Vous souvenez-vous du premier ordinateur le plus célèbre, le légendaire Altair 8800 , qui était programmé en actionnant des interrupteurs affichant de petites lumières ?
Le La carte Click Board™ 8800 Retro est une carte complémentaire compacte qui simplifie le contrôle de plusieurs LED. Cette carte comprend le pilote LED compact AS1115 pour un écran d'affichage 8x8 programmé via une interface I2C 2 fils compatible d'ASM-AG. L'AS1115 comprend un décodeur BCD code-B/HEX intégré, un circuit de balayage multiplex, des pilotes de segment et d'affichage et une mémoire 64 bits. La mémoire interne stocke les paramètres du registre à décalage, éliminant ainsi le besoin de reprogrammation continue de l'appareil. Toutes les sorties de l'AS1115 peuvent être configurées pour la relecture des touches, où l'état du commutateur à clé est obtenu par interrogation de 64 touches maximum, tandis que 16 touches peuvent être utilisées pour déclencher une interruption. Cette carte Click Board™ convient aux écrans d'interface utilisateur à sept segments ou à matrice de points et à d'autres applications de produits électroménagers ou électroniques personnelles.
Le Click Board 8800 Retro™ est pris en charge par une bibliothèque compatible mikroSDK, qui comprend des fonctions qui simplifient le développement logiciel. Cette Click Board™ est un produit entièrement testé, prêt à être utilisé sur un système équipé du socket mikroBUS™.
How Does The 8800 Retro Click Board™ Work?
The 8800 Retro Click Board™ as its foundation uses the AS1115, a compact dot-matrix 8x8 LED driver from AMS-AG. It includes a 4-bit PWM for each segment and only one resistor for LED current adjustment (LED brightness). The AS1115 consists of an integrated BCD code-B/HEX decoder, multiplex scan circuitry, segment and display drivers, and 64-bit memory. Internal memory stores the shift register settings, eliminating the need for continuous device reprogramming. That's why this board is ideal for seven-segment or dot matrix user-interface displays and other white goods or personal electronic applications.
The LED columns have common cathodes connected to the digit-drive lines, where each of the 64 LEDs can be addressed separately. On initial Power-Up, the AS1115 registers are reset to their default values, the display is blanked, and the device goes into Shutdown mode. At this time, all registers should be programmed for Normal operation. The AS1115 features a low Shutdown current of typically 200nA and an operational current of typically 350μA.
8800 Retro Click communicates with MCU using standard I2C 2-Wire interface, with a clock frequency up to 1MHz in the Fast Mode Plus. In addition, the AS1115 can read back 16 buttons and offers a detailed short/open LED error diagnostic. Therefore, to get a valid readback of buttons, it is recommended to read out the keyscan registers immediately after the IRQ interrupt pin, available on the INT pin of the mikroBUS™ socket, is triggered. In addition to the number-digits programming, this Click board™ can also be reset by software.
The 8800 Retro Click Board™ can be operated only with a 3.3V logic voltage level. The board must perform appropriate logic voltage level conversion before use with MCUs with different logic levels. However, the Click board™ comes equipped with a library containing functions and an example code that can be used, as a reference, for further development.
