8.7 Display RAM
8.8 Command decoder
The PCF8579 contains a 32
is divided into 4 banks of 40 bytes (4
transferred to or from the RAM via the I
The addressing mechanism for the display RAM is realized using the data pointer. This
allows an individual data byte or a series of data bytes to be written into, or read from, the
display RAM, controlled by commands sent on the I
The storage and retrieval of display data is dependent on the content of the subaddress
counter. Storage and retrieval take place only when the contents of the subaddress
counter matches with the hardware subaddress at pins A0, A1, A2 and A3.
The command decoder identifies command bytes that arrive on the I
The five commands available to the PCF8579 are defined in
Table 6.
The most-significant bit of a command is the continuation bit C (see
