The S1D13700F02 can display both text and graphics on an LCD panel. The S1D13700F02
allows layered text and graphics, scrolling of the display in any direction, and partitioning
of the display into multiple screens. It includes 32K bytes of embedded SRAM display
memory which is used to store text, character codes, and bit-mapped graphics. The
S1D13700F02 handles display controller functions including: transferring data from the
controlling microprocessor to the buffer memory, reading memory data, converting data to
display pixels, and generating timing signals for the LCD panel.
The S1D13700F02 is designed with an internal character generator which supports 160,
5x7 pixel characters in internal mask ROM (CGROM) and 64, 8x8 pixel characters in
character generator RAM (CGRAM). When the CGROM is not used, up to 256, 8x16 pixel
characters are supported in CGRAM.
