As the clock line goes HIGH, the 8-bit * data is presented on the port lines after it has been acknowledged by the * PCF8574/74A. [...] The master can then send a STOP or ReSTART condition * or continue sending data. The number of data bytes that can be sent * successively is not limited and the previous data is overwritten every * time a data byte has been sent and acknowledged." * * This driver takes advantage of this by sending multiple data bytes in succession * within a single I2C transmission. With a fast clock rate of 400kHz, the time * between successive updates of the PCF8574 outputs will be at least 2.5us. With * the default clock rate of 100kHz the time between updates will be at least 10us. * * The LCD controller HD44780, according to its datasheet, needs nominally 37us * (up to 50us) to execute a command (i.e. write to gdram, reposition, etc.). Each * command is sent in a separate I2C transmission here. The time taken to end a * transmission and start another one is a stop bit, a start bit, 8 address bits, * an ack, 8 data bits and another ack; this is at least 20 bits, i.e. >50us * at 400kHz and >200us at 100kHz. Therefore, we don't need additional delay. * * Similarly, the Enable must be set/reset for at least 450ns. This is * well within the I2C clock cycle time of 2.5us at 400kHz. Data is clocked in * to the HD44780 on the trailing edge of the Enable pin, so we set the Enable * as we present the data, then in the next byte we reset Enable without changing * the data. */ // write either command or data (8 bits) to the HD44780 LCD controller as // a single I2C transmission. void LiquidCrystal_I2C::send(uint8_t value, uint8_t mode) { mode |= _backlightval; uint8_t highnib = (((value >> 4) & 0x0f) << BACKPACK_DATA_BITS) | mode; uint8_t lownib = ((value & 0x0f) << BACKPACK_DATA_BITS) | mode; // Send both nibbles uint8_t len = 0; outputBuffer[len++] = highnib|En; outputBuffer[len++] = highnib; outputBuffer[len++] = lownib|En; outputBuffer[len++] = lownib; I2CManager.write(_Addr, outputBuffer, len); // Write command synchronously } // write 4 data bits to the HD44780 LCD controller. void LiquidCrystal_I2C::write4bits(uint8_t value) { uint8_t _data = ((value & 0x0f) << BACKPACK_DATA_BITS) | _backlightval; // Enable must be set/reset for at least 450ns.
