UPDATE 3/14/03: Received the next batch and have 2 controllers left over, first come first serve. Email lcdcontroller@partyinthecity.com

UPDATE 2/25/03: Still have one for sale and pics and specs have been posted at http://www.partyinthecity.com/lcdcontroller. If I get more response than quantity, I may require a small prepayment ($20) and paypal will be preferred. I'll let everyone know though in a couple days.

I have 6 of these for sale right now, maybe more later:

HYPERION Simplicity Series standalone SVGA analog video to LCD digital controllers

- Display modes of 800x600, 640x480, 640x400, 640x350 with 8bit color resolution.
- Circuit board size 5" x 4.7" x 0.75", which can fit easily behind a 6.4" or larger TFT display.
- Power requirements are only 12 Vdc at a current draw of less than 2 amps, which inncludes the display and inverter power consumption as well.
- Onboard connectors include VGA port, power input, header for power for backlight inverter, and header for LCD interface.
- Adjustable features include: Sync, horizontal, vertical, black level, contrast, and brightness.
- Ability to switch between 5v and 3.3v power output for LCD interface.
- Ability for controlling brightness, contrast, AND inverter brightness remotely.
- Supplies both 12v and 5v for inverter power.

I have the spec sheet with complete pinouts of every connector onboard which will be provided upon purchase of the controller. The LCD interface is a dual row of 40 pins total (exactly like IDE interface, so if you need a custom cable you can use one side of an IDE cable and connect whatever goes to your LCD on the other side.) I will take pics soon.

These boards will not be for sale until next week sometime, BUT you can go ahead and claim one if you want. To do this, just email lcdcontroller@partyinthecity.com with your info (name, address, phone number) and I will get back to you as soon as I have them for sale. I don't require a prepayment, but you should be able to pay within a week of when they go for sale.. Please email me, and don't try to claim by replying to this thread as I'm going to post on multiple messageboards and can't keep track of all the threads.

Also, if you need an inverter for your LCD, I have some NEC 65PWB31 inverters:

- Dual lamp driver (meaning it can power two backlights, useful for the bright LCDs with two backlights).
- 5 Vdc operation with a 1 amp current draw.
- Open lamp voltage of 1500Vrms (meaning when no lamps are connected, the inverter outputs 1500 volts).
- Luminance control range 20%-100% and control voltage from 1.5v - 1.9v.
- Only 10.5cm x 3cm x 1cm

These will be 10 dollars each, and can be shipped seperately or included with your controller purchase. I have these for sale right now, so if interested email me at lcdcontroller@partyinthecity.com.

If you have any questions, feel free to drop me an email at lcdcontroller@partyinthecity.com

Thanks,
Jason

Should that be 18bit?

mikeinsanmarcos · 02-24-2003, 09:54 PM

probably 8 bit per color?

infrared · 02-24-2003, 10:07 PM

Yeah sorry 8 bit per color so 24 bit total..

I'd like to reserve one controller and one inverter.

Thanks,

Do you have a link to the manufacturer's site? (If they have one)

infrared · 02-25-2003, 11:06 AM

Hey,

No, they went out of business (Fraker Associates). However, I do have the spec sheet and I just took pics that I will be putting up shortly..
