Bottom left is RGB computer input.
Mid right is TTL LCD out.
Bottom right is keypad. Possibly on screen display.
Top right some other connectors no idea what.
Check chip numbers on google might help what they do.
I would guess its an LCD controller.

Top right looks like power in for the controller (4 pin) and the 2 pin connector looks to be power for the backlight invertor.

Thanks for the info, when it arrives, I will take a closer look at the chip numbers and google it.

Hi all,
I love coming back to posts after a while of neglect and seeing how well they have progressed. You all seem to be leaving the DIY realm and making professional passing projects too! 🙂
In the next few months, after I save up the cash, I'm going to finally build my own entertainment unit (ie. my diy projector-pc setup). Just wondering though, has anyone using this method (laptop panel/controll) posted up their results with pics? And whats the quality like compared to a retail projector?
Any panel-controller combination recomendations? Any better (performance and price wise) routes?
I want a target resolution of around 1024x768 w/ 32-bit colour.
I'll be asking more technical questions as time progresses.
Thanks alot all for providing what you have.

A/D controller
here is another one from ebay
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=3698&item=2087736398
this seems clearly an lcd controller, specs are found when following the link further down the screen.....
still about 50 pct of the sales price.

I read through some of this thread, like 10 pages but still didn't figure out if some one had put together a cheap pc to laptop screen converter, and how much did it cost
Two new LCD screens to try out!
I'm waiting for my shipment of 2 new screens to try on my controller. I have a 12 inch LG LVDS screen coming as well as a Hitachi 14.1 LVDS . Finally I'll get to see the differance between a low grade TTL panel and a mid range LVDS.
I'm expecting good things! 😉

LVDS for cheap
Look in the SBC-675 thread.
I have orderd a few of this Aaeon Boards.
They have a flat panel connector on board.
Nexcom, Aaeon, Jumptec , Advantech.
All the same, expensive industrial boards if you get them "new"
I'm developing with such boards as "basis" for
our company. So , I knew the prices.
Also for the addons.
As i see that i can get a cheap Aaeon fullsize board in the "Pentium Class" boards on Ebay i was so happy that i odered direct a few. (unfortunately a few too much).
Forget to route some wires yourself.
It's a differntial signal transmission which transmitts
Pixel Data from Mhz to Gigabits. (hard stuff)
You cannot wheaponed with a soldering iron only,
do such a stuff without getting EMV EMI problems in your
neighboor hood. You need a 4 layer pcb as quoted in the
design notes of this chips (Texas, National, Thine)
If you are a pcb designer with high speed design knowledge
do it. When not , forget about it to do it yourself.
But you can add easilly sound with some wires
at the ISA slot. That's not a problem.
Think about what is easier and cheaper to do.
Perharps you find some ready to fit LVDS transmitter
which you have only to fit in cheap in such a board.
Look for TDMS, LVDS Transmitter modules.
Most XGA displays from 13.3" up have the LVDS receivers included. So you need only the transmitter module.
Pay attention that the module can handle 18 and/or 24 bit colors.
If you have a 14 or 20 pin connector you have an LVDS display.
14 pin = 18 bit (262k colors)
20 pin = 18 / 24 bit (262k or 16.7 Mio colors)

NEWBIE QUESTION???
I have seen pci cards that can send vga signal to LCD directly
The capacity of these cards are low resolution(2megs pci), but coupled with a dvd card would it be a good alternative to 200$ controller?
Thanks for your help!!

What do you think this controller is for a monitor or a laptop panel?
nec controller
Any info about its original purpose would help.

probably no good for a PJ but.....
Good site with some interesting info. As mentioned ...probably/for sure no good for a PJ but for other uses looks like a winner.

Re: How about this LCD panel for $119
Has anyone used one of these yet?
I'm tempted to get one, but I'm wondering how easy they rip apart, etc...

For the cost involved I'd say buy one,( if you are carefull) the worst is it won't work for what you want..and you have a tiny little monitor thats looking for something to do.....Ebay...

What monitors have people taken apart?
Office Depot has a 15" SVA LCD for $197 after $30 rebate and I can order a Samsung 150N for a little more.
I'll probably get the Samsung if I knew it could be taken apart succesfully.

From what I'v read hear the NEC1545v and the I-O DATA A15V.
It sound's like the I-O DATA is easyer or a little safer to take apart...

no monitors were harmed in the making of this.....
I use lap top LCD's so don't keep up on current monitor stats.

NEC 1555V is not usable (for me)
Hello all,
I just finished disassembling a NEC LCD1555VBK. I think the panel bears a HannStar logo and the boards attached to the LCD are conected via a tiny ribbon cable. I will post pictures if anyone is interested.
