PCA8576F
Automotive 40 × 4 LCD driver
Rev. 3 — 3 December 2014
Product data sheet
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 I2C-bus. Communication
overheads are minimized by a display RAM with auto-incremented addressing, by
hardware subaddressing and by display memory switching (static and duplex drive
modes).
For a selection of NXP LCD segment drivers, see Table 28 on page 46.

7.2 Clock and frame frequency
7.2.1 Internal clock
The internal logic of the PCA8576F and its LCD drive signals are timed either by its
internal oscillator or by an external clock. The internal oscillator is enabled by connecting
pin OSC to pin VSS. If the internal oscillator is used, the output from pin CLK can be used
as the clock signal for several PCA8576Fs in the system that are connected in cascade.
7.2.2 External clock
Pin CLK is enabled as an external clock input by connecting pin OSC to VDD. The LCD
frame signal frequency is determined by the clock frequency (fclk).

Automotive 40 × 4 LCD driver
Remark: A clock signal must always be supplied to the device; removing the clock may
freeze the LCD in a DC state, which is not suitable for the liquid crystal.
7.2.3 Timing and frame frequency
The PCA8576F timing controls the internal data flow of the device. This includes the
transfer of display data from the display RAM to the display segment outputs. In cascaded
applications, the correct timing relationship between each PCA8576F in the system is
maintained by the synchronization signal at pin SYNC. The timing also generates the LCD
frame signal whose frequency is derived from the clock frequency. The frame signal
frequency is a fixed division of the clock frequency from either the internal or an external
fclk
clock: ffr

.

7.2.4 Blinking
The display blinking capabilities of the PCA8576F are very versatile. The whole display
can blink at frequencies selected by the blink-select command (see Table 11). The blink
frequencies are derived from the clock frequency. The ratio between the clock and blink
frequencies depends on the blink mode selected (see Table 11).
An additional feature is for an arbitrary selection of LCD segments/elements to blink. This
applies to the static and 1:2 multiplex drive modes and can be implemented without any
communication overheads. By means of the output bank selector, the displayed RAM
banks are exchanged with alternate RAM banks at the blink frequency. This mode can
also be specified by the blink-select command.
In the 1:3 and 1:4 multiplex modes, where no alternative RAM bank is available, groups of
LCD segments/elements can blink by selectively changing the display RAM data at fixed
time intervals.
The entire display can blink at a frequency other than the nominal blink frequency. This
can be effectively performed by resetting and setting the display enable bit E at the
required rate using the mode-set command (see Table 7).

7.3 Display RAM
The display RAM is a static 40 4-bit RAM which stores LCD data.
There is a one-to-one correspondence between
• the bits in the RAM bitmap and the LCD segments/elements
• the RAM columns and the segment outputs
• the RAM rows and the backplane outputs.
A logic 1 in the RAM bitmap indicates the on-state of the corresponding LCD element;
similarly, a logic 0 indicates the off-state.
The display RAM bit map, Figure 4, shows the rows 0 to 3 which correspond with the
backplane outputs BP0 to BP3, and the columns 0 to 39 which correspond with the
segment outputs S0 to S39. In multiplexed LCD applications the segment data of the first,
second, third and fourth row of the display RAM are time-multiplexed with BP0, BP1, BP2,
and BP3 respectively.

PCA8576F
NXP Semiconductors
Automotive 40 × 4 LCD driver
When display data is transmitted to the PCA8576F, the received display bytes are stored
in the display RAM in accordance with the selected LCD drive mode. The data is stored as
it arrives and depending on the current multiplex drive mode the bits are stored singularly,
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 5; the RAM filling organization depicted
applies equally to other LCD types, see Section 7.3.1 to Section 7.3.4.
7.3.1 RAM filling in static drive mode
In the static drive mode the eight transmitted data bits are placed in eight successive
display RAM columns in row 0 (see Figure 6).

In the case described in Table 14 the RAM has to be written entirely and BP2/S2, BP2/S5,
BP2/S8 etc. have to be connected to segments/elements on the display. This can be
achieved by a combination of writing and rewriting the RAM like follows:
• In the first write to the RAM, bits a7 to a0 are written.
• In the second write, bits b7 to b0 are written, overwriting bits a1 and a0 with bits b7
and b6.
• In the third write, bits c7 to c0 are written, overwriting bits b1 and b0 with bits c7 and
c6.
Depending on the method of writing to the RAM (standard or entire filling by rewriting),
some segments/elements remain unused or can be used, but it has to be considered in
the module layout process as well as in the driver software design.

Fig 8. Display RAM filling order in 1:4 multiplex drive mode
7.3.5 Data pointer
The addressing mechanism for the display RAM is realized using the data pointer. This
allows the loading of an individual display data byte, or a series of display data bytes, into
any location of the display RAM. The sequence commences with the initialization of the
data pointer by the load-data-pointer command (see Table 8). Following this command, an
arriving data byte is stored at the display RAM address indicated by the data pointer. The
filling order is shown in Figure 5. After each byte is stored, the content of the data pointer
is automatically incremented by a value dependent on the selected LCD drive mode:
• In static drive mode by eight.
• In 1:2 multiplex drive mode by four.
• In 1:3 multiplex drive mode by three.
• In 1:4 multiplex drive mode by two.
If an I2C-bus data access terminates early then the state of the data pointer is unknown.
Consequently, the data pointer must be rewritten prior to further RAM accesses.
7.3.6 Subaddress counter
The storage of display data is determined by the contents of the subaddress counter.
Storage is allowed only when the content of the subaddress counter match with the
hardware subaddress applied to A0 and A1. The subaddress counter value is defined by
the device-select command (see Table 9). If the content of the subaddress counter and
the hardware subaddress do not match then data storage is inhibited but the data pointer
is incremented as if data storage had taken place. The subaddress counter is also
incremented when the data pointer overflows.

PCA8576F
NXP Semiconductors
Automotive 40 × 4 LCD driver
The storage arrangements described lead to extremely efficient data loading in cascaded
applications. When a series of display bytes are sent to the display RAM, automatic
wrap-over to the next PCA8576F occurs when the last RAM address is exceeded.
Subaddressing across device boundaries is successful even if the change to the next
device in the cascade occurs within a transmitted character.
The hardware subaddress must not be changed while the device is being accessed on the
I2C-bus interface.
7.3.7 Writing over the RAM address boundary
In all multiplex drive modes, depending on the setting of the data pointer, it is possible to
fill the RAM over the RAM address boundary. If the PCA8576F is part of a cascade the
additional bits fall into the next device that also generates the acknowledge signal. If the
PCA8576F is a single device or the last device in a cascade the additional bits will be
discarded and no acknowledge signal will be generated.
7.3.8 Bank selection
7.3.8.1 RAM bank switching
The PCA8576F includes a RAM bank switching feature in the static and 1:2 multiplex
drive modes. A bank can be thought of as one RAM row or a collection of RAM rows (see
Figure 9). The RAM bank switching gives the provision for preparing display information in
an alternative bank and to be able to switch to it once it is complete.

There are two banks; bank 0 and bank 1. Figure 9 shows the location of these banks
relative to the RAM map. Input and output banks can be set independently from one
another with the Bank-select command (see Table 10 on page 7). Figure 10 shows the

In the static drive mode, the bank-select command may request the contents of row 2 to
be selected for display instead of the contents of row 0. In the 1:2 multiplex mode, the
contents of rows 2 and 3 may be selected instead of rows 0 and 1. This gives the
provision for preparing display information in an alternative bank and to be able to switch
to it once it is assembled.
In Figure 11 an example is shown for 1:2 multiplex drive mode where the displayed data is
read from the first two rows of the memory (bank 0), while the transmitted data is stored in
the second two rows of the memory (bank 1).

7.3.8.2 Output bank selector
The output bank selector (see Table 10) selects one of the four rows per display RAM
address for transfer to the display register. The actual row selected depends on the
selected LCD drive mode in operation and on the instant in the multiplex sequence.
• In 1:4 multiplex mode, all RAM addresses of row 0 are selected, these are followed by
the contents of row 1, 2, and then 3
• In 1:3 multiplex mode, rows 0, 1, and 2 are selected sequentially
• In 1:2 multiplex mode, rows 0 and 1 are selected
• In static mode, row 0 is selected
7.3.8.3 Input bank selector
The input bank selector loads display data into the display RAM in accordance with the
selected LCD drive configuration. Display data can be loaded in row 2 in static drive mode
or in rows 2 and 3 in 1:2 multiplex drive mode by using the bank-select command (see

Table 10). The input bank selector functions independently to the output bank selector.
7.4 Initialization
At power-on the status of the I2C-bus and the registers of the PCA8576F is undefined.
Therefore the PCA8576F should be initialized as quickly as possible after power-on to
ensure a proper bus communication and to avoid display artifacts. The following
instructions should be accomplished for initialization:
• I2C-bus initialization. For information about the I2C-bus, see Section 8.
– generating a START condition
– sending 0h and ignoring the acknowledge
– generating a STOP condition
• Mode-set command (see Table 7), setting
– bit E = 0
– bit B to the required LCD bias configuration
– bits M[1:0] to the required LCD drive mode
• Load-data-pointer command (see Table 8), setting
– bits P[5:0] to 0h (or any other required address)
• Device-select command (see Table 9), setting
– bits A[1:0] to the required hardware subaddress (for example, 0h)
• Bank-select command (see Table 10), setting
– bit I to 0
– bit O to 0
• Blink-select command (see Table 11), setting
– bit AB to 0 or 1
– bits BF[1:0] to 00 (or to a desired blinking mode)
• writing meaningful information (for example, a logo) into the display RAM
After the initialization, the display can be switched on by setting bit E = 1 with the
mode-set command.
7.5 Possible display configurations
The possible display configurations of the PCA8576F depend on the number of active
backplane outputs required. A selection of display configurations is shown in Table 15. All
of these configurations can be implemented in the typical system shown in Figure 13.

NXP Semiconductors
Automotive 40 × 4 LCD driver
The host microcontroller maintains the 2-line I2C-bus communication channel with the
PCA8576F. The internal oscillator is enabled by connecting pin OSC to pin VSS. The
appropriate biasing voltages for the multiplexed LCD waveforms are generated internally.
The only other connections required to complete the system are to the power supplies
(VDD, VSS, and VLCD) and the LCD panel chosen for the application.
7.6 LCD voltage
7.6.1 LCD bias generator
Fractional LCD biasing voltages are obtained from an internal voltage divider of three
impedances connected between pins VLCD and VSS. The center impedance is bypassed
by switch if the 1⁄2 bias voltage level for the 1:2 multiplex drive mode configuration is
selected. The LCD voltage can be temperature compensated externally using the supply
to pin VLCD
.
7.6.2 LCD voltage selector
The LCD voltage selector coordinates the multiplexing of the LCD in accordance with the
selected LCD drive configuration. The operation of the voltage selector is controlled by the
mode-set command from the command decoder. The biasing configurations that apply to
the preferred modes of operation, together with the biasing characteristics as functions of
V
LCD and the resulting discrimination ratios (D) are given in Table 16.
Discrimination is a term which is defined as the ratio of the on and off RMS voltage across
a segment. It can be thought of as a measurement of contrast.

A practical value for VLCD is determined by equating Voff(RMS) with a defined LCD
threshold voltage (Vth(off)), typically when the LCD exhibits approximately 10 % contrast. In
the static drive mode a suitable choice is VLCD > 3Vth(off)
.
Multiplex drive modes of 1:3 and 1:4 with 1⁄2 bias are possible but the discrimination and
hence the contrast ratios are smaller.

7.6.2.1 Electro-optical performance
Suitable values for Von(RMS) and Voff(RMS) are dependent on the LCD liquid used. The
RMS voltage, at which a pixel will be switched on or off, determine the transmissibility of
the pixel.
For any given liquid, there are two threshold values defined. One point is at 10 % relative
transmission (at Vth(off)) and the other at 90 % relative transmission (at Vth(on)), see
Figure 14. For a good contrast performance, the following rules should be followed:

7.6.4 Backplane outputs
The LCD drive section includes four backplane outputs BP0 to BP3 which must be
connected directly to the LCD. The backplane output signals are generated in accordance
with the selected LCD drive mode. If less than four backplane outputs are required, the
unused outputs can be left open-circuit.
Table 17 describes which outputs are active for each of the multiplex drive modes and
what signal is generated.

8. Characteristics of the I2C-bus
The I2C-bus is for bidirectional, two-line communication between different ICs or modules.
The two lines are a Serial DAta line (SDA) and a Serial CLock line (SCL). Both lines must
be connected to a positive supply via a pull-up resistor when connected to the output
stages of a device. Data transfer may be initiated only when the bus is not busy.
8.1 Bit transfer
One data bit is transferred during each clock pulse. The data on the SDA line must remain
stable during the HIGH period of the clock pulse as changes in the data line at this time
will be interpreted as a control signal (see Figure 20).

8.2 START and STOP conditions
Both data and clock lines remain HIGH when the bus is not busy.
A HIGH-to-LOW transition of the data line while the clock is HIGH is defined as the START
condition - S.
A LOW-to-HIGH transition of the data line while the clock is HIGH is defined as the STOP
condition - P.
The START and STOP conditions are illustrated in Figure 21.

8.3 System configuration
A device generating a message is a transmitter, a device receiving a message is the
receiver. The device that controls the message is the master and the devices which are
controlled by the master are the slaves. The system configuration is shown in Figure 22.

8.4 Acknowledge
The number of data bytes transferred between the START and STOP conditions from
transmitter to receiver is unlimited. Each byte of eight bits is followed by an acknowledge
cycle.
• A slave receiver, which is addressed, must generate an acknowledge after the
reception of each byte.
• A master receiver must generate an acknowledge after the reception of each byte that
has been clocked out of the slave transmitter.
• The device that acknowledges must pull-down the SDA line during the acknowledge
clock pulse, so that the SDA line is stable LOW during the HIGH period of the
acknowledge related clock pulse (set-up and hold times must be taken into
consideration).
• A master receiver must signal an end of data to the transmitter by not generating an
acknowledge on the last byte that has been clocked out of the slave. In this event, the
transmitter must leave the data line HIGH to enable the master to generate a STOP
condition.
Acknowledgement on the I2C-bus is illustrated in Figure 23.

8.5 I2C-bus controller
The PCA8576F acts as an I2C-bus slave receiver. It does not initiate I2C-bus transfers or
transmit data to an I2C-bus master receiver. The only data output from the PCA8576F are
the acknowledge signals of the selected devices. Device selection depends on the
I2C-bus slave address, on the transferred command data and on the hardware
subaddress.
In single device applications, the hardware subaddress inputs A0 and A1 are normally
tied to VSS which defines the hardware subaddress 0. In multiple device applications A0
and A1 are tied to VSS or VDD using a binary coding scheme, so that no two devices with a
common I2C-bus slave address have the same hardware subaddress.
8.6 Input filters
To enhance noise immunity in electrically adverse environments, RC low-pass filters are
provided on the SDA and SCL lines.
8.7 I2C-bus protocol
Two I2C-bus slave addresses (0111 000 and 0111 001) are used to address the
PCA8576F. The entire I2C-bus slave address byte is shown in Table 18.

SA0
The PCA8576F is a write-only device and will not respond to a read access, therefore bit
0 should always be logic 0. Bit 1 of the slave address byte that a PCA8576F will respond
to, is defined by the level tied to its SA0 input (VSS for logic 0 and VDD for logic 1).
Having two reserved slave addresses allows the following on the same I2C-bus:
• Up to 8 PCA8576F for very large LCD applications
• The use of two types of LCD multiplex drive
The I2C-bus protocol is shown in Figure 24. The sequence is initiated with a START
condition (S) from the I2C-bus master which is followed by one of two possible PCA8576F
slave addresses available. All PCA8576Fs whose SA0 inputs correspond to bit 0 of the
slave address respond by asserting an acknowledge in parallel. This I2C-bus transfer is
ignored by all PCA8576Fs whose SA0 inputs are set to the alternative level.

Fig 24. I2C-bus protocol
After an acknowledgement, one or more command bytes follow, that define the status of
each addressed PCA8576F.
The last command byte sent is identified by resetting its most significant bit, continuation
bit C, (see Section 7.1). The command bytes are also acknowledged by all addressed
PCA8576F on the bus.
After the last command byte, one or more display data bytes may follow. Display data
bytes are stored in the display RAM at the address specified by the data pointer and the
subaddress counter. Both data pointer and subaddress counter are automatically updated
and the data directed to the intended PCA8576F device.
An acknowledgement after each byte is asserted only by the PCA8576Fs that are
addressed via address lines A0 and A1. After the last display byte, the I2C-bus master
asserts a STOP condition (P). Alternately a START may be asserted to restart an I2C-bus
access.

10. Safety notes
CAUTION
This device is sensitive to ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD). Observe precautions for handling
electrostatic sensitive devices.
Such precautions are described in the ANSI/ESD S20.20, IEC/ST 61340-5, JESD625-A or
equivalent standards.
CAUTION
CAUTION
Static voltages across the liquid crystal display can build up when the LCD supply voltage
(VLCD) is on while the IC supply voltage (VDD) is off, or vice versa. This may cause unwanted
display artifacts. To avoid such artifacts, VLCD and VDD must be applied or removed together.
Semiconductors are light sensitive. Exposure to light sources can cause the IC to
malfunction. The IC must be protected against light. The protection must be applied to all
sides of the IC.

14. Application information
14.1 Cascaded operation
In large display configurations, up to 8 PCA8576Fs can be differentiated on the same
I2C-bus by using the 2-bit hardware subaddresses (A0 and A1) and the programmable
I2C-bus slave address (SA0).

PCA8576Fs connected in cascade are synchronized to allow the backplane signals from
only one device in the cascade to be shared. This arrangement is cost-effective in large
LCD applications since the backplane outputs of only one device need to be
through-plated to the backplane electrodes of the display. The other PCA8576F of the
cascade contribute additional segment outputs. The backplanes can either be connected
together to enhance the drive capability or some can be left open-circuit (such as the ones
from the slave in Figure 29) or just some of the master and some of the slave will be taken
to facilitate the layout of the display.
All PCA8576Fs connected in cascade are correctly synchronized by the automatically
generated SYNC signal. The only time that SYNC is likely to be needed is if
synchronization is lost accidentally, for example, by noise in adverse electrical
environments, or if the LCD multiplex drive mode is changed in an application using
several cascaded PCA8576Fs, as the drive mode cannot be changed on all of the
cascaded devices simultaneously. SYNC can be either an input or an output signal; a
SYNC output is implemented as an open-drain driver with an internal pull-up resistor.
The PCA8576F asserts SYNC at the start of its last active backplane signal and monitors
the SYNC line at all other times. If cascade synchronization is lost, it is restored by the first
PCA8576F to assert SYNC. The timing relationship between the backplane waveforms
and the SYNC signal for each LCD drive mode is shown in Figure 30.
The contact resistance between the SYNC on each cascaded device must be controlled.
If the resistance is too high, the device is not able to synchronize properly; this is
particularly applicable to chip-on-glass applications. The maximum SYNC contact
resistance allowed for the number of devices in cascade is given in Table 23.
