DESCRIPTION

The S1D15G14 is the LCD drivers equipped with the LCD drive power circuit to realize color display with one
chip.
The S1D15G14 can be connected to a microprocessor directly, display data are stored in the on-chip display
data RAM (=DDRAM). And 312 segment outputs and 82 common outputs are generated for driving LCD. It
incorporates the DDRAM with capacity of 3124(16 gray scale)84. A single dot of pixel on the LCD
corresponds to 4bits of the DDRAM, enabling to display 104(RGB)82 pixels with one chip. Also accurate
LCD driving voltages are generated with built-in power supply circuit.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

8.1

Serial Data Input

Commands and data are input and output in series. However ,the contents of the display RAM cannot be read.
For the serial interface, the following two modes are available. These modes can be selected when the pin S89
is set to HIGH or LOW.
1 9-bit Interface
_____
___
3 pins of CS, SCL and SIO are used. The data format becomes D/C (data/command identification bit) +
8 bits, or 9-bit unit.
2 8-bit Interface
_____
4 pins of CS, SCL, SIO and A0 are used. The data format is a 8-bit one, and the data/command
identification is made with levels of the A0 signal.
8.1.1 Serial Interface
Write Data Mode
1 In case of 9-bit Interface_____
When SCL rises after CS changes to LOW, the data of SIO is taken in. Data are transmitted from the
MPU to the SIO pin synchronously as SCL falls, and S1D15G14 takes in signals from the SIO pin as SCL
rises. In addition to the D/C signal of data/command identification bit, 8-bit_____
data is first transmitted as the
most significant bit to the SIO pin. After the data transmission ends, set the CS pin to the HIGH level.
The following shows the timing charts.

Parallel Interface

When viewed from the MPU, S1D15G14 accesses the built-in display memory through the internal bus holder,
and a high-speed data transfer, which requests no wait time, is possible. The write and read timing charts are
as follows (and show examples of operation with the 80-series MPU interface).

MPU Interface

This paragraph explains relations between data that the MPU read in the display memory of S1D15G14 and
data to be practically stored in the display memory.
8.4.1 444 Mode (Display in 4096 colors)
In this mode, data for 2RGB are written in the display memory when the MPU writes three times. Actually,
the first two write signals write data for the first RGB in the display memory and the third write signal writes
data for the 2nd RGB. When write signal is input only once, nothing is written in the display memory.

8.5.4 Reference Voltage Circuit


S1D15G14 generates the LCD drive reference voltage, VEV, from VDD, converts it into impedance with the OP
amplifier and outputs it to V1OUT.

1 Electronic Volume Function


The VEV voltage is variable by a command (Write contrast or Voltage control) and can be adjusted to the
optimum value in the software. Setting of the two commands is reflected to operation of the power supply
circuit as shown below:
c Voltage control command
parameter value (0 to 127)

d=c-63
d+e
e Write contrast command

Electronic volume
value of power supply
circuit (0 to 127)

parameter value (0 to 127)

When the result is below 0 or more than 127,


the output is fixed to 0 or 127.

These two commands are used for the following purposes.


1 Voltage control command: used to compensate variations of the LCD panel and the IC.
2 Write contrast command: used to adjust the display contrast.
VEV can be expressed by the following formula:

89 +
V1OUT = VEV =
VREG
218
= (Voltage Control parameter value) - 63 + (Write Contrast parameter value)
The relations of 0127 always exist. Even when the calculation result of the above formula is below 0
or more than 127, the value a is fixed to 0 or 127.
Where, VREG is the reference voltage inside the IC and is 1.8V (Typ.) when Ta = 25C. Also, the value a
ranges from 0 to 127 and VREG is 1.8V (Typ.), and therefore, VEV is variable between 0.73V and 1.80V.
Please be careful for the set-up value not to exceed operation voltage.

2 External Resister
When the external trimming resister is used to adjust the LCD drive voltage finely, connect the external
resisters as follows. Also, in this case, set Parameter P14 to 1 by the Power Control command and select
the external resisters.

3 Temperature Gradient
Also, the command (Temperature gradient set) can be used to change the temperature gradient of VREG.
The display quality can be corrected and retained in wide temperature ranges by selecting temperature
gradients suitable to temperature characteristics of the LCD panel.
Temperature gradients can be selected from the following four kinds: Respective temperature gradient
values are for refer only.
The intersection of the temperature gradient is 25 C.

S1D15G14 Series

8.6.2 LCD Drive Bias


The LCD drive bias rate in a principle drive is calculated from the following formula:

Bias rate = Drive duty + 1


When the LCD is driven according to this formula, the rate of ON voltage to OFF voltage becomes the
maximum.
Since S1D15G14 allows to select the LCD drive bias out of 1/5 to 1/9 bias, select the optimum drive bias taking
characteristics of applicable LCD and the number of external parts into account. The smaller the bias rate is
set, the more the number of external parts reduces and the smaller the rate of ON voltage to OFF voltage of
LCD drive becomes.
The following shows the formula to calculate common and segment amplitudes from Duty, Bias and LCD
threshold (Vth):

1 Segment Amplitude (VSEG)

Display Mode

For S1D15G14, two display modes, i.e., Normal Mode and Idle Mode, are available depending on setting of
commands. Respective operations are shown in the table below:

Number of displayable colors

Normal Mode
Oscillator 1
Operation
Stop

Idle Mode
Oscillator 2
Stop
Operation
8 colors

Each mode can be set or cancelled by the Normal Display ON, Idle Mode ON/OFF commands.
Normal Mode :
Circuits of the LCD system operate regarding output of Oscillator 1 as the reference clock and can be
displayed in 4,096 colors.
Idle Mode :
Circuits of the LCD system operate regarding output of Oscillator 1 as the reference clock, and their display
colors are reduced to 8 colors. The most significant bit of each color of RGB is used for display out of data
in the display RAM. In this mode, the display color is limited to 8 colors, but these circuits can operate with
low power consumption because the operation frequency is reduced.

P16: To set boosting clocks timing to normal mode.


0: To generate the boosting clock with a different timing than the display clock.
Frequency of the boosting clock is set by P12, P11 and P10.
1: To generate the boosting clock with half a clock per selection period later than the display clock.
When the display or fluctuation of the LCD driving voltage, in sync with the display clock, is uneven, setting
the parameter to 1 is recommended.
P15: This parameter must be set to 0 for internal setting of the IC.
P14: To switch internal/external resistance used for adjusting V1OUT output voltage.
0: Internal resistance
1: External resistance
P13: To change the output driving capacity of V1OUT.
0: High-power mode
1: Low-power mode
Although setting this parameter to the high-power mode saves current consumption by approximately100 A,
voltage fluctuation may affect the image quality due to the load of the LCD panel. Hence, we recommend that
the high-power mode be used.
P12, P11 and P10: To set the frequency of the built-in boosting circuit. The frequency is set by the oscillation
clocks division rate.
As indicated below, the frequency varies by the difference between the normal and idle display modes.

Despite load of the LCD panel, raising the boosting circuits frequency makes the LCD driving voltage more
stable. This increase, however, requires more current consumption. Adjust the value appropriately by
checking the display of the LCD panel.
*After reset is done, values of registers become unstable. Perform initialization.

Execute the power ON reset ( RES = LOW)

Turn OFF the VDD-VDDI power.


Note: Turn OFF the VDD-VDDI power when the output of the LCD power supply circuit becomes low enough.

This IC uses the logic voltage of the VDD-GND and VDDI-GND power supply for control of the LCD output
driver. Thus, if the power supply VDD-GND, VDDI-GND is turned OFF while voltage is still remaining on the
LCD power supply circuit, the LCD output drivers (COM,SEG) can generate uncontrolled output. When the
output of the LCD power supply circuit becomes low enough, turn OFF the VDD-VDDI power.

PRECAUTIONS

Pay attention to the following concerning the development specification:


1. The development specification is subject to change for improvement without advance notice.
2. The development specification does not guarantee to use industrial property right and other rights and does
not provide any patent right.
Applied examples shown in the development specification are intended to help you understand the product, and
the manufacturer shall not be responsible for any trouble arising from using such applied examples.

In operation of S1D15G14, pay attention to the following:


Precautions on Light
Properties of semiconductor devices are generally affected according to the principle of solar battery when they
are exposed to light. Therefore, this IC may malfunction if exposed to light.
1 When using this IC, design the structures of devices or mount the IC so that it is shielded from light.
2 Design the structure of inspection process or mount the IC so that it is shielded from light.
3 Protect surfaces, rears and sides of IC chips from light.
However, reliability of the IC is not affected for a long time even if it is operated under slight light where it does
not malfunction and their characteristics including current consumption are not influenced.
Precautions on External Noise
1 Operating statuses of and display data in S1D15G14 are maintained by commands, but excessive external
noises may affect its internal statuses. Take proper measures in mounting and arranging systems so that
they can protected from external noises.
2 We recommend you to assemble software so that the operating status can be periodically refreshed (by
resetting commands and by re-transferring display data) against noises arising suddenly.
Precautions on COG
When mounting COG, you should consider resistance components caused by ITO wire between driver chips
and external parts to be connected (capacitor, resister, etc.). These resistance components may cause troubles
in LCD display and in high-speed operation of the MPU interface.
When mounting COG, design modules paying sufficient attention to the following three points:
1. Reduce resistances from driver chip pins to external parts as much as possible.
2. Reduce resistance in the power supply pins of the driver chips as much as possible.
3. Prepare a COG module sample by changing ITO sheet resistance, and use such a module with sheet
resistance allowing sufficient operation margin.
