Raspberry Pi Display Is Here
The official Raspberry Pi touch display is on sale today, priced at $60. You can buy it at the Swag Store, at RS Components/Allied Electronics and at Premier Farnell/Newark. Other sellers will be receiving stock later this week.
The simple, embeddable display for the Raspberry Pi can support many digital display interfaces, including HDMI, DPI (Display Parallel Interface), DSI (Display serial interface) and DBI (Display Bus Interface).
Its basic specs include:
- RGB 800Χ480 display @60fps
- 24-bit colour
- FT5406 10 point capacitive touchscreen
- 70 degree viewing angle
- Metal-backed display with mounting holes for the Pi
The Raspberry Pi display has also an integrated 10-point touchscreen. The driver for this touchscreen outputs both standard mouse events and full multi-touch events, and therefore can work with X as a mouse.
