| simon | 0:edfb85c53631 | 30 | * ============== |
| simon | 0:edfb85c53631 | 31 | * |
| simon | 0:edfb85c53631 | 32 | * After attaching the supply voltage/after a reset, the display needs to be brought in to a defined state |
| simon | 0:edfb85c53631 | 33 | * |
| simon | 0:edfb85c53631 | 34 | * - wait approximately 15 ms so the display is ready to execute commands |
| simon | 0:edfb85c53631 | 35 | * - Execute the command 0x30 ("Display Settings") three times (wait 1,64ms after each command, the busy flag cannot be queried now). |
| simon | 0:edfb85c53631 | 36 | * - The display is in 8 bit mode, so if you have only connected 4 data pins you should only transmit the higher nibble of each command. |
| simon | 0:edfb85c53631 | 37 | * - If you want to use the 4 bit mode, now you can execute the command to switch over to this mode now. |
| simon | 0:edfb85c53631 | 38 | * - Execute the "clear display" command |
| simon | 0:edfb85c53631 | 39 | * |
| simon | 0:edfb85c53631 | 40 | * Timing |
| simon | 0:edfb85c53631 | 41 | * ====== |
| simon | 0:edfb85c53631 | 42 | * |
| simon | 0:edfb85c53631 | 43 | * Nearly all commands transmitted to the display need 40us for execution. |
| simon | 0:edfb85c53631 | 44 | * Exceptions are the commands "Clear Display and Reset" and "Set Cursor to Start Position" |
| simon | 0:edfb85c53631 | 45 | * These commands need 1.64ms for execution. These timings are valid for all displays working with an |
| simon | 0:edfb85c53631 | 46 | * internal clock of 250kHz. But I do not know any displays that use other frequencies. Any time you |
| simon | 0:edfb85c53631 | 47 | * can use the busy flag to test if the display is ready to accept the next command. |
| simon | 0:edfb85c53631 | 48 | * |
| simon | 0:edfb85c53631 | 49 | * _e is kept high apart from calling clock |
| simon | 0:edfb85c53631 | 50 | * _rw is kept 0 (write) apart from actions that uyse it differently |
| simon | 0:edfb85c53631 | 51 | * _rs is set by the data/command writes |
