How to simulate the Nokia 5110 LCD in LabWired

  1. Open the Playground at app.labwired.com and place an MCU board.
  2. Add the Nokia 5110 LCD (catalog type pcd8544).
  3. Connect VCC and GND to the supply and ground of the board.
  4. Connect CLK and DIN to the SPI pins of the board.
  5. Connect CE to the chip-select pin of the board, or to a free GPIO.
  6. Connect RST and DC to free GPIO pins.
  7. Run the firmware. It selects the part and moves bytes over the simulated SPI bus as on hardware.
