LCD CONTROL REGISTER (LCON)
A LCON is located in set 1, bank 1, at address E0H, and is read/write addressable using Register addressing
mode. It has the following control functions.
LCD duty and bias selection
LCD clock selection
LCD display control
Internal/External LCD dividing resistors selection
The LCON register is used to turn the LCD display on/off, to select duty and bias, to select LCD clock and control
the flow of the current to the dividing in the LCD circuit. Following a RESET, all LCON values are cleared to "0".
This turns off the LCD display, select 1/4 duty and 1/3 bias, select 64Hz for LCD clock, and Enable internal LCD
dividing resistors.
The LCD clock signal determines the frequency of COM signal scanning of each segment output. This is also
referred as the LCD frame frequency. Since the LCD clock is generated by watch timer clock (fw). The watch
timer should be enabled when the LCD display is turned on.
