Xenarc 700 TSV and PCB board. Can they be separated?

[justintime]

I'm getting my flame suit on. Ok it's on now.

Looked, but could not find this. Really, I did search dammit!

Can the PCB from the Xenarc 700TSV be separated from the LCD? I'm plannong to take it out from the housing, but I would need to tilt back the PCB about 30 degress to make it fit in the opening. (PCB is taller than the LCD)

After I get a definite reply I will post it on the Xenarc FAQ thread :P

Thanks!

Let me be the 1st to flame you - sorry but i have to....

of course you can separate the main controller fromt he xenarc. loads of people have done it. The FFC cable is 6 inches long. Jusr be very careful with the clips on the cable as the side tabs break off making it dificult but no impossible to secure the cable and be very careful handling the board as they are very sensitive.

There's probably enough slack in the ribbon cable to tilt it 10 - 15 deg, maybe not enough for 30 deg. That's what I had to do to fit mine in the dash beside the a/c controls.

you can get the board horizontal. I have one in bits on my desk.

Check digitalww's site:

This module is basically the Xenarc setup. The VGA controller, the inverter, and the touch controller all are removable. Althought, it would probably be best to leave the touch controller and the inverter with the display panel and just move the VGA controller.

I remember there was a writeup on how to disassemble the Xenarc and remove components out of the 'shell'. Can't find it.

Any pointers please? I don't want to open this thing before getting an idea of what's involved... especially if there are any delicate parts that I need to be careful with.
