− | The following display outputs are supported on the board:
| |
− | * Composite video (NTSC and PAL) via an RCA plug. (the yellow plug on your tv)
| |
− | * HDMI 1.3a standard output.
| |
− | * Display Serial Interface (DSI) - via unpopulated 15-way flat flex connector.
| |
− | | |
− | These interfaces allow the use of a broad range of displays, including:
| |
− | * Televisions (HDMI or composite).
| |
− | * Computer monitors (HDMI/DVI-D cable) (VGA monitors would require either a composite or HDMI to VGA scan converter box).
| |
− | * DLP/Laser Pico Projectors (HDMI/DVI-D cable).
| |
− | * RAW LCD panels (DSI + interfacing hardware)
| |
− | * Composite and HDMI outputs can not be used at the same time (one or the other.)

| |
− | | |
− | The Broadcom BCM2835 only provides HDMI output and composite output. RGB and other signals needed by RGB, S-VIDEO or VGA connectors are however not provided.

− | A couple of options for VGA or component RGB outputs, bridging from either HDMI or the MIPI DSI interface:

− | Alternatively, it may be possible to design an expansion board that plugs into the LCD headers on the R.Pi. Here is something similar for Beagleboard:

− | *The SOC(system on a chip) does not support any kind of analog component video, including VGA, since the SOC is designed for mobile phone use where this would not be a requirement.
| |
− | *Additional componenty would be needed to generate RGB signals. Additional componentry would push the price beyond the $25 target and therefore won't happen.

| |
− | Nokia N900 has 800x480 DCS LCD [http://e-ditionsbyfry.com/Olive/ODE/ECN/default.aspx?href=ECN%2F2009%2F08%2F02&pageno=5&entity=Pc00502&view=entity (afaik its like DSI, but has build in framebuffer)].
| |
− | Replacement screen is about ~$40 (~$50 with 4pin resistive touchscreen).
| |
− | | |
− | Nokia N8 has AMOLED 360x640 pixels DSI LCD.
| |
− | Replacement screen is about ~$35, another ~$25 for Multitouch Synaptics T1021A touchscreen (I2C + interrupt IO, no docs/drivers).

− | The old-style 2-line, 16-character LCD displays can be commonly controlled over UART, thus providing a cheap way to display values for sensors etc.
