This is a Nokia 6300 screen. It’s a 320×240 screen that has about 2″ of diagonal checking out area as well as boasts 24-bit QVGA TFT technology. It’s going to look great in your next job as well as it won’t be difficult to get up as well as running thanks to the hardware as well as software application guide which [Andy Brown] put together. He selected this screen since of its features, however likewise since it’s truly simple to source as well as can be had for $5-7 delivered. The guide is aimed at working with the Arduino MEGA, however we’re sure you can port it for just about any type of microcontroller you’d like.
Much like the FPGA PSP screen we just looked at, [Andy] selected to style his own PCB to hold the LCD. This makes it a snap to connect the LCD — literally, considering that he handled to source the right snap-in connector. The board likewise holds a constant-current LED motorist which takes care of the backlight, as well as enabled him to develop in a level converter (since the screen communicates at 3.3V however Arduino utilizes 5V logic).
The software application tutorial is prolonged however impressive. We’re shocked at the performance he gets out of the AVR chip. See the screen cycle with a set of demos after the break.
