.


I do not want to use a VGA cable, but rather, build it as an embedded system


I wondered if you could help me. understand if I can connect the LCD output of the board to the LVDS input of the LCD.


In general, I'm willing to pay for work on this design



thanks very much! I really appreciate any help. I'm totally new to this and any help is blessed

I have one of those with the 4.3" display. Planning also to connect a larger screen, (10"/11" in my case.) Will take a look over the weekend and report back. (Just got power back after the last snow storm in the NE USA.)

It is not possible to connect it directly to an LVDS input of the LCD. You will need to have an adapter in between which converts the LV-TTL RGB signals to LVDS.

Something else you need to take care abourt is the pixel clock. I think that the SAM9G45 is limited to about 50 MHz. (You may want to verify this)

This LCD module needs a pixel clock between 50-80 MHz, so you are really at a border.

Someone needs to write a driver. The Atmel Linux LCD driver is fixed to 480 x 272
