[Gumstix-users] Palo35/Summit Hybrid

[amanisdude <man...@gm...>]

Hi all.  Like 95% of people who join forums and mailing lists on this topic,
I'm a relative newb when it comes to both Gumstix and electronics, so please
be patient with me.

As the post subject suggests, I am attempting to make a custom hybridized
version of the Palo35 and Summit expansion boards for the Overo platform.

This is pretty straight forward, as the board schematics are nearly
identical, except in one regard: the display output.  On the board I am
attempting to build, the devices would have BOTH a touchscreen connection
for the default LG 3.5" display and an HDMI output (for cloned display
purposes).

My newblet question is that would it be possible to just split the L_xxxx
pin outputs from the Gumstix connector to each individual video display
subsystem (the 74AC164245 chips for the touchscreen display and TFP100 IC
for the HDMI output) as shown in the Palo35 and Summit schematics,
respectively, or would this result in some "bad juju"?

I have a feeling that getting two display output formats from Gumstix, even
if identical, would not be so simple, but please enlighten me if I am
right/wrong.  Thanks in advance for your patience!
