RTX color LCD

During my job at RTX I got the possibility to get a 128×128 color LCD. The display had both 16, 8 bit parallel interface and also serial interface. Since it was only a test, I choose the serial on less I/O demanding interface. Speed wasn’t an issue as well.\r\n\r\nBelow is some pictures from my test setup.\r\n\r\nMy first initialization can be seen in below movie, click picture (0.4MB): (It’s a bit slow since I update each pixel with X-, Y- coordinates and 8-bit color.)\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nAfter initialization routine was running on my mega8, I uploaded an altered BMP picture via the UART to the LCD. I was quite happy with the result myself.\r\n\r\nAfter having played with the display for a while, I decided to port my code from CodeVision to the free GNU GCC compiler. I did this onto a AT90USB1287 AVR to have a simple USB BUS powered system without the use of external power supply. Simple but effective.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nAnd finally some more pictures uploaded to the display:\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
