Hi all,
I am planning to set my 11" touchscreen as a stand-alone desktop monitor (similar to the one shown below). My intention is to use it with the USB oscilloscope, Analog Discovery etc
My only concern is that I need to pass three cables, these being the 12VDC power, HMDI, and USB for the touchscreen. Since I am the type of person that freaks out when I see a lot of cables on the desk/workbench, the plan is to get a USB-A to HDMI hub like this one.
This way, the only cable from the PC to the screen will be a USB cable. Then I will mount a small/flat ABS project box at the back to the screen and plug the HDMI to the port of the hub, the USB for the touchscreen to the USB of the hub. and use a 5V to 12V step-up module to power the screen from the USB (max current for the screen is listed as 1A, but I doubt is will reach anywhere near 1A).
Will this setup work? any other suggestions?
