Optional HDMI connector
In addition to LVDS interface, NXP i.MX6 processor also has an embedded HDMI Tx module, which provides a HDMI standard interface for HDMI1.4a compliant
displays. By using HDMI interface along with two LVDS single channel interfaces, it is possible to drive up to 3 independent displays.

For ESD protection, on all data and voltage lines are placed clamping diodes for voltage transient suppression.
Always use HDMI-certified cables for the connection between the board and the HDMI display; a category 2 (High-Speed) cable is recommended for higher
resolutions, category 1 cables can be used for 720p resolution.
