All-in-One (AIO) Integration with Thin Mini-ITX Intel Desktop Boards

AIO Integration with Thin Mini-ITX Intel® Desktop Boards – v3.0

Introduction

LVDS flat panel displays are the building block for all modern flat panel monitors. The interface for such displays,

however, is not standardized and, as a consequence, LVDS enabling on Intel Desktop Boards follow a specific

implementation. 14.97

EMC certification is highly dependent on the system chassis. While Intel Desktop Boards with LVDS support are

tested for EMI compliance with LVDS enabled, the actual EMC certification of the board is performed using

standard “off-the-shelf” desktop-style chassis (not an LVDS panel).

System builders who enable LVDS on their product lineup own the support and EMC certification of such systems

for end-users.

Table 1 summarizes the major features of the LVDS flat panel display interface implementation on Intel Desktop

Boards.

Table 1: LVDS Interfaces on Intel Desktop Boards

Panel Connectivity

40-pin header (data, clock, EDID and panel logic power)

Panel Power

Voltage selection jumper for 3.3V, 5V, or 12V panel voltage support

Inverter Connectivity

8-pin header supporting backlight lamp PWM control and inverter power

Inverter Power

Voltage selection jumper for 5V or 12V backlight inverter voltage support

The AIO specification requires all cables to be built into the chassis, including cables and connectors for LVDS,

SATA drives, power, etc.
