System Oscillator
The timing for the internal logic and the LCD drive signals are generated by an internal oscillator. The System
Clock frequency (fSYS) determines the LCD frame frequency. During initial system power on the System Oscillator
will be in the stop state.
LCD Bias Generator
The full-scale LCD voltage (VOP) is obtained from (VLCD – VSS). The LCD voltage may be temperature
compensated externally through the Voltage supply to the VLCD pin.
Fractional LCD biasing voltages, known as 1/3 or 1/4 bias voltage, are obtained from an internal voltage divider of
four series resistors connected between VLCD and VSS. The centre resistor can be switched out of circuits to provide
a 1/3bias voltage level configuration.
