64 SEG / 26 COM DRIVER & CONTROLLER FOR STN LCD S6A0090
INTRODUCTION
The S6A0090 is an LCD driver and controller LSI for liquid crystal dot matrix character display systems. It can
display 2 or 3 lines of 12 characters with 5 x 8 dots format. It is capable of interfacing with various
microprocessors, supporting the 4-bit and 8-bit parallel mode and the clock synchronized serial mode. Voltage
converter (2 or 3 times), voltage regulator, divider resistor and voltage follower OP AMP are built in the IC and a
low operation current of 50µA is achieved. The slim shape of the chip makes it suitable for the COG module
application and TCP. The S6A0090 is an ideal solution for display on portable equipment such as cellular phones.

FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
SYSTEM INTERFACE
S6A0090 has two kinds of interface type with MPU: bus mode and serial mode. Bus mode or serial mode is
selected by PS pin. In bus mode, 4-bit bus or 8-bit bus is selected by IF pin, and 68 series MPU or 80 series MPU
is selected by RES pin.

IF: "High" = 8-bit mode, "Low" = 4-bit mode (PS: "High")
CSB: "High" = chip is not selected, "Low" = chip is selected
RS: "High" = data register, “Low" = instruction register
E: 80-series active "Low", 68-series active "High"
SCL (DB6): serial clock input
SI (DB7): serial data input
Interface with MPU in Parallel Mode (PS = "High")
During writing operation, two 8-bit registers, data register (DR) and instruction register (IR), are used. The data
register (DR) is used as temporary data storage place for being written into DDRAM / CGRAM / ICONRAM, and
one of these RAMs is selected by RAM address setting instruction. The Instruction register (IR) is used only to
store instruction code transferred from MPU. To select DR or IR register, RS input pin is used in bus mode or
serial mode. In 4-bit bus mode, it is needed to transfer 4-bit data (DB4 to DB7) by two times. The high order bits
(for 8-bit mode DB4 to DB7) are transferred before the low order bits (for 8-bit mode DB0 to DB3). The DB0 to
DB3 pins are floated in this 4-bit bus mode. After RES resets, S6A0090 considers first 4-bit data from MPU as the
high order bits.

Interface with MPU in Serial Mode (PS = "Low")
When PS input pin is "Low", clock synchronized serial interface mode is selected. At this time, five ports, SCL
(DB6, synchronizing transfer clock), SI (DB7, serial input data), RS (register selection input) and CSB (chip
selection input) are used. By setting CSB to "Low", S6A0090 can receive SCL input. If CSB is set to "High",
S6A0090 resets the internal 8-bit shift register and 3-bit counter. Serial data is input in the order of "D7, D6, D5,
D4, D3, D2, D1, D0" from the serial data input pin (SI = DB7) at the rising edge of serial clock (SCL = DB6). At the
rising edge of the 8th serial clock, the serial data (D7–D0) is converted into 8-bit bus mode data. The RS input of
the DR / IR selection is latched at the rising edge of the 8th serial clock (SCL).
