Okay, so I have an LCD (Samsung LT141X7-124) that accepts a 3.3 volt low voltage differential signal. It has three pairs of differential data inputs (negative and positive make a pair), and a negative/positive clock input. I have a controller board for it (DiCON LCD1280FI) which features a Genesis GM5020 LVDS transmitter chip.
This would be well and good, except that I'd like to ditch the controller board because I plan on using the LVDS transmitter on my ATi Mobility Radeon M11 (Radeon 9700). I'm just not sure whether I can use the M11's LVDS because I don't completely understand the whole LVDS scheme. The datasheet for the M11 isn't clear as to what LVDS transmitter is used, only that it's "230 MHz."
Am I overly concerned? Do LVDS transmitters have broad compatibility with any LCD with 3.3 volt LVDS signalling, or are they make and model specific?
