Ordering number : ENN*6710
LC868901/51
CMOS IC
LC868901/51
Row Driver IC for Dot Matrix Graphic LCD
Preliminary
Overview
The LC868901 sereis is a common driver for the liquid crystal dot-matrix graphic display. It generates 65 commons
maximum. The LC868901series has the RC-oscillator circuit attached resistor and the capacitor outside, and
generates the timing signals and LCD powers for the LC868900 segmentdrivers.
As the LC868901 series is fabricated using CMOS process technology, combining it with a CMOS microcontroller
produces an LCD device of low power demand.

Block Descriptions
1. Interfacing block
The interfacing block is composed by an instruction register and five data registers. The instruction register selects
the data register to transfer the following data.
a. Instruction register
The instruction register specifies five kinds of the data registers and holds the data until other instruction data is set to
the instruction register. Also, this instruction register can be read a busy flag.
• instruction setting conditions
1. Set CS to ‘0’ (low level).
for chip selecting
2. Set WR to ‘0’.
for write operating
3. Set RS to ‘1’.
for instruction specifying
4. Set DB to the instruction data
b. Data registers
The five data-registers specify the parameters for displaying LCD, which are five of mode, display pitches, display
number, time division, and contrast.
• data setting conditions
1. Set CS to ‘0’ (low level).
for chip selecting
2. Set WR to ‘0’.
for write operating
3. Set RS to ‘0’.
for parameter specifying
4. Set DB to the parameter data
Note that the instruction and data can be written while the RC oscillation runs.
Busy flag should be set during writing to the data register.
The instruction data, code, is shown below.

Resistor and capacitor must be mounted externally. The oscillator should be stop in stand-by state. See later chapter
for more details.

CL2, M for LCD displaying should be generated to the LC868900 segment driver.
In stand-by state, all the generated signals freeze.
3. Busy flag
Busy flag is outputted to DB7 when reading operation is established with RS = 1.
The busy flag should be set to ‘1’ during writing to the data register, not the instruction register.
When the writing operation is completed, the busy flag should be reset to ‘0’.
When the busy flag is set to ‘1’, new parameter data cannot be written. Thus, write the data after reading the busy flag
and making sure that it is ‘0’.
• busy-flag reading condition
1. Set CS to ‘0’ (low level).
for chip selecting
2. Set RD to ‘0’.
for read operating
3. Set RS to ‘1’.

The boosted powers are supplied to the following blocks.
•LCD drivers
•Ladder resistors
•LCD contrast controller

4. VEE2 supplied by the external power unit
The external power unit must be attached between VSS
and VEE2 if the LCD display voltage must be provided to
the VDD-- VSS voltage or more without using builtin power booster. See the following figure.
Set the external voltage as below.

• Contrast control
The LCD contrast can be specified by CCR, which is allowed to 32-step contrast.
If more than 32-step contrast must be needed, attach and adjust a variable resistor between VEE2 and the
specified power supply. See Contrast control register.

7. Stand-by function
Stand-by function is prepared to reduce the dissipation current while LCD off. ‘Stand-by’ means all the LC868901
function freeze. Thus, in stand-by state, the LCD controller and drivers stop operation. Two ways to make the
LC868901 stand-by is prepared.
1) Set MODE2 (bit2 of mode register) to ‘1’.
2) Supply STB to low.
Also, two ways to release stand-by is prepared.
1) Reset
Supply RES to low. It makes the LC868901 reset.
Supply RES to high to make the LC868901 run.
2) Reading
Read the target LC868901. (i.e., CS = 0 and RD = 0)
[Notes] DB7 should be set output state at reading. So, ports connected to DB7 of the LC868901 must be set to the
input state.
8. Reset function
Reset to initialize when the power is turned on.

3. stand-by

4. LCD controller

5. LCD display off
6. LCD power XV1 to XV5=VDD, VEE1=VDD
7. scanning direction C65 to C1
8. power booster stop
9. LCD power source ladder resisters directly
Note that resetting may make all bits of each register except MODE3 to MODE0 change during the operation.
Re-set all of registers to re-display or re-operate.
