I got this version working just the screen is the wrong way.
can any make me the files from this info ???
For the version 1,12.
I cant seem to get programmers notepad to work proberly.

Try this to see if it works for you.

Mega328_T3_T4_st7565 v1.12 k (702), Xtal=8MHZ, Font=8x16, No Resistor Pull-Ups Installed, With Rotary Check.



Unzip with WinRar.

A greeting.

can you try to compile this for me ??

PARTNO = m328p

# The WITH_MENU option enables a dialog to choose some additional functions.
# Currently a frequency measurement at ATmega Pin PD4, a frequency generator at TP2 ,
# the external voltage measurement and C+ESR measurement can be selected. Of course you can also return to
# the normal transistor tester function and switch off the tester.
CFLAGS += -DWITH_MENU

# For ATmega328 the menu function "rotary encoder check" is only enabled with the WITH_ROTARY_CHECK option.
CFLAGS += -DWITH_ROTARY_CHECK

# With the menu item "Show data" the used icons and the font data are displayed for
# graphical displays after the presentation of calibration data.
# You can switch off the presentation of the icons and the font data by setting
# the option NO_ICONS_DEMO to save flash memory and display time.
#CFLAGS += -DNO_ICONS_DEMO

# The menu function can be easier controlled with a incremental encoder (rotary switch).
# Both switches of the rotary switch can be connected with 1 kOhm resistors to PD1 and PD3.
# The common contact of the two switches must be connected to GND.
# You must also connect both switch contacts with two 10 kOhm resistors to VCC (pull up).
# The best choise is a incremental encoder with Push Button. The button can be connected
# parallel to the start key of the Transistor Tester.
# A define of the WITH_ROTARY_SWITCH enable the support for this extension.
# If your encoder has the same count of pulses at any switch as indexed positions (detent) for every turn,
# you should set the WITH_ROTARY_SWITCH to 2 or 3.
# If your encoder has twice the count of indexed positions, you should set the WITH_ROTARY_COUNT to 1.
# For rotary encoder without indexed position or with an indexed position at every change of
# the state of any switches (four times the count of pulses) you can set the
# WITH_ROTARY_COUNT to 5 for getting the best resolution.
# You can also use two separate push-buttons for Up and Down instead ot the rotary encoder.
# You must set the WITH_ROTARY_SWITCH to 4 for the UP/DOWN push-buttons.

I've made another compilation for you to try.

In a few minutes I do the compilation you asked for and I upload it.

A greeting.

Well ty for the try.
guess i will be stuck at the 1.11k i got working with display upside/down.

I'm sorry it did not work for you.

If you need me to compile any other tomorrow i can do it.

Good luck and regards.

Try the attached files. If they work but have the wrong orientation, take a picture of what's on the screen. This is based on the one you claim worked.

I think hapless has come up with the version you need.

I've taken the liberty of creating a compilation like hapless but with the screen rotated horizontally to see if it serves you.

To me, it looks like maybe we're trying too hard: perhaps no flipping is required at all. Here's an "unflipped" version. Makefile included.

To me, it looks like maybe we're trying too hard: perhaps no flipping is required at all. Here's an "unflipped" version. Makefile included.
TYVM both, this 1 works like a charm :)
finaly.

You're welcome, I'm glad it works.

For those with the AY-AT model, which way does the diode go? Is the part number upside down or right side up?

You can find examples (pictures) in this thread of the protection diode P6KE6V8A (editted)

The TVS' are available in two versions:
- A for unidirectional
- CA for bidirectional

For a P6KE6V8CA the polarity wouldn't matter, but a P6KE6V8A needs some attention (cathode pointing to Vcc).

Digging through the 100+ pages but can't find two of my answers. Did find the some upgrading info and may try that.

I think my display ( de-laminated from the glass) is an ST7576 SPI LCD on a GM328 Tester. It has 12864-1602-v1.1 in the back. Vaguely remember 1.11 firmware when I bought it.

Is it an ST7576 SPI LCD? Where can I get an inexpensive display to resolder to the board?

Thanks

The protection diode P6KE6V8 is bidirectional. Polarity does not matter in this case.

Wow. This is way more info than the ebay listing I bought mine from. Thanks.

For people who ordered one with an acrylic case: Did yours come with a small white plastic tube? What is that for?

lol
that aliexpress seller soldered the test socket in the wrong way around!

To extend the handle of the ZIF socket.

The ST7576 drives up to 66x102 pixels. Your display is most likely a ST7565 and you can get that from the usual sources of cheap electronic parts ;)

Mea culpa, missed the other two TO92s. Please check the power section again. The LED should turn on when the push button is pressed.

finally fixed it, there was a short after R8.
Will try get it on proper PCB, also i have salvaged this LD29150 low drop voltage regulator, it has Inhibit (ttl level on off ?),
what will be the best way to use it ?
should i use the fish type PSU with this regulator and mosfet removed ? directly tie the Gate to inhibit ?

also i have the TL431 (TJ431), should i use it or the internal reference is better than it ?

The maximium voltage for the inhibit input is 20V. So you could connect it to the power supply via a resistor possibly. A TL431 as voltage reference doesn't make much sense, better use something like a LM4040.

So I'm playing around with compiling, I'm using Win AVR to compile, without changing a thing my compiled hex file comes to 101kb for the ST7735 from trunk, the compiled hex for download is 80kb, just looking for a pointer on why this is so? Any help would be appreciated. :)

use the gcc from the arduino ide.
it's older and makes smaller code.
