Simultaneous Flatpanel / CRT Display
The 65540/45 provides simultaneous display operation with Multi-Sync variable frequency or PS/2
fixed frequency CRT monitors and single panel-single drive LCDs (LCD-SS), dual panel-single drive
LCDs (LCD-DS), dual panel-dual drive LCDs (LCD-DD) and plasma and EL panels (which contains
single panel-single drive interfaces). Single drive panels sequence data in the same manner as CRTs
so the 65540/45 provides simultaneous display with CRTs and LCD-SS, LCD-DS, plasma or EL
panels by driving the panels with CRT timing. No external hardware is required. In contrast, LCD-DD
panels require video data alternating between separate locations in the memory. In addition, a dualdrive panel requires data from both locations simultaneously. The 65540/45 also provides
simultaneous display with LCD-DD and CRT monitors without using external VRAMs.
The internal VRAM frame buffers offer significant advantages relative to competitors' DRAM frame
buffers. A DRAM frame accelerator requires that the flatpanel is refreshed at double of the CRTs
vertical refresh rate. Therefore, an expensive 6.3 MHz LCD (with 120 Hz panel vertical refresh rate) is
required for simultaneous display with 60 Hz CRT monitors when a DRAM frame buffer is used. Due
to its higher bandwidth relative to DRAMS, a VRAM frame buffer can refresh both the flatpanel and
CRT at the same vertical refresh rate. Therefore, inexpensive 3 MHz and 6 MHz LCDs (in addition to
6.3 MHz LCDs) can be used for simultaneous display with 60 Hz and 72 Hz CRT monitors when a
VRAM frame buffer is used.

7SPECIAL PERIPHERALS,CONFIGURATION,FUNCTIONS
7.1 Onboard BIAS Power generation
(only on the MSMV104L)
On the MSMV104L (low cost) board is no BIAS generator implemented.
IMPORTANT:
The onboard voltage generation must be adjusted and measured before the
LCD panel is connected, otherwise the display may be destroyed.
Follow these steps:
7.1.1 VEE Generation
If there is an external 12V power supply at the PC/104 BUS PIN B9, switch the Jumpers J25 and J26
to 2-3. With 12V at the VEE generator the stability of the VEE range is improved. VEE Range -35V to
+35V.
7.1.2 Selection of the polarity VEE
Some displays use positive, other use negative BIAS voltages. Refer to the datasheet of the flatpanel
in order to find out the correct polarity. With the polarity jumper J6 (see Jumper) the definition is
made.
7.1.3 Adjustment of the voltage
The voltage may be varied between 35V and 15V with the selected polarity.
The current depends on the input voltage and the load. Check the following diagrams:

8POSSIBLE FAILURES
8.1 General LCD Failures
Refer to the Flatpanel Manual by DIGITAL-LOGIC AG.
1. Check the LCD-BIOS. You have a special BIOS for every LCD.
2. Check the cable to the LCD.
3. Check the Jumper.
4. Check the power supply.
8.2 The LCD is not stable
TrytoplacearesistorattheVEEtotheGND.
This occurs to LCDs which do not consume enough current. Try to raise the resistor values as much
as possible.
