Character LCD

2002-09-27 Thread Julien EYRIES 

hi !

thank you for your answers .

i think a LCD with serial interface could just work fine for me.
However , it seems most of this small LCD panels comes with a parallel
interface (8+3 wires) and you need to add a small micro-controller to do
the parallel->serial conversion.

I was wondering if I could connect the LCD directly to the PPC 8260
and use a linux driver to handle the parallel->serial conversion .
If anyone know .. tell me :-)


Bye


Julien .

Hello,

I had an experience work with :

MSC-C162DGLY-1N (character)
MG-240128-1 (graphic)

but only via parallel port x86 MS-DOS and Linux
2.0.xx.
It was easy and stable.

Best wishes

Sergiy
