title: Interfacing SPI LCD with Arduino
body: <p>I've got an LCD display which I'm trying to interface with an arduino. It uses SPI as its communication interface and there's an application note detailing the code to communicate with it. My problem is that I do not know how to transcribe the code from the app note to the C-based language of processing/Arduino.</p>
  
  <p>Is this a simple task that someone can help me with? I just need to be able to write two lines of text to this screen, nothing more.</p>

  <p>Thank you</p>
  
  <p>Additional Notes: The LCD screen has a ST7032 equivalent controller. I tried google for Arduino libraries for this controller but came up short</p>
