How to display string on Graphics LCD using 8051 Microcontroller (AT89C52)- (Part 44/45)
Simple operations with graphics LCD have been explained in the previous article. This article demonstrates the functionality of graphics LCD to display strings of [[wysiwyg_imageupload::]]different fonts. It explains the program to display strings in 8×8 and 5×7 fonts and also to scroll them vertically.The Graphics LCD used here is JHD12864E. This LCD is divided into two parts which are controlled by two different controllers. Each of these parts is divided into rows and columns. For basic instructions and programming procedure, refer to interfacing Graphics LCD with 8051.To display different font types, corresponding header files have been created. These header files contain the bitmap information of all alphabetic, numeric characters and symbols of a particular font. These header files are included into the main program. (The header file declarations are given in Code2).
How to interface Graphics LCD with 8051 Microcontroller (AT89C52)- (Part 43/45)
The graphical LCD used here is JHD12864E. This LCD is divided into two parts which are controlled by two different controllers. Each of these parts is divided into [[wysiwyg_imageupload::]]rows and columns.User friendly visual displays are used nowadays to keep track of working of any device. Such a visual display can be anything ranging from old Analog meters to new and smart Digital meters. In digital world to keep track of devices, LCDs are very commonly used. LCDs are easy to program and prove to be a better display unit as compared to other devices like seven segments and LED display units.The graphics LCDs are preferred over the character LCDs for those applications where both character and graphical representation are required. This article explains the basics of a 128×64 Graphics LCD and how it can be interfaced with AT89C52 to display basic shapes. The graphical LCD used here is JHD12864E. This LCD is divided into two parts which are controlled by two different controllers. Each of these parts is divided into rows and columns.To interface this LCD with microcontroller, two registers (Input and Output register) are provided in the LCD. These registers are selected by the combination of RS and RW signals.
