Hi I'm new to this forum and I hope you can help me in finding good tutorials in dealing with graphic LCD controllers and touchscreen controllers for the LCD, all I found is about character LCDs , I wonder whether dealing with graphic LCD will be similar or not so for the touchscreen also I wonder if PIC microcontrollers will be the best choice to control these two things or I should think of other microcontrollers ?and what would they be ? If you could shorten my way and save my time by leading me to good tutorials , or answering my questions ...I would be very very thankful ! Thanks a lot ,
dealing with a graphic lcd is similar to a character, its just different (okay so that made no sense). i would find a librarly in c that someone has already made and work from there, i know for avr's there are a few libs for graphic lcd's but im not sure for pic's (mainly because i don't use them). But I'm sure that there will be a PIC graphic lcd lib out there somewhere. As for which microcontroller (uc) to use... use the one that you know. If you don't know how to use uc's yet start on some simpler projects and work up. Getting an lcd to work is a big step for someone who hasn't touched uc's before, but within a few weeks of learning you could easily get one going. i prefer AVR's over PIC's, but thats just me. Finally go onto some uc forums for more specific help. If you use AVR's http://www.avrfreaks.com/ is really good.
