driving cellphone lcd

Post by merimus »

I'm trying to determine how to drive an lcd from a cellphone.
Particularly from one of the new smartphones.

Anyone know how to drive the lcd on a Motorola Droid, or at least where to find the datasheet?

If the device is already programmable, it may be easier to leave the processor-display connection intact, and either run your code on that processor or make it a display processor slaved to your external controller. People have figured out how to talk ADB from embedded USB hosts...

Of course if you have a source of the bare displays, then this doesn't apply.
