Application Information
The application circuit to adjust the VCOM voltage in an LCD
panel is shown in Figure 1. The ISL45042 has a 128-step
sink current resolution. The output is connected to an
external voltage divider, that results in decreasing the output
VCOM voltage as you increase the ISL45042 sink current.

CTL Pin
The adjustment of the output VCOM voltage and the
programming of the non-volatile memory are provided
through a single pin called CTL, when the CE pin is high.
The output VCOM voltage is increased with a mid (Vdd/2) to
high transition (0.8*VDD) on CTL pin. The output VCOM
voltage is decreased with a mid (Vdd/2) to low transition
(0.3*VDD), on CTL pin (Reference Figure 6). Once the
minimum or maximum value is reached on the 128 steps,
the device will not overflow or underflow beyond that
minimum or maximum value.
Programming of the non-volatile memory occurs when the
CTL pin exceeds 4.9V. The CTL signal needs to remain
above 4.9V for more than 200µs. The level and timing
needed to program the non-volatile memory is given in
Figure 2. It then takes a maximum of 100ms for the
programming to be completed inside the device.

>200µs
To avoid unintentional adjustment, the ISL45042 guarantees
to reject CTL pulses shorter than 20µs.
During Initial Power-up (only), to avoid the possibility of a
false pulse (since the internal comparators come up in an
unknown state) the very first CTL pulse is ignored. See
Figure 6 for the timing information.

FIGURE 2. EEPROM PROGRAMMING
When the part is programmed, the counter setting is loaded
into the non-volatile memory. This value will be loaded from
the nonvolatile memory during initial power-up or when the
CE pin is pulled low.
Once the programming is completed it is recommended that
the user float the CLT pin. The CTL pin is internally tied to a
resistor network connected to ground. If left floating, the
voltage at the CTL pin will equal V
DD
/2. Under these
conditions, no additional pulses will be seen by the Up/Down
counter via the CTL pin. To prevent further programming
ground the CE pin.
CTL should have a noise filter to reduce bouncing or noise
on the input that could cause unwanted counting when the
CE pin is high. The board should have an additional ESD
protection circuit, with a series 1kΩ resistor and a shunt
0.01µF capacitor connected on the CTL pin. (See Figure 3)
1kΩ
To adjust the output voltage, the CE pin must be pulled high
(VDD). The CE pin has an internal pull-down resistor to
prevent unwanted reprogramming of the EEPROM. The
impedance of this resistor is 400kΩ to 500kΩ (R
INTERNAL
Figure 5).
Transitions of the CE pin are recommended to be less than
10μ seconds.
Replacing Existing Mechanical Potentiometer
Circuits
Figure 4 shows the common adjustment mechanical circuits
and equivalent replacement with the ISL45042.
Expected Output Voltage
The ISL45042 provides an output sink current which lowers
the voltage on the external voltage divider (VCOM output
voltage). EQ. 1 and EQ. 2 can be used to calculate the
output current (IOUT) and output voltage (VOUT) values.
