A86: how writing to the lcd works
i have a question which could be considered a hardware question, but you asm
hopefully can answer it as it deals somewhat with asm...
ok so the graphics port points to the area of mem where the image that will
be on the screen is stored. Am i actually writing right to the lcd
hardware. can anyone tell me how the data in the area of mem pointed to by
the graphics port gets to the lcd.
the lcd is 128 x 64 pixels = 1024 bytes ... 8192 bits or 8192 possible place
that can be turned on or off...
so inside from between somewhere and the lcd there are 128 wires
across....how does it do the 64 down....
the main thing i need to know is this a software process or a hardware
process to organize and take and put the right data from mem to send the
right electrons up the 128 wires to the right height.
if this is a software process...does anyone know where in the rom this is.
if not could someone explain how this does work.
it will have asm implications for a project i'm doing...if i can figure it
out...
new lcd....
thank you for yer time
