We tried do a connector from the PCB to the first display panel 16pin input for our FAST RGB DMD but found that not all the sourced panels line up exactly the same and caused the display to not line up correctly. Even the placement of the power connectors varied from display lot to lot. Just FYI before you run too many PCBs.

Quoted from pinballsp:

Power supply connectors are very poor placed, but data connectors even though not perfect aligned, connect with a female connector in PCB. I assemble all my DMDST32 from the begining with this system time ago and work perfect, never fail.

In that form factor you have some wiggle room because the PCB is screwed to the display panel and the mounting bracket is floating in between the two. That will let you line it up nicely with the opposite panel.

I was referring to the other design where you are using the PCB as the mounting bracket, like our design. Due to the fixed position for that first panel that connects directly to the PCB that panel can end up be a little out of alignment. Even 0.5mm skew shows the divide between the panels. Tension on that connector caused by a physical twist to get the panels aligned right might not be the best. This RGB panels are delicate in their own ways. You could always reflow the soldier on that connector and twist it a little, but that would get old over and over.

Just passing on something we learned on our multiple turns. PCB and the shipping that goes with it definitely adds up.

That fast controller is very interesting indeed!

We are overdue for a cool update. I'll post elsewhere in the next day or two.
