TC55471 GUI Controller for Kyocera Display (Optrex) F-55471 LCD

TC55471 240x64 Controller Description

The TC55471 is an intelligent LCD controller with an integrated touch screen control that supports Kyocera Display (former Optrex) F-55471 Series 240x64 COG Monochrome STN Graphic LCDs. This controller allows user to individually control each display pixel. This independent pixel control allows displaying both text and pictures simultaneously. The TC55471 uses an ATMEGA32 microcontroller and a 4M bit AT45DB041B Flash. The microcontroller can be reprogrammed at any time by using AVRISP device. This board requires a single regulated 3.3VDC supply to be plugged into J12 connector (bypass voltage regulator) or 7-20 VDC power supply to be plugged into J8 or J9 (optional) connectors.

Key Features

• RS-232 communication interface PC and TTL

• Optional Bluetooth communication interface

• Nine programmable baud rates

• 4Mb Flash Memory for fonts, bitmaps and GUI storage

• Touch screen controller

• AVRISP Interface

• Draw/Clear Line/Rectangle/Circle

• Animation

• 3.3VDC voltage regulator

• Software controls LCD contrast, backlight ON/OFF, display ON/OFF

• Hardware contrast adjustment

• Power up user defined settings (saved in the memory)

• Multiple display modes: Normal, Reverse, Mixed

• 4 integrated fonts (custom fonts are available) can be mixed freely on the screen: 7 pixels (H), 14 pixels (H), 14 pixels (H) Bold, 22 pixels (H)

Multiple Display Modes

TouchScreen Controller

The TouchScreen controller can respond by sending XY coordinates of touch screen contact location or by sending digits (if used as a 6x3 keypad) to main microprocessor or computer. The TC55471 controller has a built-in buzzer which can produce a sound on touch. In 6x3 Keypad Mode, the screen is divided on 18 boxes 37x18 pixels each. Each box response can be disabled or enabled. Touch screen controller if used in 6x3 Keypad Mode provides a Flip option which reverses colors of the touched box.

Key Benefits

• Can be used as a development board or OEM

• The firmware can be customized for particular application

• The hardware can be modified for specific OEM requirements

• VIs and programming examples for LabVIEW are available
