Introduction

1024x600, 7inch IPS Display for Raspberry Pi, DPI interface, no Touch

More

Features

  • 1024x600 high resolution
  • Compatible with Raspberry Pi 2B/3B/Zero/Zero W
  • The TFT LCD is directly driven by Raspberry Pi DPI interface, refresh rate up to 60Hz
  • Supports Raspbian, Ubuntu, OSMC, etc.
  • Back light control to lower power consumption
  • Compact size, suit for various projects

How to use

Hardware connection
  • 1. Write the Raspbian, Ubuntu Mate, or OSMC system image to your micro SD card. You can download the images from Raspberry Pi web site https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/
  • 2. Edit the /boot/config.txt file in the SD card and append the following lines:
dtoverlay=dpi24
enable_dpi_lcd=1
display_default_lcd=1
dpi_group=2
dpi_mode=87
dpi_output_format=0x6f005
hdmi_cvt 1024 600 60 6 0 0 0
Note:
  • You must make sure that there are no spaces on either side of the equal sign.
  • If your system is installed from NOOBS, you have to connect your Pi to another monitor and hold down the shift key while system booting to edit the config file.
  • 3. Save the file and insert the SD card into your Pi.
  • 4. Turn on the backlight switch.
  • 5. Power up and the LCD will display in most cases.
  • Note: RGB LCD HAT is designed for many LCD types, and the VCOM voltage can be changed by fine tuning the VCOM adjustable resistor to get a proper image. Each LCD may has a slightly different VCOM voltage, in some cases, you have to adjust it to get a better image. Besides, VCOM voltage cannot exceed a certain range. Long working out of the VCOM voltage range may lead to LCD damages, so please don't make the LCD work in abnormal status more than 10 secs while adjusting the resistor.
