PD16666A
240-OUTPUT LCD ROW DRIVER
DESCRIPTION
The
P
PD16666A is a row (common) driver which contains a RAM capable of full-dot LCD display. With 240
outputs, this driver can be combined with a column (segment) driver
P
PD16661A which contains a RAM to display
VGA (640 by 480 dots), 1/2 VGA, or 1/4 VGA, etc. By combining it with the
P
PD16661A, the
P
PD16666A can provide
four gray levels by frame rate control.
With its built-in display RAM in the column driver, the driver kit can reduce current consumption, thus making it
most suitable for the display section of a PDA or portable terminal.

BLOCK FUNCTION
1. Liquid-crystal drive circuit
This circuit selects and outputs the level for liquid-crystal driving.
One of V
DD
, V
EE
, and V1 is selected by the output of the selection control circuit.
2. Selection control circuit
This circuit creates the signal which will select the level of the output signal, based on the output of the shift
register circuit and the driving level power selection signals L1 and L2
3. Bidirectional shift register circuit
This refers to the 120-bit bidirectional shift register circuit. The DIR signal can be used to switch over the shift
direction.
The data that has been entered from the FRMB terminal is shifted by the row drive signal strobe (STB).
4. Level shifter circuit
This circuit transforms the 5-V signals to the high-voltage signals for liquid-crystal driving.

DETAILS OF PIN FUNCTIONS
•
STB (input)
Refers to the input pin of the row drive strobe signal.
The bidirectional shift register is shifted at STB’s rising edge.
•
FRMB (input)
Refers to the input pin of the frame signal.
The shift register data is read at STB’s rising edge.
•
DIR (input)
Refers to the input pin of the drive output’s shift direction selection signal.
When the shift direction selection signal (DIR) is “L”, the shift data (selection signal) is shifted from the drive
output X
1
to the X
240
direction. When “H”, it is shifted from the X
240
to the X
1
direction.
•
DOFFB’ (input)
Refers to the input pin of the display OFF signal.
It is placed in the display OFF status (all outputs at V1) at the “L” level. In the mean time, it reads the frame signal
and returns to the normal display status at the “H” level.
•
L1 & L2 (input)
Refer to the input pins of the drive level power selection signal.
In the case of the liquid-crystal drive output, the two lines are selected simultaneously by the shift register. L1
selects the first line, and L2 the second line. Both lines select V
DD
at “H”, and V
EE
at “L”.
