Hi
I am trying to interface PIC+MAX7219 Dot matrix Led Display.
but until now i can not build any library for 7219 display.:cry:
can anyone help me in building a library for PIC16f877a+MAX7219 Dot matrix Led Display.
 

Header:
Code:
#define CS														GPIOA, GPIO_Pin_2

#define MAX7219_NoOperation						0xA0
#define MAX7219_DecodeMode						0xA9
#define MAX7219_Intensity							0xAA
#define MAX7219_ScanLimit							0xAB
#define MAX7219_ShutDown							0xAC
#define MAX7219_DisplayTest						0xAF


typedef struct
{
	unsigned char DecodeMode;
	unsigned char Intensity;
	unsigned char ScanLimit;
	unsigned char ShutDown;
}MAX7219Init_TypeDef;

unsigned char MAX7219_Init (MAX7219Init_TypeDef * MAX7219_InitStruct);
void MAX7219_StructInit (MAX7219Init_TypeDef * MAX7219_InitStruct, unsigned char DigitsPerChip);
void MAX7219_DrawDigitSerial (unsigned char * Digit);
void MAX7219_DisplayTestVoid (unsigned char Enable);
void MAX7219_SetIntensity (unsigned char Intensity);
void MAX7219_Power (unsigned char PowerState);
void MAX7219_DrawCharSerial (unsigned char CHAR, const unsigned long (*FONT)[]);
and code:
Code:
#include "MAX7219.h"

#define MAX7219_SPI								SPI1		//interface definition
#define MAX7219_MaxCountValue			12			//maximum vaule of chips in serial to scan
