PICASO, Graphics Controller 64-Pin TQFP

The PICASO embedded graphics controller from 4D Systems, can be used with a wide range of LCD and OLED displays. The controller uses the 4DGL graphics language supported by Extensive Virtual Engine (EVE) — a virtual processor with a comprehensive byte-code instruction set. Workshop 4 IDE is also available to support you with the development of your display applications — not exclusive to the PICASO, but for all 4D processors and modules. The software has four development environments — Designer, Serial, ViSi and ViSi Genie.

Recommended applications for the PICASO include home appliances, electronic gauges & meters, test & mesurement, general purpose instrumentation, GPS navigation systems, automotive system displays, medical instruments, security systems, gaming, aviation and HMI touch panels.
