PIC DOGM ST7036 LCD

by Jinx

DOGM are a COG (chip on glass) style of LCD which is an attractive
alternative to the standard alphanumeric display. The space behind
the display and its transparency, as well as the functionality of the
controller, make options available to the user not possible with self-
contained modules

This page is here to demonstrate initialisation with a PIC, as much of
the material out there purporting to do this is confused, misleading
or just wrong

In this analyser shot of the initialisation sequence, note that Busy (D7) is useless
for interrogation. As soon as R/W goes low, Busy goes high, and remains there.

writec has two 100us delays that must be done. The completion time for writed
is quite short, around 20us, so a wait delay would probably be practical for most
software. If not, the user will have to make sure enough time has elapsed before
attempting to write more data




So far I've not been able to get a double-height display that looks like the one
in the datasheet. As far as I can tell, there is no central line of pixels to fill the
gap. All 16 rows are accounted for. If this is true, double height would be of
limited use. joecolquitt@clear.net.nz please if you find any missing pixels or have
the command values to display double height as seen in the datasheet. The double
height datasheet illustration, by the way, uses an undocumented "S" and is not
italicised, so make of that what you will




Serving suggestions


lit, red cellophane



lit, green wine bottle


lit, printed paper insert (transparency would be much better)


lit, pink/purple cellophane


backlight jig, using dimmable 3 x 1W white LEDs and opalescent acrylic

PCB

This PCB can be wired to suit any of the 6 options in the dog-me.pdf. It's the
pattern I've used for toner transfer. Make sure that the solder bridge gaps are
open after etching, or amend the diagram to suit your hard-wired configuration

EA have an Eagle library, ea.lbr, in their Downloads section

The cutout can be removed if you want the lighting to be further back, which
will help the light spread and improve evenness

Note that COG displays are fragile and trying to remove one from a PCB could
cause it to be damaged
