This is the second article about this board.
The first part is here.
The code here is not actually a message board. It only demonstrates the principle of image rendering.
It may be usable for test purposes.
The image is hardcoded into the program memory. It is loaded from the program memory into the RAM and is transferred to the display in several cycles.
This scheme is good to check if the basic hardware is working – the PIC is started, shift registers are controlled correctly and so on.
In the real device I used the cheapest transistors I could find.
In the real device I did not use resistors R11-R26 and especially R7-R10.
R11-R26 may make sense, because I really saw some flickering in unconnected rows that could be caused by unstable transistor’s condition when its base is connected only to high-impedance latch output. So, these resistors close column’s transistors by default..
But R7-R10 is demand of Proteus. It can’t calculate this scheme if you do not give him these resistors or if their value will be over 21k.
Actually, 21k is unstable too.
