Arbor 43C
Arbor 43C is an expansion board for any Overo COM with 4.3” Newhaven Capacitive multi-touch screen, Ethernet, USB, and audio.
IMPORTANT: This version of the Arbor Board is deprecated because it mates only with Overo COMs using the discontinued AVX connectors, manufactured before January 2020.
Overo COMs manufactured since January 2020 use Panasonic connectors. If interested in a version of the Arbor with a Panasonic connector, contact us.

The connector for Newhaven Capacitive Multi-Touch Screens used on this board is ideal for providing a user interface for handheld devices needing multi-touch graphical input with audio for industrial, medical, and automation systems.
