Hi,

i've a dspic30f4011 and the same display bought from gravitech. I'm going to study the microchip GUI, do you have a schematic of the circuit and/or a demo file for the 30f4011 that work with your schematics? I've read that microchip GUI work only with some 16bit pic devise such as pic24, isn't ?

Thank you.

Yes, microchip gonna support some sort of device that they wish to, but it does not mean that we can not implement its on other device/family. what we need to do is just create a new device driver.

About schematics and the code, if I do have time i'll publish it in some blog, but i'm not sure it will be in any time soon.

How did you learn about graphics Lcds?

Any online resources or books you recomend?

Thanks.

LCD datasheet + LCD controller datasheet and of cause the microchip graphic library source code.

@epareja2 Can you share that link? Thanks.

[BAJANCHAMELEON]

Nice but not very helpful at all.

Hello again.

Thanks for the link you gave me. It helped me understand and setup my own hardware. I finally got to work the LCD yesterday and I'm really happy with that. If you woulnt had given me the link probablly I would had quited the project.

I uploaded a video with my hardware dsPIC30F4013 in my youtube channel.

Thank you again!!

Hi... nice work on the LCD.

Can you share with me the code of your program? I've been trying to implement my own LCD project using my own PCB design but It's been hard to find how to do it. The GOL examples have a lot of PICTAIL boards compiler directives and I always get lost on that.

If you want I can publish your work on my site dcctrains.netne.net

thank you

What LCD is that?

Whos the manufacturer?

Do you have a link to the datasheet?

[PodeCoet]

Nice work!

[sbk1]

what is the LCD's brand and model? where could I find one and datasheet?

[gigiovanni]

I've started to study microchip GUI and i found the .h file where the controller register are defined, but i don't find where the connession between the pic and the controller are made... i expected some such:

#define LCD_DB0 PORTB.0

it is correct ? or connession are defined in main program or in an other way?

Thank you for your patience.. i hope you'll find time to publish the code and the scheme... lol..
