Displaying content on a normal alphanumeric display is very limited ,we have to be limited with the font size and we can't draw any graphics also. but convention Graphics lcd are really very expensive so here is the solution, you can use ST7565 monochrome LCD to display your large font text and graphics . the reason behind using this LCD is ,it is really very cheap and can be powered with 3 volts supply. so it is really good for battery powered application.
Project Description
however you can use almost any microcontroller to display content on this LCD, may be that micro controller is PIC , AVR or MSP430 , but in this demonstration we will be using Microchip MSP430G2211 Microcontroller from Texas Instrument .
The software program for this project will be written in Code composer studio 5.1, This LCD has a resolution of 132x65 pixel.
Circuit Description
About LCD:-
ST7565 Graphical LCD uses ST7565 Controller chip From Sitronix. It is a chip-on glass(COG) with at least 7 pin connector on LCD. but for backlit you may also have dedicated pin. You can refer to its datasheet for more information about this controller. (CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD ST7565 Controller DATA SHEET).we will discuss only few main points here for out project purpose.

Are you using Bitbanging SPI or using H/W SPI port
ReplyDeleteit use software (bit-banging) spi
Deletewill it works for "Nokia-5510 and MSP430F5325"
