9.2 8080-series MCU parallel interface
The MCU can use one of following interfaces: 11-lines with 8-data parallel interface, 12-lines with 9-data parallel interface,
19-line with 16-data parallel interface or 21-lines with 18-data parallel interface. The chip-select CSX (active low)
enables/disables the parallel interface. RESX (active low) is an external reset signal. WRX is the parallel data write enable,
RDX is the parallel data read enable and D[17:0] is parallel data bus.
The LCD driver reads the data at the rising edge of WRX signal. The D/CX is the data/command flag. When D/CX=’1’,
D[17:0] bits is either display data or command parameter. When D/C=’0’, D[17:0] bits is command. The interface functions
of 8080-series parallel interface are given in following table.
