Hi

For a new design I am looking for cheap LCD modules:

64x64 dots (or more)
16mm x 20mm outline
SPI, I2C, parallel, I don't care
Backlight

The source must be stable, so we don't run into obsolescence problems

Anyone come accross something below 3-5 USD in large quantities?

Thanks

Klaus

For others that may be curious, found this:

Good quality and seems it should sell for about 3 USD :-)

It is also a bit bigger than he wants, and without backlight. Anyway,
for small LCD this size, only graphical (segmented) screen make
sense. Otherwise, over 1/4 of non-viewable area or additional FPC ($$
$).

To OP: I emailed you back, but no response from you yet.

I used to blame Bush for this, so now I blame Obama.

3 EUR, yes, but normalt the price figures ón distributor pages are
approx. 40 % higher than the "real" qoutes from the manufactor. Thus
EUR = USD :-)
