I wish to connect a few different LCDs to the UDOO quad board. I need the following. LVDS connector part# and pinout. method for setting custom timing in the UDOO board.
Hi there @keith morton and welcome in the forum. The answer is: the documentation is your friend! http://www.udoo.org/docs/Hardware_&_Accessories/UDOO_LVDS_Panels.html
The UDOO quad has a 24 pin touchscreen connector. However on page 8 of this document there is a pinout for the display, but it has 40 pins. http://udoo.org/download/files/datasheets/datasheet7.pdf I am not sure where else to look. Any suggestions @Andrea Rovai?
You can find the pinout of the LVDS connector in the schematics file Quad/Dual that you can download from the other resources page http://www.udoo.org/other-resources/
waltervl got it right. Here is a direct link to the UDOO Quad schematic. Page 11 has the LVDS connector. http://udoo.org/download/files/schematics/UDOO_REV_D_schematics.pdf
Hi, regarding the UDOO Quad 7" LCD Touch panel. ( http://shop.udoo.org/other/video-kit-7-touch-for-quaddual.html?___from_store=other&popup=no ) Request #1 : could I have the schematics of the " LCD BOARD ADAPTER " this info is NOT inside the LCD datasheet ( http://udoo.org/download/files/datasheets/datasheet7.pdf ) Sillkscreen on the PCB of this " LCD BOARD ADAPTER ", it is labelled "CSA02REVC BD REVC" Request #2: could I have the Manufacturer Part number MPN of the connector "CN1" on this LCD BOARD ADAPTER lablled "CSA02REVC" ? I believe this LVDS connector is the same as the one on UDOO Quad SBC connector "CN13" correct ? on the UDOO Quad schematic page 11 ( http://udoo.org/download/files/schematics/UDOO_REV_D_schematics.pdf ) there is NO mention of the MPN of this CN13 connector.
yes i see the pinout of the connector, but there is no part#, I want to buy the mating connector. also how do I change the panel timing parameters on the udoo board as each LCD has different timing.
Hi there @TIOH, I've just emailed SECO, as soon as I know the answer I'll share it. @keith morton: I'm not sure I get your question, have you given a look to the documentation? http://www.udoo.org/docs/Hardware_&_Accessories/UDOO_LVDS_Panels.html
Hi Andrea, Regarding my Request #1, Yes I have read the documentations as in http://www.udoo.org/docs/Hardware_&_Accessories/UDOO_LVDS_Panels.html but there is no information about the schematics of the " LCD BOARD ADAPTER " the LCD BOARD ADAPTER is a PCB stick at the back of the LCD panel it has a white PCB Sillkscreen labelled "CSA02REVC BD REVC" This LCD BOARD ADAPTER PCB assembly information is not found in the LCD datasheet ( http://udoo.org/download/files/datasheets/datasheet7.pdf ) if you have a piece of this 7" LCD panel, just flip over, you will see this PCB, and you will find the CN1 connector soldered on this PCB so that you can connect the Cable harness from the LCD to the UDOO main board. I believe this LCD BOARD ADAPTED label "CSA02REVC BD REVC" is NOT made by the LCD panel manufacturer right ? ( that is why it is not in the LCD datasheet ) where can I find the schemtics of this LCD BOARD ADAPTER ?
I do no think the LVDS interface ("CSA02REVC") schematics are public. Why do you need the schematics for this? If you want to connect a different display you have the pinout for the LVDS connector, what else do you need?
On that LVDS interface board CSA02REVC, there is a power circuit with power inductor ( I guess is the LED backlight driver ) and also this chip http://sg.rs-online.com/web/p/lvds-receivers/0460673/ so, I guess some conversion circuit is needed to convert the main board LVDS signal in order the link-up to a typical LCD panel specification ? hope that they will open the LVDS interface board design.
I suppose that the interface board is designed by the panel manufacturer and covered by NDA. I suggest you to read the iMX6 manual (IMX6DQRM.pdf), chapter 39. With those information and an EE you should be able to interface an LCD display to the board.
A lot of LCD panels have a parallel interface and the LVDS has be converted back to parallel hence that's part of the circuitry. For example the UDOO 7" LVDS panel has a parallel 18bit RGB interface. It would have been ideal if the UDOO imx6 boards had exposed the LCD parallel pins as this would have allowed for easier integration with a huge number of cheap LCD panels that support a parallel interface. The remaining circuitry is mainly required for the touch panel which can either be i2c or spi and backlight support.
I assume the LVDS interface board was designed by the UDOO team because the connector is unique to the UDOO. I would like some more details as well so I can learn more about what is required when buying a non UDOO display. What kind of LVDS interface is required. The chip on the board is DS90CF364AMTD
