I am looking for a microcontroller with dot matrix lcd on aboard. The reason that I am looking for this combination for the low power consumption. The type of the LCD matricx that I am intrested is 32 by
I am also intrested to know about a Dot Matrix LCD driver that consumes very low power.
There is probably no MCU that would have the driver onboard simply because of the amount of pins it takes to interface with a 32x64 matrix (plus do any useful job that requires I/O). However, there are plenty specialized controllers, including low power CMOS, that can be interfaced with an MCU via 4 or 8 pins. Simple googling for "matrix LCD driver" returns 15K+ results, so you'll get a few to choose from.

I missed the original request however, microchip has a PIC16 and a PIC18f series chip with an onboard controller. I would have used the 18F version in one of my last projects if it had been released yet. TI 430 series also has a chip.
Neither of these are made to control a huge display.
