EZ430-Chronos - another display?

Hi,

Is it possible to connect display like this:

to the EZ430-Chronos?

Alexey

  • Aleksey,

    The display you are pointing to seems to have a SPI interface and a few other GPIO lines. If these are available in the EZ430-Chronos, or you disconnect something to make them available, then you will be able to use it.

    Will it be possible to use LCD_Bottom bus?

    Sort of. All LCD-related port pins of any MSP can be alternatively used as plain digital general-purpose I/O. And so are the lines on the LCD_Bottom bus.

    I doubt, however, that one of these lines is multiplexted with the signals from the hardware SPI/I2C interface. So you'll either do the interfacing with software bit-banging, or you'll need to re-route some signals from other pins. The datasheet of the msp430F6137 will tell you more.

    Can you give me a link to it?

    I need something like here

    There are a lot of things, voltage, power consumption, description of pins, etc.

    Can TI provide me with the similar information about the current display of EZ430-Chronos so I could be sure that it is possible to attach new display?

  • Were you able to find out whose display they use for the chronos or a similar solution they may propose?
