ORDERING INFORMATION
The PCF8833 is a single chip low power CMOS LCD
controller driver, designed to drive colour Super-Twisted
Nematic (STN) displays of 132 rows and 132 RGB
columns. All necessary functions for the display are
provided in a single chip, including display RAM which has
a capacity of 209 kbit (132
×
12-bit
×
132). The PCF8833
uses the Multiple Row Addressing (MRA) driving
technique in order to achieve the best optical performance
at the lowest power consumption. The PCF8833 offers
2 types of microcontroller interfaces namely the
8080 system interface and the 3-line serial interface.

logic supply voltage
V
DD2
and V
DD3
are the supply voltage pins for the internal voltage generator
including the temperature compensation circuits; V
DD2
and V
DD3
can be
connected together but in this case care must be taken to respect the supply
voltage range (see Chapter 13); V
DD1
is used as the supply for the rest of the
chip. V
DD1
can be connected together with V
DD2
and V
DD3
but in this case care
must also be taken to respect the supply voltage range; see Chapter 13. V
DD2
and V
DD3
must not be applied before V
DD1.
If the internal voltage generator is not used, pins V
DD2
and V
DD3
must be
connected to V
DD1
.
