    mix and match they are very easy to use... good support etc

    worth a look maybe

    I think what Duncan's wanted to show you, is what you'll find at the bottom of the page... a PBP code example. They also explain few things as well.

    OOOPs sorry... saw you asked for the serial code example... damn...

    It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
    There's no problem, only learning opportunities.

    This device can be used in SPI mode. Page 8 of the above PDF show you how to process with.

    Nice starter, is to compare a working code example and modify it for your need. The following is for 93LC56A EEPROMs

    First i would suggest you to begin with parallel mode, then once you exactly know how your GLCD work, add the serial interface in between (after having done some tests with)
