Block Functions
(1) Address management circuit
The address management circuit converts addresses transferred from the system through A0 to A16 into addresses
compatible with the memory map of the built-in RAM. This function can be used to address up to 480 x 320 dots with
four of these LSIs, thus making it possible to configure a liquid crystal display system without difficulty. Moreover,
addresses 1FFF0H to 1FFFFH are allocated to the gray scale pallet register, making it possible to choose any 4 gray
scales from the 25-level pallet.
(2) Arbiter
The arbiter adjusts the contention between the RAM access from the system and the RAM read on the liquid-crystal
drive side.
(3) RAM
Static RAM (single port) of 240 by 160 by 2 bits
(4) Data bus control
This circuit controls the data transfer directions through the read/write from the system. It also performs an 8/16-bit
switch via the BMODE pin.
(5) Gray scale generation circuit
This circuit realizes the 25 levels by frame thinning out and pulse width modulation.
(6) Internal timing generation
Internal timing to each block is generated from /FRM and STB signals.
(7) CR oscillator
The CR oscillator generates the clock which will become a criterion of the frame frequency in master mode. 1/2592
of this oscillation becomes the frame frequency. For example, if the frame frequency is 70 Hz, the required oscillation
frequency is 181.44 kHz. As the CR oscillator has a built-in capacitor, adjust the required oscillation frequency with
an external resistor.
In slave mode, the oscillation is stopped.
(8) Liquid crystal timing generation
In master mode, /FRM (frame signal), STB (column drive signal strobe), and PULSE (25-gray-scale pallet pulse
modulation clock) are generated.
(9) Gray scale control
This circuit realizes a four-gray scale display.
(10) Data latch (1)
Reads and latches 240-pixel data from the RAM.
(11) Data latch (2)
Latches 240-pixel data synchronously with the STB signal.

(12) Level shifter
The level shifter converts from the operating voltage (3.3 V) of the internal circuit to the liquid-crystal drive circuit
and low driver interface voltage (5 V).
(13) DEC
Decodes the gray scale display data to make it compatible with the liquid-crystal drive voltages V
0
, V
1
and V
2
.
(14) Liquid crystal drive circuit
This circuit selects one of the liquid-crystal drive powers V
0
, V
1
, and V
2
, which are compatible with the gray scale
display data and the display OFF signal (/DOFF), to generate the liquid crystal applied voltage.
(15) Self diagnostic circuit
If the operation timing of the master chip and slave chip has deviated due to external noise, this circuit will detect
the problem and generate a total column/driver refresh signal.
