Nokia Monochrome Displays


Overview

A series of Nokia cellphones in the 1990s used small black and white FSTN LCDs. These had a simple SPI like serial interface and could be easily driven with 5 control lines from an Arduino. Their small size (about 42mm square) and low power consumption make them ideal for portable Arduino projects. They have very good contrast in daylight, and can be mounted with external back-lighting. Much of the following information is from www.module.ro, by Bergthaller Iulian-Alexandru, and a copy of lcdtable.xls (“Mobile Phone LCD Controllers & specs”), dated 18 August 2011 2:35:39 PM, by Vladimir Bakum ( (R)soft).

Many of the displays can be extracted from old cellphones but have either elastomeric rubber or contact pins as their connector which makes them a little difficult to wire-up to other devices, so they are usually sold mounted on a small circuit board which brings the signals out to 0.1” spaced header pins.

Hardware description

The 84×48 displays are controlled by a surface mounted (chip on glass) Philips PCD8544, and the 96×65 displays often have a Philips OM6206 controller.

The common Nokia 3310/5110 display has a graphics display area of 84×48 pixels, and are about 38mm (1.5”) square. They require a 2.7V to 3.3V power supply and draw low current (< 8mA) if there is no backlight on.

The unmounted LCDs (ie not mounted on a small circuit board) have the following pin-outs 78):

pinout-1 79)

The LPH7366 has 9 pins:
