The OSOYOO 7" DSI touch screen connects to your Raspberry Pi through the DSI port. One cable carries the display signal, the touch signal, and power — so it uses no GPIO pins, no HDMI port and no USB port, and all 40 GPIO pins stay free for your own DIY projects. It is plug and play: no driver needs to be installed.
Why DSI?
- One cable does it all: display, touch, and power travel over the single DSI ribbon cable.
- No GPIO occupied: unlike SPI screens, it does not use the SPI bus or any GPIO pins.
- No HDMI needed: the same clarity as an HDMI screen, without taking the HDMI port and without any HDMI licence cost.
- Driver-free: connect the cable, power on, and the screen just works.
Features
- 7" TN LCD with 800 × 480 physical resolution, 24-bit colour and about 60 Hz refresh rate
- TN panel designed for direct viewing: a clear, sharp image with fast response — best suited for applications where the display is viewed primarily from the front
- 60° viewing angle on all four sides (60/60/60/60)
- 5-finger capacitive touch (touch points depend on the OS; multi-touch may need settings)
- Display size adjustable from 800 × 480 up to 1920 × 1080
- Strong anti-interference, ultra-low power consumption, ultra-long distance lossless transmission, automatic sleep when not in use
- Reserved fixing holes for mounting Raspberry Pi boards
- Free drive support for Raspberry Pi OS, Ubuntu MATE, Kali, RetroPie, OpenElec, OSMC, Arch and more
- Compatible with Raspberry Pi 2, 3, 3B+, 3A+, 4, and 5

Please note
- This is the user manual for the V3.x 7" DSI screen. If you receive the V1.0 7" DSI screen, please use the V1.0 tutorial instead.
- On Trixie / Bookworm, backlight brightness is adjusted at Preferences → Control Center → Screens → DSI-2 → Brightness, then Apply. Display rotation is set at Screens → DSI-2 → Orientation, then Apply — the display and touch rotate together. In Bookworm the setting entry is at Screen Configuration → Screen.
- Working temperature is −5 °C to 38 °C. Use in high humidity or extreme temperature environments is not suggested.
- Please make sure your micro SD card has enough space for the system image, and do not touch the Raspberry Pi board while power is on.
