Second RGB output possible for i.MX6D/Q?

[kirgene]

Hello,

I'm developing custom board based on i.MX6D.

In datasheet "i.MX 6Dual/6Quad Applications Processors for Consumer Products" section "4.11.10.4 IPU Display Interface Signal Mapping" says each IPU has its own LCD RGB interface. As I understand some of pins for second RGB interface (DISP1) are shared with other components and they need to be configured to use as DISP1.

The question is can I use DISP1 and DISP0 in parallel for displaying different FullHD content on two monitors at the same time.

HI Yevhen

yes both DISP1 and DISP0 can be used in parallel

for displaying different content on two monitors at the same time,

one needs to set correctly iomux settings for these signals.

Best regards

igor

Thanks!

I have two additional questions on this subject:

1) Is it possible to have 5 display interfaces working at the same time displaying different content:

HDMI

LVDS (2x)

RGB (2x)

On the other hand i.MX6 datasheet claims that processor support 4 simultaneously working displays at the same time.

What are the real capabilities?

2) And what software configuration should be done to enable second RGB interface?
