Therefore, 8080 is used to refer to the MCU-LCD screen in many documents. It can be mainly divided into 8080 mode and 6800 mode, and the difference between the two is mainly the timing. There are 8 bits, 9 bits, 16 bits, 18 bits, and 24 bits for data bit transfer. Connections are divided into: CS/, RS (register selection), RD/, WR/, and data lines. The advantages are: the control is simple and convenient, no clock and synchronization signals are required. The disadvantage is: it consumes GRAM, so it is difficult to achieve a large screen (above 3.8). For LCM with MCU interface, the internal chip is called LCD driver. The main function is to transform the data/command sent by the host into the RGB data of each pixel, so that it can be displayed on the screen. This process does not require point, line, frame clocks.
The LCD Driver IC of the MCU interface is equipped with GRAM. As a co-processor of the MCU, it accepts the Command/Data sent by the MCU and can work relatively independently. Pay attention to, the internal chip of LCD Module (LCM) is called the LCD driver. The main function is to transform the data/commands sent by the host computer into the RGB data of each pixel, so that it can be displayed on the screen. This process also does not require point, line, frame clocks.
