 Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me. |

You will find literally over 1.5 million Google search engine hits for "Nokia 3310 display." The 3310 is the same as the 3315 (and the 3310 itself can be flashed to a 3315). The local cell phone parts center still sells the 3310 etc. display and keyboard assembly for about $2.50 -- the keyboard section can be cut off. The display has its contacts printed on glass, so you need to use pressure to make a connection, if you don't have some kind of assembly. The device will run at 5V but that can shorten its life. 3.3v is the preferred voltage. There are conflicting online versions of the pinouts (but not the actual display), so you need to make sure you are using the right pins. Chapter 4 of the book TinyAVR Projects for the Evil Genius is a nice guide to using this display, and I have seen it mentioned in other publications. There is even a photo of the assembly I mentioned above, on page 104. MakerShed in the USA sells a comparable kit for $10: MakerShed 5110 Display Kit The eBay listing above is so cheap that buying at least a half dozen of these displays is a great idea, just on general principles. You can create your own fonts, or use the display for graphics. |

Sure The LCd is wired as follows Maximite Pin Nokia LCD Pin 1 = Pin3(SCE) Pin 2 SPI TX = Pin6(DN/MOSI) Pin 3 SPI CLK = Pin7(SCLK) Pin 4 = Pin4(RST) Pin 5 = Pin5(D\C) Pin 6 SPI RX Unused Attached is an improved version with all the DATA statements removed The fonts now load from the SD Card. To use copy the included fonts.dat to your B: Drive This has made the program memory use much better 9% VS 27% Regards John 2012-04-13_161903_NLCDv2.zip |
