ST7920cTile

Syntax:

  ST7920cTile ( word variable )

Explanation:

Tiles screen with a Chinese Symbol.

This required 2 bytes of data into DDRAM to display one 16x16 font from memory location A140H~D75FH are BIG5 code, A1A0H~F7FFH are GB code.

Example usage:

    Dim CTileValue as word
    cTileValue = (0xA140 * 256 ) + 0xA140
    ST7920cTile (CTileValue) 'tile the screen with a BIG5 character          ' <<< the ST7920cTile instruction

Key line: ST7920cTile (CTileValue) — repeats the 16-bit BIG5 character code 0xA140 across the entire screen; CTileValue must fall in the BIG5 range (0xA140-0xD75F) or the GB range (0xA1A0-0xF7FF) to select a valid Chinese character.
