The new launch 7″ Official Raspberry Pi Display 2 with Capacitive Touchscreen gives users the ability to create the all-in-one, integrated projects such as tablets, infotainment systems, and embedded projects!
The 720×1280 display connects via an adapter board which handles power and signal conversion. Only two connections to the Pi are required; power from the Pi’s GPIO port and a ribbon cable that connects to the DSI port present on all Raspberry Pi’s. Touchscreen drivers with support for 5-finger touch and an on-screen keyboard will be integrated into the latest Raspbian OS for full functionality without a physical keyboard or mouse.
Touch Display 2 is powered from your Raspberry Pi, and is compatible with all Raspberry Pi computers from Raspberry Pi 1B+ onwards, except for the Raspberry Pi Zero series which lack the necessary DSI port. It attaches securely to your Raspberry Pi with four screws, and ships with power and data cables compatible with both standard and mini FPC connector formats. Unlike its predecessor, Touch Display 2 integrates the display driver PCB into the display enclosure itself, delivering a much slimmer form factor.
Like its predecessor, Touch Display 2 is fully supported by Raspberry Pi OS, which provides drivers to support five-finger touch and an on-screen keyboard. This gives you full functionality without the need for a keyboard or mouse. While it is a native portrait-format 720×1280-pixel panel, Raspberry Pi OS supports screen rotation for users who would prefer to use it in landscape orientation.
Note: Raspberry Pi Board shown in image is not included in package.
