Adapter boards to streamline capacitive touchscreen prototyping & development
Press Release - Elgin, IL | September 15th, 2025
Introducing our new NHD-CTP-USB-ADAPTER, a versatile I2C-to-USB adapter board designed exclusively for use with Newhaven Display's capacitive touchscreen displays. Engineered to simplify prototyping and development, this adapter makes integrating capacitive touch technology into your project fast, intuitive, and highly adaptable. Designed for seamless compatibility with a wide range of capacitive TFT displays, this single board is available in 3 different models, each supporting a different resolution: 640×480, 800×480, and 1024×600—all powered by the FT5426G or FT5536U touch controller.
This plug-and-play evaluation board offers an efficient path from concept to prototype, eliminating complex wiring and setup. The board features a Molex connector for the capacitive touch panel FFC, an on/off switch, LED power indicator, and a USB Micro-B connector to supply 5V power as a USB-HID device. Simply connect, power up, and start developing immediately.
Ideal for Raspberry Pi projects, Windows or Windows Embedded PCs, and touchscreen HMIs running Linux or other embedded systems, this adapter makes integration a breeze. The built-in mounting holes enable quick and secure installation into your enclosure, further streamlining development workflows. With its broad compatibility and ready-to-use design, the adapter board empowers engineers, designers, and developers to bring their touchscreen-based applications to life—faster than ever before.
