VGA Adapter Board For Raspberry Pi 3B 2B B+ A+
VGA Adapter Board For Raspberry Pi 3B 2B B+ A+
Product features
Product features
Direct VGA Display Connection: Converts the Raspberry Pi GPIO parallel display interface (DPI) to a standard 15-pin female VGA output, allowing easy connection to legacy VGA monitors and projectors.
Dual Display Capability: Enables dual-monitor setups on supported Raspberry Pi models by driving a VGA display through DPI alongside a primary HDMI connection.
Native RGB Colors: Supports up to 18-bit RGB color depth (262,144 colors) via parallel connection without requiring external video conversion hardware or external power supplies.
High-Resolution Support: Capable of outputting clear, high-resolution video signals up to 1080p ($1920 \times 1080$) at 60Hz depending on model bandwidth and config.txt settings.
Direct GPIO Header Mount: Plugs cleanly onto the 40-pin GPIO header of Raspberry Pi 3B, 2B, B+, and A+ models for a compact, low-profile footprint.
Materials and care
Materials and care
PCB Composition: Manufactured on a rigid, high-grade FR4 fiberglass circuit board designed for durable workbench and prototyping use.
Pin Alignment Care: Ensure all 40 female GPIO header pins are properly aligned with the Raspberry Pi pins prior to pressing down to prevent pin bending.
Static Handling Precautions: Standard electrostatic sensitive device (ESD). Hold the adapter by its outer fiberglass edges during installation and avoid touching exposed traces.
Environmental Limits: Operating temperature range is 0^C to 50^C. Protect from liquids, high humidity, and conductive metallic debris while powered.
Merchandising tips
Merchandising tips
Cost-Effective Monitor Reuse: Market directly to students, makers, and retro-gaming builders looking to repurpose affordable or spare legacy VGA monitors without buying expensive active converters.
Dual-Monitor Setup Pitch: Highlight its capability to create dual-screen Linux workstations or dedicated status dashboards alongside an HDMI screen.
Recommended Cross-Sell Add-ons: Pair with Male-to-Male VGA Cables, Raspberry Pi Mainboards (3B/2B/B+), and Brass Standoff Hardware Kits for mounting stability.
Easy Configuration Guide: Note in product documentation that setup requires simple configuration changes to the config.txt file to enable DPI display mode.
