How to Design a Custom SBC That Supports Multiple Displays Interfaces and Sizes
In the world of embedded hardware, one thing is certain: display requirements vary a lot. Some products need a 4” screen, others use 7” or even 10.1”. The interfaces could also differ: RGB, LVDS, or MIPI-DSI. So how can we design a custom single board computer (SBC) that can support multiple display types — without changing the main hardware? This post shares some practical design strategies we use in real-world projects involving Rockchip-based Android/Linux SBCs.
