The Hitachi HD44780 LCD controller is an alphanumeric dot matrix liquid crystal display (LCD) controller developed by Hitachi in the 1980s. The character set of the controller includes ASCII characters, Japanese Kana characters, and some symbols in two 40 character lines.
LCD Smartie is open-source software for Microsoft Windows which allows a character LCD to be used as an auxiliary display device for a PC. Supported devices include displays based on the Hitachi HD44780 LCD controller, the Matrix Orbital Serial/USB LCD, and Palm OS devices (when used in conjunction with PalmOrb).
After searching for it in the data sheet, I discovered that the HD44780 has Pull-Up MOSFETs at DB0–DB7, RS, and R/ W: see pp. 48 and 51 (where the pull-up current is specified) as well as page 54 which shows the internal structure behind the pins. So DB0–DB3 should, if in 4-bit mode, left unconnected and will be read as 1s.
The LCD color filters are made with a photolithography process on large glass sheets that are later glued with other glass sheets containing a thin-film transistor (TFT) array, spacers and liquid crystal, creating several color LCDs that are then cut from one another and laminated with polarizer sheets. Red, green, blue and black colored ...
The following is a list of CMOS 4000-series digital logic integrated circuits.In 1968, the original 4000-series was introduced by RCA.Although more recent parts are considerably faster, the 4000 devices operate over a wide power supply range (3V to 18V recommended range for "B" series) and are well suited to unregulated battery powered applications and interfacing with sensitive analogue ...
The documentation for the notable example of a display driver IC given in this article, the Hitachi HD44780 LCD controller, calls it a "dot-matrix liquid crystal display controller and driver LSI". I assume that LSI means large scale integration, i.e., a type of integrated circuit.
NEC and Hitachi became early manufacturers of active-matrix addressed LCDs based on the IPS technology. This is a milestone for implementing large-screen LCDs having acceptable visual performance for flat-panel computer monitors and television screens. In 1996, Samsung developed the optical patterning technique that enables multi-domain LCD ...
