      Hi,
      I bought the VSDISPLAY HDMI VGA DVI Audio LCD Controller-card for LP173WD1 LTN173KT01-A01 B173RW01 LP140WD2 to attach my old laptop screen with the Raspberry Pi. This card takes 12 V.
      As I’m making a Magic Mirror, I would like to use only one power supply, but the Raspberry Pi takes 5 V.
      Is there a possibility to attach the Raspberry Pi to the controller card in order to use only one power supply?
      Thank you for your help.

      Yvonne
