Static, 1/2 Duty, 1/3 Duty, 1/4 Duty 80 Outputs LCD Driver
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ML9488 is an LCD driver LSI, consists of a 80-bit shift register, a 320-bit data latch, 80 sets of LCD drivers,
and a common signal generation circuit.
It can directly drive an LCD up to 80 segments for static display, 160 segments for 1/2-duty display, 240
segments for 1/3-duty display, and 320 segments for 1/4-duty display.
The three-wire serial interface and I2C interface are selectable.

POWER ON/OFF TIMING
To turn on the power supply, raise the logic power supply first, then LCD drive power supply in order to prevent
the IC from malfunctioning.
To fall the power supply, fall the LCD drive power supply first, then the logic power supply.
For a VDD pin ranging from 0 V to VDDmin, set VDD ≥ VLCD and t1 ≥ 0 [ns].
To enable the Internal POC circuit, the VDD power supply rise time t2 range needs to be 100 [µs] t2 500 [ms].
For the VDD power supply to turn OFF then turn ON again, it is necessary to secure the POC discharge time t3
100 [ms].

These pins are for the oscillator circuit to generate common signals.
The OSC1 and OSCR pins are input pins and have a schmitt circuit.
OSC2 is an output pin. It becomes an output when the OSC I/E pin = "H" and
a high impedance when the OSC I/E pin = "L".
【In the master mode (M/S pin ="H") 】
Three types are selectable: Internal oscillation mode, external oscillation
mode, and external clock input mode.
•Internal oscillation mode: Set the OSC I/E pin to "H", short the OSCR and
OSC2 pins, and open the OSC1 pin.
•External Rf oscillation mode: Set the OSC I/E pin to "H", connect an
oscillation resistor Rf between the OSC1 and OSC2 pins, and open the
OSCR pin.
•External clock input mode: Set the OSC I/E pin to "L", open the OSCR and
OSC2 pins, and input the external clock to the OSC1 pin.
【 In the slave mode (M/S pin ="L") 】
Open the OSCR and OSC2 pins and connect the OSC1 pin to the
ML9488's CKO pin that has been set to the master mode.
Clock output pin.
In the master mode (M/S pin = "H"), the 1/16 division signal of the oscillation
frequency is output.
In the slave mode (M/S pin = "L"), the output is fixed to "L".
For a cascade connection, connect this pin to the OSC1 pin of the chip that
has been set to the slave mode.

Input/output pin for common synchronization. It has a schmitt circuit.
It becomes the synchronization signal output pin in the master mode (M/S
pin = "H").
It becomes the synchronization signal input pin in the slave mode (M/S pin = "L").
For cascade connection, connect all of the involved ML9488s' SYNC pins by
the common line.
Interface switching pin. It has a schmitt circuit.

When this pin is "H", the interface is I C.
When this pin is "L", the interface is three-wire serial.
Display data input pin. It has a schmitt circuit.
I2C="L": Serial interface; DATA
Input the display data in the order of SEG80, SEG79, ... , SEG2, and SEG1.
The display data turns on at "H" and turns off at "L".
2
I2C="H": I C interface; SDA
Input the display data in units of 8 bits. The display data turns on at "H" and
turns off at "L".
This pin has a built-in noise filter through which noises in widths up to 50 ns
are removed. This noise filter is valid only when I2C = "H".
Shift clock input pin for display data. It has a schmitt circuit.
I2C="L": Serial interface; CLOCK
The display data input to the DATA pin is serially input to the shift register at
the CLOCK signal rise.
2
I2C="H": I C interface; SCL
The display data input to the SDA pin is serially input to the shift register at
the SCL signal rise.
This pin has a built-in noise filter through which noises in widths up to 50 ns
are removed. This noise filter is valid only when I2C = "H".
Input pin for the load signal of display data. It has a schmitt circuit.
I2C="L": Serial interface; LOAD
The display data in the shift register is transmitted as is to the segment driver
for the "H" duration. When this pin is brought into "L", the shift register is
disconnected from the segment driver. The display data in the shift register
immediately before it become "L" is held in the data latch and transmitted to
the segment driver.

I2C="H": I C interface
Use this pin as it is connected to GND.
I2C="L": Serial interface
Use this pin as it is opened.

The I C bus acknowledge output signal. Normally, use it as it is connected
with the SDA pin.
Connect an external pull-up resistor whenever
necessary, as it is an open drain pin. The pull-up connection destination
supply voltage shall be the VDD supply voltage or less.
Internal POC circuit enable pin. It has a schmitt circuit.
When this pin is "H", the POC circuit becomes OFF and the constant current
(8µA) is cut. The RESETB pin pull-up resistor is cut as well.
When this pin is "L", the POC circuit becomes ON.
The RESETB pin is connected to a pull-up resistor.
Reset signal input pin for initializing inside the IC. It has a schmitt circuit.
The "L" level enables the reset. This pin has an Internal pull-up resistor.

DESCRIPTION
Operation description (Serial interface)
• Display data input
As described in the Data configuration section, the display data consists of the data field that corresponds to
each segment on/off and the command field that indicates the display data input.
When inputting the display data, the "F3" command is set in the command field. When the "F1" or "F2"
command is set in the command field, the display data in the data field becomes invalid.
The data input to the DATA pin is loaded to the shift register at the CLOCK pulse rise, transferred to the
display data latch during the LOAD pulse at the "H" level, then output via the segment driver.

• Display on, Display off
The display becomes off at power-on reset. To display, write the display on command.
The display off is the command that makes all segments off. Writing the display off command turns off the
lights regardless of the display data.
The display on is the command to release the display off. Writing the display on command returns the display
to the original state.

Note 1 : The commands F1 and F2 settings become valid when the least four bits of C4 to C7 are input.
(The bits from D1 to D80 and from C0 to C3 are not necessary.)
Note 2 : If the dummy bit is needed for the reason of number of transfer bits, put it on the first bit side.
Note 3 : The command execution follows the contents of the C7 to C0 registers immediately before the LOAD
becomes "H".

CO: Consecutive control byte setting bit

RS: Command/data setting bit
0: Command data, 1: Display data
For the I2C interface, each IC is assigned with a 7-bit slave address. The first one byte in the transfer consists of
this 7-bit slave address and the R/W bit that indicates the data transfer direction. Always input "0" to the eighth
R/W bit because the ML9488 is a write-only LSI.
The eight bits next to the slave address is a control byte. The first one bit is CO: consecutive command setting bit
and the next one bit is RS: command/data setting bit (the remaining six bits are the Don't care bits).
When CO = "0": Means the last control byte.
When CO = "1": Means the control bytes are successively input.
When RS = "0": Means the data to be input next is the command data.
When RS = "1": Means the data to be input next is the display data.
The display data can be successively input.

Data write method
• Serial interface
The data is written to the address set by the data write setting command (F3).
For the Serial interface, the data is written in units of 80 bits.
Written from D80 to SEG1, D79 to SEG2, ... , D2 to SEG79, and D1 to SEG80.
