I recently bought a Nokia 6100 LCD from Ebay because I am in an LCD craze phase. Since I have no need for this LCD right now, I decided to port some code over to the PIC24H minibully from Sparkfun.

Parts

• Nokia ⁶¹⁰⁰⁄₆₆₁₀ LCD from Ebay or Sparkfun. If the Ebay link ends up dead, use this search link.

• A minibully from Sparkfun. But any PIC24F/PIC24H board should do.

• A 5V power source. The LCD requires 5V to operate properly. The minibully can only supply 3.3V. I used the Adjustable breadboard power supply from Seeedstudio.

• A way to program the minibully serially. I used the USB BUB Board from Moderndevice.

Pins

Here is the pin mapping I used to connect the LCD. You can change what pins the LCD uses by changing the defines (LCD_RES, LCD_DIO, LCD_SCK, LCD_CS) inside lcd.h.

Source

The code is based on the work done by AtomSoftTech. The person there made it for the PIC18F and I ported it to the minibully.
