Embedded-Code.com Updates Monochrome Graphic Screen Driver

Posted by Ken Cheung in EDA Tools on Friday, January 30, 2009

Embedded-Code.com has announced the release of a significant update to its low cost monochrome (single colour) graphic screen driver. The driver is a very popular choice for embedded product designers faced with the task of creating a bespoke user interface on their products graphic display. The new release of the driver features the ability to place text and graphic bitmap images anywhere on a screen without having to worry about inherent 8 bit size multiples and boundaries of these types of displays.

Improved text display features now include monospace or proportional text display with left, centre or right alignment and automatic scrolling options. The PC Bitmap Converter Application supplied with the source code driver has also been improved and allows users to convert their bitmaps, created with a standard graphics application, ready for use with the driver with the option to export the graphics as a C header file for really easy inclusion within their program memory.

Designed for use with 8, 16 and 32 bit microcontrollers and processors, the driver removes the need for embedded designers to use LCD, E Ink, LED, OLED and Vacuum Fluorescent displays in pre-defined ways, instead allowing user interfaces to be designed exactly as required, down to the individual pixel. As with all embedded-code.com drivers, customers only pay a low one time purchase cost and may then use the source code in as many of their products as they wish for life.

Full details of the driver can be found at www.embedded-code.com/product_info.php?products_id=28
