Frankenstein Opus
Hi,

I have an Opus with the broken display…
Then, I have a new 6" display…
Well… I ask myself: can I put the 6" in the Opus mainboard?

The first answer was: no! the connectors are differents. 5" display has 33 pins, while 6" displays has 39, and the pin density is double than 5".

But, I say myself, the pixels are the same, both 600x800!
Well, take a look in the datasheet of both displays…

Surprise! The 6 more contacts in the 6" are optional signals, and all the other are replicated in both displays!

Uhmmmm… can I make an adapter between 6" and 5"?

Stay tuned!
