ML9044-xxA/xxB
LCD Display Circuit (COM1 to COM17, SEG1 to SEG120, SSR and CSR)
The ML9044 has 17 common signal outputs and 120 segment signal outputs to display 24 characters (in the 1-line
display mode) or 48 characters (in the 2-line display mode).
The character pattern is converted into serial data and transferred in series through the shift register.
The transfer direction of serial data is determined by the SSR pin. The shift direction of common signals is
determined by the CSR pin. The following tables show the transfer and shift directions:

* Refer to the Expansion Instruction Codes section about the AS bit.
Signals to be input to the SSR and CSR pins should be determined at power-on and be kept unchanged.
