Emulation of Character-Based LCD Display Using E-Ink Technology
Rusín, Tomáš ; Strnadel, Josef (referee) ; Šimek, Václav (advisor)
The aim of this bachelor thesis is to design a simple printed circuit board interconnect. The board is planned to be equipped with a microcontroller that will receive communication signals originally intended for LCD character displays. The communication may be parallel or serial, in the form of SPI and I2C type interfaces. These signals are planned to be received and converted to E-Ink display signals. That display will show information in the same format as it was designed for LCD displays. The E-Ink display replaces LCD displays without the need of changing the original library or the original communication interface. This method of replacement is suitable when a LCD character display is destroyed and a suitable replacement cannot be found, or when the E-Ink display is more suitable.
