FEZ portal, bigger and brighter display

SITCore

Hi

Does anyone know which display at least 5 inches big with brightness higher than 600 is compatible with FEZ portal ?

Thanks

The board already has a display. What are you trying to do?

customer requires at least 5 inches and brightness > 600
It should be a displal on an EV Charging station ….

A custom circuit can utilize one of our SoMs to add a suitable display. The cost should be reasonable because the complex work is already done inside the SoM.

You can use the Dev board with 7” display to start your software development. Sand if you want, we can also help with the software.

This requires a direct discussion with our team.

Software is relatively easy .. to read some values over restAPI and to display them .. ideally over USB networking, but it seems to be not possible so we are left with wired ethernet option …

HW is where we lack any experties :slight_smile:

As I wrote at least 5 inch and brightness at least 600 is required.

Networking is available natively. Using USB on an embedded system just complicates things.

Email support and chat with our engineers. We can design any hardware you need and then code it using .net.

Using any other display with the SITCore processors is very easy if the interface to the LCD is parallel 24 bit. The SITCore drivers use a 565 interface so the lower bits of the 8 bit per RGB input is tied low. You can also use the LVDS interface LCD’s from the likes of Newhaven DIsplay which offer 800-1000 nits brightness. Lovely in sunlight but you need to convert the CPU output from RGB to LVDS with an encoder. Not difficult, just more work. I use the 7.0” LVDS displays with 1024x600 resolution and 935 NITS. Beautiful displays. A custom design from GHI would be easier to intergrate with whatever enclosure you are going to use. If you use the 800x480 resolution displays, you can develop with the 7” dev kit and later switch to the custom 5” display and only need to change the timing. All the graphics will work out of the box. Sounds like an interesting project. I miss working on them these days.

thanks a lot I’ll investigate :slight_smile:
