Hello,
I have connected a 40x4 LCD screen which uses a NT3881D driver chip to
the parallel port on my PC104-based Linux machine (I intend to develop
a client for LCDProc for my needs). The screen displays an (almost)
correct image, however I'm getting lots of mis-placed or not refreshed
areas so that the image is garbled. I've read the docs online and
have checked my voltage levels and they're all above 4.9V.
My question is:
+ Is this a rise-time issue? If so will pull-ups correct this?
+ Are there any other potential causes?
I have a picture of the type of output I'm getting which I can place
online or privately email if required.
Regards,
Chris Plant
