Description
DVI Breakout Board - For HDMI Source Devices - Adafruit 4984
This breakout board has no active components on it. It's just a connector you can plug an HDMI/DVI cable into and 220-ohm series resistors. There's a spot for an I2C EEPROM and some resistors, but those are for advanced folks who may want to create a 'sink' device with an EDID. We don't place those parts on this breakout, since this is intended to be a 'source' only!
By using some fun 'abuse' of overclocking and the RP2040's PIO system a low-cost microcontroller can have great-looking video output. Great for making demos, or just noodling around with digital video generation.
Wire it up to the bottom pins of your Pico board with the following:
- GP12 to D0+
- GP13 to D0-
- GP14 to CK+
- GP15 to CK-
- GP16 to D2+
- GP17 to D2-
- GP18 to D1+
- GP19 to D1-
And tie all the grounds together to one ground pin. Then you can download this super fun example that will give you bouncy Eben heads!
