MSP430N1202Img

Display a bit-mapped image on the Nokia 1202 LCD. This LCD is a monochrome, backlit, 96x68 pixel display. It uses the ST Microelectronics STE2007 driver chip.

The image was originally drawn for a demo at Dorkbot Bristol in 2012. The PPM file is converted into a C header file by a small utility program 'ppm2h' which is built and executed by the Makefile.

The program is in C and may be compiled with GCC on Linux.

Connections

Name Port Pin Activity
CS P1.4 6 Chip Select
SCK P1.7 9 SPI Clock
SDA P1.5 7 SPI Data
RESET P1.2 4 Unused

Building and Programming

First of all, we'll need the MSP430 cross-compiler:

sudo apt install gcc-msp430

To program the chip, we need 'mspdebug':

sudo apt install mspdebug

To build the PPM conversion tool, we'll need 'build-essential':

sudo apt install build-essential

Finally, to compile and link the code:

make

An additional Makefile target is used to program the chip:

make prog
