thanks for the reply and great library, this speed would be just ok if the display is all you had too do.... and theres lots of great features particularly including M2klib
so i decided to look again at the old library here: Google Code Archive - Long-term storage for Google Code Project Hosting.
it is (i imagine) designed from ground with native support for this controller in mind, and it performs that way too i found out.
the u8glib hello world example takes 408 milliseconds to complete one loop
void loop(void) {
unsigned long time = millis();
// picture loop
u8g.firstPage();
do {
draw();
} while( u8g.nextPage() );
// rebuild the picture after some delay
Serial.println(millis() - time);
delay(500);
}
but the t6963c library with code that does the same thing (print hello world) takes at most 1 millisecond, sometimes none... ]![]()
void loop(){
unsigned long time = millis();
LCD.TextGoTo(0,0);
LCD.writeString("Hello World");
Serial.println(millis() - time);
delay(1000);
}
i will fork arduino-t6963c and try adding some more features as i need
