Description Waveshare 5-DSI-TOUCH-A is a 5inch DSI capacitive touch display built for Raspberry Pi and other DSI-capable embedded platforms that need a compact high-resolution screen with touch support. It features a 720×1280 IPS panel, 5-point capacitive touch, optically bonded toughened glass, and a compact mechanical structure suited to embedded terminals, portable control panels, and industrial UI applications. It also supports multiple platforms beyond Raspberry Pi, including ESP32-P4, RK3506, and RK3576-class solutions according to the official support information. Features 5inch IPS display: 720×1280 resolution with sharp detail and wide viewing angles. DSI interface: Designed for direct DSI connection on compatible embedded hosts, helping reduce wiring complexity. 5-point capacitive touch: Supports multi-touch interaction for modern GUI and HMI applications. Toughened glass with optical bonding: Improves front-surface durability and display integration quality. Broad platform support: Official support references Raspberry Pi, ESP32-P4, RK3506, and RK3576 related systems. Compact portrait-oriented panel: Well suited to vertical touch UI layouts, with software-side configuration possible for different orientations.
