This mini-tutorial will go through the process of setting up a ST7565 LCD. These LCDs are graphical which means they can display pixels, not just text. This type of LCD in particular has 128×64 pixels, which appear dark gray on a green-blue background. They have a backlight but can also be used without the light on for daytime visibility (Instructable docs are up!)…

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
Hey guy, when will you sell a very basic txt reader with one of these screens? i guess that 320×240 or 640×480 monocrome LCD display will work. Any ideas about this? i think that a PIC 18F series will be enoght to control it (read SD card, translate TXT file into the screen). How much would it cost?

This should be close to what you want.
