On-Chip LCD Voltage Divider Disable
The integrated divider for the LCD voltages can be disabled by applying a high level
on the EN input (EN = 1).
Contrast Setting
The contrast may be adjusted in two ways:
An external resistor divider supplying the LCD voltage inputs VI1, VI1/3, VI2/3, with
the internal divider disabled as described in paragraph 4.
Applying an external LCD voltage on input V1, with the internal voltage divider
activated.
Oscillator
The on-chip oscillator circuit requires one external capacitor for operation. The
capacitor value is calculated as follows:
C = 7µF.1Hz/f
f = Required oscillator frequency
The multiplex rate is 64 times lower than the clock frequency.
LCD Character Mapping
The device has 16 address locations, A0 - A15 which correspond to VS[0] - VS[15].
Each location contains 4 bits, D[3] to D[0] which correspond to VR[3] - VR[0].
The mapping is detailed in the table below:
Note: A '1' switches the corresponding segment on.
* The address number and bit number of the byte is given, e.g. 1-0 is address 1 and
