tontec 7 inch lcd touch screen driver made in china
Place the largest green board in front of you below the screen. The power plug, HDMI port, VGA port, and composite video port should face the bottom edge (nearest you). The "TTL OUT" port should be at the top edge (furthest from you). It will be upside-down. Connect the screen"s ribbon to the TTL OUT port, lining it up as is. (To connect, gently pull the 2 black tabs slightly out from the port, gently slide the ribbon"s edge into it, and gently squeeze the black tabs back into place.)
Place the touchscreen in front of you with the wire ribbon towards the bottom edge. It should be right-of-center. Using the 4 color wire cable, connect the smaller end into the touchscreen"s ribbon. The grooved side of the cable should be face-up to line up correctly with the touchscreen"s ribbon.

Surveillance is worthless if thieves are not deterred by your security measures. Lots of people have cameras mounted to the exterior of their homes. Some even save the expense of having cameras mounted and put dummies up. But there is something about seeing one"s face staring right back at them to put the fear of God into them before they try to make off with your package or intrude into your home. I had the thought of setting up the Raspberry Pi to motion detect a person walking up to my door, turn on the screen, and have the camera display that person"s presence while they are on my doorstep. If they see themselves being captured on film, they will think twice about any funny business. I needed a screen small enough so that it is not an eyesore, yet still sharp enough for the task at hand. I needed something that didn"t draw too much power. For this purpose, it works wonderfully!! Just for kicks, I loaded up OpenELEC on my RPi and it had no problem displaying 1080p video. I have no idea about the longevity of this product. I do know it is a cheap Chinese made product. But at less than $50, if I get a two years of service out of it, I will be happy. I"ll probably end up getting a few more of these things for car and let my imagination run wild. Mobile OpenELEC in my car for long road trips perhaps :).

I recently got a Tontec 2.4-inch TFT LCD 240x320 RGB Pixels Touch Screen Display Monitor For Raspberry Pi from Amazon, and I have no idea how to get it set up. There were no directions included with the touchscreen when it arrived, and the directions given online at Amazon only tell you how to run the software (I think) and give no mention of hooking the display up itself. Any ideas? Should I just plug it in on top of the Pi"s GPIO pins and plug in a power cable in, or do I need to do something else? And can I just run the program, or do I have to do something else? I am fairly new to the Raspberry Pi. Thanks!
Sorry I haven"t replied- I"ve been very busy. I have managed to get this working- I used an external power supply. The first time I looked, I couldn"t find one. I think the reason it didn"t work being powered via USB was because I haven"t been able to find a 2 amp USB power supply, and so I am using a 1 amp power supply, not enough to power the Pi and the touchscreen at the same time. The person on Amazon probably had a 2 amp USB power supply. However, the power supply I found for the touchscreen was 2 amps.
The next problem I have is how to get the touchscreen part working. It just doesn"t do anything when I touch it. And is there any way to add real-time clock capability to it?

The manual.txt in the zip file says that the TSC2003 driver (TSC2007) should be in the kernel. It is on the/an i2c bus. (http://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/tsc2003.pdf is the chip handling the touch functionality)
It"s said the touchscreen using a tsc2003 chip could make use of this driver. However, when starting "make" it takes a whole day and night for the RPi for compiling all the modules. But at the end there"s no tsc2007.ko and no tsc_raspi.ko where it should be.
...unfortunately, I got some errors (after around 7 hours of compilation) ;vchi_

I just (checked "Misc devices" and) added "videocore VCHIQ" (BCM2708-VCHIQ) as hardlink (but maybe module is enough (?)) in the config (still using "make xconfig") and compilation went further (with no undefined symbols this time). I got a zImage and .ko files (including a tsc2007.ko).
(This post just to say that it is probably not necessary to use a bleeding edge kernel with some special pixie dust to have tsc2007/tsc2003 support. The "normal way" (if there is one) should do : get some sources->configure->build->install)
((In case tsc2007.ko doesn"t work (who knows?) http://osdir.com/ml/linux-kernel/2009-06/msg07628.html was trying to make a tsc2003 driver but it didn"t make its way to the kernel))

Raspberry Pi touchscreens is used for designing projects that limit the use of external input devices like keyboard or mouse. They can be used to create systems in which the hardware is perfectly embedded within one device.
Today we cover some of the best Raspberry Pi touchscreens that are available in the market. Let us know your favourite raspberry pi touchscreens in the comments section.
This Raspberry Pi touchscreens comes with zero documentation, hence requires technical understanding for operation and as a result, greater headache. The unit also does not come pre-assembled. Good for hobbyists and DIY enthusiasts. Software is easy but the stand is wobbly and unstable.
The capacitive touch screen measures 7 inches and is able to sense 10 fingers simultaneously. The kit comes with an adapter, ribbon cable, screws and jumpers.
The pixels in width were larger than the length hence causing the objects to appear a little smashed. The resolution was small too. The bezel surrounding the screen was wide in width where otherwise it could have been made as thin as possible. Nothing bad in it. It just looks a bit untidy. The backlight timeout blanks the page until you touch it again.
3.5 inches LCD display that comes in a kit and includes a clear transparent cover case. Useable with Raspberry Pi model B (3,2). There is a tutorial page to setup and make the LCD work.
The problem of setting up the work screen prevails with nearly all the Raspberry Pi’s LCD’s. Hence they need to be patiently setup with required support from the customer service office if required. The LCD works ‘OK’ after the setup. Small screen with poor resistive touch with no easy setup. But beats in terms of price. Slow refresh rates with no instructions makes it challenging. After upgrading to “Jessie” OS, it worked faster with out of the box touch screen digitizer.
It has a 3.5 inches resistive touchscreen with Serial Peripheral Interface. Compatible with Raspberry Pi 3 B RPi 2B/B+/A+ /A/B/Zero. Heat sinks come with them.
Touch screen works fine and as long as you get/follow instructions from someone its fine. (Refer to the customer support/user reviews for help). The case comes a little cheap and fragile. Fairly many problems with the case and hardware interface.
Eletrow gives a high definition multimedia interface monitor with a 5 inches high definition display. The LCD is a thin film transistor for Raspberry Pi 2B,B+ and 3B. A good alternative for those seeking a bigger display. It has a faster response and full color display. And can be used as a portable monitor.
The power requirement is low and it is USB powered. The system needs some installation and setup to start working. For those facing problems, must refer to user reviews about installation. The screen is bright and crisp. The viewing angle might produce a little pixelation effect.
Kuman’s comes with a 3.5 inches LCD display and resistive touch screen (Pressure applied to the surface of the display by a finger causes the layers to touch each other which completes the electric circuit and tells the system where the user is touching).
The screen is sharp and clear with vibrant text. The touch screen works well and comes with touch pen for precise input. A few hand problem starting up the LCD display (Must refer to user reviews and customer support if you are facing this problem).
You can also make such purchases that fit the Pi right with the LCD screens. The touch screen also needs to be calibrated once you set up the system. The system also doesn’t comes with cables.
Display size is 3.5 inches.Compatible with Raspberry Pi 2 model B and Raspberry Pi B+. Resolution is480*320, 65K color, 16 bit.Transmits data through SPI.
Customers find this pretty great because of case which “is a nice companion to the screen as the screen also doubles as the top cover. The assembly was easy and the plastic and tape came off with no resistance.”
“Top notch display screen for your Raspberry Pi at a great price. Also it’s not just for you Pis, it could be used on any HDMI system. I plugged it into my Win 10 laptop as soon as I got it to check that it was running. Windows 10 recognized it immediately to include the touch abilities of this screen.” – Amazon
“I bought this to use with a Raspberry Pi. However, I tested it with a few other things, just to play around with it. It works fantastically. So far, I have not been able to find a case that I like for it yet, so you will see in the photos, I temporarily used the box it came in to make an enclosure for both the screen, and my rPi. It’s actually pretty nice, and convenient to use this way (for now).” – Amazon
Alibaba.com offers 90,232 touch screen 7 inch products. such as call center and on-line technical support, others, and repair. You can also choose from 16:9, 4:3. As well as from new. And whether touch screen 7 inch is usb, dvi, or d-sub.
Early LCDs had terrible ghosting (anyone remember trying to play Doom on an early mono LCD and the image instantly turning into incomprehensible hash?), but I can"t find any references for actual numbers for the pixel flip time. I"d be interested to know how they compare to eink. Does anyone know?
For some reason the shiny, curved black plastic reminds me of a weird cross between Darth Vader and something a character in a Terry Gilliam film would use. Stick a Fresnel lens over the screen and you"re all set.
Even in non-power-constrained environments e-paper can be preferable - the glow of a typical LCD display is really distracting and doesn"t fit in a lot of (most) environments. Have enough gadgets around with LED displays and indicators and your home suddenly seems like a really bad 80s movie.
A thermostat with an always-on screen is the same, they"re already displaying information and the touch screen can be immediately used without delay - but we don"t want the display to be always on, because in general LCDs look awful in their environments. In general people prefer their homes to not look like server rooms with blinking lights and garish panels everywhere.
So there is a non-technological need to keep the screen off, and this presents a fundamental problem - before anything can be done, the screen must first be woken up. No matter how fast you make this process, at the end of the day is one extra step that the user must do before the device can be used.
The only real solution is for your devices to be always-on in a much more fundamental way - like your VCR or microwave - and that in some cases means e-ink screens.
EDIT2: I measured it frame-by-frame, it takes 5 frames from the moment the button starts to move until the screen is completely functional, showing the proper image. The video is at 25 fps, so that"s 200ms, for the whole device to go from non-powered to fully working animation.
With a device like your microwave (or your arcade game) steps 1 and 2 don"t exist, because the inputs are visible even when the screen is off. With your microwave you just walk up and start punching your desired buttons right away, the screen will catch up to you quickly.
Sure, yes, one reason we keep displays off most of the time is because of their usage, but more and more so it"s the secondary reason - there are lots of power efficient displays nowadays that can maintain an always-on screen at relatively low power cost, and smarthome devices generally aren"t reliant on battery power.
But the bigger problem is that LCD displays are ugly. They are backlit, and their response to better lighting in the room is to increase its own strength to make itself even more apparent. They are ugly, obnoxious, and annoying in the same way blinking router lights are, but multiplied several times over.
So we keep them off - we can afford to keep them on, but the fact that we keep them off 99% of the time less environmental consciousness but more an acknowledgment that they"re visually noisy, distracting, and just kind of don"t fit in. When you walk into a room you don"t want your attention immediately drawn to this LCD panel on the wall with its pale glow.
I think those are much more common in new installations. These are segmented LCD displays. An eInk display would not require an explicit segmentation layout, so new layouts could be programmed on the fly, prototyped very quickly, etc. And might even be a little easier to read, even during daylight hours I find these types of LCD displays difficult to read, especially from off-angles.
I"m more inclined to do the 6 rows of 7 displays which allow for a day aligned calendar for every month. It wastes a few displays of course, but the displays are easier to get.
I spent this weekend creating a small micro-controller system (freescale uC) with an attached tft lcd+touch, the latter cost me less than a 1/4 of this display and uses standard connections and readily available datasheets.
I"ve been working with these types of LCDs for a long time, and when it comes to these WVGA/SVGA 7" units you can get a ton from Asia at great prices but the factory will literally disappear in a few months. The LCD fabs constantly get bought/sold/churned as the major players like Sharp and LG shed off their last-generation fabs and the other smaller fish scoop them up.
Ideally a group like RPi will want to have the same part available for a long time so that they don"t need to create new revisions of the interface cables, power supplies, or software drivers to handle the change. It"s nearly impossible to autodetect one 7" LCD from another via software so you need to configure it entirely in a bootloader or kernel configuration line. And then that becomes a massive support issue.
My example is that you can rig the Pi to work with your own Receiver as a wifi flac player with this device: https://www.hifiberry.com/. You have to control it over wi-fi, but having a console that I can go up to and interact with will be awesome. Also will be great for people like my Father-in-law, I wanted to build him a device that has all 60s/70s/80s rock for christmas, but I didn"t want to have to set-up a wifi router and get a device for him just to control it.
So the PCB part does this "adapter" work to make the screen "talk" with the R-Pi, right? Screens for mobile devices, don"t they have any standards someone can use to build a similar PCB?
Still cheaper to source these parts yourself, you are right, but the official screen isn"t meant to be the cheapest, it"s meant to be cheap enough to be affordable, to workout-of-the-box, to be reliable, of good quality and have some guaranteed availability.
You can work with other screens and build and write your own interface if that"s part of the pleasure you get from hacking on these devices, but for people who have other goals, being able to get an affordable screen that just works allows them to spend their time on other parts of their project.
This is $60 plus taxes and shipping. I just found a 7-inch tablet for £28 ($43.10) on Amazon (plus a camera and RAM and stuff). Including taxes and shipping. Why is this so expensive?
Sales volumes determine economies of scale, it is likely the £28 tablet was made in quantities much larger than the pi screen (I"d guess at least 2 orders of magnitude).
Also, not all screens are equal. It"s not just resolution: there"s colour reproduction, viewing angles, brightness, contrast and response time. On the non-technical side mentioned on the blog, they mentioned they wanted a manufacture who would make the panel for a long time. I would bet a dollar that Pi screen beats the £28-tablet display on all the above parameters

I built my second astrobox and am using a tontec 7" touchscreen display. It works well but requires the use of an additional 12v power source. I am getting the official raspberry pi 7" touch to test with and it actually used the pi board for its power.

In the previous article, I described the steps needed to install an LCD touchscreen on the Raspberry Pi. In this article, I will show you how to adjust the screen rotation of the LCD to landscape mode, and will show you how to calibrate the touchscreen pointer for optimal accuracy. Just follow the steps below to compete the process of setting up your Raspberry Pi LCD touchscreen:
1. First we need to change the setting for screen rotation in the /boot/cmdline.txt file. This setting is called fbtft_device.rotate=X. By default, this is set to X=0, which results in a portrait mode screen orientation. In order to switch the orientation to landscape mode, change fbtft_device.rotate=0 to fbtft_device.rotate=90. Enter sudo nano /boot/cmdline.txt at the command prompt. There should only be one line in this file. Go to the end of it and you will find the fbtft_device.rotate=X setting. Change the value from 0 to 90:
However, if you try to touch the screen now, you will find that the pointer movement does not correspond to your finger movement. This is because the LCD screen driver and the touchscreen controller driver have separate settings for screen rotation. We need to change the rotation of the touchscreen controller driver to match the rotation of the LCD screen driver.
2. You probably noticed that dragging your finger to the right moves the pointer up, not to the right. This indicates that the x and y axes of the touchscreen are swapped. To correct this, we need to swap the x axis for the y axis. This can be done by changing the swap_xy=X parameter in /etc/modules.
Enter sudo nano /etc/modules at the command prompt to edit the file. Go to the line for the ads7846_device parameters and move the cursor to the right to find it:
Now if you drag your finger around the screen, you will notice that the y axis (up and down) is correctly aligned with the motion of your finger. However, the x axis (left and right) is still inverted. To fix this, we need to install two more kernel modules, xinput and evtest. xinput is a Linux utility that will allow us to configure input device settings for the touchscreen controller, and evtest is an input device event monitor and query tool.
After the Pi finishes rebooting, you should notice that when you move your finger across the touch screen, the pointer should follow correctly in both axes. If you are using the Raspberry Pi 2 Model B, you will need to complete the calibration steps below before the pointer follows your finger correctly (and make sure that you have enabled startx to load automatically – see step 6 in this article).
You can rotate the screen 90 degrees (as we did in this tutorial) and the power connector will be at the bottom of the screen, but you can also rotate it 270 degrees so that the power connector is at the top of the screen. To do this, simply enter fbtft_device.rotate=270 in the /boot/cmdline.txt file. Then change the DISPLAY=:0 xinput --set-prop "ADS7846 Touchscreen" "Evdev Axis Inversion" 0 1 line in the /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc file to DISPLAY=:0 xinput --set-prop "ADS7846 Touchscreen" "Evdev Axis Inversion" 1 0. All you need to do is switch the values of the 0 and 1 at the end of this line.
Now that we have our LCD touchscreen up and running, the final step in the installation is the calibration of touch control. This will make the pointer much more accurate and easier to use.
2. Now we need to install the calibration tool we will be using, xinput_calibrator; and other filters for controlling the touchscreen response. Install the tslib library by entering aptitude install libts-bin:
4. Now we can use ts_calibrate. Enter ts_calibrate at the command prompt (make sure you are still in root mode) to run the ts_calibrate program. The program will consecutively display five crosses on different parts of the screen, which you need to touch with as much precision as possible:
