4.3 tft lcd raspberry pi quotation
※Price Increase NotificationThe TFT glass cell makers such as Tianma,Hanstar,BOE,Innolux has reduced or stopped the production of small and medium-sized tft glass cell from August-2020 due to the low profit and focus on the size of LCD TV,Tablet PC and Smart Phone .It results the glass cell price in the market is extremely high,and the same situation happens in IC industry.We deeply regret that rapidly rising costs for glass cell and controller IC necessitate our raising the price of tft display.We have made every attempt to avoid the increase, we could accept no profit from the beginning,but the price is going up frequently ,we"re now losing a lot of money. We have no choice if we want to survive. There is no certain answer for when the price would go back to the normal.We guess it will take at least 6 months until these glass cell and semiconductor manufacturing companies recover the production schedule.

All the accessories listed below tier pricing need to pay.We won"t deliver until you select. Power adaptor should be 5V/2000mA in output and center pin for positive voltage and the outer shield for negative voltage .The temperature for controller RTD2660 would increase during working.That"s normal phenomenon,not quality problem.

This is a compact yet useful 4.3" IPS capacitive touch screen display with a resolution of 800 x 480. Only one DSI flat cable is needed between Raspberry Pi and the display! It is compatible with:
Please peel off the protective tape (transparent yellowish) if there is any, before mounting the spacers or screws. We recommend adding the 5mm PCB spacer before mounting the Raspberry Pi board to increase the space between the LCD. This will also help in handling the microSD card.
Note: Due to the compact size of 4.3" size, there is no LCD stand suitable for it. However, we would suggest getting a pair of M2.5 x 15mm brass spacer + nut as the supporting stands. The M2.5 brass spacers are NOT Included in the LCD package, please get them from the M2.5 Brass Spacer kit.
Don"t have a keyboard with you? Don"t worry. You can always use a virtual keyboard on your Raspberry Pi screen. Let us show you how.Go to Preference > Add / Remove Software
As far as we have tested, this screen works out of the box with the official Raspberry Pi OS, Ubuntu-Mate, Kali, Retropie, OctoScreen and OctoDash on OctoPrint :) Awesome!
CONS: low refresh rate & resolution, supports Raspberry Pi only, requires Raspberry Pi 40PIN GPIO (the SPI bus), poor compatibility with Raspberry Pi system.
PROS: high refresh rate, multiple resolution support, multiple devices support, leaves the Raspberry Pi 40PIN GPIO free, better compatibility with Raspberry Pi system.
This is a 5" Raspberry Pi LCD touchscreen with 800x480 resolution and 108×64.8mm display area. The product supports the Raspberry Pi DSI display interface and comes with a capacitive touch panel on its screen and supports 5 touch points.
The special holes design on the back of the screen is convenient to directly install the Raspberry Pi in the product. There is no need to provide external power for the touchscreen as the Raspberry Pi power supply is adopted. In addition, the screen supports hardware backlight adjustment. The function can be realized by turning the potentiometer on the back of the display.
I recently got the new raspi camera module and it works totally fine. But whenever i also connect my 4.3 inch Display with the pi I get the following response:
Also, the WiFi really works horribly when the display is connected, but whenever I disconnect the display all works perfectly. My first guess is, that the display simply needs too much power, so my raspi 3b+ isn"t able to properly use anything else.
If it really is the power supply, is it possible to use an additional power source? (The display is only connected via the onboard display port and doesn"t have its own power supply possibility, here"s a link to the display: https://www.waveshare.com/4.3inch-dsi-lcd.htm )
Another option would be to get the new Raspi 4b, but i read, that it already needs a bit more power to run, so I"m not sure if it would be any better.
What does waveshare say? The DSI and CSI share the same I2C interface on the standard PI --> maybe waveshare did not consider this when designing the display
just to add any more information: the raspi at least knows, that the cam is connected. Running "vcgencmd get_camera" gives me "supported=1 detected=1". It still bothers me, that the WiFi doesnt really work (it needs to be damn close to the router and the speed/ping is horrible).
Update: when using a python-script taking a picture works perfectly fine, so i guess theres a problem with raspistill/raspivid + the display? Still, wifi annoys me tho
Yeah, already thought of that too. Problem is, that even after a clean install the problem occurs. But since it was mentioned, that the cam and the display use the same interface, maybe that"s exactly the problem. Question is how to solve that problem. I mean i already got it running 2 times (1 time with raspistill, 1 time with a python script), but it"s pretty random if it works or not.
It works with just the screen, it works with just the camera but when both are connected you state "I got it running 2 times (1 time with raspistill, 1 time with a python script), but it"s pretty random if it works"
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.
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.
This is kind of a long process, but it is well worth it if you want to get the LCD touchscreen set up properly. So if you have any trouble setting this up or have anything to say, please leave a comment below. Also, if you found this article useful, please share it with your friends!
