General description
●The PCF85162 is a peripheral device which interfaces to almost any Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)1 with low multiplex rates. It generates the drive signals for any static or multiplexed LCD containing up to four backplanes and up to 32 segments. It can be easily cascaded for larger LCD applications.
●Features and benefits
●Single chip LCD controller and driver
●Selectable backplane drive configuration: static, 2, 3, or 4 backplane multiplexing
●Selectable display bias configuration: static, 1⁄2, or 1⁄3
●Internal LCD bias generationwith voltage-follower buffers
●32 segment drives:
●Up to sixteen 7-segment numeric characters
●Up to eight 14-segment alphanumeric characters
●Any graphics of up to 128 elements
●32 x 4-bit RAM for display data storage
●Display memory bank switching instatic and duplex drive modes
●Versatile blinking modes
●Independent supplies possible for LCD and logic voltages
