LVDS

Description

SBCX provides two LVDS interfaces, LVDS0 and LVDS1.

• J8 is a Hirose (cod. DF13A-20DP-1.25V) double row 1.25mm pitch miniature crimping connector
• J9 is a Hirose (cod. DF13A-20DP-1.25V) double row 1.25mm pitch miniature crimping connector

Device mapping

• LVDS0 is mapped to /dev/fb0 device in Linux
• LVDS1 is mapped to the corresponding device driver in Linux, depending on the ldb peripheral configuration in the device tree. The default value is disabled but can be mapped to /dev/fb2 (second and independent LCD panel) or can be the second LVDs channel for a dual-channel LCD panel configuration (like a 1920x1080 DUAL LVDS channel LCD panel)

Power sequence

Most of the LCD panels have many supplies and need a specific timing to power the rails and start the signals.

The Evaluation Kit provides GPIO controlled power rails that can be leveraged both at bootloader and kernel level to meet any specifications.

The following sections describe the available rails:

3V3_LCD

The most common voltage to supply the LCD panel internal logic:

• rail 3V3_LCD0 is enabled by GPIO4_IO29
• rail 3V3_LCD1 is enabled by GPIO4_IO30

5V_LCD

The most common voltage to supply the LCD panel backlight:

• rail 5V_LCD0 is enabled by GPIO5_IO5
• rail 5V_LCD1 is enabled by GPIO1_IO01

Device usage

The associated framebuffer device is accessed in Linux through the standard graphic access.
