FPD-Link

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Flat Panel Display Link (FPD-Link) is a high-speed interface connecting the output of a video card in a laptop computer to the display panel. Most modern laptops with higher resolutions use this interface, the older and/or lower resolution ones use a TTL interface.

FPD-Link uses LVDS. There is another display interface which uses LVDS: OpenLDI. it is very similar to FPD-Link, but allows longer cable lengths, and is a rarely used method to connect external display panels to computers. Modern stand-alone LCD display panels for desktop computers use a completely different interface such as DVI.
