Using the PD8544 "Nokia 5110 LCD" with STM8EF

A project log for eForth for cheap STM8S gadgets

Turn cheap modules from AliExpress into interactive development kits!

The 84x48 LCD module I bought about 3 years ago (just in case) was so well stowed away that I found stuff I had been missing for months before I finally found it. I needed something to test layered #include files:

  register names ← SPI routines ← LCD primitives ← character output.

It works as advertised, but I have no intentions of posting yet another PD8544 84x48 LCD picture. If someone knows of a 3x6, 3x8 or 4x8 bitmap font that's in the public domain I'll add it to the STM8EF lib/misc folder. Otherwise just drop me a note if you want to give it a try.

Heh!  I just picked up some 84x48 nokia's for cheap.  I was hoping there was something I could do with them that was cool.  What did you use before?  Do you think they could work well with either the STM8L051F3 or the STM8S103F3P6?

  Are you sure? yes | no
