    Well done Richard, Ioannis almost got it right - put a star up against your name and let's call it 6*.

    Regards,

    I agree... nicely done, Richard. I can't tell you how much I enjoy studying and learning from your code.

    I was inspired by how you compressed a 96 character 5x7 font table down to something like 288 words and I spent most of the day implementing something similar on an old 5110 demo program written in C for a 16F1823. With just basic INIT, CMD, DAT, and STR functions, the program now uses less than 500 words of program memory. I'm pretty geeked about it! Thank you...

    Take care. Have fun. Cheerful regards, Mike

    if you really want to geek it up


    changing the output routine to use the mssp module shaves another 10% off the code size
    and speeds the thing up by a factor of 10x

    din and clk need to be on sdo and sck

    this

    PAUSEUS 150
    SHiftOUT LCD_DIN,LCD_CLK,1,[LcdData]

    becomes

    PIR1.3=0
    SSP1BUF = LcdData
    WHILE !PIR1.3 : wend


    and this is added to init routine

    SSP1CON1=$21 ;$22,21,20 all work @32mhz 20 is fastest
    SSP1STAT=$40

    Yes, I already thought about using the SPI module. The current bit-bang driver uses 14 words of memory and runs at ~190-kb/s (with 8-MHz clock). An SPI driver and its init code shouldn't be any bigger. I hope to work on an SPI driver later today. I just need to refresh my memory on the SPI modes. Looks like you're using CKE = 1 and CKP = 0, yes?

    Implementing the 'packed' font table and extracting data was surprisingly simple, though I'm coding pretty close to the metal and the results are nothing as agile or elegant as your use of the 'readcode' function. Here's an excerpt, if you're interested;

    Code:

    Hi Richard,

    Just taking a quick look at your Include demo and I can only write 13 characters per line successfully... if 14 then the result is a wrap around and overwriting of the first char. Example below:


    Code:
    looper:
        LCDCLR
    ;    LCDSTR  6,0,"-Nokia-Demo-"      ; Line 0, position 6. 
        LCDSTR  0,0,"I wonder what happens if the string is large?"  ; = Rubbish on first line and "missing quote" error message. 
    ;    LCDSTR  0,0,"I wonder what?"    ; = "? wonder what" [14 chars]
        LCDSTR  0,0,"I wonder what"     ; = "I wonder what" [13 chars only]
        LCDC   0,4,"'"                  ; Line 4, position 0.
        LCDC   25,5,"8"                ; Line 5, position 25.
        PAUSE 1000
        GOTO looper
    I'll test more later today and let you know if I find anything else needing a tweak. Again, great job.

    Regards,
    Bill

    yes probably, but here is a new version with double size chr capability and mssp and font unpacking in asm [like in my ks0108 code]

    its not been texted on a pic18 , but its blisteringly fast on the 16f1847, and will fill screen fully

    thanks go to blll [wjsmarine] for donation of hardware for this project, enjoy

    That's impressive, Richard.

    Can you explain how your font table works and how you derived those values in each column please? What limits the size of the table one can create?

    I'd like to learn from it and maybe if I can get my head around the process find a way to smooth out the double size characters (particularly 0-9, the degree symbol and C) - I'm guessing you are working your magic to achieve double size by math so it probably means making a larger table to accommodate these.

    An indication of smooth characters is shown in the pic attached, made with the previous lookup table style, which consumed 4 normal sized chars' area per big one and 2 lines (as does yours) and also noting the degree C was formed as one big character. Apologies for the blurry image, not helped with the scratchy plastic over the LCD to protect the glass...

    Thanks for your patience and help.

    Regards,
    Bill

    I replace the _ chr with @ dw 642 , 9266 ,72 in my fonts to get a deg C chr
    achieve double size by math so it probably means making a larger table to accommodate these
    correct , I know of no realistic way to smooth the result , it has been tried.
    table size is only limited by the memory available.
    if you create a large font say 14x10 for digits it would not be an unreasonable size, but would need its own routines to unpack and display
    if you plot my font on graph paper its pretty obvious how it works, the pic 18 version is easier to disassemble

    I came up with the same solution , the freely available font creators [like the mikronta one] don't really
    convert the font to the most efficient format for pic's when codespace is an issue.
    although they can be a good starting point

    Nice job on the spreadsheet, Richard. I just finished modifying mine to format the packed font table output for either C or asm. Here's a sample;

    Code:
    	0x0000,	0x0000,	0x0000,	//  32	 ' '
    	0x0000,	0x2F80,	0x0000,	//  33	 '!'
    	0x0007,	0x0007,	0x0000,	//  34	 '"'
    	0x0A7F,	0x0A7F,	0x0A00,	//  35	 '#'
    	0x122A,	0x3FAA,	0x0900,	//  36	 '$'
    	0x1193,	0x0464,	0x3100,	//  37	 '%'
    	0x1B49,	0x2AA2,	0x2800,	//  38	 '&'
    	0x0005,	0x0180,	0x0000,	//  39	 '''
    	0x001C,	0x1141,	0x0000,	//  40	 '('
    	0x0041,	0x111C,	0x0000,	//  41	 ')'
    	0x0A08,	0x1F08,	0x0A00,	//  42	 '*'
    	0x0408,	0x1F08,	0x0400,	//  43	 '+'
    Code:
         dw	0x0000,	0x0000,	0x0000	;  32	 ' '
         dw	0x0000,	0x2F80,	0x0000	;  33	 '!'
         dw	0x0007,	0x0007,	0x0000	;  34	 '"'
         dw	0x0A7F,	0x0A7F,	0x0A00	;  35	 '#'
         dw	0x122A,	0x3FAA,	0x0900	;  36	 '$'
         dw	0x1193,	0x0464,	0x3100	;  37	 '%'
         dw	0x1B49,	0x2AA2,	0x2800	;  38	 '&'
         dw	0x0005,	0x0180,	0x0000	;  39	 '''
         dw	0x001C,	0x1141,	0x0000	;  40	 '('
         dw	0x0041,	0x111C,	0x0000	;  41	 ')'
         dw	0x0A08,	0x1F08,	0x0A00	;  42	 '*'
         dw	0x0408,	0x1F08,	0x0400	;  43	 '+'
    I also decided to render all 96 characters directly from the input table so that I can see at-a-glance which characters might need tweaking...

    Just finished the font render part of my spreadsheet. It renders directly from the unpacked 5-byte 'input' table. Change a byte in there and you'll see the changes immediately. Mind if I show it off, guys (see below)?

    Richard... Would you be interested in seeing my driver code for font tables with 2.5 word-per-character packing instead of 3 word-per-character packing? The new '2.5' font tables use 240 words of memory (down from 288 words) and my little single file ~225 line (non-PBP) demo program now weighs in at ~406 words total memory...

    yes please, I had considered doing that but could not find a method that preserved the gain
    my attempts used half the saved space up doing the unpacking

    First, here's how I'm packing font pattern data into 2-1/2 words within groups of 5 words;

    In the first part of my WrChar() routine I calculate the table address by first subtracting the font table offset (32) from the ASCII character value (32..127). Then I multiply the resulting font table index (0..95) by 2.5 and add the integer result (0..237) to the font table base address. In my case, I'm using a fixed 0x0400 address for the font table so I don't need to perform the addition. I simply stuff the 0..237 value directly into EEADRL and the hi byte of the font table address into EEADRH.

    In the other half of my WrChar() routine, if the font table index is even I print the 1st word hi & lo bytes, the 2nd word hi & lo bytes, and the 3rd word hi byte. If the font table index is odd I print the 1st word lo byte, the 2nd word hi & lo bytes, and the 3rd word hi & lo bytes. You'll notice the logic is relatively simple and unrolling the print loop to accommodate the logic doesn't seem to have incurred additional program overhead.

    The new demo program (attached below) is 50 words smaller than the old (3-word-per-character) program (406 words total) so it seems I've realized the full 48 word savings from the new packed font table format.

    I hope this example provides some useful ideas and I'm sorry I can't help with PBP...

    Have fun... Cheerful regards, Mike

    thanks mike , the concept works nicely

    xc8 version (393)+240 words , uses mssp1

    Nice to see an XC8 example excerpt...

    May I ask where I can find information for placing DW data in XC8 at an absolute address, please? I haven't found it so far, nor can I get your example working in a 16F1823 XC8 project...

    I'm also struggling with MCC (Microsoft Code Configurator)...

    May I ask where I can find information for placing DW data in XC8 at an absolute address
    all my knowledge came from google" xc8 psect" , i have not found a good reference yet
    the xc8 use rguide/manual is severely lacking in that respect

    key elements
    PSECT strings,class=CODE,abs,delta=2
    ORG 0x1f00

    my example uses an asm segment in a c include file, it may be better to place the data in an asm file and include that instead
    because i have terrible trouble getting "labels" to work properly my way. [ still learning]

    mcc is a splendid thing once you get the hang of it, for the chips it supports.
    once i have created the standalone project i use mcc to set the osc and create the main.c and mcc files
    then you can add the pins/hw modules

    a saner way is, and let the linker locate the font for you

    font .c file

    Code:
    #include <xc.h>
    #asm
    psect FONT_table,class=CODE,local,delta=2

    in wrChar()
    unsigned int dat, inx = addr;

    Hi Richard,

    Well done to you and Mike for continuing the thread, even though what you are documenting is so far above my head I'm dizzy...

    If I can jump in here I'd like to bring your attention to an undocumented feature of your Inc file I've just discovered when converting my previous code to run it. For various reasons, but mainly leading zero suppression, I insert a space but with your Inc file I get error messages e.g.

    Code:
    looper:
        LCDCLR
        bigtxt = 1     ; double size chrs
        LCDSTR 0,0,"Noki+12"
        LCDSTR 0,2,"345678@" 
        bigtxt = 0     ; normal size chrs
    '    LCDSTR 52,3,"Demo"
        LCDSTR 0,4,"With@MSSP xfer" 
    '    LCDSTR 0,5,"Dble Size Chrs"     
        LCDSTR 0,5," "  ; this doesn't compile - causes errors and warnings wherever used.

    When you have the time may I ask for this to be corrected?

    LCDSTR 0,5," "
    its a pbp problem

    " " is not a String pbp interprets a single chr as a byte , regardless of the quotes . and its not possible to fix it

    you can simply use

    LCDC " "
    or
    LCDC 0,5," "

    to print a single character


    have a look at this
    http://support.melabs.com/forum/picb...strtok-usercmd
    it has a rightjustify user command in it,


    eg to display a 3 digit field
    Code:
     arraywrite buff,[dec h,0]
        RJUSTBUFF  buff,3
        LCDSTR  36,0,BUFF

    Ah... Thank you for the PSECT search term. Got it. I also discovered that I could use a label in the font table and access that address in my code... Very exciting stuff (grin)...

    I still need to double-check and simulate my XC8 version but so far it uses 381 words (141 code + 240 font). I didn't use MCC (Microchip Code Configurator) so it's a single file, about 235 lines, including the font table (see below).

    MCC doesn't seem to support the MSSP module on my 16F1823 so I still need to consult the datasheet before I can implement the SPI driver.

    Cheerful regards, Mike, K8LH

    mssp is pretty easy


    SSP1CON1=0x21 ;$22,21,20 all work @32mhz 20 is fastest
    SSP1STAT=0x40
    sdo and sck pins set to dig o/p


    to transfer data
    PIR1.3=0
    SSP1BUF = data
    WHILE (!PIR1.3) ;

    tried your code on 16f1847 ,its not working

    It seems XC8 is placing my program code on top of my font table in the 0700h area of memory. More detective work (sigh)...

    Thanks for the MSSP/SPI info, Richard. I will get to that after tracking down the current problem...

    <added>

    If you get a chance, add the "ovrld" param' to the following line and tell me if that fixes the problem, please?

    Code:
       PSECT myFonts, class=CODE, abs, ovrld, space=0, delta=2
                                       ^^^^^

    ovrld,

    does not fix it
    even local too

    there is more wrong than just that , the putwreg function is getting called six times for the wrchar
    and only 5 times for the entire putstr call
    its a total bitch to debug with all that inline asm , the debugger just
    goes stupid

    putcmd looks fine on the logic analyser , it all goes pear shaped from then on

    Sorry, Richard (and gang). A bug at the very top of the putchar() routine was messing up the font table address. And yes, I know assembler is a PITA... I wish I could get a gratis copy of PBP...

    Corrected version attached (375 words total). I still need to dig out my old Nokia 5110 display and test this on real hardware. I also have a tiny 128x32 I2C OLED display and a tiny 128x64 SPI OLED display to play with sometime soon.

    Cheerful regards, Mike

    putstr still not working

    I think it should look like this, but it only works for the first call
    so I get "Re and then garbage

    Code:
     void putstr(const char *str)     // put 'ROM' strings
       {                     //
         while(*str) 
           wrchar(*str++);
       }                                //

    more oddly

    strcpy(buff,"eady");


    putstr(buff);

    works with my modified routine


    putstr("eady");
    crashes the show

    Yes, your putstr() routine is better...

    While debugging I've found XC8 is using the same memory location for local variables in both the wrchar() and putstr() functions. The wrchar@ascii variable is using 70h and the putstr@str pointer is using 70h and 71h. Is this a result of my heavy use of assembly code? That is, XC8 doesn't realize those local variables need to be unique? How do I get XC8 to use unique memory locations for those local variables?

    I think I prefer my take on this
    since:-
    the font is automatically located
    the pin/hw defines are in mcc ,therefore its simple to port to any chip that can read its own flash
    its easy to debug
    bigtext and inverted text are easily implemented
    its only 100 or so words bigger

    A great example. Thank you.

    Thank you very much for the pointers and help. It's been a fun experiment and I've learned a lot.

    and I finally figured out what I was doing wrong with asm psect labels

    Hi Richard,

    Thanks for the fix on the single char problem, it works well but I've found another problem...

    When I add DT Ints the big characters don't work, I tried with and without using mssp but same result.

    Also there's something strange taking place with the led backlight insomuch as I need to sprinkle port pin enable code immediately following any lcd write (with or without DT Ints). I tried changing LCD_LIGHT from A.0 to A.1 (while leaving it connected to A.0) with no difference - does the Inc file employ any commands for the light?

    Here's the edited code:

    Code:
    #CONFIG ; 16F1847.
            __config _CONFIG1, _FOSC_INTOSC & _WDTE_ON & _PWRTE_ON & _MCLRE_ON & _CP_OFF & _BOREN_OFF
            __config _CONFIG2, _PLLEN_OFF & _LVP_OFF
    #ENDCONFIG

    '    Old_Bits = New_Bits        ' Equalize the disturbance the pushbutton caused.
    @ INT_RETURN                   ; Exit accordingly.
    '    endif
    
    END
    Is the Inc file compatible with DT Ints?

    Regards,
    Bill
