Hipgear Screen question... Removing pots...

If you're making a portable you probably need something to watch it on. (Unless you want to guess what's happening in the game, but I wouldn't advise that) Anyway, this forum is your "Hacking a pocket TV/screen" one-stop solution. Share your experiences and knowledge here.

Hipgear Screen question... Removing pots...

Post by bryceowen »

So I finally dismantled my hipgear screen and removed the daughter board (which has the audio amp and brightness/contrast/color adjustment pots). My question is: Do I need to put resistors across the respective adjustments or can I leave it as is? If I do, how do I determine what value resistors to use?

Sorry for sounding so inexperienced, but I've never messed with LCDs before and I'd rather not fry it on my first power up.

Don't want to hijack this thread but my hip pad also burned out maybe one of the chips of pots. Anyway to fix this?
