◆ pcd8544_init()

int pcd8544_init ( pcd8544_t dev,
spi_t  spi,
gpio_t  cs,
gpio_t  reset,
gpio_t  mode 
)

Initialize the given display.

Parameters
[in]devdevice descriptor of display to use
[in]spiSPI bus the display is connected to
[in]csGPIO pin that is connected to the CS pin
[in]resetGPIO pin that is connected to the RESET pin
[in]modeGPIO pin that is connected to the MODE pin
Returns
0 on success
<0 on error

◆ pcd8544_invert()

void pcd8544_invert ( pcd8544_t dev)

◆ pcd8544_set_bias()

void pcd8544_set_bias ( const pcd8544_t dev,
uint8_t  bias 
)

Set the internal BIAS for the given display.

Note
Look at the datasheet for more information
Parameters

void pcd8544_set_contrast ( const pcd8544_t dev,
uint8_t  contrast 
)

Set the contrast for the given display.

Note
A contrast value of 45 yields good results for 3V3
Parameters
[in]devdisplay device descriptor
[in]contrasttargeted contrast value [0 - 127]

◆ pcd8544_set_tempcoef()

void pcd8544_set_tempcoef ( const pcd8544_t dev,

The image must be given as a char array with 504 elements. Each bit in the array represents one pixel on the display. Each byte in the array contains 8 stacked pixels, from top to bottom. So byte[0] contains the pixels from (0,0) to (0,7), byte[1] (1,0) to (1,7) and byte[503] the pixels from (83,40) to (83,47) -> see the 'horizontal addressing' section in the datasheet.

Parameters
[in]devdevice descriptor of display to use
[in]xstarting column of the string [0 - 13]
[in]yrow to write the string to [0 - 5]
[in]strstring to write to the display
