PCF8576D

Universal LCD driver for low multiplex rates

in pairs, triples, or quadruples. To illustrate the filling order, an example of a 7-segment

display showing all drive modes is given in Figure 13; the RAM filling organization

depicted applies equally to other LCD types.

The following applies to Figure 13:

• In static drive mode the eight transmitted data bits are placed into row 0 as one byte.

• In 1:2 multiplex drive mode the eight transmitted data bits are placed in pairs into

row 0 and 1 as two successive 4-bit RAM words.

• In 1:3 multiplex drive mode the eight bits are placed in triples into row 0, 1, and 2 as

three successive 3-bit RAM words, with bit 3 of the third address left unchanged. It is

not recommended to use this bit in a display because of the difficult addressing. This

last bit may, if necessary, be controlled by an additional transfer to this address, but

care should be taken to avoid overwriting adjacent data because always full bytes are

transmitted (see Section 7.10.3).

• In 1:4 multiplex drive mode, the eight transmitted data bits are placed in quadruples

into row 0, 1, 2, and 3 as two successive 4-bit RAM words.
