Can I use display controller HD44780 (KS0066U) instead of st7036?
For example - Display AC162.

Hello,
i think the answer is - yes. There is a statement in the datasheet for ST7036: Instruction compatible to ST7066U and KS0066U and HD44780. But currently the firmware & plugin assume that a 8x1 display is used.

Can you open Your protocol of exchange of data between computer and microcontroller by RS232. I want to connect my test board based on microcontroller PIC16F877A and display AC162 (2x16).

Hello, i hope it helps

Thank You very much for the presented materials. I hope this will not difficult

It's was not dificult! It is easy

Hello Sergey,

If I understood you correctly you made the code work for HD44780
Could you please share the code?

Thanks!

yes, but:

There is a statement in the datasheet for ST7036: Instruction compatible to ST7066U and KS0066U and HD44780

software from BadMojoX is already support this controller. HD44780=ST7036=ST7066U. My code is not support all plugin features. GoodLuck!

BadMojoX, can you share your source code for firmware? thanks

Hello,
i will post an updated version of the plug-in along with the avr source code soon. I just need a little time to check the sources and prepare them for publishing a little.
