800x480 Capacitive Touchscreen EVE TFT Module

Part Number: CFAF800480E1-050SC-A2

If you're looking for a powerful display module, you've come to the right place. This 5" display has extremely wide viewing angles, is sunlight-readable, and supports 5-point capacitive touch. Not only is the TFT display wonderful, it is powered by the BT817 EVE chip. The EVE chip enables exceptional graphics control, backlight control, touch sensing, and audio - all mapped as SPI devices making communications with this module a breeze.

This module comprises the 5" TFT display (CFAF800480E1-050SC), mounted on an EVE accelerator PCB (CFA10100).

This module replaces the CFAF800480E1-050SC-A1-1, per PCN #11076. The change is to the CFA10100 board, upgrading from the FT813 EVE chip to the BT817.

    End-Of-Life #11178: PCB Change
    Products Affected: CFAF800480E1-050SN-A2-2, CFAF800480E1-050SN-A2, CFAF800480E1-050SR-A2-2, CFAF800480E1-050SR-A2, CFAF800480E1-050SC-A2, CFAF800480E1-050SC-A2-2, CFAF800480E2-050SC-A2, CFAF800480E2-050SC-A2-2
    Date Issued: March 2, 2023
    Summary: PCB Change
    Description: The PCB is changing due to a critical component going EOL. The new PCB design will not affect the functionality of the product and it will continue to use the same BT817Q graphical processor. Additional hardware features are added to the new design including land patterns for an ESP32 or XIAO to remove the need for an external processor to drive the EVE4 chip.

    The part numbers will be updated as follows to reflect this change.
    CFAF800480E1-050SC-A2 -> CFA800480E3-050SC
    CFAF800480E1-050SC-A2-2 -> CFA800480E3-050SC-KIT
    CFAF800480E1-050SN-A2 -> CFA800480E3-050SN
    CFAF800480E1-050SN-A2-2 -> CFA800480E3-050SN-KIT
    CFAF800480E1-050SR-A2 -> CFA800480E3-050SR
    CFAF800480E1-050SR-A2-2 -> CFA800480E3-050SR-KIT
    CFAF800480E2-050SC-A2 -> CFA800480E3-050SW
    CFAF800480E2-050SC-A2-2 -> CFA800480E3-050SW-KIT
    Reason: The helper processor on this display has gone EOL and needed to be replaced.
