Nokia 3310 LCD & PIC12F629 Thermometer -  English version link (electronic design idea added 09/08)
Nokia 7650 LCD Controller -  Despite nobody seems to own the appropriate documentation, it is possible to use the big cheap color LCD displays of the Nokia series 60 cell phones for home brew projects. I don't even have the docs and it was a rough and painful way, but now it works.….(Circuit design added 06/09)
PIC LCD & Keypad Driver -  (circuit / schematic design added 6/06)
Pot Adjusts LCD's Contrast -  02/04/99 EDN-Design Ideas.....  You can use a digitally controlled potentiometer for many purposes. In this example, you can use the device to regulate the contrast of a standard (such as two lines by 40 characters]LCD. You can use the circuit in Figure 1 in a portable test system, in which t.....File contains several circuits, please scroll down for this one..... [Design Idea by Jef Collin, CSE Systems, Turnhout, Belgium]
Potentiometer Controls LCD Bias -  03/17/94 EDN-Design Ideas.....Designers of pen-based computers can easily relegate some controls that were previously mechanical, such as switches and potentiometers, to on-screen icons. For example, the circuit in Fig 1 shows one way that digital logic can control the -24V-dc LCD bias using two general-purpose I/O command lines. The DS-1669 from Dallas Semiconductor..... [Design Idea by Michael Cortopassi, Dauphin Technology, Lombard, IL]
Precision Wideband Current Probe for LCD Backlight Measurement -  DN101  Design Notes (Linear Technology) (app note added 6/06)
Processor's PWM output controls LCD/LED driver -  27-May-04 Issue of EDN  The PWM (pulse-width-modulation] output available from many microprocessors is based on an internal 8- or 16-bit counter and features a programmable duty cycle. It is suitable for adjusting the output of an LCD driver (Figure 1], a negative-voltage LCD driver (Figure 2], or a current-controlled LED driver (Figure 3]..... [Design Idea by Joe Neubauer, Maxim Integrated Products, Sunnyvale, CA]
Quad Output Switching Converter Provides Power for Large TFT LCD Panels -  DN349  Design Notes (Linear Technology).....[App Note]
Rolled-Off Noise Source -  This is a circuit that generates white noise, rolled-off to drive earphones or a small speaker. White noise creates is a "rushing" sound, which sounds something like air rushing by your ear(s). White noise would be flat with frequency,[From Dick Cappels' project pages] (circuit added 6/07)
Serial Interface & bias supply for Seiko-Epson G1216B dot graphics display -  [From Dick Cappels' project pages](schematic added 6/07)
Serial Interface for Truly MTC-C162DPLY-2N, 2 line X 16 char LCD display -  [From Dick Cappels' project pages] (schematic / circuit added 6/07)
Serial LCD Controller -  Serial LCD/VFD Controller is a HD44870 based LCD/VFD controller via RS-232. The control command is compatible with Matrix-Orbital's LCD module. So, you can use any MO friendly software to control this baby such as LCDC. ….(design added 11/08)
Serial LCD for microControllers using only 3 pins -  Connect an LCD to your microcontroller to make it easy to develop and debug your application. You can choose which PIC I/O pins you want to use for the interface, and any HD44780 compatible LCD can be controlled…..(design added 05/09) [Peter Jakab, Electrical Engineer, Engineer of Informatics]
Series Connected Voltage Boost Circuit for a Battery Operated LED Lantern -  A circuit that goes in series with a white LED and a 1.5 volt cell to make > 3 Volts to drive a white LED.[From Dick Cappels' project pages](schematic / circuit added 6/07)
Seven-segment LCD uses two-wire interface -  4-Sep-03 Issue of EDN  You can connect seven-segment LCDs using only a two-wire interface (Figure 1]. The two-wire interface may be at the field-effect, direct-drive LCD or at a serial interface (such as I2C] that uses an eight-pin microcontroller. The design in Figure 1 uses an Atmel (www.atmel.com] ATtiny12 microcontroller, IC1..... [Design Idea by Hans Krobath, EEC, Nesconset, NY]
Simple Active-Matrix LCD Bias Supply Operates from Battery Input -  02/03/00 EDN-Design Ideas.....Many active-matrix-LCD applications need multiple voltages for thin-film-transistor (TFT]bias. Typically, three voltages are necessary  5V for  column driver; a positive voltage, such as 10V; and a negative voltage, such -5V, for  TFT gate drive, or row driver. For handheld electronic devices, a battery must..... [Design Idea by Michael Shrivathson, National Semiconductor Corp, Santa Clara, CA]
Simple tester checks LCDs -  3-Oct-02 Issue of EDN  Manufacturers of electronic equipment use LCDs for calculators, watches, mini-videogames, and pagers, for example. In comparison with LED-based displays, which consume power on the order of tens of milliwatts, an LCD consumes only a few microwatts. [Design Idea by D Prabakaran, NL Polytechnic College, Tamil Nadu, India]
Single IC Biases LCD and GaAsFET Amplifier -  04/09/98 EDN-Design Ideas.....Operating from a lithium-ion cell or a four-cell NiCd battery, the circuit in Figure 1  provides �6V bias for LCDs and a separate, quiet negative bias for a GaAsFET power amplifier.  This bias combination exists in cell phones,.....contains several circuits, scroll to this one.....
