Overview

The GEN4-ULCD-35DCT-CLB-PI is a 3.5-inch intelligent TFT LCD module designed specifically for integration with the Raspberry Pi. It features a 480 x 320 pixel resolution (HVGA) with a capacitive touch interface and a Cover Lens Bezel (CLB) for professional-grade flush mounting. The module is powered by the DIABLO16 processor and includes a 4D Serial Pi Adapter for simplified 5V UART interfacing.

Why Choose This Part

This module offloads demanding graphics processing to the dedicated DIABLO16 controller, freeing up Raspberry Pi CPU cycles for application logic. The included adapter and 5-pin connection simplify the wiring process by utilizing a standard UART interface and 5V power supply.

Applications

Industrial HMI
Developing rugged control interfaces with capacitive touch and a clean, flush-mount bezel for factory automation systems.
Raspberry Pi Dashboard
Creating compact, high-resolution visual telemetry displays for SBC-based monitoring or control stations.
IoT Gateway Interface
Adding a local touch UI to IoT edge devices for configuration and real-time data visualization.
