Electrical Specifications

Parameters Minimum Value Standard Value Maximum Value Unit Note
Input voltage 4.75 5.00 5.30 V Note 1
Input current - 0.5 TBD A Note 2
Operating temperature 0 25 60 Note 3
Storage temperature -10 25 70 Note 3

•Note 1: Input voltages exceeding the maximum or improper operation may cause permanent damage to the device.
•Note 2: The input current needs to be ≥ 0.5A, otherwise it will cause the startup failure or display abnormality, and staying in an abnormal state for a long time may cause permanent damage to the device.
•Note 3: Please do not store the display panel in a high-temperature and high-humidity environment for a long time. The display panel should operate within its limits, otherwise it may be damaged.

Hardware Connection

Pi5 Hardware Connection

1. Use the "FFC Cable 22PIN 200mm (opposite direction)" to connect the DSI port of the display to the 22PIN DSI port of the Raspberry Pi motherboard.
2. Use the "GPIO cable" to connect the power connector of the display to the 5V GND pin header of the Raspberry Pi motherboard.
3. Secure the Raspberry Pi to the display with M2.5 screws.

The installation effect is as follows:

Note: Make sure that the DSI cable is connected in correct direction and 5V power is supplied through the GPIO pins.

Pi4B/3B+/3B/3A+ Hardware Connection

1. Use the "DSI-Cable-12cm" cable to connect the DSI port of the display to the 15PIN DSI port of the Raspberry Pi motherboard.
2. Use the "GPIO cable" to connect the power connector of the display to the 5V GND pin header of the Raspberry Pi motherboard.
3. Secure the Raspberry Pi to the display with M2.5 screws.

The installation effect is as follows:

Software Settings

For Bookworm and Bullseye System

1. Connect the TF card to the PC, download and use Raspberry Pi Imager to flash the corresponding system image.

2. After the burning is completed, connect the TF card to the Raspberry Pi, start the Raspberry Pi, and log in to the terminal of the Raspberry Pi (you can connect the Raspberry Pi to the HDMI display or use ssh to log in remotely).
3. Run the following command on the terminal to install the driver:

#Step 1: Download and enter the Waveshare-DSI-LCD driver folder
git clone https://github.com/waveshare/Waveshare-DSI-LCD
cd Waveshare-DSI-LCD
#Step 2: Enter uname -a on the terminal to view the kernel version, and cd it to the corresponding file directory #6.6.51 then run the following command cd 6.6.51
#Step 3: Please determine the bits of the current system you are using. For a 32-bit system, proceed to the 32 directory, and for a 64-bit system, proceed to the 64 directory cd 64 #cd 32
#Step 4: Enter your corresponding model command to install the driver, pay attention to the selection of the I2C dip switches #7inch DSI LCD(H) 1280×720 Driver: sudo bash ./WS_xinchDSI_MAIN.sh 70H I2C0
#Step 5: Wait for a few seconds, when the driver installation is complete and no error is displayed, restart and load the DSI driver to use it normally sudo reboot #Note: The steps above require that the Raspberry Pi can connect to the internet normally

5. Wait for the system to reboot, it will be able to display and touch normally.

Bookworm Touch Screen Rotation

  • 1. Open the Screen Configuration application;

Note: Only the Bookworm system supports the above synchronization rotation method. For the Bullseye and Butser systems, manual separate settings for touch rotation are required after displaying the rotation.

Bullseye/Buster Display Rotation

  • 1. Open the "Screen Configuration" application;

Bullseye/Buster Touch Rotation

sudo nano /boot/config.txt
# The command to modify the touch rotation angle at the end of the config.txt file will take effect after restarting (the command with 0° touch direction exists by default)
#0°:
dtoverlay=WS_xinchDSI_Touch,invertedx,swappedxy
#90°:
dtoverlay=WS_xinchDSI_Touch,invertedx,invertedy
#180°:
dtoverlay=WS_xinchDSI_Touch,invertedy,swappedxy
#270°:
dtoverlay=WS_xinchDSI_Touch

lite Version Display Rotation

sudo nano /boot/cmdline.txt
#Add a command to display the rotation angle at the beginning of the cmdline.txt file, and save it to take effect after restarting
#Display rotation 90 degrees
video=DSI-1:1280x800M@60,rotate=90
#Display rotation 180 degrees
video=DSI-1:1280x800M@60,rotate=180
#Display rotation 270 degrees
video=DSI-1:1280x800M@60,rotate=270

Screen Sleep

Run the following command on the Raspberry Pi terminal and the screen will go to sleep:

xset dpms force off

Disable Touch

At the end of the config.txt file, add the following command corresponding to disabling touch (the config file is located in the root directory of the TF card, which can also be accessed by the command: sudo nano /boot/config.txt):

disable_touchscreen=1

Note: After adding a command, it needs to be restarted to take effect.
