Programming the IPD2545/7/8A
There are five registers within the IPD2545/7/8A display. Four of
these registers are used to hold the ASCII/attribute code of the
four display characters. The fifth register is the Control Word,
which is used to blink, blank, clear, or dim the entire display, or to
change the presentation (attributes) of individual characters.
Addressing
The addresses within the display device are shown below. Digit 0
is the rightmost digit of the display, while Digit 3 is on the left.
Although there is only one Control Word, it is duplicated at the four
address locations 0-3. Data can be read from any of these loca-
tions. When one of these locations is written to, all of them will
change together.
Bit D7 of any of the display digit locations is used to allow an
attribute to be assigned to that digit. The attributes are discussed
in the next section. If Bit D7 is set to a one, that character will be
displayed using the attribute. If bit D7 is cleared, the character will
display normally.

Control Word
When address bit A2 is taken low, the Control Word is accessed.
The same Control Word appears in all four of the lower address
spaces of the display. Through the Control Word, the display can
be cleared, the lamps can be tested, display brightness can be
selected, and attributes can be set for any characters which have
been loaded with their most significant bit (D7) set high.
Brightness (D0, D1): The state of the lower two bits of the Control
Word are used to set the brightness of the entire display, from 0%
to 100%. The table below shows the correspondence of these bits
to the brightness.
Attributes (D2–D4): Bits D2, D3, and D4 control the visual
attributes (i.e., blinking, alternate) of those display digits which
have been written with bit D7 set high. In order to use any of the
four attributes, the Cursor Enable bit (D4 in the Control Word) must
be set. When the Cursor Enable bit is set, and bit D7 in a character
location is set, the character will take on one of the following dis-
play attributes.
