5" 720x1280 Touchscreen Compute Module TFT Display

Part Number: CFA050A0-PI-MBCT

This family of modules takes the complexity out of designing a high-resolution display into an end product or hobby project. These modules have mating connectors for the Raspberry Pi CM4 and support for the modules is included in the official Raspberry Pi OS distribution. Only a few overlays in the config.txt file are needed for this display to be ready to use.

With the potential to utilize 32 separate GPIOs, PCIe, USB, and Ethernet, the possibilities are endless. The module's 40-pin header allows standard Pi HATs to be plugged in. Additionally, the module includes an expansion header with USB, Ethernet, PCIe, USB, and additional GPIOs for daughter boards or cables to be used. For more technical details, refer to our CFA050_PI_M guide.

The module has a full color, 5-inch, 720x1280 resolution TFT display and capacitive touch panel. The high pixel density and In-Plane Switching (IPS) make this display look sharp at any angle.
