C
Refers to the base-16 number system, which consists
of 16 unique symbols: the numbers 0 to 9 and the let-
ters A to F. For example, the decimal number 15 is
represented as F in the hexadecimal numbering sys-
tem. The hexadecimal system is useful because it can
represent every byte (8 bits) as two consecutive hex-
adecimal digits. It is easier for humans to read hex-
adecimal numbers than binary numbers.
Short for Inter-IC, a type of bus designed by Phillips
Semiconductors in the early 1980s, which is used to
connect integrated circuits (ICs). I
bus, which means that multiple chips can be connected
to the same bus and each one can act as a master by
initiating a data transfer.
A means by which two systems interact.
Liquid Crystal Display
This refers to the model number of the module.
The smallest individually controllable element of a
display.
Polymer Light Emitting Diode. Polymers are sub-
stances formed by a chemical reaction in which two
or more molecules combine to form larger molecules.
PLEDs are thin film displays that are created by sand-
wiching an undoped conjugated polymer between two
proper electrodes at a short distance. The polymer
emits light when exposed to electricity.
Pre-determined fonts which can be downloaded into
graphic liquid crystal displays.
A low-level object or operation from which higher-
level, more complex objects and operations can be
constructed. In graphics, primitives are basic elements,
such as lines, curves, and polygons, which you can
combine to create more complex graphical images.
Short for recommended standard-232C, a standard in-
terface approved by the Electronic Industries Associa-
tion (EIA) for connecting serial devices.
To view consecutive lines of data on the display screen.
The term scroll means that once the screen is full, each
new line appears at the bottom edge of the screen and
all other lines move up one position.
A number that is one of a series and is used for identi-
fication of the module.
A port, or interface, that can be used for serial commu-
nication, in which only 1 bit is transmitted at a time.
