Flat Panel Display Interface
The flat panel display interface (FPDI) consists of a 31-pin DB9 connector
linked to the PPI port and frame sync signals of the processor. For a gen-
eral overview of the display interface connections, see Figure 2-1 on
page 2-4. For more detailed information, see the “A-V EZ-Extender Sche-
matic” on page B-1.
A timing and functional analysis is required to determine if a specific LCD
module can connect to the Blackfin A-V EZ-Extender. An example of a
display that can connect to the extender is the NEC NL6448BC20-08 dis-
play (
http://www.ee.nec.de/).
L
The power for the backlight feature of the LCD module must be
provided by the customer (use the backlight inverter recommended
by the manufacturer). It is also necessary to purchase a cable to
connect the A-V EZ-Extender to the display. An example of such a
cable is FDC31/xxxxAFF03 from Axon Cable
(
http://www.axon-cable.com, part number FDC31/xxxxAFF03).
Different length cables are available.
Before using the interface, follow the steps in “A-V EZ-Extender Setup”
on page 1-1.
