Hello,<br />
<br />
I have a TI AM335x starter kit, running Linux, that currently comes with a 4.3&quot; LCD screen. &nbsp;I would like to connect a 5&quot; LCD screen to the kit, can someone tell me first if this is possible? &nbsp;Second, if so what do I need to upgrade so that it will work? &nbsp;I have just tried plugging in the 5&quot; LCD, and it does show a few items on the screen, but nothing that is very clear, so I am thinking I must need to do some sort of software upgrade perhaps so that the screen is re-calibrated. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
Any assistance would be appreciated, as I am not sure where to turn next.<br />

An embedded system is a computer system with a dedicated function within a larger mechanical or electrical system, often with real-time computing constraints. Examples of properties typical of embedded computers when compared with general-purpose ones are low power consumption, small size, rugged operating ranges, and low per-unit cost. Modern embedded systems are often based on microcontrollers; the processor(s) used may be types ranging from general purpose to those specialised in certain class of computations, or even custom designed for the application at hand. A common standard class of dedicated processors is the digital signal processor (DSP).

Embedded Hardware

Linux is a UNIX-like open source operating system with hundreds of distinct distributions, including: Fedora, openSUSE, Ubuntu, Debian, Slackware, Gentoo, CentOS, and Arch Linux. Linux is generally associated with web and database servers, but has become popular in many niche industries and applications.

Linux

Hardware includes cell phones and other digital living devices, tablets, computers, servers, peripherals and components, printers and scanners, gaming consoles, networking hardware such as routers, hubs, switches and modems, storage devices and security equipment such as firewalls and other appliances.
