4.4.1 Dot-Matrix LCD

The EA DOGS102W-6 is a dot-matrix LCD with a resolution of 102x64 pixels. The LCD has a built-in back-light driver that can be controlled by a PWM signal from the MSP430F5529, pin P7.6. The MSP430F5529 communicates with the EA DOGS102W-6 through an SPI-like communication protocol. To supplement the limited set of instructions and functionalities provided by the on-chip LCD driver, an LCD driver has been developed for the MSP430F5529 to support additional functionalities such as font set and graphical utilities. More information on the LCD can be obtained from the manufacturer's data sheet.
