EB005 LCD Board Block Diagram * Click EB005-00-2 for the datasheet. * The male D-type connector fits into the Female connector of one of the ports of an upstream board. * An LCD actually has its own microcontroller on it that takes care of all of the LCD functions. * All we need to do is send data or instructions to the LCD * Data is sent over the 4 data pins * Instructions like 'shift left' are also sent over the same 4 data pins * The RS pin 'tells' the LCD whether you are sending Data or Instructions. * The enable pin is active low and allows you to select several LCD's that are on the same data and RS lines. * Flowcode takes care of all of the driving issues for you. * For normal usage, leave the jumpers in the default position. * If you put them in the patch position, you can apply your own wiring system. * BE AWARE of the fact that the timing of the data that sent to the LCD is quite critical. It is best to use an LCD in combination with a crystal in the PICmicro. (:nl:)(:table style="clear:both":)
