4 channel LVDS (using pins of the second DVI link)
(for cheap direct tft-lcd attachment)
My notes say "Keep in mind that the DVI connection standard only specs
out to 8-bits. HDMI extends this capability". Is that correct? Is
DVI limited to 8 bits/color? How many bits/color does HDMI allow?
I wanted to send a signal with more than 8 bit resolution only via
analog, not digital (because today digital equipment does not count with
more than 8 bit), however the DVI should allow more than 8 bit via
dual-link (I'm not sure how much is that standard, but it was mentioned
on the webpage i've recently read - url is somewhere here in the list).
Yes DVI (digital) will handle more than 8 bits by using two channels one
for the high order byte and one for the low order byte. However, will
it do this and handle high resolution at the same time? IIUC, it can
run the channels at more than 165 MBPS if it is using both channels.
Will read more of the standard when I have time.
