Rev. 01 — 14 April 2010
Product data sheet
1. General description
The PCA85176 is a peripheral device which interfaces to almost any Liquid Crystal
Display (LCD)1 with low multiplex rates. It generates the drive signals for any static or
multiplexed LCD containing up to four backplanes and up to 40 segments. It can be easily
cascaded for larger LCD applications. The PCA85176 is compatible with most
microprocessors or microcontrollers and communicates via a two-line bidirectional
I2C-bus. Communication overheads are minimized by a display RAM with
auto-incremented addressing, by hardware subaddressing, and by display memory
switching (static and duplex drive modes).
AEC-Q100 compliant for automotive applications.

7. Functional description
The PCA85176 is a versatile peripheral device designed to interface any
microprocessor or microcontroller with a wide variety of LCDs. It can directly drive any
static or multiplexed LCD containing up to four backplanes and up to 40 segments.
The possible display configurations of the PCA85176 depend on the number of active
backplane outputs required. A selection of display configurations is shown in Table 4. All
of these configurations can be implemented in the typical system shown in Figure 4.

Typical system configuration
The host microprocessor or microcontroller maintains the 2-line I2C-bus communication
channel with the PCA85176. The internal oscillator is enabled by connecting
pin OSC to pin VSS. The appropriate biasing voltages for the multiplexed LCD waveforms
are generated internally. The only other connections required to complete the system are
the power supplies (VDD, VSS, and VLCD) and the LCD panel chosen for the application.

• Display is disabled
Remark: Do not transfer data on the I2C-bus for at least 1 ms after a power-on to allow
the reset action to complete.
7.2 LCD bias generator
Fractional LCD biasing voltages are obtained from an internal voltage divider of the three
series resistors connected between VLCD and VSS. The center resistor is bypassed by
switch if the 1⁄2 bias voltage level for the 1:2 multiplex configuration is selected.
7.3 LCD voltage selector
The LCD voltage selector coordinates the multiplexing of the LCD in accordance with the
selected LCD drive configuration. The operation of the voltage selector is controlled by the
mode-set command from the command decoder. The biasing configurations that apply to
the preferred modes of operation, together with the biasing characteristics as functions of
VLCD and the resulting discrimination ratios (D) are given in Table 5.

A practical value for VLCD is determined by equating Voff(RMS) with a defined LCD
threshold voltage (Vth), typically when the LCD exhibits approximately 10 % contrast. In
the static drive mode a suitable choice is VLCD > 3Vth.
Multiplex drive modes of 1:3 and 1:4 with 1⁄2 bias are possible but the discrimination and
hence the contrast ratios are smaller.

7.5 Oscillator
7.5.1 Internal clock
The internal logic of the PCA85176 and its LCD drive signals are timed either by its
internal oscillator or by an external clock. The internal oscillator is enabled by connecting
pin OSC to pin VSS. If the internal oscillator is used, the output from pin CLK can be used
as the clock signal for several PCA85176 in the system that are connected in cascade.
7.5.2 External clock
A clock signal must always be supplied to the device; removing the clock may freeze the
LCD in a DC state, which is not suitable for the liquid crystal.
7.6 Timing
The PCA85176 timing controls the internal data flow of the device. This includes the
transfer of display data from the display RAM to the display segment outputs. In cascaded
applications, the correct timing relationship between each PCA85176 in the system is
maintained by the synchronization signal at pin SYNC. The timing also generates the LCD
frame signal whose frequency is derived from the clock frequency. The frame signal
frequency is a fixed division of the clock frequency from either the internal or an external
clock:
f clk
f fr = ------24
7.7 Display register
The display register holds the display data while the corresponding multiplex signals are
generated.
7.8 Segment outputs
The LCD drive section includes 40 segment outputs S0 to S39 which should be
connected directly to the LCD. The segment output signals are generated in accordance
with the multiplexed backplane signals and with data residing in the display register. When
less than 40 segment outputs are required, the unused segment outputs should be left
open-circuit.
7.9 Backplane outputs
The LCD drive section includes four backplane outputs BP0 to BP3 which must be
connected directly to the LCD. The backplane output signals are generated in accordance
with the selected LCD drive mode. If less than four backplane outputs are required, the
unused outputs can be left open-circuit.
• In 1:3 multiplex drive mode, BP3 carries the same signal as BP1, therefore these two
adjacent outputs can be tied together to give enhanced drive capabilities.
• In 1:2 multiplex drive mode, BP0 and BP2, BP1 and BP3 all carry the same signals
and may also be paired to increase the drive capabilities.
• In static drive mode the same signal is carried by all four backplane outputs and they
can be connected in parallel for very high drive requirements.

7.10 Display RAM
The display RAM is a static 40 × 4-bit RAM which stores LCD data.
There is a one-to-one correspondence between
• the bits in the RAM bitmap and the LCD elements
• the RAM columns and the segment outputs
• the RAM rows and the backplane outputs.
A logic 1 in the RAM bitmap indicates the on-state of the corresponding LCD element;
similarly, a logic 0 indicates the off-state.
The display RAM bit map, Figure 10, shows the rows 0 to 3 which correspond with the
backplane outputs BP0 to BP3, and the columns 0 to 39 which correspond with the
segment outputs S0 to S39. In multiplexed LCD applications the segment data of the first,
second, third and fourth row of the display RAM are time-multiplexed with BP0, BP1, BP2,
and BP3 respectively.

The display RAM bitmap shows the direct relationship between the display RAM column and the
segment outputs; and between the bits in a RAM row and the backplane outputs.
Fig 10. Display RAM bit map
When display data is transmitted to the PCA85176 the display bytes received are stored
in the display RAM in accordance with the selected LCD drive mode. The data is stored as
it arrives and does not wait for an acknowledge cycle as with the commands. Depending
on the current multiplex drive mode, data is stored singularly, in pairs, triples or
quadruples. To illustrate the filling order, an example of a 7-segment numeric display
showing all drive modes is given in Figure 11; the RAM filling organization depicted
applies equally to other LCD types.

NXP Semiconductors
Universal LCD driver for low multiplex rates
The following applies to Figure 11:
• In static drive mode the eight transmitted data bits are placed in row 0 of eight
successive 4-bit RAM words.
• In 1:2 multiplex drive mode the eight transmitted data bits are placed in pairs into
row 0 and 1 of four successive 4-bit RAM words.
• In 1:3 multiplex drive mode the eight bits are placed in triples into row 0, 1, and 2 to
three successive 4-bit RAM words, with bit 3 of the third address left unchanged. It is
not recommended to use this bit in a display because of the difficult addressing. This
last bit may, if necessary, be controlled by an additional transfer to this address but
care should be taken to avoid overwriting adjacent data because always full bytes are
transmitted.
• In 1:4 multiplex drive mode, the eight transmitted data bits are placed in quadruples
into row 0, 1, 2, and 3 of two successive 4-bit RAM words.
7.11 Data pointer
The addressing mechanism for the display RAM is realized using the data pointer. This
allows the loading of an individual display data byte, or a series of display data bytes, into
any location of the display RAM. The sequence commences with the initialization of the
data pointer by the load-data-pointer command (see Table 11). Following this command,
an arriving data byte is stored at the display RAM address indicated by the data pointer.
The filling order is shown in Figure 11.
After each byte is stored, the content of the data pointer is automatically incremented by a
value dependent on the selected LCD drive mode:
•
•
•
•
In static drive mode by eight
In 1:2 multiplex drive mode by four
In 1:3 multiplex drive mode by three
In 1:4 multiplex drive mode by two
If an I2C-bus data access is terminated early then the state of the data pointer is unknown.
The data pointer should be re-written prior to further RAM accesses.
7.12 Subaddress counter
The storage of display data is determined by the contents of the subaddress counter.
Storage is allowed only when the content of the subaddress counter match with the
hardware subaddress applied to A0, A1, and A2. The subaddress counter value is defined
by the device-select command (see Table 12). If the content of the subaddress counter
and the hardware subaddress do not match then data storage is inhibited but the data
pointer is incremented as if data storage had taken place. The subaddress counter is also
incremented when the data pointer overflows.
The storage arrangements described lead to extremely efficient data loading in cascaded
applications. When a series of display bytes are sent to the display RAM, automatic
wrap-over to the next PCA85176 occurs when the last RAM address is exceeded.
Subaddressing across device boundaries is successful even if the change to the next
device in the cascade occurs within a transmitted character.

PCA85176
NXP Semiconductors
Universal LCD driver for low multiplex rates
The hardware subaddress must not be changed while the device is being accessed on the
I2C-bus interface.
7.13 Output bank selector
The output bank selector (see Table 13) selects one of the four rows per display RAM
address for transfer to the display register. The actual row selected depends on the
selected LCD drive mode in operation and on the instant in the multiplex sequence.
• In 1:4 multiplex mode, all RAM addresses of row 0 are selected, these are followed by
the contents of row 1, row 2, and then row 3
• In 1:3 multiplex mode, rows 0, 1, and 2 are selected sequentially
• In 1:2 multiplex mode, rows 0 and 1 are selected
• In static mode, row 0 is selected
The PCA85176 includes a RAM bank switching feature in the static and 1:2 multiplex
drive modes. In the static drive mode, the bank-select command may request the contents
of row 2 to be selected for display instead of the contents of row 0. In the 1:2 multiplex
mode, the contents of rows 2 and 3 may be selected instead of rows 0 and 1. This gives
the provision for preparing display information in an alternative bank and to be able to
switch to it once it is assembled.
7.14 Input bank selector
The input bank selector loads display data into the display RAM in accordance with the
selected LCD drive configuration. Display data can be loaded in row 2 in static drive mode
or in rows 2 and 3 in 1:2 multiplex drive mode by using the bank-select command (see
Table 13). The input bank selector functions independently to the output bank selector.
7.15 Blinker
The display blinking capabilities of the PCA85176 are very versatile. The whole display
can blink at frequencies selected by the blink-select command (see Table 14). The blink
frequencies are fractions of the clock frequency. The ratio between the clock and blink
frequencies depends on the blink mode selected (see Table 6).
An additional feature is for an arbitrary selection of LCD elements to blink. This applies to
the static and 1:2 multiplex drive modes and can be implemented without any
communication overheads. By means of the output bank selector, the displayed RAM
banks are exchanged with alternate RAM banks at the blink frequency. This mode can
also be specified by the blink-select command.
In the 1:3 and 1:4 multiplex modes, where no alternative RAM bank is available, groups of
LCD elements can blink by selectively changing the display RAM data at fixed time
intervals.

The blink frequency is proportional to the clock frequency (fclk). For the range of the clock frequency see
Table 17.
The entire display can blink at a frequency other than the nominal blink frequency. This
can be effectively performed by resetting and setting the display enable bit E at the
required rate using the mode-set command (see Table 10).
7.16 Characteristics of the I2C-bus
The I2C-bus is for bidirectional, two-line communication between different ICs or modules.
The two lines are a Serial DAta Line (SDA) and a Serial Clock Line (SCL). Both lines must
be connected to a positive supply via a pull-up resistor when connected to the output
stages of a device. Data transfer may be initiated only when the bus is not busy.
7.16.1 Bit transfer
One data bit is transferred during each clock pulse. The data on the SDA line must remain
stable during the HIGH period of the clock pulse as changes in the data line at this time
will be interpreted as a control signal (see Figure 12).

Fig 12. Bit transfer
7.16.2 START and STOP conditions
Both data and clock lines remain HIGH when the bus is not busy.
A HIGH-to-LOW transition of the data line while the clock is HIGH is defined as the START
condition - S.
A LOW-to-HIGH transition of the data line while the clock is HIGH is defined as the STOP
condition - P (see Figure 13).

A device generating a message is a transmitter, a device receiving a message is the
receiver. The device that controls the message is the master and the devices which are
controlled by the master are the slaves (see Figure 14).

7.16.4 Acknowledge
The number of data bytes transferred between the START and STOP conditions from
transmitter to receiver is unlimited. Each byte of eight bits is followed by an acknowledge
cycle.
• A slave receiver, which is addressed, must generate an acknowledge after the
reception of each byte.
• A master receiver must generate an acknowledge after the reception of each byte that
has been clocked out of the slave transmitter.
• The device that acknowledges must pull-down the SDA line during the acknowledge
clock pulse, so that the SDA line is stable LOW during the HIGH period of the
acknowledge related clock pulse (set-up and hold times must be taken into
consideration).
• A master receiver must signal an end of data to the transmitter by not generating an
acknowledge on the last byte that has been clocked out of the slave. In this event, the
transmitter must leave the data line HIGH to enable the master to generate a STOP
condition.
Acknowledgement on the I2C-bus is illustrated in Figure 15.

7.16.5 I2C-bus controller
The PCA85176 acts as an I2C-bus slave receiver. It does not initiate I2C-bus transfers or
transmit data to an I2C-bus master receiver. The only data output from the PCA85176 are
the acknowledge signals of the selected devices. Device selection depends on the
I2C-bus slave address, on the transferred command data and on the hardware
subaddress.
In single device applications, the hardware subaddress inputs A0, A1, and A2 are
normally tied to VSS which defines the hardware subaddress 0. In multiple device
applications A0, A1, and A2 are tied to VSS or VDD using a binary coding scheme, so that
no two devices with a common I2C-bus slave address have the same hardware
subaddress.
7.16.6 Input filters
To enhance noise immunity in electrically adverse environments, RC low-pass filters are
provided on the SDA and SCL lines.
7.16.7 I2C-bus protocol
Two I2C-bus slave addresses (0111 000 and 0111 001) are used to address the
PCA85176. The entire I2C-bus slave address byte is shown in Table 7.

The PCA85176 is a write-only device and will not respond to a read access, therefore bit 0
should always be logic 0. Bit 1 of the slave address byte that a PCA85176 will respond to,
is defined by the level tied to its SA0 input (VSS for logic 0 and VDD for logic 1).
Having two reserved slave addresses allows the following on the same I2C-bus:

condition (S) from the I2C-bus master which is followed by one of two possible PCA85176
slave addresses available. All PCA85176 whose SA0 inputs correspond to bit 0 of the

ignored by all PCA85176 whose SA0 inputs are set to the alternative level.

After the last command byte, one or more display data bytes may follow. Display data
bytes are stored in the display RAM at the address specified by the data pointer and the
subaddress counter. Both data pointer and subaddress counter are automatically updated
and the data directed to the intended PCA85176 device.
An acknowledgement after each byte is asserted only by the PCA85176 that are
addressed via address lines A0, A1, and A2. After the last display byte, the I2C-bus
master asserts a STOP condition (P). Alternately a START may be asserted to restart an
I2C-bus access.

12.1 Cascaded operation
Large display configurations of up to 16 PCA85176 can be recognized on the same
I2C-bus by using the 3-bit hardware subaddress (A0, A1, and A2) and the programmable
I2C-bus slave address (SA0).

When cascaded PCA85176 are synchronized, they can share the backplane signals from
one of the devices in the cascade. Such an arrangement is cost-effective in large LCD
applications since the backplane outputs of only one device need to be through-plated to
the backplane electrodes of the display. The other PCA85176 of the cascade contribute
additional segment outputs, but their backplane outputs are left open-circuit
(see Figure 23).

Fig 23. Cascaded PCA85176 configuration
The SYNC line is provided to maintain the correct synchronization between all cascaded
PCA85176. Synchronization is guaranteed after a power-on reset. The only time that
SYNC is likely to be needed is if synchronization is accidentally lost (e.g. by noise in
adverse electrical environments or by defining a multiplex drive mode when PCA85176
with different SA0 levels are cascaded).
SYNC is organized as an input/output pin. The output selection is realized as an
open-drain driver with an internal pull-up resistor. A PCA85176 asserts the SYNC line at
the onset of its last active backplane signal and monitors the SYNC line at all other times.
If synchronization in the cascade is lost, it is restored by the first PCA85176 to assert
SYNC. The timing relationship between the backplane waveforms and the SYNC signal
for the various drive modes of the PCA85176 are shown in Figure 24.
The contact resistance between the SYNC on each cascaded device must be controlled.
If the resistance is too high, the device is not able to synchronize properly; this is
particularly applicable to chip-on-glass applications. The maximum SYNC contact
resistance allowed for the number of devices in cascade is given in Table 19.

The PCA85176 can always be cascaded with other devices of the same type or
conditionally with other devices of the same family. This allows optimal drive selection for
a given number of pixels to display. Figure 21 and Figure 24 show the timing of the
synchronization signals.
In a cascaded configuration only one PCA85176 master must be used as clock source. All
other PCA85176 in the cascade must be configured as slave such that they receive the
clock from the master.
If an external clock source is used, all PCA85176 in the cascade must be configured such
as to receive the clock from that external source (pin OSC connected to VDD). Thereby it
must be ensured that the clock tree is designed such that on all PCA85176 the clock
propagation delay from the clock source to all PCA85176 in the cascade is as equal as
possible since otherwise synchronization artefacts may occur.
In mixed cascading configurations, care has to be taken that the specifications of the
individual cascaded devices are met at all times.

14. Handling information
All input and output pins are protected against ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD) under
normal handling. When handling Metal-Oxide Semiconductor (MOS) devices ensure that
all normal precautions are taken as described in JESD625-A, IEC 61340-5 or equivalent
standards.
15. Soldering of SMD packages
This text provides a very brief insight into a complex technology. A more in-depth account
of soldering ICs can be found in Application Note AN10365 “Surface mount reflow
soldering description”.
15.1 Introduction to soldering
Soldering is one of the most common methods through which packages are attached to
Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), to form electrical circuits. The soldered joint provides both
the mechanical and the electrical connection. There is no single soldering method that is
ideal for all IC packages. Wave soldering is often preferred when through-hole and
Surface Mount Devices (SMDs) are mixed on one printed wiring board; however, it is not
suitable for fine pitch SMDs. Reflow soldering is ideal for the small pitches and high
densities that come with increased miniaturization.
15.2 Wave and reflow soldering
Wave soldering is a joining technology in which the joints are made by solder coming from
a standing wave of liquid solder. The wave soldering process is suitable for the following:
• Through-hole components
• Leaded or leadless SMDs, which are glued to the surface of the printed circuit board
Not all SMDs can be wave soldered. Packages with solder balls, and some leadless
packages which have solder lands underneath the body, cannot be wave soldered. Also,
leaded SMDs with leads having a pitch smaller than ~0.6 mm cannot be wave soldered,
due to an increased probability of bridging.
The reflow soldering process involves applying solder paste to a board, followed by
component placement and exposure to a temperature profile. Leaded packages,
packages with solder balls, and leadless packages are all reflow solderable.
Key characteristics in both wave and reflow soldering are:

15.3 Wave soldering
Key characteristics in wave soldering are:
• Process issues, such as application of adhesive and flux, clinching of leads, board
transport, the solder wave parameters, and the time during which components are
exposed to the wave
• Solder bath specifications, including temperature and impurities
15.4 Reflow soldering
Key characteristics in reflow soldering are:
• Lead-free versus SnPb soldering; note that a lead-free reflow process usually leads to
higher minimum peak temperatures (see Figure 27) than a SnPb process, thus
reducing the process window
• Solder paste printing issues including smearing, release, and adjusting the process
window for a mix of large and small components on one board
• Reflow temperature profile; this profile includes preheat, reflow (in which the board is
heated to the peak temperature) and cooling down. It is imperative that the peak
temperature is high enough for the solder to make reliable solder joints (a solder paste
characteristic). In addition, the peak temperature must be low enough that the
packages and/or boards are not damaged. The peak temperature of the package
depends on package thickness and volume and is classified in accordance with
Table 20 and 21

times.
Studies have shown that small packages reach higher temperatures during reflow
soldering, see Figure 27.
