Kits combine SBCs with TFT displays
Display Technology (DT) has put together a range of low-cost single board computer "plug and play" kits combining TFT LCDs with SBCs.
The Vampower 11 is a high speed AGP 4x slot card (3.3 and 1.5V) with 16, 32 or 64Mbyte of onboard DDR SGRAM and supports all recognised flat panel interfaces such as TTL, LVDS, TMDS and DVI.
All connections are backward compatible with the previous Vampower 9 and 10.
Panels with single- or dual-channel, 18/24bit, conventional and nonconventional data mapping up to QXGA (2048 x 1536) resolution can be connected via the LVDS interface.
The LVDS connection cable length can be up to 15m depending on resolution and colour intensity required.
The data and the complete power supply for the flat panel and the backlight can be supplied by only one cable.
Therefore, no additional power supply point is needed.
The DVI interface (single channel) with maximum 165MHz clock frequency, supports a resolution of up to UXGA (1600 x 1200) at 60Hz refresh rate and is fully compatible with the DVI and DFP standard.
The Radeon Mobility family has two control channels, with which two displays can be independently controlled in terms of both resolution and refresh rate.
Various combinations are possible, such as two LVDS panels, one LVDS and a DVI panel, or a TTL panel and a CRT monitor.
Based on the ATI Rage Theater 200, the Vampower 11 can be fitted with clip-on circuit board which enables it to display a video signal as an picture-in-picture (PIP) or to execute a capturing.
The clip-on circuit board also provides an additional second CRT and DVI interface.
An extensive range of software and drivers enhance the performance of the Vampower 11.
