Hello DFRobot Support Team,

 

I am interested in your 8.8" 480×1920 IPS Capacitive Touch Display (SKU: FIT0941).

 

I noticed on your product page and wiki that the supported models listed are the Raspberry Pi 3B, 3B+, and 4B. Could you please confirm if this display is compatible with the Raspberry Pi 5?

 

Specifically, I would like to know:

If the provided driver (dfrobot-8-8-inch-dsi.deb) works on Raspberry Pi OS (Bookworm) running on a Pi 5.If using a standard 15-pin to 22-pin DSI adapter cable and powering the Pi 5 separately via its own USB-C power supply will make the screen and touch function properly. 

Thank you in advance for your help and clarification.

Best regards,

You can take a look at this product: DFR1125. This one is compatible with Raspberry Pi 5. The SKU you mentioned did not mention compatibility with Raspberry Pi 5. Therefore, it is not recommended to attempt it, as their DSI driver architecture has changed.
