Compatibility
This display is compatible with all Raspberry Pi models that feature an HDMI port, including Pi 4, Pi 3, Pi 2, and Pi Zero (with mini-HDMI adapter). It also works with other single-board computers or devices that support HDMI output and USB touch input. The standard HDMI and USB connections make it plug-and-play on most Linux-based systems with the appropriate drivers.
Wiring Notes
Connect the HDMI cable from the display to your Raspberry Pi's HDMI port. Plug the USB cable from the display into one of the Pi's USB ports for touch. If the display includes power pins, you can power it via the Pi's 5V and GND GPIO pins, or use a separate micro USB power input. Ensure the Pi provides sufficient current; a 2.5A power supply is recommended for the Pi plus display.
