Check the IO levels on the LCD and the minimum output high level on the 2114. The odds are good that you can directly connect the LCD to the '14 directly with no pull-ups. For example: the VOH min level on the 2148 is V3.3-0.4V or 2.9V MINIMUM... This is the lowest output that the LPC puts out for a standard load high. (Usually it will be closer to 3.3V) I am using a Lumex display with a Samsung controller. It has a VIH min of 2.2. Any input above 2.2 is guaranteed to be an input. Therefore, there is 2.9 - 2.2, or .7V of margin on the high side input to the LCD. On LOW, there is usually less of an issue. The LPC will guarantee that a zero is below VOL max 0.4V while the Samsung LCD controller requires input to be less than 0.6V, leaving a .2V margin. As for LCD to LPC... Here the Samsung can output .9 x Vcc or 4.5V max, but guarantees to put out at least 2.4V. The 2.4 is plenty to swing the LPC to high - it requires 2.0V or more. But if the input goes above 3.3V, the "5V Tolerant" feature of the LPC kicks in. I don't know the details, but generally, you can think of this as a resistor in series with the input, limiting current, and a protection diode that dumps the excessive voltage to the 3.3 rail. So.. Bottom line, with this LCD controller, you just wire it up (making sure to power the LCD from 5V) Hope this helps.
