gen4
Display Module Series
Description
The gen4 2.8” Diablo16 Integrated Display Module is
part of the latest gen4 series of modules Designed
and Manufactured by 4D Systems.
The gen4 series was designed specifically for ease of
integration and use, with careful consideration for
space requirements and functionality.
This specific gen4 module features a 2.8” colour TFT
LCD display, with optional resistive touch. It is
powered by the feature-rich 4D Systems Diablo16
Graphics Processor, which offers an array of
functionality and options for any Designer /
Integrator / User.
The Diablo16 processor features include 16
customisable GPIO, capable of PWM, Serial, I2C, SPI,
Pulse Out, Quadrature Input, and Analog Input.
The 2.8” Diablo16 Integrated Display Module features
a TFT LCD Display, is capable of Touch Detection,
microSD
memory
Storage,
GPIO
and
Communications, along with multiple millisecond
resolution timers, and Audio Generation.
The gen4 series is 100%
Workshop4 IDE and its 4
environments, providing the
options for programming
system.
compatible with the

(DT): 87.3 x 52.1 x 7.3mm.
•
Weighing: ~30 g (D), ~40 g (D-CLB), ~36 g (DT)
•
4x mounting tabs with 3.2mm holes for mechanical
mounting using M3 screws.
•
RoHS and REACH compliant.
•
CE Compliant – please ask for CE declarations from
our Support Team.
Anything designed to run on other 4D Systems
display modules featuring Picaso or Diablo16 Graphic
Processors can be run on this gen4 Integrated Display
Module, with little or no required modifications.
Please contact 4D Systems Support Team for
assistance if migrating from a previous model.
The gen4 series of Integrated Display Modules
features a 30 pin ZIF socket, designed for a 30 pin FPC
cable, for easy and simple connection to an
application or mother board, or for connecting to
accessory boards for a range of functionality
advancements.
The gen4 series of modules has been designed to
minimise the impact of display related circuitry, and
provide a platform suitable for integration into a
product. Application boards can sit flush on the back
of the gen4 if required, as the display related
electronics sit inside the plastic mounting base,
leaving the application board surface clear for User
circuitry.
