The CFAF800480E0-050SC is a 5-inch color TFT LCD graphic display module with high-brightness, sunlight-readable backlight and a capacitive touch panel (CTP).
The touch panel can detect up to 5 separate touch points. This TFT display is suitable for industrial, media, embedded and other general-purpose display applications.

This 5.0" TFT screen has lots of pixels, 800x480 to be exact, and an LED backlight. Its great for when you need a lot of space for graphics. These screens are commonly seen in consumer electronics, such as miniature TV"s, GPS"s, handheld games car displays, etc. A 40-pin connector has 8 red, 8 green, and 8 blue parallel pins, for 24 bit color capability.
This version does not have touchscreen attachedIt"s exactly the same TFT display as PID 1596 but without the resistive touch panel so it is a little less expensive.
This is a "raw pixel-dot-clock" display and does not have an SPI/parallel type controller or any kind of RAM. The display is supposed to be constantly refreshed, at 60Hz, with a pixel clock, V sync, H sync, etc. There are some high end processors such as that used in the BeagleBone that can natively support such RGB TTL displays. However, it is extremely rare for a small microcontroller to support it, as you need dedicated hardware or a very fast processor such as an FPGA. Not only that, but the backlight requires a constant-current mode boost converter that can go as high as 24V instead of our other small displays that can run the backlight off of 5V
For that reason, we are carrying it only as a companion to the Adafruit RA8875 driver board in the store, which is a chip that can handle the huge video RAM and timing requirements, all in the background. That"s the best way to interface this display to just about any microcontroller (including Arduino & friends) If you are an advanced electronics enthusiast you can try wiring this directly to your processor, but it we don"t have any support or tutorials for that purpose.

Spice up your Arduino project with a beautiful large touchscreen display shield with built in microSD card connection. This TFT display is big (5" diagonal) bright (18 white-LED backlight) and colorful 800x480 pixels with individual pixel control. As a bonus, this display has a capacitive touch panel attached on screen by default.
The shield is fully assembled, tested and ready to go. No wiring, no soldering! Simply plug it in and load up our library - you"ll have it running in under 10 minutes! Works best with any classic Arduino Mega2560.
This display shield has a controller built into it with RAM buffering, so that almost no work is done by the microcontroller. You can connect more sensors, buttons and LEDs.

I recently found a discount code through SlickDeals for $10 off the Elecrow 5" HDMI Touchscreen display for the Raspberry Pi. Since the Raspberry Pi was introduced, I"ve wanted to try out one of these mini screens (touchscreen or no), but they"ve always been prohibitively expensive (usually $60+).
This screen hit the right price (even regular price is $40, which is near my "okay for experimentation" range), and I picked it up, not knowing what to expect. I"ve had mixed experiences with Pi accessories from Amazon, and had never tried a product from Elecrow.
The display is pretty solid, and comes well packed in styrofoam with four standoffs for mounting, a cheap plastic stylus, and a male-to-male HDMI daughter-card. Getting the Pi onto the board is easy enough; I used one standoff through one of the Pi"s mounting holes (on the side with the HDMI plug), then seated the Pi directly on top of the GPIO slot on the display board, so so the HDMI ports would line up perfectly on the other side.
The Elecrow officially supports the Raspberry Pi 3 model B, but I tested it with a 2 model B as well. I didn"t try it with a B+, but the hardware layout should work, so at least the HDMI display would work correctly (not sure about the touchscreen controls). The way the hardware is laid out, you seat the Raspberry Pi directly onto a GPIO socket (it takes up the first 13 sets of GPIO pins—pins 1-26), and then there"s an included HDMI male-to-male daughtercard that slots in nicely to connect the HDMI output of the Pi to the HDMI input on the display.
There"s an extra OTG USB plug on the display if you want to give it a separate power source, but if you plug it straight into the Pi"s GPIO, it will leech off the 5V connection. As long as you have a good 2A power supply for your Pi, though, you shouldn"t have to worry about supplying independent power to the display. In my usage, I only saw the overvolt indicator every now and then (just like I do in normal usage of the Pi 3, since it uses a bit more power than a 2!).
When I first booted the Pi attached to the display, there was a large white area on the right, and only the left portion of the screen was being used by the Pi (it was only using 640x480 of the 800x480 display). To fix this, you have to set a few display options in the configuration file the Raspberry Pi reads during startup to switch certain hardware settings.
Besides being a 800x480 HDMI display, the Elecrow also has a touchscreen overlay that allows simple one-point resistive touch detection on the screen. Note that at best, resistive touch is not nearly as responsive and intuitive as capacitive touch detection, which you"re likely used to on any recent smartphone or tablet screen. But something is better than nothing, when it comes to building simple UIs for "Internet of Things" devices or other fun things.
These commands first install the touchscreen calibration utility, then configure the Pi to use the correct GPIO settings so touches can be interpreted as mouse moves/clicks by the Pi.
After you make those changes, reboot the Pi via the UI or in the Terminal with sudo reboot. Once it reboots, you need to calibrate the touchscreen. To do that, go to Menu > Preferences > Calibrate Touchscreen (see image below):
Once calibrated, the accuracy is pretty good, using either the included stylus or your fingernail. Note that the default Raspberry Pi UI is totally unoptimized for small (or even large) touchscreen use. You should probably get to work building your own touchscreen UI now :)
For ~$30 ($40 without discount), I wasn"t expecting a mind-blowing retina display with excellent glare-reducing coatings and contrast. But I do expect no dead pixels, and at least a crisp, vibrant picture when looking straight on. This screen is "good enough" in that regard, though viewing angles aren"t too great; side to side is okay, but looking down from above or up from below results in a bit of a washed out picture. Also, there is no antireflective coating on the screen, so wherever you use it, you need to be aware of nearby light sources.
So, to summarize the review: this is everything I expected out of a sub-$50 display. It"s nothing like a high-end smartphone display with capacitive touch, so if that"s what you"re expecting, you"ll have to look elsewhere. But if you just want a small display that mounts to the Pi easily and is more affordable than the Raspberry Pi Foundation"s own 7" touchscreen, this is a great buy!

The Transmissive polarizer is best used for displays that run with the backlight on all the time. This polarizer provides the brightest backlight possible. If you have a need for a bright backlight with lower power drain, transmissive is a good choice for this TFT LCD display.

Raspberry Pi leads out 40 GPIO pins, while the screen leads out 26 pins. When connecting, pay attention to the corresponding pins and Raspberry Pi pins.
5) Insert the TF card into the Raspberry Pi, power on the Raspberry Pi, and wait for more than 10 seconds to display normally. But the touch is abnormal at that time, and the touch needs to be calibrated as the following steps.
You can perform touch calibration by clicking the Raspberry Pi icon on the taskbar, selecting Preferences -> Calibrate Touchscreen, and following the displayed prompts.
4. After calibration, the following data will be displayed. If you want to save these touch values, you can replace the data in the red circle with the data in the corresponding position in 99-calibration.conf.

Well, no one said about the 4D Systems Displays, and personally I don"t think much people use it, probably because it"s much more expensive then the rest.
But I do use an 7" inch display, I and I couldn"t be happier about my choice. It"s expensive, but totally worth it. I"m not a skilled programmer, so when I was looking for a display my main concern was, will I be able to do a nice graphic interface?
That was really easy with the 4D display, using ViSi Genie and their intuitive graphical IDE, and since it has an embebed processor the loading are quite fast, the touch are quite responsive and the Arduino isn"t even needed for simple tasks (as changing from one screen to another, for example). Today my project have 9 diferent screens, with a screensaver, sd card reader, digital clock, alarm ringing, set alarm, among others...
So, if you have alot of programming background fine, go with the others guys recomendations, if you are not, and are afraid of ending up with an ugly design like I was, just go for 4D display, you can"t go wrong.
By the way, there also have a way to program the display directly, but for that is needed to buy the IDE (Genie Magic), I own this display for almost a year now, and haven"t find anything that really justifies buying it yet, almost everything that I wanted to do I could manage with the free version using ViSi Genie. Also, they have a really good support, and a forum too..
