Product List 5inch DSI LCD (B) x1 FPC 15PIN 1.0 pitch 50mm (opposite sides) x1 DSI-Cable-12cm x1 FPC 15PIN 1.0 pitch 160mm (opposite sides) x1 Screws pack x1 Other Content 5inch DSI LCD (B) is a practical option when you need a compact touch display with wider board compatibility than a Raspberry Pi-only screen. In addition to Raspberry Pi support, it also covers VisionFive 2, Tinker Board 2, and Core3566, which makes it useful for multi-platform development and testing. For CM3, CM3+, and CM4 integration, an extra adapter board is required. This is an important point for carrier-board projects and custom CM-based builds. The display also supports power supply via pogo pin, helping keep wiring cleaner in compact product designs.
