Re: Can't find a cable to connect an lcd display to my raspberry pi

I've been searching the internet far and wide for a cable with which I could connect an lcd monitor pulled from an old laptop to my raspberry pi. I don't know exactly what the cable names are which made searching for this cable a lot harder than it needs to be. the lcd display has a flat 30pin conn...

Re: LVDS add-on for Raspberry models with 40pin GPIO

here is the datasheet! Pinout is not what I'm interrested in! I need to know the LVDS data mapping. So, please check your display spec for some informaton like the one shown below. R1R0mapping.jpg Your display need to have this mapping as there are no PCBs left which support Y0=..R3,R2 (look at the...

Re: Large TFT (Tablet) Touch Screen compatiblity list

Most screens with a HDMI interface and USB touch will work on a RPi. If you are thinking about interfacing a raw screen then some screens can use the DPI setup. See: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/hardware/raspberrypi/dpi/ (Does not include touch interface). Generally though interfacing a...

Re: Using laptop screen with RPI

I think I have one board with suitable LVDS mapping (Y0=..R1,R0) which I no longer need (due to my new approach based on CM3L). Problem is that I can't compete on price when compared to these low cost controllers on ebay as my board is assembled by hand and I only build a few (not millions of pieces...

Using laptop screen with RPI

Hello, I'd like to connect a LCD screen to a Raspberry Pi. I want to have as few and as small parts as possible, ideally it would only be Raspberry Pi with power supply and a screen, but after quite a lot of searching the only screen I could find that would work with Raspberry Pi without additional ...

Re: DSI as GPIO

This seems interesting.... I am right now talking about the CSI interface I would like to know if we can control the registers directly... ie data in and out... it looks like the CSI is based on the LVDS levels and thus could we hook up an LVDS based IO ADC to carry out the operation. I see 3 data p...
