When installing the module, pay attention and handle carefully not to allow any undue stress such as twist or bend. 3) Since the front polarizer is easily damaged. Please pay attention not to scratch on its face. It is recommended to use a transparent acrylic resin board or other type of protective panel on the surface of the LCD module to protect the polarizer, LCD panel, etc.. 4) If the surface of the LCD panel is required IO be cleaned, wipe it swiftly with cotton or other soft cloth. If it is not still clear completely, blow on and wipe it. 5) Water droplets, etc. must be wiped off immediately since they may cause color changes, staining, etc., if it remained for a long time. 6) Since LCD is made of glass substrate, dropping the module or banging it against hard objects may cause cracking or fragmentation. 7) Since CMOS LSIs are equipped in this module, following countermeasures most be taken to avoid electrostatics charge. 2) I SPEC SHARP 210~ LC98312 MODEI. x0. LM8V311 PAGE 2 1I operator Electrostatic shielding clothes shall be had because it is feared that the static electricity is electrified to human body in case that operator have a insulating garment. 2. Equipment There is a possibility that the static electricity is charged to equipment which have a function of peeling or mechanism of friction(EX: Conveyer, soldering iron, working table), so the countemxasure countermeasure(electrostaticearth:l X 10’ Q) should be made. 3. Floor Floor is a important part to leak static electricity which is generated from human body or equipment. There is a possibility that the static electricity is charged to them without leakage in case of insulating floor, so the countermeasure(electrostatic earth:1 X 10’ Q) should be made. 4Humidity Humidity of working room may lower electrostatics generating material’s resistance and have something to prevent electrifying. So, humidity should be kept over 50 % because humidity less than 50 % may increase material’s electrostatic earth resistance and it become easy to electrify. 5.Transportationlstorage The measure should be made for storage materials because there is a possibility that the static electricity, which electrify to human body or storage materials like container by friction or perling, cause the dielectric charge. 6. Others The laminator is attached on the surface of LCD module to prwent from scratches, fouling and dust. It should be peeled off unhurriedly with using static eliminator. And also, static eliminator should be installed to prevent LCD module from electrifying at assembling line. 8) Don’t use any materials which emit gas from epoxy rcsin(amines’ hardener) and silicon adhesive agent(dealcohol or deoxym) to prevent change polarizer color owing to gas. 9) Since leakage current, which may be caused by routing of CCFT cables, etc., may affect the brightness of display, the inverter has to be designed taking the leakage current into consideration. Thorough evaluation of the LCD module/inverter built into its host equipment shall be conducted, therefore, to ensure the specified brightness. 10) Avoid to expose the module to the direct sun-light, strong ultraviolet light, etc. for a long time. 11) If stored at temperatures under specified storage temperature, the LC may freeze and be deteriorated. If storage temperature exceed the specified rating. the molecular orientation of the LC may change to that of a liquid, and they may not revert to their original state. Therefore, the module should be always stored at norm; room temperature. 12) Disassembling the LCD module can cause permanent damage and should be strictly avoided. SPEC SHARP No. LC98312 MODEL No. LhI8V3 PAGE 11 3 13) Procedure insert mating connector When the mating connector is inserted it should be parallel to the used connector of LCD module and it should be inserted horizontally. when the mating connector is attempted to be fiied to LCD comxctor, it should be inserted properly io order not to create a gap as shown “A”. Please insert the coooector as both edge is placed to the connect position of LCD comxctor. 14) This specification describes display quality in case of no gray scale. Since display quality can be affected by gray scale methods, display quality shall be carefully evaluated for the usability of LCD module in case gmy scale is displayed on the LCD module. 15) The module should be driven according to the specified ratings to avoid permamnt damage. DC voltage drive leads to rapid deteriomtion of LC, so ensure that the drive is alternating waveform by continuous application of the signal M. ~sneciallv the Dower ON/OFF seauence shown on Page 25 should be kept to avoid latch-w of drive LSIs and aonlication of DC voltaee to LCD onnel. 1 SPEC SHARP OConrenrs l.Application t.Coostruction and Outline 3.Mechanical Specifications 4Absolute Maximum Ratings 4-LElectrical absolute maximum ratings 4-Z.Enviroment Conditions S.EIectricaI Specifications .5-LEIectrical characteristics .5-Z.Interface signals 6.Module Driving Method 6-LCircuit configuration 6-Z.Display face configuration 6-3.Input data and control signal 7.0ptical Characteristics &Characteristics of Backlight 9.Suppiy voltage sequence condition lO.Applicable inspection standard ll.Lot Number 12.Touch Panel Specifications No. LC98312 Page 5 6 7 8 10 16 18 23 25 26 27 .MODEL PAGE No. LM8V3 11 4 1 SPEC No. .MODEL LC98312 SHARP I IApplication This data sheet is to introduce the specification PAGE No. LiiSV311 5 , I of L~M8V311. passive Matrix type Color LCD module. 2.Cortstruction and Outline Construction: 640 X 480 dots color display module consisting of an LCD panel, PWB@rixtted wiring board) with electric comuonems mounted onto, TCP(tapc carrier package) to connect the LCD panel and PWB electrically. and plastic chassis with CCFT back light and bezel to fix them mechanically.

Circuit configuration Fig.10 shows the block diagram of the module’s circuitry. 6-2. Display face configuration The display consists of 640 X 3(R,G,B) X 480 dots as shown in Fig. 2.. The interface is single panel with double drive to be driven at 1/244duty ratio. 6-3. Input data and control signal The LCD driver is 240 bits LSI, consisting of shift regisrers, latch circuits and LCD driver circuits. Input data for each row 640 X 3 (R,G,B) will be sequentially transferred in the form of 8 bit parallel data through shift registers from top left of the display together with clock signal (XCK). When input of one row 640 X 3 (R,G,B) is completed, the data will be latched in the form of parallel data corresponding to the signal electrodes by the falling edge of latch signal (LP) then, the corresponding drive signals will be transmitted to the 640 X 3 lines of column electrodes of the LCD panel by the LCD drive circuits. At this time, scan start-up signal (I’D) has been transferred from the scan signal driver to the 1st TOWof scan electrodes, and the contents of the data signals are displayed on the 1st row of the display face according to the combinations of voltages applied to the scan and signal electrodes of the LCD. While the data of 1st row are being displayed, the data of 2nd row arc cntercd. When data for 640 X 3 dots have beon transferred, they will be latched by the falling edge of LP, switching the display to the 2nd row. Such data input will be repeated up to the 244th row of each display segment, from upper row to lower rows. to complete one frame of display by time sharing method. Simultaneously the same scanning sequence occur at the lower panel. Then data input proceeds to the next display frame. YD generates scan signal to drive horizontal electrodes. Since DC voltage. if applied to LCD panel, causes chemical reaction in LC materials, causing deterioration of the materials, drive wave-form shall be inverted at ewry display frame to prevent the generation of such DC voltage. Control signal ,M plays such a role. Because of the characteristics of the CMOS driver LSI. the power consumption of the display module goes up with the clock frequency of XCK. To minimize data transfer speed of XCK clock the LSI has the system of transferring 8 bit parallel data through the 8 lines of shift registers. Thanks to this system the power consumption of the display module is minimized. In this circuit configuration, 8 bit display data shall input to data input pins of DUO-7 and DLO-7. Furthermore, the display module has bus linr system for data input to minimizc the power consumption data input terminals of each driver LSI being activated only when relevant data input is fed. with SPEC No. SHARP MODEL. No. LC98312 PAGE Li’dSV3 11 17 Data input for column electrodes and chip sekc~ of driver LSI are made as follows: The driver LSI at the left end of the display face is first selected, and the adjacent driver LSI right next side is selected when data of 240 dot (3OXCK) is fed. Ths process is sequentially continued until data is fed to the driver LSI at the right end of the display face. This process is followed simultaneously both at the top and bottom column drivers LSI’S. Thus data input will be made through 8 bit bus line sequentially from the left end of the display face. Since this display module contains no refresh RAM, it requires the above data and timing pulse inputs even for static display.
