    Hello everybody,

    I’m trying to convert a lcd screen from an old laptop to work with usb. The problem is I dont’t know what controller board I should use, since I also want to use the touch function the screen has.

    The sticker on the backside of the screen shows the following number: screen_sticker.jpg

    If you need more information, please let me know.

      @besiece Your panel uses an eDP interface. You can find universal eDP controller boards with the usual suspects, such as Aliexpress or Ebay. I don’t know how the touch interface is controlled. The datasheet for that panel doesn’t mention touch at all. If it is via a second 4- or 5-pin connector it’s possibly USB.

      I have not yet dealt with eDP displays. My experience is with LVDS panels only.
