Description
This module has another name: Gert-VGA adapter, or passive VGA adapter 666 Raspberry Pi B+
The Raspberry Pi has an port to connect the monitor. If your monitor only has VGA, then you must use an adapter to connect your monitor. Since the D/A converter adapter is expensive and not quite suitable for the specific environment used by the Raspberry Pi, we have adopted this suitable Raspberry Pi. solution.
This VGA666 switching device cannot support the Raspberry Pi Type A and Type B boards because the number of GPIO pins does not match.
The current Raspberry Pi B+, Raspberry Pi 2, B, and Raspberry Pi 3 have 40 GPIO pins that can use this module.
With this module, a locally connected VGA monitor can be implemented, which also means that you can use it as an auxiliary monitor next to the . Unlike composite video, the DPI interface can operate independently of the interface.
Dual-screen software is still in the development phase and will soon be officially compatible.
Running two screens at maximum resolution consumes SDRAM bandwidth and has yet to be tested. (And there is a problem: as the motherboard uses most of the GPIO pins, it means that the specific functions of the GPIO can not be used, because it is occupied.)
