4.7.1 POST
Code
Display
Support for character-based LCD panel to display BIOS POST messages and other information.
Displays have an 8-bit parallel interface. Text for display is the BIOS Port 80 codes in the format:
"BIOS Code xx".
This section describes how the LCD character display support is implemented. With the exception
of the backlight power pins, the display connector is wired directly to the motherboard port GPIO
pins.
The logic in the CPLD is driven purely by software; there is no automatic generation of the interface
control signals. In this way, the use of the display is controlled exclusively by software (or BIOS).
The PWM signal from the CPLD requires an inverting low-pass filter in order to correctly drive the
contrast voltage to the display.
