    ice,

    the code example is tested and working.

    There must be something wrong in your Hardware.

    could you post your schematic?
    regards

    Question Nokia Lcd

    Hello friends, excuseme for my english, it's not my language...

    It's so interesting to drive nokia LCD's, but i have questions:

    1) The nokia LCD has an internal controller, or are you controlling directly the crystal display???
    2) If in the fact it have a controller, where can i find information about how to drive my LCD. I have LCDs of nokia 8260, nokia 5120, nokia 6120... there are TDMA cell phones and I don't know what type of LCD they have.

    Help me please

    Thanks

    ice,

    please doublecheck your hardware setup.

    I have only a small 100nF cap on Pin 7 (VOUT)
    and Pin 5 (SCE) is directly tied to GND.
    regards

    Ralph

    ice,

    to be honest, the code is not mine,
    it's is more a combination if things I have cut and pasted
    for testing purposes.

    I'll have a deeper look into it when I find time.

    BTW.
    I'm running the LCD @ 3.3V!
    regards

    Ralph

    Thanks so much for your help, but I need more help...

    I'm talking about the specific models of LCDs that you can found in nokia TDMA cell phones: Nokia 8260,Nokia 5120, Nokia 3320...

    I seen the photos of the projects and i can see some diferences with my own LCDs, so my question is if your LCDs have an integrated controller or are you driving directly the crystal display, without an LCD's internal controller that can have communication with the external PIC micro?

    Thanks again...

    ok, here are some links:

    http://serdisplib.sourceforge.net/ser/pcd8544.html
    http://sandiding.tripod.com/lcd.html
    http://67.15.78.55/~spiral/colorlcd/colorlcd.html
    http://nokiaport.de/pinouts/pinouts.htm

    most of the monochrome NOKIA LCDs have an embedded PCD8544 controller (PHILIPS)

    If you google for NOKIA LCD you'll find many more.
    regards

    Ralph
