Hi  
A long time ago, I bought a display evaluation board (part number LCD-08600).  
It features a blue inductor, a switching regulator, and two push-buttons in parallel.  
There is also a tricolor status LED.

I recently opened the ESD bag, intending to test the display.  
However, the product itself—along with its specifications and datasheet—cannot be found on the SparkFun website.  
Google results only mention issues with the switching regulator’s inductor overheating.  
AI indicates that multiple different versions were sold under this product code.  
Even AI failed to locate a datasheet or example code in online archives.

Where can I find the necessary information?  
Or have I been holding onto this display for years in vain, given that information about it is no longer available?

Could not find the product page after searching with LCD-08600 sparkfun. Is the product discontinued?
