A Nokia 6100 (or 6610) LCD display driver for use with the Arduino micrcontroller platform.

Sample AVR library for controlling the Nokia 6100 LCD.

The library is written in C language and compiled with C30 compiler for the dsPIC family.

Most Nokia phones have F-Bus and M-Bus connections that can be used to connect a phone to a PC or a microcontroller. The connection can be used for controlling just about all functions of the phone, as well as uploading new firmware etc. This bus will allow us to send and receive SMS messages.

Some links to interesting pages with LCD information.

Most used are these green character displays with two or more rows to display menus, status or debug messages. With mass production of mobile phones, color LCDs get that cheap, that they can be used as replacement. To test the display, I hacked a kind of small digital picture frame, that fetches pictures from Flickr.

This project is a short range, infrared and ultrasonic scanner that uses a standard hobby servo to move the sensors and a color LCD screen to display the information from the sensors.

How to manage Nokia 6100 LCD to use 4096 colors without any limitations? It's easy... You can use my library for free.

As I promise in my previous article , here is my improved LCD C library for using with the Nokia 6100 Series LCD.

Main feature in this library is method to use full 4096 colors in the 8bits (256col) mode. It is enabled by simple hack, based on the color lookup table and the LRU cache.
