1. general description the pca8576f 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 40 segments. it can be easily cascaded for larger lcd applications. the pca8576f is compatible with most microcontrollers and communicates via the two-line bidirectional i 2 c-bus. communication overheads are minimized by a display ram with auto-incremented addressing, by hardware subaddressing and by display me mory switching (static and duplex drive modes). for a selection of nxp lcd segment drivers, see table 28 on page 47 . 2. features and benefits ? aec-q100 grade 2 compliant for automotive applications ? single chip lcd controller and driver ? selectable backplane drive configuration: static or 2, 3, 4 backplane multiplexing ? selectable display bias configuration: static, 1 2 , or 1 3 ? internal lcd bias generation with voltage-follower buffers ? 40 segment drives: ? up to 20 7-segment numeric characters ? up to 10 14-segment alphanumeric characters ? any graphics of up to 160 elements ? 40 ? 4-bit ram for display data storage ? auto-incremented display data loading across device subaddress boundaries ? display memory bank switching in static and duplex drive modes ? versatile blinking modes ? independent supplies possible for lcd and logic voltages ? wide power supply range: from 1.8 v to 5.5 v ? wide lcd supply range: ? from 2.5 v for low-threshold lcds ? up to 8.0 v for high-threshold twisted nematic lcds ? low power consumption ? 400 khz i 2 c-bus interface ? may be cascaded for large lcd applications (up to 2560 elements possible) ? no external components required ? compatible with chip-on-gla ss and chip-on-board technology pca8576f automotive lcd driver fo r low multiplex rates rev. 1 ? 22 november 2013 product data sheet 1. the definition of the abbreviations and acronyms used in this data sheet can be found in section 19 .
