4D Systems, gen4 5in Arduino Compatible Display with Capacitive Touch Screen

The gen4 series from 4D Systems are TFT LCD Display Modules that offer a compact and easy to integrate display solution.

This 5.0” 800 x 480 pixel variant features capacitive touch for applications requiring a human-machine interface and includes a cover lens bezel. Also included is an Arduino adaptor shield, allowing the module to be quickly connected to an Arduino for programming.

The design of the gen4 series makes it simple to integrate into a final product. The display module features a 30-pin ZIF socket to provide an easy connection to an application or motherboard, removing wiring headaches. If space is at a premium the connected board can sit flush on the back of the module as the display circuitry fits comfortably within the mounting base, maintain a slim profile. A micro-SD card connector provides optional multimedia storage and data logging capabilities.

gen4 Display Modules are powered by the 4D Systems Diablo16 processor, an embedded controller that provides built-in graphics, text, image and animation capability. The Diablo16 is fully compatible with the 4D Systems Workshop4 IDE, giving programmers the flexibility of 4 differing development environments.
