a. Data Register (DR): Dris a register used for temporary Storage of the data read/write form/into DD
RAM and CG RAM.
b. Instruction Register (IR): is a register available for storing the instruction codes and address
information of display data (DD) RAM and character generator (CG) RAM.
c. BUSY FLAG (BF): When the Busy Flag is “1”,it shows that LCM is in internal operation and it can
not accept the next instruction.
d. Character Generator (CG) ROM: This ROM Generates character pattern from 8-bit character code
and provides 192 character patterns.
e. Character Generator (CG)RAM: This RAM allows the user to rewrite the character patterns freely
according to the program.
f.
Address Counter (AC): This address counter is used to give the address information of DD RAM
and CG RAM.
