VAR-SOM-AM33 Display
Introduction
Variscite's VAR-DVK-AM33 LCD signals are configured by default as 16bit. To alter board to support 24bit LCD: remove resistor net RN109 and install RN108. This will disable the GPMC signals from the external header. The pin-muxing is also configured by default to 16bit. Use the below pin-mux examples to modify from 16bit to 24bit LCD configuration.
