Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Hi ,

my 7" Display come this morning (SSD1963) , i will use it with the latest MZ based Micromite .

But my latest Hardware is a mm+64 so i need a test with this . the seller wrote the display has 16 bit interface , what should i do? will the standard 1963 driver run (8 bit) ?

Yes. There is no difference to the connections for the lower 8 bits and the control signals

No change needed. The SSD1963 isn't really true 16-bit. All the commands and cursor positioning are done in 8 bits even though setting the x and y coordinates then need two bytes sending. It is only the colour which uses the extra bits and that is just set up in the initialisation commands in the software
