PT16518
1/3, 1/4 Duty LCD Display Drivers with
Key Input Function
DESCRIPTION
The PT16518 is the 1/4 duty and 1/3 duty
general-purpose microprocessor-controlled LCD driver
that can be used in applications such as frequency
display in products with electronic tuning. In addition to
being able to drive up to 276 segments directly, the
PT16518 can also control up to 8 general-purpose
output ports. Because it has the PWM output of a
maximum of 6 ch, the brightness control of the LED
backlight of RGB can be done. Incorporation of an
oscillation circuit helps to reduce the number of
external resistors and capacitors required. This
product also incorporates a key scan circuit that
accepts input from up to 30 keys to reduce printed
circuit board wiring.
FEATURES
 Switching between 1/2 bias and 1/3 bias drive
techniques under serial data control.
When 1/4-duty: Capable of driving up to
276 segments
When 1/3-duty: Capable of driving up to
210 segments
 Serial data input supports SERIAL INTERFACE
format communication with the system
controller (Support 3.3V and 5V operation).
 Serial data control of the power-saving mode
based backup function and the all segments
forced off function.
 Serial data control of switching between the
segment output port and general-purpose output
port function.(Support for up to 8 general-purpose
output ports)
 Support for the PWM output function of a
maximum of 6 ch (It can output from the
general-purpose output port).
 Support for clock output function of 1ch (It can
output from the general-purpose output port).
 Serial data control of the frame frequency of the
common and segment output waveforms.
 Serial data control of switching between the
internal oscillator operating mode and external
clock operating mode.
 High generality, since display data is displayed
directly without the intervention of a decoder
circuit.
 Built-in display contrast adjustment circuit.
 The INH pin allows the display to be forced to the
off state.
 Incorporation of an oscillator circuit (Incorporation
of resistor and capacitor for an oscillation).
 Key input function for up to 30 keys (A key scan is
performed only when a key is pressed.)
APPLICATION
 Car Audio
 Set-Top Box
 Electronic Equipment with LCD Display.

1. APPLICATION CIRCUIT
Notes:
1. Add a capacitor to the logic block power supply line so that the logic block power supply voltage V DD rise time when power is applied and the logic
block power supply voltage VDD fall time when power drops are both at least 1ms, as the PT16518 is reset by the VDET.
2. The DO pin, being an open-drain output, requires a pull-up resistor. Select a resistance (between 1 and 10KΩ) appropriate for the capacitance of
the external wiring so that signal waveforms are not degraded.

Key scan outputs. Although key scan timing lines require
diodes to be inserted in the timing lines to prevent shorts, since
these outputs are unbalanced CMOS transistor outputs, these
outputs will not be damaged by shorting when these outputs
are used to form a key matrix. The KS1/S56 and KS6/S61 pins
can be used as segment outputs when so specified by the
control data.
