Fig.17 The non-rolling Scroll mode (TF + SA + BF = 131) for LAO = 0.
6.2.24.3 Non-rolling Scroll mode
The RAM-to-display mapping for the non-rolling Scroll
mode when a 132 × 130 (columns × rows) display is
connected to the PCF8833 is illustrated in Fig.18. In this
case unused rows and columns are to be left open, for
instance row 0 and 131. If a 132 × 132 display is
connected to the PCF8833 the content of row 0 and 131
will be the same as the content which is displayed in row
1 and 130, respectively. By doing so the display data RAM
will have 2 rows in the background, whose content can be
updated when they are not displayed.
The non-rolling Scroll mode is activated when the Set
Entry Scroll Point is set; see Table Fig.37.
Figure 19 shows an example for when the PCF8833 is
working in the non-rolling Scroll mode
(TF + SA + BF = 132).
When the non-rolling Scroll mode is used the following
sequence can be applied.
• Fill the background memory
• After the desired time interval increment the scroll
address to SEP + n for a n-line step
• Keep filling the background memory and incrementing
scroll address (SEP) at regular intervals to obtain a
smooth scrolling.
The non-rolling Scroll mode is left when the normal Display
mode on (NORON) or the partial Display mode on
(PTLON) is selected.
