Description
HyperPixel 4.0 is the perfect way to use your RPi without a bunch of cables or a bulky display. Design your own interface to control your project, display data, or turn your Pi into a tiny media centre.
This version of HyperPixel has a gorgeous IPS display, with wide viewing angles, custom-made cover glass, and the alternate I²C interface is broken out for advanced users.
Features
- High-speed DPI interface
- 4.0' IPS (wide viewing angle, 160°) display (86.4 x 51.8 mm)
- 800x480 pixels (~235 PPI)
- 18-bit colour (262,144 colors)
- 60 FPS frame rate
- Contrast ratio: 500:1
- Capacitive touch
- 40-pin female header included to boost height for Raspberry Pi B+, 2, 3, 3B+ and 4
- Standoffs included to securely attach to your RPi
- Compatible with all 40-pin header Raspberry Pi models
- One-line installer
- Dimensions: 58.5 x 97 x 12 mm (WxHxD, depth includes header and display)
HyperPixel uses a high-speed DPI interface, allowing it to shift 5x more pixel data than the usual SPI interface that these small Pi displays use. It has a 60 FPS frame rate and a resolution of approximately 235 pixels per inch (800x480) on its 4.0' display. The display can show 18-bits of colour (262,144 colors).
This Touch version has a capacitive touch display that's more sensitive and responsive to touch than a resistive touch display, and it's capable of multi-touch!
Everything comes fully-assembled, and there's no soldering required! The display is securely stuck down to the HyperPixel 4.0 PCB and connected via a neat little flush-mounting FPC cable. Just pop HyperPixel 4.0 on your RPi and run our installer to get everything set up!
Please note: when installing HyperPixel 4.0 onto your RPi make sure not to press down on the screen surface! Hold the board by its edges and wiggle it to mate with the extended header (or GPIO header). Also take care not to pull on the edges of the glass display when removing your HyperPixel.
It'll work with any 40-pin version of the RPi, including RPi Zero and RPi Zero W. If you're using it with a larger RPi then use the extra 40-pin header that's included to boost it up to the required height. If you're using a Zero or Zero W then just pop it straight onto the GPIO.
The included standoff kit allows you to mount your HyperPixel 4.0 safely and securely to your RPi. Just screw them into the posts on the underside of the HyperPixel 4.0 PCB and then secure with screws through the mounting holes on your RPi.
