Product data sheet
16.14 User defined characters and symbols
Up to 16 user defined characters may be stored in the CGRAM. The content of the
CGRAM is lost during power-down, therefore the CGRAM has to be rewritten after every
power-on.
Below some source code is printed, which shows how a user defined character is defined
- in this case the euro currency sign. The display used is a 2 lines by 16 characters display
and the interface is the I
// Write a user defined character into the CGRAM
startI2C();
// PCF2119 slave address for write, SA0 is connected to Vdd
SendI2CAddress(0x76);
// MSB (Continuation bit Co) = 0, more than one byte may follow. Bit6, RS=0, next byte
// is command byte
i2c_write(0x00);
// 2 lines x 16, 1/18 duty, basic instruction set. Next byte will be another command.
i2c_write(0x24);
// Set CGRAM address to 0
i2c_write(0x40);
// Repeated Start condition
startI2C();
SendI2CAddress(0x76);
// RS=1, next byte is a data byte
i2c_write(0x40);
// Here the data bytes to define the character
// Behind the write commands the 5x8 dot matrix is shown, the 1 represents a on pixel.
// The Euro currency character can be recognized by the 0/1 pattern (see
i2c_write(0x06); // 00110
i2c_write(0x09); // 01001
i2c_write(0x08); // 01000
i2c_write(0x1E); // 11110
i2c_write(0x1E); // 11110
i2c_write(0x08); // 01000
i2c_write(0x09); // 01001
