 		 #87291 - Animation
Responding to: ???'s previous message
For animated ICONs or other small graphic areas it all really depends upon the overall display rate you need. If you want 200 Hz modulation of the display image then forget it. Besides that at anything over about 12 Hz the LCD will smear bad anyway.

Keeping this in mind it should be easy for a SiLabs part to keep your screen up to date for a couple of ICONs of say 16x16 pixels where the image is re-painted several times per second.

--------------------

By the way.....which SiLabs part are you using anyway? and what speed is its SYS_CLK?
