Udo Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Hi, I want to connect a simple 4 character 5x7 dot matrix display to the core. Problem: To read the datasheet and connect the right Pin's to the J15 core. For example: Display datasheet says: Pin4 = A1 Digit select Pin5 = A0 Digit select Furthermore, is there a Vcc on the core ?? I only knew Vdd and Vss. Display Name: Siemens DLG1414 =>Sorry there is no direct link to the datasheet possible. <= I put a PDF as attachment, but there is a link: Datasheet can be found at www.datasheedarchive.com Then search for "DLG1414" Then go to "Datasheet Search Results" Here you find : DLG1414 Siemens Semiconductors. Just click the PDF Icon to open the document. It will be great if someone could help me !!!siemens1414_display.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your 4 - digit Siemens DLG1414 display isn't compatible with the MBHP Core module. Read more ...the LCD Module / Supported LCD options in the uCApps section.

Udo Posted January 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Thanks for your message. I dont want to use this Siemens display as equal as the recomanded 2x20 LCD. I want to use this display for showing the value of a pot from the Analog IN Module. The value of a pot must be converted into a digital value (0-127). I just want to show this value on the display.

nILS Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Yes, it is possible to use this display, you'll have to write yourself a driver for it though (from a quick look at the datasheet that won't involve any voodoo). Vdd and Vcc are just different naming conventions for the same thing - Voltages. In the case of a core8 Vcc is 5V which is what the display needs, so you're all set on that front.
