LED backlit Hydis UXGAs into the T4x: Who is going to do it?

#1 Post by DRobinson » Wed Dec 04, 2013 12:44 am

Who is going to become the master of putting the LED backlit Hydis UXGAs into the T4x machines? I thought I read that RBS had done one but was not inclined to doing as a regular thing. It is going to have to happen with the t50 board coming. No one is going to want to stay with an old CFFL with their shiny new i7 in the machine. Or, who is going to write the "how-to" for others to follow?

For LED-UXGA to work in a T43/p it needs a different inverter-cum-LED-power-plant.
The current T43/p inverter only works on brightness levels 5,6,7.
If you go lower, it switches the backlight off.
That's the reason why I stopped doing them on a T43/p.

If demand is there, I'm sure I can come up with an alternative for the T50!

I have one of these Hydis LCDs on my shelf, but was too late to have the inverter+cable modified by RBS for my T60/61 Frankenpad.
Maybe I can find use for it in a T50?
