Input voltage range: min. 4.75 V / standard 5.00 V / max. 5.25 V.
Input current: min. 750 mA, standard 800 mA; power supply should provide at least 3000 mA, otherwise start-up failures or abnormal display may occur.
Operating temperature range: 0–60 °C; storage temperature: -10–70 °C.
Overall dimensions: 192.96(H) × 110.76(V) × 17.00(D) mm; weight approx. 227 g.
Display interface: Mini HDMI; powered via 5V Type-C connector.

Commands and examples – verify before use:

hdmi_force_hotplug=1
config_hdmi_boost=10
hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=87
hdmi_cvt 1024 600 60 6 0 0 0

Notes and version constraints

The config.txt lines are version-sensitive: newer Raspberry Pi OS versions may use different hdmi_cvt syntax; verify applicability before deploying on a specific system.
Power supply must deliver at least 3000 mA; insufficient supply can cause start-up failure or permanent damage – size the power source accordingly.
Long-term storage in high temperature/humidity environments can damage the display; store only within the stated temperature limits.
PWM backlight adjustment requires rotating a 10K resistor by 180°; this is a physical board modification and should be done only after consulting the manufacturer.
Disabling the backlight requires replacing the 82K resistor with a 68K resistor – also a physical modification requiring skilled execution.
Exact pin assignments for the speaker header (left/right channel) are shown as a diagram in the original document; without the figure the assignment remains uncertain.
Max current output of the USB host ports is 1 A; when connecting external devices, ensure total load stays below this limit.
