PT16511
LCD Control/Driver IC
DESCRIPTION
The PT16511 is 1/4 duty general-purpose LCD driver
that can be used for frequency display in electronic
tuners under the control of a microcontroller. The
PT16511 can drive an LCD with up to 140 segments
directly. The PT16511 can also control up to 4
general-purpose output ports.
APPLICATION
• Electronic equipment with LCD Display
FEATURES
• Up to 140 segments for 1/4 duty drive can be
displayed
• Serial interface for clock, Data Input, Strobe pins
• Serial data control of the power-saving mode
based backup function and all the segments forced
off function
• Serial data control of switching between the
segment output port and the general-purpose
output port functions
• Serial data control of frame frequency for common
and segment output waveforms
• High generality, since display data is displayed
directly without decoder intervention
• The INHB pin can force the display to the off state
• RC oscillator circuit
• Programmable PWM signal output pins

APPLICATION CIRCUIT
Notes:
1. * = When a capacitor except the recommended external capacitance (Cosc = 1000 pF) is connected the OSC pin, we recommend that
applications connect the OSC pin with a capacitor in the range 220 to 2200pF.
2. The resistance value must be decide by the LCD panel size.

Segment outputs for displaying the display data
transferred by serial data input. The pins
SEG1/GP1/PW1 to SEG4/GP4 can be used as
general-purpose output ports when so set up by
the control data.

Common driver outputs.
The frame frequency is fO Hz.
Logic block power supply. Provide a voltage in
the range 4.5 to 6.0V.
LCD drive 2/3 bias voltage (middle level) supply.
It is possible to supply the 2/3 VDD voltage to this
pin externally.
LCD drive 1/3 bias voltage (middle level) supply.
It is possible to supply the 1/3 VDD voltage to this
pin externally.
Ground pin. Connect to ground.
Oscillator connection.
An oscillator circuit is formed by connecting an
external resistor and capacitor to this pin.
Display off control input
• INHB = low (VSS)…off
SEG1/ GP1/PW1 to SEG4/GP4 = low
(VSS)
(These pins are forcibly set to the
segment output port function and fixed at
the VSS level)
SEG5 to SEG35 = low (VSS)
COM1 to COM4 = low (VSS)
• INHB = high (VDD)…on
Note that serial data transfers can be performed
when the display is forced off by this pin.
Serial data transfer inputs. These pins are
connected to the control microprocessor.
