This is ideal for Kiosk, ATM, Gaming, or POS applications where connecting to flexible open frame LVDS display may have unique advantages. Also, OEMs that previously used ADD2 cards in a desktop PCIex16 slot to provide an internal LVDS connection can no longer do so as that feature is no longer supported on the new Intel® Q67/Q57 desktop chipsets supporting the Intel® Core™ i7/i5/i3 processors. High-end medical imaging devices, x-ray or ultrasound machines, manufacturing equipment, or customer facing display machines with an operator often require a small display console for the operator, a small touch-screen for the machine inputs, or small machine status display, where having an onboard LVDS connection on the motherboard to drive that small display is an ideal solution....
