# Adafruit DVI Breakout Board - For HDMI Source Devices

**Type:** Product page · **SKU:** ADA4984 · **Brand:** [Adafruit](https://core-electronics.com.au/brands/adafruit-australia)
**Page:** https://core-electronics.com.au/adafruit-dvi-breakout-board-for-hdmi-source-devices.html ([markdown](https://core-electronics.com.au/adafruit-dvi-breakout-board-for-hdmi-source-devices.html.md))

Adafruit designed this little breakout board after seeing some cool demos for the Raspberry Pi Pico driving an HDMI display. By using some fun 'abuse' of overclocking and the RP2040's PIO system a low-cost microcontroller can have great looking video output. Great for making demos, or just noodling around with digital video generation.

## Pricing

- **Price:** $4.15 (inc GST) — $3.77 AUD, exc GST
- **Quantity discounts:** 10+ $3.66 (exc GST) · 50+ $3.58 (exc GST)

## Availability & dispatch

- In stock, ships same business day if ordered before 2PM (Australia/Sydney).
- We can dispatch 2 today, and up to 500 more in 8–12 days.

## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=ADA4984:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/ADA4984:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

## Description

Adafruit designed this little breakout board after seeing [some cool demos for the Raspberry Pi Pico driving an HDMI display](https://github.com/Wren6991/PicoDVI). By using some fun 'abuse' of overclocking and the RP2040's PIO system a low-cost microcontroller can have great looking video output. Great for making demos, or just noodling around with digital video generation.

This breakout board has no active components on it. It's just a connector you can plug an HDMI/DVI cable into, and 220 ohm series resistors. There's a spot for an I2C EEPROM and some resistors, but those are for advanced folks who may want to create a 'sink' device with an EDID. Adafruit don't place those parts on this breakout, since this is intended to be a 'source' only!

Wire it up to the bottom pins of your Pico board with the following:

- GP12 to D0+
- GP13 to D0-
- GP14 to CK+
- GP15 to CK-
- GP16 to D2+
- GP17 to D2-
- GP18 to D1+
- GP19 to D1-

And tie all the grounds together to one ground pin.

**Technical Details**

- Product Dimensions: 30.4mm x 21.6mm x 8.5mm / 1.2" x 0.9" x 0.3"
- Product Weight: 3.9g / 0.1oz
