Thanks so much for this post. One question: why does your chart list the monitor VCC (pins 22-24 of the 30 pin connector) as 12V, when the label on the logic board connector shows they are 3.3V?
I'm attempting a similar mod myself. :)
Update from the workbench:
Not sure why, but tracking down a datasheet or "specification document" for the LG-Phillips LM201W01(ST)(B2) LCD monitor has been much more challenging than I would have thought (the datasheet appears to be available for download from this site, but there's a complex...
Thanks for such a great post. I've been working on a similar project, adapting a 20" iMac G5 iSIght to be used as an external HDMI monitor. But my information about the pinout differs from yours, which is interesting. When I peel back the protective shield around the connector opposite the...
A friend has asked if I can turn his 20" iMac G5 iSight (A1145) into an external monitor that he can use with his Apple laptop via HDMI (sorry, don't know the laptop model, but luckily that's not particularly relevant to this project). Most of the info out there about projects like this one...
Thanks for the response! Yes I've seen ersterhernd's pinout, but for some reason that doesn't match the pinout on my monitor (which is also a LM201W01-STB2). For starters, the colors are different on mine starting with pin 19. But more importantly, mine appears to have an extra wire (everything...
This is great work, and I'd be interested in knowing if your board design has been tested. But there's one moment that gives me pause: the LCD pinout you attached looks nothing like the actual pinout from my 20" G5 iSight LCD (A1145). May I ask what the source of this pinout schematic is? I've...
First off, as a new user, I want to say thank you for logging all your projects so thoroughly. This site is such a valuable resource for those of us attempting apple mods.
I'm in the process of adapting a 20" iMac G5 iSight (A1145) to be used as an external monitor (via HDMI). On this forum and...
