Hello

I am a terribly newbie here. I am here to learn graphic LCD as part of my hobby. Recently I have bought the 128x64 LCD module and I have tried to use one today. I understood that a datasheet states that a typical 4.5 voltage should be applied to the LCD module. So I test it in order to see it works by applying ground and 4.5V to Vss and Vdd respecively. Unfortunately I could not see anything from the 128x64 LCD display. I use KS0108 driver.

Have I missed out anything or need to add extra components in order to make it work?

Can you please kindly advise me how to bring my 128x64 LCD module alive?

Here is a datasheet - http://www.hebeiltd.com.cn/lcm.datasheet/ATM12864D.pdf

I don't fully understood with electronic stuff atm as I am quite new in electronic and microcontroller.

So far I have done:

Vdd = 5V
Vss = 0V

Vee = ??

Vo = ?? (Should I connect to with a variable resistor 10k??)

DB0-DB7 - connect to uC chip's port
R/W - connect to uC chip's port
D/I - connect to uC chip's port
E - connect to uC chip's port
CS1 and CS2 - connect to uC chip's port
RES - connect to uC chip's port
A - connect 8ohm resistor
K - connect to ground

I am still not sure about Vee and Vo.

I have some problems reading the datasheet (something about chinese character). But... Vee must be the voltage needed for contrast, and must be variable between Vdd-19 and Vdd+0,3. I think you need some negative voltage supply.

Your -VEE is the voltage needed to drive the LCD, and the VO is your contrast adjustment. According to your data sheet, you should have about -13.5vdc (specs say between -8 to -19) for your -VEE. You would connect your potentiometer for your contrast so that one pin goes to -VEE, center pin to VO, other pin to VDD.

Hey, have you ever tried http://www.datasheetpro.com/index.php ? It is a free Datasheet search site for Electronic Components and Semiconductors, integrated circuits, diodes, triacs, and other semiconductors.
Hope you will get what you want.
Good luck!

Hi

I have been learning to use 128x64 LCD module with AT89C51 and I have been using FastLCD for converting bmp into a table of bytes.

I have use the table in my codes and tried to compile it. I get the result - auto segment too large.

How to put all bytes in my codes in order to display picture on my 128x64 LCD module.

I don't understand it. What is the problem?
