Can i hook up a26pin lcd to Arduino

[tawkalin]

The model number is A015AN03 And there was information for each pin so can i?

I'm not an LCD expert, but those signals look like raw signals for the actual panel rather than signals that would go to an LCD controller IC. I suppose you could generate the digital signals in software but I'm not sure how useable the display would be when driven that way as I would imagine that a lot of the processor time would be taken up with the signal timing etc.

But I could be wrong....

Hardly. Find an application note, likely a libray handling the disply, before connecting anything.

Hi,
Full datasheet.

Can you please tell us your electronics, programming, arduino, hardware experience?

Thx for pdf. i know the basics and doing some repairs on pcs and making hobby projects and for programing on the Arduino i'm a newbie actualy i want tonmake a simple cellphone on the Arduino and trying use the lcd screen with this project.

@tawkalin

i know the basics

Hooking this up to an Arduino is going to be quite the challenge. I'm not saying it can't be done, but realistically, there will be a lot more to it than physically wiring the display to an Arduino. From a quick glance at the datasheet that @TomGeorge posted, I'm not sure that you will be able to generate some of the signals that the display requires.

I would suggest looking for one of the display modules with a built-in controller with an SPI interface as you will avoid all the LCD driver issues and there will likely be an Arduino library for the controller chip too.

Another option might be one of the old Nokia 5110 LCD modules - after all, it was primarily used on a phone.

I'm not sure there is a way to build a simple cellphone, even a 2G GSM phone is quite complicated (I used to work on them). Fortunately, there are modules you can get which do the RF part, Simple Phone: Call & SMS using GSM Module & Arduino

I think it would be appropriate to use a 5110 screen, you might have a chance of replicating that era of mobile phone technology.

What cellphone system do you have in your country?
2G (CDMA, GSM), 3G, 4G etc..

Tom....

[tawkalin]

4.5G but it just 4G

[TomGeorge]

How will you build the 4G RF part of the phone?
