 		 #149876 - Erik must always be right ...
Responding to: ???'s previous message

If you don't think the HD44780 is typical for character LCD's,

Oh, it's typical.

It was/is also 'typical' to power a uC with 5V would you make a generalization about that and make some poor sod burn his 3V3 chip?

Where does "answering when you ASS U ME that the case is 'typical'" stop and where are no such assumnptions allowed? The border should be absolute, but evidently you, who otherwise come across as quite rigid, have flexibility here.

By the way I use lots of CGRAM (Color Graphics RAM)



So ... you use lots of "Color Graphics RAM" on your LCD's used in conjunction with your MCU? I'd bet that those LCD's aren't typical.

You present this sort of argument often when you're trying to justify having taken an unsupportable position.

This must be what it looks like when Erik's back-pedalling.

guidance for LCD CGRAM ...            01/01/70 00:00      
   What guidance?            01/01/70 00:00      
   Did you mean this            01/01/70 00:00      
   reading?            01/01/70 00:00      
      reading?            01/01/70 00:00      
         how do you know?            01/01/70 00:00      
            Are you joking Malund , He says CGRAM            01/01/70 00:00      
               Write-Only Memory            01/01/70 00:00      
                  Write-Only Memory            01/01/70 00:00      
                     Possibility            01/01/70 00:00      
                     nope            01/01/70 00:00      
                  take another look at the datasheet            01/01/70 00:00      
                     NOBODY mentioned "a HD44780-style controller "            01/01/70 00:00      
                        So ... Erik ... what did you perceive?            01/01/70 00:00      
                           Oh, it\'s typical            01/01/70 00:00      
                              Erik must always be right ...            01/01/70 00:00      
                                 well so must Richard            01/01/70 00:00      
                     read more carefully!            01/01/70 00:00      
                        So ... what does "generally" mean to you?            01/01/70 00:00      
                           Generally            01/01/70 00:00      
                              loves them            01/01/70 00:00      
                                 Common LCD modules            01/01/70 00:00      
                                    BALONEY            01/01/70 00:00      
                                       I was trying to help            01/01/70 00:00      
                                          I only had a problem with the first part of 9)            01/01/70 00:00      
                                          the OP is better equipped to reply            01/01/70 00:00      
                              So what's your point?            01/01/70 00:00      
               Not (as far as access goes) a RAM, but a LCD modul            01/01/70 00:00      
                  In that case it may be            01/01/70 00:00      
                     HUH?            01/01/70 00:00      
                        Atleast            01/01/70 00:00      
                           especially...            01/01/70 00:00      
                     Wasn't that Erik's point?            01/01/70 00:00      
                        Neil just name the Write only Module ;-)            01/01/70 00:00      
   How about ...            01/01/70 00:00      
      Is that a Read Only Module            01/01/70 00:00      
         Yellow Light            01/01/70 00:00      
            Ap, please            01/01/70 00:00      
         Not module-specific            01/01/70 00:00      
            Not module-specific - But its a wonderful site            01/01/70 00:00      
               noritake costs            01/01/70 00:00      
         perhaps it is different from the "usual" interface            01/01/70 00:00
