Hi!
bought a graphic (serial?) display from ebay recently... but i cannot find a connection sheet to connect it to my computer... i also need to know if there is any program that can deal with this type of display.

its a EDT EW32F51FLY display. the information about the display can be found on tha upper link. pictures of it on the other two.

Thanks for helping!

It's controllerless, so you'll need a SED 133x board to connect it to the PC. Most LCD apps can drive it through the SED controller.
Always check the specsheet whether it has a supported controller before you buy an LCD on e-bay !
If you need a ready to connect 320x240 blue LCD you can contact (your Finnish neighbor) Henri 8)

damn... life's a bitch :?
i probable got to eager when i saw the price (30 USD) that i didn't think about checking the compatibility before i bought it.
so what is there to do about this problem, buy a controller card, buy one of these SED133x IC's or just dump the lcd in nearest bin.

btw, is there anything else you can do with a lcd besides connect it to the computer?

thanks for your help

You can ask Henri to build you a SED controller board :wink:

Yes, but if you're asking that question then it's probably beyond your skills (no offense, it's beyond my skills too :oops: ) besides connecting it to the PC is actually the simplest thing to do with it.

yeah it probably is, but it was worth a shot :)

isn't there any guide about how to build a controller card?
or else, henri! how much do you want of me to build a controller card? :D
