7-inch IPS Touch Display for Mini PCs

This 7-inch portable monitor uses an IPS panel with a 1024×600 hardware resolution and a capacitive touch surface. It connects over HDMI for video and USB for touch input, making it suitable for Raspberry Pi boards, BeagleBone Black and standard desktop computers running Windows 10, 8.1, 8 or 7. The backlight can be switched off to reduce power draw.

Upgrade from Non-Touch or Smaller Screens

The Rev4.1 revision adds five-point touch without driver installation on supported Windows versions and on Raspberry Pi OS, Ubuntu, Kali and Retropie when the required config.txt change is applied. Builders moving from a basic HDMI panel or a smaller display gain touch control and a wider viewing angle in the same compact footprint.

Integration Needs and Freedoms

A micro-HDMI cable and a USB-A-to-Micro-B cable are required for Raspberry Pi Zero; a standard HDMI cable is needed for BeagleBone Black. No extra power supply is mentioned, so the unit draws from the host USB port. The driver-free operation on major platforms frees up setup time and avoids kernel-module maintenance.

Questions about this item

What cables do I need to connect this 7-inch monitor to a Raspberry Pi Zero?

You need an HDMI cable and a USB Type-A receptacle to Micro-B plug cable, both purchased separately, for the Pi Zero to drive the display and touch.

Which step in the Raspberry Pi setup is most often missed and stops the screen from working?

Adding hdmi_drive=1 to the end of config.txt before first boot is required; without it the LCD will not display correctly and may flicker.

How do I reduce the power draw of this 1024×600 IPS panel when running on battery?

The backlight can be turned off to lower power consumption while the touch function remains active.
