8080 Mode(SSD1963データシート抜粋)
The 8080 mode MCU interface consist of CS#, D/C#, RD#, WR#, D[23:0] and TE signals (Please refer toTable 6-1 for pin multiplexed with 6800 mode). This interface use WR# to define a write cycle and RD# forread cycle. If the WR# goes low when the CS# signal is low, the data or command will be latched into the system at the rising edge of WR#. Similarly, the read cycle will start when RD# goes low and end at the rising edge of RD#. (WR、RDの立ち上がりパルスでシステムに取り込み)The detailed timing will show in the chapter 13.2.
 
 
RSDC(D/C#)の由来

RS : Register select
DC : Data/Commamd

RS = 1 or RSDC = 1 : Data Mode
RS = 0 or RSDC = 0 : Command Mode

(参考) INT035での RSDCピンの名称 → Data/Command select
     RSDCは誰もが機能がわかりにくい名称と思うようです。 INT035ではData/Command selectが使われている。

A 16X2 LCD has two registers, namely, command and data. The register select is used to switch from one register to other. RS=0 for command register, whereas RS=1 for data register.

Command Register: The command register stores the command instructions given to the LCD. A command is an instruction given to LCD to do a predefined task. Examples like:

  • initializing it
  • clearing its screen
  • setting the cursor position
  • controlling display etc.

Processing for commands happens in the command register.

Data Register: The data register stores the data to be displayed on the LCD. The data is the ASCII value of the character to be displayed on the LCD. When we send data to LCD it goes to the data register and is processed there. When RS=1, data register is selected.

         

(例)
//PMP 16ビットパラレル送信関数		//8080 16bit parallel parallel
//RS:  RG13    // Definitions for RS pin PIC32MZ
#define DisplaySetCommand()         LATGbits.LATG13 = 0         //RS = 0
#define DisplaySetData()            LATGbits.LATG13 = 1         //RS = 1

//データ送信関数	//Data send function
void ys_WriteData(short data)
{
    DisplaySetData();           //RS = 1;
    ys_DeviceWrite(data);
}

//コマンド送信関数	//Command send function
void ys_WriteCommand(unsigned char cmd)
{
    DisplayEnable();            //CS = 0;
    DisplaySetCommand();        //RS = 0;
    ys_DeviceWrite(cmd) ;
    DisplayDisable();           //CS = 1;
