Re: Help: New advice for Graphics LCD

I assume you are using a STN type LCD module with a touch screen
interface. You'll need a 4-wire touch controller (assuming you are
using a 4-wire system). it's possible to make your own, but existing
parts to do this are common (Philips UCB14000 for instance).

LCD video controllers implement huge amounts of logic to control the
pixel drawing. you might get away with a PIC if you were using dual
ported RAM - otherwise you might well need something more beefy.

A lot depends on exactly what style (resolution, type etc) of LCD
display you are using.
