Note: The SPLC501C chips maintain their operating modes until some conditions occurred to change them.
Consequently, excessive external noise, etc.,
can change the internal modes of the SPLC501C chip. Thus, in the packaging and system design, it is necessary to suppress the noise or take
measurement to prevent the noise from influencing the chip.
Moreover, it is recommended that the operating modes be refreshed periodically to
prevent the effects.

The SPLC501C can be connected to either 80 X 86 Series MPUs
The display area can be enlarged by using multiple SPLC501C
or to 68000 Series MPUs.

Moreover, The serial interface is
possible to operate the SPLC501C chips with fewer signal lines.
When this is done, the chip select signal can be used to
select the individual ICs to access.
