It is recommended to use the chip by confirming that it operates on the glass substrate properly. Trace resistance, especially, VDD and VSS trace resistance, between the chip on the LCD panel and the flexible cable should be designed as low as possible. Trace resistance that cannot be very well decreased, larger size of the LCD panel, or greater trace capacitance between the microcontroller and the ML9041A device can cause device malfunction. In order to avoid the device malfunction, power noise should be reduced by serial interfacing of the microcontroller and the ML9041A device. * Do not apply short-circuiting across output pins and across an output pin and an input/output pin or the power supply pin in the output mode. 7/64 PEDL9041A-02 OKI Semiconductor ML9041A-xxA/xxB ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS DC Characteristics (GND = 0 V, VDD = 2.7 to 5.5 V, Ta = –40 to +85°C) Parameter “H” Input Voltage Symbol Condition VIH Min.

The DR is selected when both RS0 and RS1 are “H”. The IR is selected when RS0 is “L” and RS1 is “H”. The ER is selected when both RS0 and RS1 are “L”. (When RS0 is “H” and RS1 is “L”, the ML9041A is not selected.) The IR stores an instruction code and sets the address code of the display data RAM (DDRAM) or the character generator RAM (CGRAM). The microcontroller (CPU) can write to the IR but cannot read from the IR. The ER stores a contrast adjusting code and sets the address code of the arbitrator RAM (ABRAM). The CPU can write to or read from the ER. The DR stores data to be written in the DDRAM, ABRAM and CGRAM and also stores data read from the DDRAM, ABRAM and CGRAM. The data written in the DR by the CPU is automatically written in the DDRAM, ABRAM or CGRAM. When an address code is written in the IR or ER, the data of the specified address is automatically transferred from the DDRAM, ABRAM or CGRAM to the DR. The data of the DDRAM, ABRAM and CGRAM can be checked by allowing the CPU to read the data stored in the DR. After the CPU writes data in the DR, the data of the next address in the DDRAM, ABRAM or CGRAM is selected to be ready for the next writing by the CPU. Similarly, after the CPU reads the data in the DR, the data of the next address in the DDRAM, ABRAM or CGRAM is set in the DR to be ready for the next reading by the CPU. Writing in or reading from these 3 registers is controlled by changing the status of the R/W (Read/Write) pin. Table 1 R/W W pin status and register operation R/W RS0 RS1 Operation L L H Writing in the IR H L H Reading the Busy flag (BF) and the address counter (ADC) L H H Writing in the DR H H H Reading from the DR L L L Writing in the ER H L L Reading the contrast code L H L Disabled (Not in a busy state, not performing the writes) H H L Disabled (Not in a busy state, not performing the reads. Note data read by the CPU is undefined since the data bus is high impedance.) Busy Flag (BF) The status “1” of the Busy Flag (BF) indicates that the ML9041A is carrying out internal operation. When the BF is “1”, any new instruction is ignored. When R/W = “H”, RS0 = “L” and RS1 = “H”, the data in the BF is output to the DB7. New instructions should be input when the BF is “0”. When the BF is “1”, the output code of the address counter (ADC) is undefined. 14/64 PEDL9041A-02 OKI Semiconductor ML9041A-xxA/xxB Address Counter (ADC) The address counter provides a read/write address for the DDRAM, ABRAM or CGRAM and also provides a cursor display address. When an instruction code specifying DDRAM, ABRAM or CGRAM address setting is input to the pre-defined register, the register selects the specified DDRAM, ABRAM or CGRAM and transfers the address code to the ADC. The address data in the ADC is automatically incremented (or decremented) by 1 after the display data is written in or read from the DDRAM, ABRAM or CGRAM. The data in the ADC is output to DB0 to DB6 when R/W = “H”, RS0 = “L”, RS1 = “H” and BF = “0”. Timing Generator The timing generator generates timing signals for the internal operation of the ML9041A activated by the instruction sent from the CPU or for the operation of the internal circuits of the ML9041A such as DDRAM, ABRAM, CGRAM and CGROM. Timing signals are generated so that the internal operation carried out for LCD displaying will not be interfered by the internal operation initiated by accessing from the CPU. For example, when the CPU writes data in the DDRAM, the display of the LCD not corresponding to the written data is not affected. 15/64 PEDL9041A-02 OKI Semiconductor ML9041A-xxA/xxB Display Data RAM (DDRAM) This RAM stores the 8-bit character codes (see Table 2). The DDRAM addresses correspond to the display positions (digits) of the LCD as shown below. The DDRAM addresses (to be set in the ADC) are represented in hexadecimal. DB6 DB5 DB4 DB3 DB2 DB1 DB0 ADC LSB MSB Hexadecimal Hexadecimal (Example) Representation of DDRAM address = 12 ADC 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 2 1 1) Relationship between DDRAM addresses and display positions (1-line display mode) Digit 1 2 3 4 5 00 01 02 03 04 Left end 19 20 Display position 12 13 DD RAM address (hexadecimal) Right end In the 1-line display mode, the ML9041A can display up to 20 characters from digit 1 to digit 20. While the DDRAM has addresses “00” to “4F” for up to 80 character codes, the area not used for display can be used as a RAM area for general data. When the display is shifted by instruction, the relationship between the LCD display and the DDRAM address changes as shown below: Digit 1 2 3 4 19 20 (Display shifted to the right) 4F 00 01 02 Digit 1 2 3 4 5 (Display shifted to the left) 01 02 03 04 05 11 12 19 20 13 14 16/64 PEDL9041A-02 OKI Semiconductor ML9041A-xxA/xxB 2) Relationship between DDRAM addresses and display positions (2-line display mode) In the 2-line mode, the ML9041A can display up to 40 characters (20 characters per line) from digit 1 to digit 20.

When the display is shifted by instruction, the relationship between the LCD display and the DDRAM address changes as shown below: (Display shifted to the right) (Display shifted to the left) Digit 1 2 3 4 5 Line 1 27 00 01 02 03 19 20 11 12 Line 2 67 40 41 42 43 51 52 Digit 1 2 3 4 5 Line 1 01 02 03 04 05 19 20 13 14 Line 2 41 42 43 44 45 53 54 17/64 PEDL9041A-02 OKI Semiconductor ML9041A-xxA/xxB Character Generator ROM (CGROM) The CGROM generates small character patterns (5 × 7 dots, 160 patterns) or large character patterns (5 × 10 dots, 32 patterns) from the 8-bit character code signals in the DDRAM. When the 8-bit character code corresponding to a character pattern in the CGROM is written in the DDRAM, the character pattern is displayed in the display position specified by the DDRAM address. Character codes 20 to 7F and A0 to FF are contained in the character code area in the CG ROM. Character codes 20 to 7F and A0 to DF are contained in the character code area for the 5 × 7-dot character patterns. Character codes E0 to FF are contained in the ROM area for 5 × 10-dot character patterns. The general character generator ROM codes are 01A/01B. The relationship between character codes and general purpose character patterns are indicated in Table 2. 18/64 PEDL9041A-02 OKI Semiconductor ML9041A-xxA/xxB Character Generator RAM (CGRAM) The CGRAM is used to generate user-specific character patterns that are not in the CGROM. CGRAM (64 bytes = 512 bits) can store up to 8 small character patterns (5 × 8 dots) or up to 4 large character patterns (5 × 11 dots). When displaying a character pattern stored in the CGRAM, write an 8-bit character code (00 to 07 or 08 to 0F; hex.) assigned in Table 2 to the DDRAM. This enables outputting the character pattern to the LCD display position corresponding to the DDRAM address. The cursor or blink is also displayed even when a CGRAM or ABRAM address is set in the ADC. Therefore, the cursor or blink display should be inhibited while the ADC is holding a CGRAM or ABRAM address. The following describes how character patterns are written in and read from the CGRAM. 1) Small character patterns (5 × 8 dots) (See Table 3-1.) (1) A method of writing character patterns to the CGRAM from the CPU The three CGRAM address bit weights 0 to 2 select one of the lines constituting a character pattern. First, set the mode to increment or decrement from the CPU, and then input the CGRAM address. Write each line of the character pattern in the CGRAM through DB0 to DB7. The data lines DB0 to DB7 correspond to the CGRAM data bit weights 0 to 7, respectively (see Table 31). Input data “1” represents the ON status of an LCD dot and “0” represents the OFF status. Since the ADC is automatically incremented or decremented by 1 after the data is written to the CGRAM, it is not necessary to set the CGRAM address again. The bottom line of a character pattern (the CGRAM address bit weights 0 to 2 are all “1”, which means 7 in hexadecimal) is the cursor line. The ON/OFF pattern of this line is ORed with the cursor pattern for displaying on the LCD. Therefore, the pattern data for the cursor position should be all zeros to display the cursor. Whereas the data given by the CGRAM data bit weights 0 to 4 is output to the LCD as display data, the data given by the CGRAM data bit weights 5 to 7 is not. Therefore, the CGRAM data bit weights 5 to 7 can be used as a RAM area. (2) A method of displaying CGRAM character patterns on the LCD The CGRAM is selected when the higher-order 4 bits of a character code are all zeros. Since bit weight 3 of a character code is not used, the character pattern “0” in Table 3-1 can be selected using the character code “00” or “08” in hexadecimal. When the 8-bit character code corresponding to a character pattern in the CGRAM is written to the DDRAM, the character pattern is displayed in the display position specified by the DDRAM address. (The DDRAM data bit weights 0 to 2 correspond to the CGRAM address bit weights 3 to 5, respectively.) 19/64 PEDL9041A-02 OKI Semiconductor ML9041A-xxA/xxB 2) Large character patterns (5 × 11 dots) (See Table 3-2.) (1) A method of writing character patterns to the CGRAM from the CPU The four CGRAM address bit weights 0 to 3 select one of the lines constituting a character pattern. First, set the mode to increment or decrement from the CPU, and then input the CGRAM address. Write each line of the character pattern code in the CGRAM through DB0 to DB7. The data lines DB0 to DB7 correspond to the CGRAM data bit weights 0 to 7, respectively (see Table 32). Input data “1” represents the ON status of an LCD dot and “0” represents the OFF status. Since the ADC is automatically incremented or decremented by 1 after the data is written to the CGRAM, it is not necessary to set the CGRAM address again. The bottom line of a character pattern (the CGRAM address bit weights 0 to 3 are all “1”, which means A in hexadecimal) is a cursor line. The ON/OFF pattern of this line is ORed with the cursor pattern for displaying on the LCD. Therefore, the pattern data for the cursor position should be all zeros to display the cursor. Whereas CGRAM data bit weights 0 to 4 are output as display data to the LCD when CGRAM address bit weights 0 to 3 are “0” to “A” in hexadecimal, the data given by the CGRAM data bit weights 5 to 7 or the CGRAM addresses B to F in hexadecimal is not. These bits can be written and read as a RAM area. (2) A method of displaying CGRAM character patterns on the LCD The CGRAM is selected when the higher-order 4 bits of a character code are all zeros. Since bit weights 0 and 3 of a character code are not used, the character pattern “g” in Table 3-2 can be selected with a character code “02”, “03”, “0A” or “0B” in hexadecimal. When the 8-bit character code corresponding to a character pattern in the CGRAM is written to the DDRAM, the character pattern is displayed in the display position specified by the DDRAM address. (The DDRAM data bit weights 1 and 2 correspond to the CGRAM address bit weights 4 and 5, respectively.) 20/64 PEDL9041A-02 OKI Semiconductor ML9041A-xxA/xxB Arbitrator RAM (ABRAM) The arbitrator RAM (ABRAM) stores arbitrator display data. 100 dots can be displayed in both 1-line and 2-line display modes. The arbitrator RAM has the addresses (hexadecimal) from “00” to “1F” and the valid display address area is from 00 to 19 (0H to 13H). The area of 20 to 31 (14H to 1FH) not used for display can be used as a data RAM area for general data. Even if the display is shifted by instruction, the arbitrator display is not shifted. A capacity of 8 bits by 32 addresses (= 256 bits) is available for data write. First set the mode to increment or decrement from the CPU, and then input the ABRAM address. Write Display-ON data in the ABRAM through DB0 to DB7. DB0 to DB7 correspond to the ABRAM data bit weights 0 to 7 respectively. Input data “1” represents the ON status of an LCD dot and “0” represents the OFF status. Since ADC is automatically incremented or decremented by 1 after the data is written to the ABRAM, it is not necessary to set the ABRAM address again. Whereas ABRAM data bit weights 0 to 4 are output as display data to the LCD, the ABRAM data bit weights 5 to 7 are not. These bits can be used as a RAM area. The cursor or blink is also displayed even when a CGRAM or ABRAM address is set in the ADC. Therefore, the cursor or blink display should be inhibited while the ADC is holding a CGRAM or ABRAM address.

The operation of this circuit is controlled by the program of the CPU. The cursor/blink display is carried out in the position corresponding to the DDRAM address set in the ADC (Address Counter). For example, when the ADC stores a value of “07” (hexadecimal), the cursor or blink is displayed as follows: DB6 ADC 0 DB0 0 0 0 0 Digit 1 2 In 1-line display mode 1 1 1 7 9 19 20 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 12 13 3 4 5 6 7 8 Cursor/blink position Digit 1 2 In 2-line display mode 9 19 20 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 12 13 Second line 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 52 53 First line 3 4 5 6 7 8 Cursor/blink position Note: The cursor or blink is also displayed even when a CGRAM or ABRAM address is set in the ADC. Therefore, the cursor or blink display should be inhibited while the ADC is holding a CGRAM or ABRAM address. 27/64 PEDL9041A-02 OKI Semiconductor ML9041A-xxA/xxB LCD Display Circuit (COM1 to COM17, SEG1 to SEG100, SSR and CSR) The ML9041A has 17 common signal outputs and 100 segment signal outputs to display 20 characters (in the 1line display mode) or 40 characters (in the 2-line display mode). The character pattern is converted into serial data and transferred in series through the shift register. The transfer direction of serial data is determined by the SSR pin. The shift direction of common signals is determined by the CSR pin. The following tables show the transfer and shift directions: SSR Transfer direction L SEG1 → SEG100 H SEG100 → SEG1 CSR duty AS bit Shift Direction Arbitrator’s common pin L 1/9 L COM1 → COM9 COM9 L 1/9 H COM1 → COM9 COM1 L 1/12 L COM1 → COM12 COM12 L 1/12 H COM1 → COM12 COM1 L 1/17 L COM1 → COM17 COM17 L 1/17 H COM1 → COM17 COM1 H 1/9 L COM9 → COM1 COM1 H 1/9 H COM9 → COM1 COM9 H 1/12 L COM12 → COM1 COM1 H 1/12 H COM12 → COM1 COM12 H 1/17 L COM17 → COM1 COM1 H 1/17 H COM17 → COM1 COM17 * Refer to the Expansion Instruction Codes section about the AS bit. Signals to be input to the SSR and CSR pins should be determined at power-on and be kept unchanged. 28/64 PEDL9041A-02 OKI Semiconductor ML9041A-xxA/xxB Built-in Reset Circuit The ML9041A is automatically initialized when the power is turned on. During initialization, the Busy Flag (BF) is “1” and the ML9041A does not accept any instruction from the CPU (other than the Read BF instruction). The Busy Flag is “1” for about 15 ms after the VDD becomes 2.7 V or higher. During this initialization, the ML9041A performs the following instructions: 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6) 7) 8) 9) 10) 11) Display clearing CPU interface data length = 8 bits 1-line LCD display Font size = 5 × 7 dots ADC counting = Increment Display shifting = None Display = Off Cursor = Off Blinking = Off Arbitrator = Displayed in the lower line Setting 1FH (hexadecimal) to the Contrast Data (DL = “1”) (N = “0”) (F = “0”) (I/D = “1”) (S = “0”) (D = “0”) (C = “0”) (B = “0”) (AS = “0”) To use the built-in reset circuit, the power supply conditions shown below should be satisfied. Otherwise, the built-in reset circuit may not work properly. In such a case, initialize the ML9041A with the instructions from the CPU. The use of a battery always requires such initialization from the CPU.

The ML9041A first transfers the higher-order 4 bits of 8-bit data (DB4 to DB7 in the case of 8-bit interface data length) and then the lower-order 4 bits of the data (DB0 to DB3 in the case of 8-bit interface data length). The lower-order 4 bits of data should always be transferred even when only the transfer of the higher-order 4 bits of data is required. (Example: Reading the Busy Flag) Two transfers of 4 bits of data complete the transfer of a set of 8-bit data. Therefore, when only one access is made, the following data transfer cannot be completed properly. 30/64 PEDL9041A-02 OKI Semiconductor ML9041A-xxA/xxB RS1 RS0 R/W E Busy (Internal operation) No Busy DR7 IR6 ADC6 DR6 DB5 IR5 ADC5 DR5 DB4 IR4 ADC4 DR4 DB3 IR3 ADC3 DR3 DB2 IR2 ADC2 DR2 DB1 IR1 ADC1 DR1 DB0 IR0 ADC0 DR0 DB7 IR7 DB6 Writing In IR (Instruction Register) Busy Reading BF (Busy Flag) and ADC (Address Counter) Writing In DR (Data Register) Figure 2 8-Bit Data Transfer RS1 RS0 R/W E Busy (Internal operation) DB7 No Busy ADC3 DR7 DR3 IR2 ADC6 ADC2 DR6 DR2 IR5 IR1 ADC5 ADC1 DR5 DR1 IR4 IR0 ADC4 ADC0 DR4 DR0 IR7 IR3 DB6 IR6 DB5 DB4 Writing In IR (Instruction Register) Busy Reading BF (Busy Flag) and ADC (Address Counter) Writing In DR (Data Register) Figure 3 4-Bit Data Transfer 31/64 PEDL9041A-02 OKI Semiconductor ML9041A-xxA/xxB Serial Interface Mode In the Serial I/F Mode, the ML9041A interfaces with the CPU via the CS, SHT, SI and SO pins. Writing and reading operations are executed in units of 16 bits after the CS signal falls down. If the CS signal rises up before the completion of 16-bit unit access, this access is ignored. When the BF bit is “1”, the ML9041A cannot accept any other instructions. Before inputting a new instruction, check that the BF bit is “0”. Any access when the BF bit is “1” is ignored. Data format is LSB-first.

Note 3: After one instruction is input, the next instruction must be input after the CS pin is pulled at a “H” level. 32/64 PEDL9041A-02 OKI Semiconductor ML9041A-xxA/xxB Instruction Codes Table of Instruction Codes Code Instruction RS1 RS0 R/W DB7 DB6 DB5 DB4 DB3 DB2 DB1 DB0 Display Clear 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 Cursor Home 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 X Entry Mode Setting 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 I/D S Display 1 ON/OFF Control 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 D C B Cursor/Display Shift 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 X X Function Setting 1 0 0 0 0 1 DL X X CGRAM Address Setting 1 0 0 0 1 DDRAM Address Setting 1 0 0 1 ADD Busy Flag/ Address Read 1 0 1 BF ADC RAM Data Write 1 1 0 WRITE DATA RAM Data Read 1 1 1 READ DATA 0 0 Arbitrator 0 Display Line Set Contrast Control 0 Data Write Contrast Control 0 Data Read 0 0 S/C R/L N F ACG 0 0 0 0 1 Function Execution Time f = 270 kHz Clears all the displayed digits of the LCD and sets the DDRAM address 0 in 1.52 ms the address counter.

The ML9041A starts operation as instructed by the code received. The busy status of the ML9041A is rather longer than the cycle time of the CPU, since the internal processing of the ML9041A starts at a timing which does not affect the display on the LCD. In the busy status (Busy Flag is “1”), the ML9041A cannot input the Busy Flag Read instruction only. Therefore, the CPU should ensure that the Busy Flag is “0” before sending an instruction code to the ML9041A. 1) Display Clear Instruction Code: RS1 RS0 R/W DB7 DB6 DB5 DB4 DB3 DB2 DB1 DB0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 When this instruction is executed, the LCD display including arbitrator display is cleared and the I/D entry mode is set to “Increment”. The value of “S” (Display shifting) remains unchanged. The position of the cursor or blink being displayed moves to the left end of the LCD (or the left end of the line 1 in the 2-line display mode). Note: All DDRAM and ABRAM data turn to “20” and “00” in hexadecimal, respectively. The value of the address counter (ADC) turns to the one corresponding to the address “00” (hexadecimal) of the DDRAM. The execution time of this instruction is 1.52 ms (maximum) at an oscillation frequency of 270 kHz. 2) Cursor Home Instruction code: RS1 RS0 R/W DB7 DB6 DB5 DB4 DB3 DB2 DB1 DB0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 × ×: Don’t Care When this instruction is executed, the cursor or blink position moves to the left end of the LCD (or the left end of line 1 in the 2-line display mode).

Note: The value of the address counter (ADC) goes to the one corresponding to the address “00” (hexadecimal) of the DDRAM). The execution time of this instruction is 1.52 ms (maximum) at an oscillation frequency of 270 kHz. 34/64 PEDL9041A-02 OKI Semiconductor ML9041A-xxA/xxB 3) Entry Mode Setting Instruction code: RS1 RS0 R/W DB7 DB6 DB5 DB4 DB3 DB2 DB1 DB0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 I/D S (1) When the I/D is set, the cursor or blink shifts to the right by 1 character position (ID= “1”; increment) or to the left by 1 character position (I/D= “0”; decrement) after an 8-bit character code is written to or read from the DDRAM. At the same time, the address counter (ADC) is also incremented by 1 (when I/D = “1”; increment) or decremented by 1 (when I/D = “0”; decrement). After a character pattern is written to or read from the CGRAM, the address counter (ADC) is incremented by 1 (when I/D = “1”; increment) or decremented by 1 (when I/D = “0”; decrement). Also after data is written to or read from the ABRAM, the address counter (ADC) is incremented by 1 (when I/D = “1”; increment) or decremented by 1 (when I/D = “0”; decrement). (2) When S = “1”, the cursor or blink stops and the entire display shifts to the left (I/D = “1”) or to the right (I/D = “0”) by 1 character position after a character code is written to the DDRAM. In the case of S = “1”, when a character code is read from the DDRAM, when a character pattern is written to or read from the CGRAM or when data is written to or read from the ABRAM, normal read/write is carried out without shifting of the entire display. (The entire display does not shift, but the cursor or blink shifts to the right (I/D = “1”) or to the left (I/D = “0”) by 1 character position.) When S = “0”, the display does not shift, but normal write/read is performed. Note: The execution time of this instruction is 37 µs (maximum) at an oscillation frequency of 270 kHz. 4) Display ON/OFF Control Instruction code: RS1 RS0 R/W DB7 DB6 DB5 DB4 DB3 DB2 DB1 DB0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 D C B (1) The “D” bit (DB2) of this instruction determines whether or not to display character patterns on the LCD. When the “D” bit is “1”, character patterns are displayed on the LCD. When the “D” bit is “0”, character patterns are not displayed on the LCD and the cursor/blinking also disappear. Note: Unlike the Display Clear instruction, this instruction does not change the character code in the DDRAM and ABRAM. (2) When the “C” bit (DB1) is “0”, the cursor turns off. When both the “C” and “D” bits are “1”, the cursor turns on. (3) When the “B” bit (DB0) is “0”, blinking is canceled. When both the “B” and “D” bits are “1”, blinking is performed. In the Blinking mode, all dots including those of the cursor, the character pattern and the cursor are alternately displayed. Note: The execution time of this instruction is 37 µs (maximum) at an oscillation frequency of 270 kHz. 35/64 PEDL9041A-02 OKI Semiconductor ML9041A-xxA/xxB 5) Cursor/Display Shift Instruction code: RS1 RS0 R/W DB7 DB6 DB5 DB4 DB3 DB2 DB1 DB0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 S/C R/L × × ×: Don’t Care S/C = “0”, R/L = “0” This instruction shifts left the cursor and blink positions by 1 (decrements the content of the ADC by 1). This instruction shifts right the cursor and blink positions by 1 (increments the content of the ADC by 1). This instruction shifts left the entire display by 1 character position. The cursor and blink positions move to the left together with the entire display. The Arbitrator display is not shifted. (The content of the ADC remains unchanged.) This instruction shifts right the entire display by 1 character position. The cursor and blink positions move to the right together with the entire display. The Arbitrator display is not shifted. (The content of the ADC remains unchanged.) S/C = “0”, R/L = “1” S/C = “1”, R/L = “0” S/C = “1”, R/L = “1” In the 2-line mode, the cursor or blink moves from the first line to the second line when the cursor at digit 40 (27; hex) of the first line is shifted right. When the entire display is shifted, the character pattern, cursor or blink will not move between the lines (from line 1 to line 2 or vice versa). The execution time of this instruction is 37 µs at an oscillation frequency (OSC) of 270 kHz. Note: 6) Function Setting Instruction code: RS1 RS0 R/W DB7 DB6 DB5 DB4 DB3 DB2 DB1 DB0 1 0 0 0 0 1 DL N F × × ×: Don’t Care (1) When the “DL” bit (DB4) of this instruction is “1”, the data transfer to and from the CPU is performed once by the use of 8 bits DB7 to DB0. When the “DL” bit (DB4) of this instruction is “0”, the data transfer to and from the CPU is performed twice by the use of 4 bits DB7 to DB4. (2) The 2-line display mode is selected when the “N” bit (DB3) of this instruction is “1”. The 1-line display mode is selected when the “N” bit is “0”. (3) The character font represented by 5 × 7 dots is selected when the “F” bit (DB2) of this instruction is “1”. The character font represented by 5 × 10 dots is selected when the “F” bit is “1” and the “N” bit is “0”. After the ML9041A is powered on, this function setting should be carried out before execution of any instruction except the Busy Flag Read. After this function setting, no instructions other than the DL Set instruction can be executed. In the Serial I/F Mode, DL setting is ignored.

The CGRAM addresses are valid until DDRAM or ABRAM addresses are set. The CPU writes or reads character patterns starting from the one represented by the CGRAM address bits C5 to C0 set in the instruction code at that time. Note: The execution time of this instruction is 37 µs at an oscillation frequency (OSC) of 270 kHz. 8) DDRAM Address Setting RS1 RS0 R/W DB7 DB6 DB5 DB4 DB3 DB2 DB1 DB0 1 0 0 1 D6 D5 D4 D3 D2 D1 D0 Instruction code: This instruction sets the DDRAM address to the data represented by the bits D6 to D0 (binary). The DDRAM addresses are valid until CGRAM or ABRAM addresses are set. The CPU writes or reads character codes starting from the one represented by the DDRAM address bits D6 to D0 set in the instruction code at that time. In the 1-line mode (the “N” bit is “0”), the DDRAM address represented by bits D6 to D0 (binary) should be in the range “00” to “4F” in hexadecimal. In the 2-line mode (the “N” bit is “1”), the DDRAM address represented by bits D6 to D0 (binary) should be in the range “00” to “27” or “40” to “67” in hexadecimal. If an address other than above is input, the ML9041A cannot properly write a character code in or read it from the DDRAM. Note: The execution time of this instruction is 37 µs at an oscillation frequency (OSC) of 270 kHz. 9) DDRAM/ABRAM/CGRAM Data Write Instruction code: RS1 RS0 R/W DB7 DB6 DB5 DB4 DB3 DB2 DB1 DB0 1 1 0 E7 E6 E5 E4 E3 E2 E1 E0 A character code (E7 to E0) is written to the DDRAM, Display-ON data (E7 to E0) to the ABRAM or a character pattern (E7 to E0) to the CGRAM. The DDRAM, ABRAM or CGRAM is selected at the preceding address setting. After data is written, the address counter (ADC) is incremented or decremented as set by the Entry Mode Setting instruction (see 3). Note: The execution time of this instruction is 37 µs at an oscillation frequency (OSC) of 270 kHz. 37/64 PEDL9041A-02 OKI Semiconductor ML9041A-xxA/xxB 10) Busy Flag/Address Counter Read (Execution time: 0 µs) Instruction code: RS1 RS0 R/W DB7 DB6 DB5 DB4 DB3 DB2 DB1 DB0 1 0 1 BF O6 O5 O4 O3 O2 O1 O0 The “BF” bit (DB7) of this instruction tells whether the ML9041A is busy in internal operation (BF = “1”) or not (BF = “0”). When the “BF” bit is “1”, the ML9041A cannot accept any other instructions. Before inputting a new instruction, check that the “BF” bit is “0”. When the “BF” bit is “0”, the ML9041A outputs the correct value of the address counter. The value of the address counter is equal to the DDRAM, ABRAM or CGRAM address. Which of the DDRAM, ABRAM and CGRAM addresses is set in the counter is determined by the preceding address setting. When the “BF” bit is “1”, the value of the address counter is not always correct because it may have been incremented or decremented by 1 during internal operation. 11) DDRAM/ABRAM/CGRAM Data Read Instruction code: RS1 RS0 R/W DB7 DB6 DB5 DB4 DB3 DB2 DB1 DB0 1 1 1 P7 P6 P5 P4 P3 P2 P1 P0 A character code (P7 to P0) is read from the DDRAM, Display-ON data (P7 to P0) from the ABRAM or a character pattern (P7 to P0) from the CGRAM. The DDRAM, ABRAM or CGRAM is selected at the preceding address setting. After data is read, the address counter (ADC) is incremented or decremented as set by the Entry Mode Setting instruction (see 3). Note: Conditions for reading correct data (1) The DDRAM, ABRAM or CGRAM Setting instruction is input before this data read instruction is input. (2) When reading a character code from the DDRAM, the Cursor/Display Shift instruction (see 5) is input before this Data Read instruction is input. (3) When two or more consecutive RAM Data Read instructions are executed, the following read data is correct. Correct data is not output under conditions other than the cases (1), (2) and (3) above. Note: The execution time of this instruction is 37 µs at an oscillation frequency (OSC) of 270 kHz. 38/64 PEDL9041A-02 OKI Semiconductor ML9041A-xxA/xxB Expansion Instruction Codes The busy status of the ML9041A is rather longer than the cycle time of the CPU, since the internal processing of the ML9041A starts at a timing which does not affect the display on the LCD. In the busy status (Busy Flag is “1”), the ML9041A executes the Busy Flag Read instruction only. Therefore, the CPU should ensure that the Busy Flag is “0” before sending an expansion instruction code to the ML9041A. 1) Arbitrator Display Line Set Expansion instruction code: RS1 RS0 R/W DB7 DB6 DB5 DB4 DB3 DB2 DB1 DB0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 AS This expansion instruction code sets the Arbitrator display line. The relationship between the status of this bit and the common outputs is as follows: For display examples, refer to LCD Drive Waveforms section. CSR duty AS bit Shift direction Arbitrator’s common pin L 1/9 L COM1→COM9 COM9 L 1/9 H COM1→COM9 COM1 L 1/12 L COM1→COM12 COM12 L 1/12 H COM1→COM12 COM1 L 1/17 L COM1→COM17 COM17 L 1/17 H COM1→COM17 COM1 H 1/9 L COM9→COM1 COM1 H 1/9 H COM9→COM1 COM9 H 1/12 L COM12→COM1 COM1 H 1/12 H COM12→COM1 COM12 H 1/17 L COM17→COM1 COM1 H 1/17 H COM17→COM1 COM17 Note: The execution time of this instruction is 37 µs at an oscillation frequency (OSC) of 270 kHz. 2) Contrast Adjusting Data Write Expansion instruction code: RS1 RS0 R/W DB7 DB6 DB5 DB4 DB3 DB2 DB1 DB0 0 0 0 0 0 1 F4 F3 F2 F1 F0 This instruction writes contrast adjusting data (F4 to F0) to the contrast register. After contrast adjusting data is written in the register, the potential (VLCD) output to the V5 pin varies according to the data written. The VLCD becomes maximum when the content of the contrast register is “1F” (hexadecimal) and becomes minimum when it is “00” (hexadecimal). Note: The execution time of this instruction is 37 µs at an oscillation frequency (OSC) of 270 kHz. 39/64 PEDL9041A-02 OKI Semiconductor ML9041A-xxA/xxB 3) Contrast Adjusting Data Read Expansion instruction code: RS1 RS0 R/W DB7 DB6 DB5 DB4 DB3 DB2 DB1 DB0 0 0 1 0 0 0 G4 G3 G2 G1 G0 This instruction reads contrast adjusting data (G4 to G0) from the contrast register. Note: The execution time of this instruction is 37 µs at an oscillation frequency (OSC) of 270 kHz. 4) ABRAM Address Setting Expansion instruction code: RS1 RS0 R/W DB7 DB6 DB5 DB4 DB3 DB2 DB1 DB0 0 0 1 0 1 1 H4 H3 H2 H1 H0 This instruction sets the ABRAM address to the data represented by the bits H4 to H0 (binary). The ABRAM addresses are valid until CGRAM or DDRAM addresses are set. The CPU writes or reads the Display-ON data starting from the one represented by the ABRAM address bits H4 to H0 set in the instruction code at that time. When the ABRAM address represented by bits H4 to H0 (binary) is in the range “00” to “13” in hexadecimal, data is output to the LCD as the arbitrator. Note: The execution time of this instruction is 37 µs at an oscillation frequency (OSC) of 270 kHz. 40/64 PEDL9041A-02 OKI Semiconductor ML9041A-xxA/xxB Examples of Combinations of ML9041A and LCD Panel (1) Driving the LCD of one 20-character line under the conditions of the 1-line display mode and the character font of 5 × 7 dots (1/9 duty, AS = “0”, CSR = “L”, SSR = “H”) COM1 Character COM8 COM9 Cursor Arbitrator SEG100 SEG1 ML9041A • COM10 to COM17 output Display-OFF common signals.
