General Description
gray scale display. It displays 4-level gray scale
output when HT1647 drives TN-type,
STN-type LCDs. It displays four color output
when HT1647 drives ECB-type. HT1647 uses
PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) technique. The
software configuration feature of the HT1647
make it suitable for multiple LCD applications
including LCD modules and display subsystems. Only six lines (CS, WR, DB0~DB3) are
required for the interface between the host controller and the HT1647. The HT164X series
have many kinds of products that match various applications.
HT1647 is a peripheral device specially designed for I/O type mC used to expand the display capability. The max. display segment of
the device are 1024 patterns (64 segments and
16 commons). It also supports four data bits interface, buzzer sound, Watchdog Timer or time
base timer functions. The HT1647 is a memory
mapping and multi-function LCD controller.
Since the HT1647 can control ECB-type (Electrically Controlled Birefringence) LCDs in addition to current TN-type (Twisted Nematic) or
STN-type (Super Twisted Nematic) LCDs, it
can support 4-color display as well as 4-level

CS
I/O
Description
I
Chip selection input with pull-high resistor. When the CS is
logic high, the data and command read from or write to the
HT1647 are disabled. The serial interface circuit is also reset.
But if the CS is at a logic low level and is input to the CS pad, the
data and command transmission between the host controller
and the HT1647 are all enabled.
24
RD
I
READ clock input with pull-high resistor. Data in the RAM of
the HT1647 are clocked out on the rising edge of the RD signal.
The clocked out data will appear on the data line. The host controller can use the next falling edge to latch the clocked out data.
25
WR
I
WRITE clock input with pull-high resistor. Data on the DATA
line are latched into the HT1647 on the rising edge of the WR
signal.

O
The OSCI and OSCO pads are connected to a 32.768kHz crystal
in order to generate a system clock. If the system clock comes
from an external clock source, the external clock source should
be connected to the OSCI pad. But if an on-chip RC oscillator is
selected instead, the OSCI and OSCO pads can be left open.

Functional Description
System oscillator
The LCD OFF command is used to turn the
LCD bias generator off. After the LCD bias generator switches off by issuing the LCD OFF
command, using the SYS DIS command reduces power consumption, serving as a system
power down command. But if the external clock
source is chosen as the system clock, using the
SYS DIS command can neither turn the oscillator off nor carry out the power down mode. The
crystal oscillator option can be applied to connect an external frequency source of 32kHz to
the OSCI pin. In this case, the system fails to
enter the power down mode, similar to the case
in the external 32kHz clock source operation.
At the initial system power on, the HT1647 is at
the SYS DIS state.
The HT1647 system clock is used to generate
the time base/Watchdog Timer (WDT) clock frequency, LCD driving clock, and tone frequency.
The source of the clock may be from an on-chip
RC oscillator (32kHz), a crystal oscillator
(32.768kHz), or an external 32kHz clock by the
S/W setting. The configuration of the system oscillator is as shown. After the SYS DIS command is executed, the system clock will stop
and the LCD bias generator will turn off. That
command is, however, available only for the
on-chip RC oscillator or for the crystal oscillator. Once the system clock stops, the LCD display will become blank, and the time base/WDT
loses its function as well.

Gray scale level decision
Frame frequency
HT1647 uses PWM technique to provide 4-level
gray scale display. Two bits of RAM data code
((D3, D2) or (D1, D0)) decide one pixel level of
LCDs, level 1~level 4 dividedly. Every level
must be defined as one kind of gray scale by PWM
data (namely B4~B0) previously.
HT1647 provides two kinds frame frequency option by command code, 89Hz and 170Hz respectively. FRAME 89Hz provides 89Hz frame
frequency and active segment signal width can be
divided into 24 sections concurrently. FRAME
170Hz provides 170Hz frame frequency and active segment signal width can be divided into 13
sections concurrently. The 24 sections display a
particularly gray scale more than the 13 sections
by PWM data. The default is FRAME 89Hz.

4K and TONE 2K commands set the tone frequency to 4kHz and 2kHz, respectively. The
tone output can be turned off by invoking the
TONE OFF command. The tone outputs,
namely BZ and BZ, are a pair of differential
driving outputs used to drive a piezo buzzer.
Once the system is disabled or the tone output
is inhibited, the BZ and the BZ outputs will remain at low level.
Buzzer tone output
A simple tone generator is implemented in the
HT1647. The tone generator can output a pair
of differential driving signals on the BZ and BZ
which are used to generate a single tone.
By executing the TONE 4K and TONE 2K commands there are two tone frequency outputs

Bias generator
The HT1647 bias voltage belong to internal resistor type. It provides two kinds of bias option
named 1/5 bias and 1/4 bias respectively. It is
recommeaded to select 1/5 bias to fit TN-type,
STN-type LCDs and select 1/4 bias to fit
ECB-type LCDs. It also provides three kinds of
bias current option by programming to suitably
drive LCD panel. The three kinds of bias current are large, middle, and small, respectively.
Usually, large panel LCD can be excellently displayed by large bias current. Relatively, it consumes large current when LCD ON command is
used. Small bias current provides low power
consumption during on condition when the
LCD is normally displayed. The following are
the reference value table.
If successive commands have been issued, the
command mode ID can be omitted. While the
system is operating in the non-successive command or the non-successive address data mode,
the CS pin should be set to ²1² and the previous
operation mode will also be reset. The CS pin
returns to ²0², so a new operation mode ID
should be issued first.

in the RAM are clocked out on the falling edge of
the RD signal, and the clocked out data will then
appear on the DB0~DB3 lines. It is recommended
that the host controller read in correct data during the interval between the rising edge and the
next falling edge of the RD signal. The WR line is
the WRITE clock input. The data, address, and
command on the DB0~DB3 lines are all clocked
into the HT1647 on the rising edge of the WR signal. There is an optional IRQ line to be used as an
interface between the host controller and the
HT1647. The IRQ pin can be selected as a timer
output or a WDT overflow flag output by the S/W
setting. The host controller can perform the time
base or the WDT function by connecting with the
IRQ pin of the HT1647.
Interfacing
Only six lines are required to interface with the
HT1647. The CS line is used to initialize the serial interface circuit and to terminate the communication between the host controller and the
HT1647. If the CS pin is set to 1, the data and
command issued between the host controller and
the HT1647 are first disabled and then initialized. Before issuing a mode command or mode
switching, a high level pulse is required to initialize the serial interface of the HT1647. The
DB0~DB3 are the 4-bit parallel data input/output lines. Data to be read or written or commands
to be written have to pass through the DB0~DB3
lines. The RD line is the READ clock input. Data

*Note:
The connection of IRQ and RD pin can be selected depending on the mC.
The voltage applied to VLCD pin must be lower than VDD.
Adjust VR to fit LCD display, at VDD=5V, VLCD=4V, VR=15kW ± 20%.
It is recommended to select 1/5 bias to fit TN-type, STN-type LCDs and select 1/4 bias to fitm
ECB-type LCDs.
Adjust R (external pull high resistance) to fit user¢s time base clock.

A8~A0 : RAM address
D3~D0 : RAM data
B4~B0 : PWM data
D/C : Data/Command mode
Def. : Power-on reset default
All the bold forms, namely 1 1 0, 1 0 1, and 1 0 0, are mode commands. Of these, 1 0 0 indicates
the command mode ID. If successive commands have been issued, the command mode ID except for the first command will be omitted. The source of the tone frequency and of the time
base/WDT clock frequency can be derived from an on-chip 32kHz RC oscillator, a 32.768kHz
crystal oscillator, or an external 32kHz clock. Calculation of the frequency is based on the system frequency sources as stated above. It is recommended that the host controller should initialize the HT1647 after power-on reset, for power on reset may fail, which in turn leads to the
malfunctioning of the HT1647.
