Hello all, I seem to play with a ton of LCDs and always waste so many pins on it. I want to create my own LCD controller for my 1.8" LCD
I know how to write to the LCD as most have seen on my blog but the issue isnt communication but what to communicate...
I want to know what do you think a LCD Controller IC should do? Should i use SPI/UART for MCU communication to it?
But of course i want to make it as universal as i can. Like by having the option for a 8 or 16 bit LCDs and also have give the user the option to setup some GPIO for use a Clock Line, Enable line etc...
Even Backlight control!
I wanted to know where should i start?
I plan on using a ARM since it has so much to offer for something like this and i have all the tools and ICs needed to start this up. Also the speed is great!
