ramzessii Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Hi Lebor, Wonderful work! CDU looks amazing. Can you please tell me what 3.5" LCD in particular you used and how are you getting the signal to it? Is it Arduino + DCS-BIOS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agrasyuk Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 as far as video signal, judging by the visible VGA cable i would guess its a viewport. i am however interested to find out what lcd+controller combo was used here. 3.5" LCDs are abundant on ebay, but for some reason the moment anything better then composite out is required, like VGA, the price immediately jumps north of 100$ ... very reasnoable 5 inch one , with HDMI even, i don't get why such difference Anton.

ramzessii Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 How about using 3.5" LCD available for arduino? In theory it should be just as good if not better? (by better I mean - you don't have to use VGA). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agrasyuk Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 You will need to look closer at what those 3.5" arduino LCD actually are. With either SPI or 8bit interface you get very low draw speeds (think several seconds to redraw entire screen) and with available lcd libraries your arduino code can only draw geometrical shapes and text of set font. Im not sure what "theory" you had in mind, but those screen can not output live image from PC. Anton. My pit build thread .

FSFIan Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I agree with agrasyuk, for a 320x240 display I would look into something with more processing power and memory. The framebuffer for a 320x240 display will need at least 9600 bytes, which is too much for the 2048 bytes of RAM in the Arduino. This means you would probably not be able to use most of the display libraries out there. I don't want to claim that it is impossible to do with an Arduino, but it would require a lot of work and may still end up being too slow in the end. The SPI or 8-bit parallel interface is not a problem in itself, it is the low processing power of the Arduino that is the problem. It can't drive those interfaces fast enough.
