I'm thinking of starting a new project where I would need to display data to a large LCD. There won't be a ton of data displayed, I just need the large screen size for to display 2 or 3 pages of data in a very easy to see fashion.
Anyway, it has to be a graphic lcd, and it should be 6-7". But the problem is how to interface with a mcu? There's a lot of good information on smaller lcds, but not so much for larger ones, nor is there much good info or sources at decent pricing. So I was thinking of maybe using a cheap 7" lcd made for automotive video...?
As for the mcu, typically I use Pic16F series mcus for everything I do, and would hope to keep with one of them, but if required could move to a more powerful pic24 or pic32.
I was just looking for suggestions from people who might have worked with larger lcds, or if someone knows of a site where someone documented working with them, cause all I'm finding are sites documenting character lcds or small graphic lcds.
Thanks!
