ultra Posted April 22, 2009 Report Posted April 22, 2009 i'm trying to get some displays working that futureman had shipped to me. they're noritake vfd's.they work fine with a core32, but with a pic core i get garbage characters on the screen.the datasheet link is at the bottom of this page:http://parts.digikey.com/1/parts/678533-module-vf-display-40x2-5mm-char-cu40025scpb-w6j.htmldoes anybody have an idea about why it would work with core32 but not the pic core?thanks,ultra
Wilba Posted April 22, 2009 Report Posted April 22, 2009 PIC18F4685 using 4-bit mode, Core32 using 8-bit mode?
ultra Posted April 22, 2009 Author Report Posted April 22, 2009 it's on a ucore so pinout is the same.it's a 18f452. not really sure how to switch modes, but stryd said to use a 452 because it supports 8 bit. i routed all the lcd traces for the ucore.
