8bit LVDS driver board to 6 bit LVDS LCD driver

[kudjung]

Hi,

If I have 8 bit LVDS controller board with 4 lane of data and 1 clock line. LCD that I have has 3 lane of data and one clock lane. Can I just skip the last data lane when connecting the driver board to the LCD. From the datasheet of the driver board, the last lane is encoded data for "R6,R7,G6,G7,B6,B7,RESERVED". For the other 3 lane the data of the driver board seem to be the same as waht assign on the LCD.

I have the LCD but don't have the driver board yet. I found this driver board and want to make sure it will work with my lcd before purchase this.

Thanks,
Kudjung

Hi Kudjung, I was thinking the same thing today and found your post after a goggle ! I dis-assembled an old laptop and the display has a 4channel lvds controller which uses a DS90c385. I've also got the controller board from an old lcd with a TSUM56 AK-LF. The pinouts for the latter show that it is dual channel. . . I'm in the process of hooking some cables up to where the ds90c385 used to sit and I'm going to mess around to see what images can be obtained. Let me know how you get on. I'm wondering how 8bit (4ch) data will work on a 6bit (3ch) decoder !!??!! Anyway, good luck !!!!
