Raspberry Pi - HDMI 4 Pi: 5" Display (no Touch) w/Mini Driver - 800x480 HDMI info

Raspberry Pi - HDMI 4 Pi: 5" Display (no Touch) w/Mini Driver - 800x480 HDMI is a 5" TFT display with WVGA 800x480 resolution and a little driver board. We tried to match it with a small driver board that can be powered from a USB port. The driver board only has an HDMI input.

There's a little wired PCB with little buttons that let you enter a menu system for adjusting brightness, color and contrast. It tries to auto-detect which input you have and switches to that one or you can 'select' from the menu keypad which to display.

Raspberry Pi - HDMI 4 Pi: 5" Display (no Touch) w/Mini Driver - 800x480 HDMI will work connected to any device with HDMI output.

For use with a Raspberry Pi we suggest editing config.txt to set the HDMI to 800x480 in case it doesn't detect the resolution properly. The easiest way to edit the config.txt is to put the Pi SD card into an every day computer and edit config.txt with any text editor and save. For use with a Beagle Bone Black, we found it works when plugged in, no configuration required.

A power adapter is not included or required! Use a 500mA-capable 5V USB port or you can cut the USB power cable and re-wire to another 5V source.
