5.0 inch capacitive touch screen — A 5.0 inch IPS TFT with 800 x 480 resolution and a multi-touch projected capacitive panel. IPS keeps colour stable at 80/80/80/80 viewing angles, and avoids the ripple effect a TN panel can show when an optically bonded touch panel is pressed.

FAQ
Why choose an IPS panel for a 5.0 inch capacitive touch screen?
When a touch panel is optically bonded to a TN panel, pressing hard can create a visible ripple. IPS panels do not show this, so IPS is the safer choice for optical bonding. If the touch panel is frame bonded, the air gap means either panel type works.
What is the resolution and interface of the 5.0 inch module?
800 x 480 pixels with an RGB display interface and an I2C capacitive touch interface.
Is the 5.0 inch touch screen available with a custom cover glass?
Yes. Cover glass outline, thickness, surface treatment (AG, AR, AF) and logo printing can all be customised.
