Technical Note
●Function description
○ Command transfer method
1byte after Slave Address always becomes command input.
MSB (“command or data judge bit”) of command decide to next data is command or display data.
When set “command or data judge bit”=‘1’, next byte will be command.
When set “command or data judge bit”=‘0’, next byte data is display data.
S Slave address A 1 Command A 1 Command A 1 Command A 0 Command A Display Data … P
