1. DESCRIPTION
The SED15A6 series is a single-chip liquid crystal
display (=LCD) driver for dot-matrix LCDs that can be
connected directly to a microprocessor (=MPU) bus. It
accepts 8-bit parallel or serial display data from a MPU,
stores it in an on-chip display data RAM (=DDRAM),
and generates a LCD drive signal independent of the
MPU clock.
The use of the on-chip DDRAM of 65×102 bits and a
one-to-one correspondence between LCD panel pixel
dots and on-chip DDRAM bits offer high flexibility in
graphic display.
The SED15A6 series does not need external operation
clock for DDRAM read/write operations, and has a on-
chip LCD power supply circuit featuring very low
current consumption with few external components,
and moreover has a on-chip CR oscillator circuit.
And the SED15A6 does not need smoothing capacitor
on the LCD power supply.
Consequently, the SED15A6 series can be realize a
high-performance handy display system with a minimum
current consumption and the fewest components.
• Low-power liquid crystal display power supply circuit
equipped internally.
Booster circuit(with Boost ratios of Double/Triple/
Quad, where the step-up voltage reference power
supply can be input externally)
• High-accuracy voltage adjustment circuit
(Thermal gradient –0.1%/°C)
• V0 voltage divider resistors equipped internally,
V1 to V4 voltage divider resistors equipped internally,
electronic volume function equipped internally,
voltage follower.
• Component that can be omitted (you may omit the
smoothing capacitor on the voltage follower).
• CR oscillator circuit equipped internally(external clock
can also be input)
• Extremely low power consumption
Operating power when the built-in power supply is
used(an example)
