailored to transform your ideas into reality, from leveraging pre-designed layouts to crafting custom interactive GUIs. Whether you’re programming with ease or designing with flexibility, our environments cater to every level of creativity and technical prowess. Embrace the power to create, customize, and control your projects like never before.
Commander
Quickly create visually appealing GUIs using built-in layouts from Breadboard Mates and the community. The Mates Serial Command Protocol is featured for easy microcontroller integration and a simulator interface.
Architect
Design custom page layouts with configurable widgets. Save and reuse widget and page designs across Architect, Genius, Builder, and Commander. Uses the same command protocol and simulator as Commander.
Genius
Create custom widgets and page layouts with direct control programming. This allows for unique features and functionalities beyond Commander and Architect. It does not include the Mates Serial Command Protocol.
Builder
It is similar to Genius but uses graphical block programming instead of code. This method is ideal for designing complex behaviors and interactions visually.
