The 7-inch Zed Touch Display Kit provides engineers with everything needed to develop products with interactive GUIs and touchscreen capabilities. The kit combines an 800 x 480 WVGA TFT-LCD display with an industrial projective capacitive touch sensor, I2C-based touch controller, LED backlight supply and all the necessary cables. The touch display easily connects to the ZedBoardTm, MicroZedTm with compatible carrier, PicoZedTm with compatible carrier, or ZynqRegistered Mini-ITX through the standard DisplayPort cable and adapter cards included with the kit. The projected capacitive touch overlay provides enhanced touch ruggedness which is suitable for outdoor or industrial environments.

 

Part Change Notification: Part Number: AES-ALI2-ZED-G has been replaced by AES-ALI3-ZED-G.

 

Features:

  • Output to integrated 7” WVGA display
  • Provides benefits of Avnet PCAP touch solution
  • Touch overlay capabilities
  • Single finger touch
  • Up to 6 mm glass panel thickness
  • Suitable for high humidity environment
  • Supports industrial requirements
  • Water rejection and immunity

 

Enhanced Features:

  • More tightly integrated touch solution where the projected capacitive (PCAP) touch controller is now integrated with the ITO sensor.
  • New mechanical mounting enclosure couples the display, touch overlay, and adapter board into a more rugged assembly than the previous generation kit. Mechanical 3D model for this enclosure is available to customers as a potential starting point or reference for their own product enclosure design.
  • Migration to more compact Mini DisplayPort connector format for display adapter boards. -Updated reference design tutorials available for download from ZedBoard.org community website.
