[chbot] Parallel sequential memory

[Robin Gilks]

Does such a beast exist as a stand-alone item?

The interface to a TFT controller such as ILI9486, which contains  over
300k of RAM, is a simple 16 bit parallel data/command bus, a data/command
select line, read/write lines and a reset.

LCD controllers are really fast (easily running up to 50Mbyte/s) and apart
from the 1000-2000 pins for the display matrix would only require 20 or so
lines from a micro. Data is written to a rectangle that is define as a
command over the 16 bit bus and then all read/write operations are
sequential with an auto-increment inside the chip to each address within
the bounds of the rectangle.

Sounds like a great storage device for streaming data on a micro.

So where can I get one from?
