faker 0:8e3468376286 14 *
faker 0:8e3468376286 15 * Initialisation
faker 0:8e3468376286 16 * ==============
faker 0:8e3468376286 17 *
faker 0:8e3468376286 18 * After attaching the supply voltage/after a reset, the display needs to be brought in to a defined state
faker 0:8e3468376286 19 *
faker 0:8e3468376286 20 * - wait approximately 15 ms so the display is ready to execute commands
faker 0:8e3468376286 21 * - Execute the command 0x30 ("Display Settings") three times (wait 1,64ms after each command, the busy flag cannot be queried now).
faker 0:8e3468376286 22 * - The display is in 8 bit mode, so if you have only connected 4 data pins you should only transmit the higher nibble of each command.
faker 0:8e3468376286 23 * - If you want to use the 4 bit mode, now you can execute the command to switch over to this mode now.
faker 0:8e3468376286 24 * - Execute the "clear display" command
faker 0:8e3468376286 25 *
faker 0:8e3468376286 26 * Timing
faker 0:8e3468376286 27 * ======
faker 0:8e3468376286 28 *
faker 0:8e3468376286 29 * Nearly all commands transmitted to the display need 40us for execution.
faker 0:8e3468376286 30 * Exceptions are the commands "Clear Display and Reset" and "Set Cursor to Start Position"
faker 0:8e3468376286 31 * These commands need 1.64ms for execution. These timings are valid for all displays working with an
faker 0:8e3468376286 32 * internal clock of 250kHz. But I do not know any displays that use other frequencies. Any time you
faker 0:8e3468376286 33 * can use the busy flag to test if the display is ready to accept the next command.
faker 0:8e3468376286 34 *
faker 0:8e3468376286 35 * _e is kept high apart from calling clock
faker 0:8e3468376286 36 * _rw is kept 0 (write) apart from actions that uyse it differently
faker 0:8e3468376286 37 * _rs is set by the data/command writes
