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 to the power supplies (VDD, VSS and VLCD) and the LCD panel chosen for the application. The PCF8576D is a versatile peripheral device designed to interface any microprocessor/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 display configurations possible with the PCF8576D depend on the number of active backplane outputs required. A selection of display configurations is shown in Table 1; all of these configurations can be implemented in the typical system shown in Fig.5.

At power-on the PCF8576D resets to the following starting conditions: • All backplane outputs are set to VLCD The LCD on voltage (Von) is calculated by the formula • All segment outputs are set to VLCD • Drive mode ‘1 : 4 multiplex with 1⁄3 bias’ is selected 2 1 1 ---- + ( N – 1 ) ⋅ ------------- 1+a N -----------------------------------------------------------N • Blinking is switched off V op • Input and output bank selectors are reset (as defined in Table 4) The LCD off voltage (Voff) is calculated by the formula • The I2C-bus interface is initialized 2 a – ( 2a + N ) --------------------------------2 N ⋅ (1 + a) • The data pointer and the subaddress counter are cleared V op • Display is disabled. where Vop is the resultant voltage at the LCD segment; N is the LCD drive mode: 1 = static, 2 = 1 : 2, 3 = 1 : 3, 4 = 1 : 4. Data transfers on the I2C-bus should be avoided for 1 ms following power-on to allow completion of the reset action. Discrimination is the ratio of Von to Voff, and is determined 6.2 LCD bias generator V on = by the formula --------V off Fractional LCD biasing voltages are obtained from an internal voltage divider comprising three resistors connected in series between VLCD and VSS. The middle resistor can be bypassed to provide a 1⁄2 bias voltage level for the 1 : 2 multiplex configuration. The LCD voltage can be temperature compensated externally via the supply to pin VLCD. 6.3 Using the above formula, the discrimination for an LCD drive mode of 1 : 3 with 1⁄2 bias is 3 = 1.732, and the discrimination for an LCD drive mode of 1 : 4 with 1⁄2 bias 21 is ---------- = 1.528. 3 LCD voltage selector The advantage of these LCD drive modes is a reduction of the LCD full-scale voltage VLCD as follows: The LCD voltage selector co-ordinates the multiplexing of the LCD in accordance with the selected LCD drive configuration. The operation of the voltage selector is controlled by MODE SET commands 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 2. 1 : 3 multiplex (1⁄2 bias): VLCD = 6 × V off(rms) = 2.449 Voff(rms) 1 : 4 multiplex (1⁄2 bias): VLCD = 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. (4 × 3) ---------------------3 = 2.309 Voff(rms) These compare with VLCD = 3 Voff(rms) when 1⁄3 bias is used. 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. 2004 Dec 22 2 (a + 1) + (N – 1) -------------------------------------------2 (a – 1) + (N – 1) 10 Philips Semiconductors Product specification Universal LCD driver for low multiplex rates Table 2 PCF8576D Discrimination ratios NUMBER OF LCD DRIVE MODE BACKPLANES LEVELS LCD BIAS CONFIGURATION V off(rms) --------------------V lcd V on(rms) --------------------V lcd V on(rms) D = --------------------V off(rms) static 1 2 static 0 1 ∞ 1 : 2 multiplex 2 3 1⁄ 2 0.354 0.791 2.236 4 1⁄ 3 0.333 0.745 2.236 4 1⁄ 3 0.333 0.638 1.915 4 1⁄ 3 0.333 0.577 1.732 1 : 2 multiplex 2 1 : 3 multiplex 3 1 : 4 multiplex 6.4 4 LCD drive mode waveforms 6.4.1 STATIC DRIVE MODE The static LCD drive mode is used when a single backplane is provided in 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 the 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 the 1 : 2 multiplex drive mode, BP0 and BP2, BP1 and BP3 respectively carry the same signals and may also be paired to increase the drive capabilities. In the 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. INTERNAL CLOCK The internal logic of the PCF8576D 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 PCF8576Ds in the system that are connected in cascade. After power-up, pin SDA must be HIGH to guarantee that the clock starts. 6.5.2 EXTERNAL CLOCK Pin CLK is enabled as an external clock input by connecting pin OSC to VDD. The LCD frame signal frequency is determined by the clock frequency (fCLK). 6.10 Timing The PCF8576D 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 PCF8576D 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 Frame frequency = ---------24 6.7 When display data is transmitted to the PCF8576D, 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, triplets or quadruplets. For example, in the 1 : 2 mode, the RAM data is stored every second bit. To illustrate the filling order, an example of a 7-segment numeric display showing all drive modes is given in Fig.12; the RAM filling organization depicted applies equally to other LCD types. Display register The display latch holds the display data while the corresponding multiplex signals are generated. There is a one-to-one relationship between the data in the display latch, the LCD segment outputs and each column of the display RAM. 6.8 With reference to Fig.12, in the static drive mode, the eight transmitted data bits are placed in bit 0 of eight successive display RAM addresses. In the 1 : 2 mode, the eight transmitted data bits are placed in bits 0 and 1 of four successive display RAM addresses. In the 1 : 3 mode, these bits are placed in bits 0, 1 and 2 of three successive addresses, with bit 2 of the third address left unchanged. This last bit may, if necessary, be controlled by an additional transfer to this address but care should be taken to avoid overriding adjacent data because full bytes are always transmitted. 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 latch. When less than 40 segment outputs are required, the unused segment outputs should be left open-circuit. 2004 Dec 22 Display RAM The display RAM is a static 40 × 4-bit RAM which stores LCD data. A logic 1 in the RAM bit-map indicates the on-state of the corresponding LCD segment; similarly, a logic 0 indicates the off-state. There is a one-to-one correspondence between the RAM addresses and the segment outputs, and between the individual bits of a RAM word and the backplane outputs. The first RAM column corresponds to the 40 segments operated with respect to backplane BP0 (see Fig.11). In multiplexed LCD applications the segment data of the second, third and fourth column of the display RAM are time-multiplexed with BP1, BP2 and BP3 respectively. A clock signal must always be supplied to the device; removing the clock may freeze the LCD in a DC state. 6.6 Backplane outputs 16 Philips Semiconductors Product specification Universal LCD driver for low multiplex rates PCF8576D In the 1 : 4 mode, the eight transmitted data bits are placed in bits 0, 1, 2 and 3 of two successive display RAM addresses. 6.11 arriving data byte is stored at the display RAM address indicated by the data pointer in accordance with the filling order shown in Fig.12. After each byte is stored, the contents of the data pointer are automatically incremented by a value dependent on the selected LCD drive mode: eight (static drive mode), four (1 : 2 mode), three (1 : 3 mode) or two (1 : 4 mode). If an I2C-bus data access is terminated early then the state of the data pointer will be unknown. The data pointer should be re-written prior to further RAM accesses. 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. Following this, an display RAM addresses (rows) / segment outputs (S) 0 1 2 3 4 35 36 37 38 39 0 display RAM bits 1 (columns) / backplane outputs 2 (BP) 3 MBE525 Fig.11 Display RAM bit-map showing direct relationship between display RAM addresses and segment outputs, and between bits in a RAM word and backplane outputs. 6.12 Subaddress counter 6.13 The storage of display data is determined by the contents of the subaddress counter. Storage is allowed to take place only when the contents of the subaddress counter agree with the hardware subaddress applied to A0, A1 and A2. The subaddress counter value is defined by the DEVICE SELECT command. If the contents of the subaddress counter and the hardware subaddress do not agree 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 output bank selector selects one of the four bits per display RAM address for transfer to the display latch. The actual bit chosen depends on the selected LCD drive mode and on the instant in the multiplex sequence. In 1 : 4 mode, all RAM addresses of bit 0 are selected, these are followed by the contents of bit 1, bit 2 and then bit 3. Similarly in 1 : 3 mode, bits 0, 1 and 2 are selected sequentially. In 1 : 2 mode, bits 0 and 1 are selected and, in static mode, bit 0 is selected. Signal SYNC will reset these sequences to the following starting points; bit 3 for 1 : 4 mode, bit 2 for 1 : 3 mode, bit 1 for 1 : 2 mode and bit 0 for static mode. 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 PCF8576D 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 (such as during the 14th display data byte transmitted in 1 : 3 mode). The PCF8576D includes a RAM bank switching feature in the static and 1 : 2 drive modes. In the static drive mode, the BANK SELECT command may request the contents of bit 2 to be selected for display instead of the contents of bit 0. In 1 : 2 mode, the contents of bits 2 and 3 may be selected instead of bits 0 and 1. This allows display information to be prepared in an alternative bank and then selected for display when it is assembled. The hardware subaddress should not be changed whilst the device is being accessed on the I2C-bus interface. 2004 Dec 22 Output bank selector 17 Philips Semiconductors Product specification Universal LCD driver for low multiplex rates 6.14 PCF8576D Input bank selector An additional feature allows an arbitrary selection of LCD segments to be blinked in the static and 1 : 2 drive modes. This is implemented without any communication overheads by the output bank selector which alternates the displayed data between the data in the display RAM bank and the data in an alternative RAM bank at the blink frequency. This mode can also be implemented by the BLINK command. The input bank selector loads display data into the display RAM in accordance with the selected LCD drive configuration. The BANK SELECT command can be used to load display data in bit 2 in static drive mode or in bits 2 and 3 in 1 : 2 mode. The input bank selector functions are independent of the output bank selector. 6.15 Blinker In the 1 : 3 and 1 : 4 drive modes, where no alternative RAM bank is available, groups of LCD segments can be blinked by selectively changing the display RAM data at fixed time intervals. The PCF8576D has a very versatile display blinking capability. The whole display can blink at a frequency selected by the BLINK command. Each blink frequency is a multiple integer value of the clock frequency; the ratio between the clock frequency and blink frequency depends on the blink mode selected, as shown in Table 3. Table 3 The entire display can be blinked at a frequency other than the nominal blink frequency by sequentially resetting and setting the display enable bit E at the required rate using the MODE SET command.

Blink modes 0.5, 1 and 2 Hz, and nominal blink frequencies 0.5, 1 and 2 Hz correspond to an oscillator frequency (fCLK) of 1536 Hz at pin CLK. The oscillator frequency range is given in Chapter 11. 2004 Dec 22 18 This text is here in white to force landscape pages to be rotated correctly when browsing through the pdf in the Acrobat reader.This text is here in _white to force landscape pages to be rotated correctly when browsing through the pdf in the Acrobat reader.This text is here inThis text is here in white to force landscape pages to be rotated correctly when browsing through the pdf in the Acrobat reader. white to force landscape pages to be ... static a 2 Sn 3 Sn 4 Sn 5 Sn 6 b f g e 1 19 Sn 2 Sn 3 1:3 Sn 1 Sn 2 Sn 7 DP BP1 e c d DP b f BP1 c 0 1 2 3 BP2 DP a b BP0 n 5 n 6 n 7 c x x x b x x x a x x x f x x x g x x x e x x x d x x x DP x x x n n 1 n 2 n 3 a b x x f g x x e c x x d DP x x n n 1 n 2 b DP c x a d g x f e x x n n 1 a c b DP f e g d LSB c b a f g e d DP e 0 1 2 3 bit/ BP BP1 c d MSB a b f LSB g e c d DP MSB LSB b DP c a d g f e BP2 g BP3 MSB a c b DP f LSB e g d Fig.12 Relationships between LCD layout, drive mode, display RAM filling order and display data transmitted over the I2C-bus.

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 (see Fig.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. In chip-on-glass applications where the track resistance from the SDA pad to the system SDA line can be significant, a potential divider is generated by the bus pull-up resistor and the Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) track resistance. It is therefore necessary to minimize the track resistance from the SDA pad to the system SDA line to guarantee a valid LOW-level during the acknowledge cycle. 7.1 7.5 The PCF8576D 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 PCF8576D 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. Bit transfer 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 in accordance with a binary coding scheme such that no two devices with a common I2C-bus slave address have the same hardware subaddress. 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 Fig.13). 7.2 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 Fig.14). 7.3 7.6 System configuration 7.7 I2C-bus protocol Two I2C-bus slave addresses (01110000 and 01110010) are reserved for the PCF8576D. The least significant bit of the slave address that a PCF8576D will respond to is defined by the level tied to its SA0 input. The PCF8576D is a write-only device and will not respond to a read access. Having two reserved slave addresses allows the following on the same I2C-bus: Acknowledge The number of data bytes that can be transferred from transmitter to receiver between the START and STOP conditions is unlimited. Each byte of eight bits is followed by an acknowledge bit. The acknowledge bit is a HIGH-level signal on the bus that is asserted by the transmitter during which time the master generates an extra acknowledge related clock pulse. An addressed slave receiver must generate an acknowledge after receiving each byte. Also a master receiver must generate an acknowledge after receiving each byte that has been clocked out of the slave transmitter. The acknowledging device must pull-down the SDA line during the 2004 Dec 22 Input filters To enhance noise immunity in electrically adverse environments, RC low-pass filters are provided on the SDA and SCL lines. 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 Fig.15). 7.4 PCF8576D I2C-bus controller • Up to 16 PCF8576Ds for very large LCD applications • The use of two types of LCD multiplex drive. The I2C-bus protocol is shown in Fig.17. The sequence is initiated with a START condition (S) from the I2C-bus master which is followed by one of two possible PCF8576D slave addresses available. All PCF8576Ds whose SA0 inputs correspond to bit 0 of the slave address respond by asserting an acknowledge in parallel. This I2C-bus transfer is ignored by all PCF8576Ds whose SA0 inputs are set to the alternative level. 20 Philips Semiconductors Product specification Universal LCD driver for low multiplex rates PCF8576D 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. After an acknowledgement, one or more command bytes follow that define the status of each addressed PCF8576D. The last command byte sent is identified by resetting its most significant bit, continuation bit C, (see Fig.18). The command bytes are also acknowledged by all addressed PCF8576Ds on the bus. 7.8 Command decoder The command decoder identifies command bytes that arrive on the I2C-bus. All available commands carry a continuation bit C in their most significant bit position as shown in Fig.18. When this bit is set, it indicates that the next byte of the transfer to arrive will also represent a command. If this bit is reset, it indicates that the command byte is the last in the transfer. Further bytes will be regarded as display data. 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 PCF8576D device. The five commands available to the PCF8576D are defined in Table 4.

PCF8576Ds connected in cascade are synchronized to allow the backplane signals from only one device in the cascade to be shared. This 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 cascaded PCF8576Ds contribute additional segment outputs but their backplane outputs are left open-circuit (see Fig.19).

This synchronization is guaranteed after the Power-on reset. The only time that SYNC is likely to be needed is if synchronization is lost accidentally, for example, by noise in adverse electrical environments, or if the LCD multiplex drive mode is changed in an application using several cascaded PCF8576Ds, as the drive mode cannot be changed on all of the cascaded devices simultaneously. SYNC can be either an input or an output signal; a SYNC output is implemented as an open-drain driver with an internal pull-up resistor. A PCF8576D asserts SYNC at the start of its last active backplane signal, and monitors the SYNC line at all other times. If cascade synchronization is lost, it will be restored by the first PCF8576D to assert SYNC. The timing relationship between the backplane waveforms and the SYNC signal for each LCD drive mode is shown in Fig.20. NUMBER OF DEVICES MAXIMUM CONTACT RESISTANCE 2 6000 Ω 3 to 5 2200 Ω 6 to 10 1200 Ω 10 to 16 700 Ω The contact resistance between the SYNC input/output on each cascaded device must be controlled. If the resistance is too high, the device will not be 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 14. handbook, full pagewidth VDD VLCD 6 SDA 1, 58, 59 SCL 2, 3 SYNC 4 13 40 segment drives LCD PANEL PCF8576DU CLK (up to 2560 elements) 5 OSC 7 8 9 A0 10 11 12 A1 A2 SA0 VSS BP0 to BP3 (open-circuit) VLCD VDD R≤ HOST MICROPROCESSOR/ MICROCONTROLLER tr 2CB V DD V LCD 6 13 SDA 1, 58, 59 SCL 2, 3 SYNC 4 PCF8576DU CLK 5 OSC 7 40 segment drives 4 backplanes BP0 to BP3 MDB077 8 VSS A0 9 A1 10 A2 11 12 SA0 VSS Fig.19 Cascaded PCF8576D configuration. 2004 Dec 22 25 Philips Semiconductors Product specification Universal LCD driver for low multiplex rates PCF8576D 1 Tframe = f frame handbook, full pagewidth BP0 SYNC (a) static drive mode.

A more in-depth account of soldering ICs can be found in our “Data Handbook IC26; Integrated Circuit Packages” (document order number 9398 652 90011). • Use a double-wave soldering method comprising a turbulent wave with high upward pressure followed by a smooth laminar wave. • For packages with leads on two sides and a pitch (e): There is no soldering method that is ideal for all surface mount IC packages. Wave soldering can still be used for certain surface mount ICs, but it is not suitable for fine pitch SMDs. In these situations reflow soldering is recommended. 16.2 – larger than or equal to 1.27 mm, the footprint longitudinal axis is preferred to be parallel to the transport direction of the printed-circuit board; – smaller than 1.27 mm, the footprint longitudinal axis must be parallel to the transport direction of the printed-circuit board. Reflow soldering The footprint must incorporate solder thieves at the downstream end. Reflow soldering requires solder paste (a suspension of fine solder particles, flux and binding agent) to be applied to the printed-circuit board by screen printing, stencilling or pressure-syringe dispensing before package placement. Driven by legislation and environmental forces the worldwide use of lead-free solder pastes is increasing. • For packages with leads on four sides, the footprint must be placed at a 45° angle to the transport direction of the printed-circuit board. The footprint must incorporate solder thieves downstream and at the side corners. Several methods exist for reflowing; for example, convection or convection/infrared heating in a conveyor type oven. Throughput times (preheating, soldering and cooling) vary between 100 seconds and 200 seconds depending on heating method. During placement and before soldering, the package must be fixed with a droplet of adhesive. The adhesive can be applied by screen printing, pin transfer or syringe dispensing. The package can be soldered after the adhesive is cured. Typical reflow peak temperatures range from 215 °C to 270 °C depending on solder paste material. The top-surface temperature of the packages should preferably be kept: Typical dwell time of the leads in the wave ranges from 3 seconds to 4 seconds at 250 °C or 265 °C, depending on solder material applied, SnPb or Pb-free respectively. • below 225 °C (SnPb process) or below 245 °C (Pb-free process) A mildly-activated flux will eliminate the need for removal of corrosive residues in most applications. – for all BGA, HTSSON..T and SSOP..T packages 16.4 – for packages with a thickness ≥ 2.5 mm Fix the component by first soldering two diagonally-opposite end leads. Use a low voltage (24 V or less) soldering iron applied to the flat part of the lead. Contact time must be limited to 10 seconds at up to 300 °C. – for packages with a thickness < 2.5 mm and a volume ≥ 350 mm3 so called thick/large packages. • below 240 °C (SnPb process) or below 260 °C (Pb-free process) for packages with a thickness < 2.5 mm and a volume < 350 mm3 so called small/thin packages. When using a dedicated tool, all other leads can be soldered in one operation within 2 seconds to 5 seconds between 270 °C and 320 °C. Moisture sensitivity precautions, as indicated on packing, must be respected at all times. 16.3 Wave soldering Conventional single wave soldering is not recommended for surface mount devices (SMDs) or printed-circuit boards with a high component density, as solder bridging and non-wetting can present major problems. 2004 Dec 22 Manual soldering 37 Philips Semiconductors Product specification Universal LCD driver for low multiplex rates 16.5 PCF8576D Suitability of surface mount IC packages for wave and reflow soldering methods SOLDERING METHOD PACKAGE(1) WAVE REFLOW(2) BGA, HTSSON..T(3), LBGA, LFBGA, SQFP, SSOP..T(3), TFBGA, VFBGA, XSON not suitable suitable DHVQFN, HBCC, HBGA, HLQFP, HSO, HSOP, HSQFP, HSSON, HTQFP, HTSSOP, HVQFN, HVSON, SMS not suitable(4) suitable PLCC(5), SO, SOJ suitable suitable not recommended(5)(6) suitable SSOP, TSSOP, VSO, VSSOP not recommended(7) suitable CWQCCN..L(8), PMFP(9), WQCCN..L(8) not suitable LQFP, QFP, TQFP not suitable Notes 1. For more detailed information on the BGA packages refer to the “(LF)BGA Application Note” (AN01026); order a copy from your Philips Semiconductors sales office. 2. All surface mount (SMD) packages are moisture sensitive. Depending upon the moisture content, the maximum temperature (with respect to time) and body size of the package, there is a risk that internal or external package cracks may occur due to vaporization of the moisture in them (the so called popcorn effect). For details, refer to the Drypack information in the “Data Handbook IC26; Integrated Circuit Packages; Section: Packing Methods”. 3. These transparent plastic packages are extremely sensitive to reflow soldering conditions and must on no account be processed through more than one soldering cycle or subjected to infrared reflow soldering with peak temperature exceeding 217 °C ± 10 °C measured in the atmosphere of the reflow oven. The package body peak temperature must be kept as low as possible. 4. These packages are not suitable for wave soldering. On versions with the heatsink on the bottom side, the solder cannot penetrate between the printed-circuit board and the heatsink. On versions with the heatsink on the top side, the solder might be deposited on the heatsink surface. 5. If wave soldering is considered, then the package must be placed at a 45° angle to the solder wave direction. The package footprint must incorporate solder thieves downstream and at the side corners. 6. Wave soldering is suitable for LQFP, QFP and TQFP packages with a pitch (e) larger than 0.8 mm; it is definitely not suitable for packages with a pitch (e) equal to or smaller than 0.65 mm. 7. Wave soldering is suitable for SSOP, TSSOP, VSO and VSSOP packages with a pitch (e) equal to or larger than 0.65 mm; it is definitely not suitable for packages with a pitch (e) equal to or smaller than 0.5 mm. 8. Image sensor packages in principle should not be soldered. They are mounted in sockets or delivered pre-mounted on flex foil. However, the image sensor package can be mounted by the client on a flex foil by using a hot bar soldering process. The appropriate soldering profile can be provided on request. 9. Hot bar soldering or manual soldering is suitable for PMFP packages. 2004 Dec 22 38 Philips Semiconductors Product specification Universal LCD driver for low multiplex rates PCF8576D 17 DATA SHEET STATUS LEVEL DATA SHEET STATUS(1) PRODUCT STATUS(2)(3) Development DEFINITION I Objective data II Preliminary data Qualification This data sheet contains data from the preliminary specification.
