Bias Control and Applied Voltage to LCD
Power Input Pins
Bias value
Voltage value
To the LCD power input pins (VL1–VL3), apply the voltage shown
VL3=VLCD
in Table 12 according to the bias value.
1/3 bias
VL2=2/3 VLCD
VL1=1/3 VLCD
Select a bias value by the bias control bit (bit 2 of the LCD mode
register).
VL3=VLCD
1/2 bias
VL2=VL1=1/2 VLCD
Common Pin and Duty Ratio Control
The common pins (COM0–COM3) to be used are determined by
duty ratio.
Note 1: VLCD is the maximum value of supplied voltage for the
LCD panel.
Select duty ratio by the duty ratio selection bits (bits 0 and 1 of the
LCD mode register).
