FAQ
- What LCDs can I connect to A64-OLinuXino?
- You can connect LCD-OLinuXino-7 and LCD-OLinuXino-10 LCDs, however the A64 chip has no support for resistive touch panels, so the touch screen will not be available. There are 7 and 10 inch LCDs with capacitive touch panels in our product range. To connect an LCD to A64-OLinuXino you need FPC-40-0.5-150 cable.
- The LCD is not working.
- Notice that there is multiplexing between the Ethernet and the LCD. In order to use the LCD you need to keep the Ethernet interface in reset by closing the PHYRST1 jumper (the PTH jumper near the main A64 chip). If that is already performed and the problem still remains maybe additional video configuration might be required – interrupt u-boot and type “olinuxino” to see options for manual video configurations.
- How long this board will be available?
- This board will be available forever
