Description of Operation
1. Description of I/O Pins
(a) System clear pins (XCLR1, XCLR2 and XCLR3)
All internal circuits are initialized by setting XCLR1 (Pin 102) low. In addition, the internal PLL is initialized by
setting XCLR2 (Pin 66) low, and RGB output is initialized (preset) by setting XCLR3 (Pin 103) low.
Initialization should be performed when power is turned on.
(b) Sync signal input pins (HDIN and VDIN)
Horizontal and vertical separate sync signals are input to HDIN (Pin 62) and VDIN (Pin 17), respectively. The
CXD3526GG supports only non-interlace sync signals with a dot clock of 100MHz or less.
(c) Master clock input pins (CLKP/CLKN, CLKC, CLKSEL and CLKPOL)
Phase comparison is performed by an external circuit and a clock synchronized to the sync signal is input. The
master clock input pins have two systems consisting of CLKP/CLKN (Pins 101 and 130) for small-amplitude
differential input (center level: 2.0V, amplitude: ±0.4V), and CLKC (Pin 131) for CMOS level input. In addition,
the clock path selection is performed with CLKSEL (Pin 100) and CLKPOL (Pin 63). The setting values are as
follows.
CLKSEL: 0 = CLKP and CLKN input; 1 = CLKC input
CLKPOL: 0 = Input clock is non-inverted; 1 = Input clock is inverted
(d) PLL setting pin (PLLDIV)
PLLDIV (Pin 129) sets the divider setting of the internal phase compensation PLL circuit. The setting values for
master clock frequency are as follows.
PLLDIV: 0 = 55 to 100MHz; 1 = 27.5 to 55MHz
Note that the frequency of the clock input to the CXD3526GG must be within the phase compensation PLL
operating range, even during free running.
(e) RGB signal input pins (RIN, GIN and BIN)
These pins input RGB digital signals in 10 bits. The Red signal is input to RIN (Pins 4 to 6, 50 to 53 and 89 to
91), the Green signal to GIN (Pins 7, 8, 54, 55, 92, 93 and 123 to 125), and the Blue signal to BIN (Pins 9 to
12, 56 to 58 and 95 to 97) respectively.
(f) OSD signal input pins (ROSD, GOSD, BOSD, YS and Y M)
These pins input OSD signals. The Red signal is input to ROSD (Pins 14 and 59), the Green signal to GOSD
(Pins 15 and 60), and the Blue signal to BOSD (Pins 16 and 61) respectively. In addition, the YM signal is input
to YM (Pin 98), and the YS signal to YS (Pin 99).

CXD3526GG
(g) Host I/F serial clock input pin (HSCL)
HSCL (Pin 68) is the clock input pin used to set the I/O timing for serial data from the host. Data is taken from
the HSDA pin when the clock signal rises, and data is output to the HSDA pin when the clock signal falls.
(h) Host I/F serial I/O pin (HSDA)
This is the I/O pin for serial data from the host. It is necessar y to switch the input to the HSDA (Pin 70) while
the signal level of HSCL is low.
(i) Slave address input pin (HSEL)
With this IC, it is possible to select host I/F slave address. Since a slave address is used to identify each of
these devices, this pin should be connected to VDD or Vss externally. This VDD and Vss setting drives the device
which matches the slave address input from the HSDA pin. The slave addresses of this IC used for the HSEL
(Pin 22) setting are as follows.
HSEL: 0 = 74h; 1 = 76h
(j) External ROM I/F serial clock output pin (RSCL)
RSCL (Pin 23) is the clock output pin used to set the I/O timing of serial data sent to the external EEPROM.
Data is taken from the RSDA pin when the clock signal r ises, and data is output to the RSDA pin when the
clock signal falls.
(k) External ROM I/F serial I/O pin (RSDA)
This is the I/O pin for serial data sent to the external EEPROM. It is necessary to switch the input to the RSDA
(Pin 69) while the signal level of RSCL is low.
2. Pipeline Delay of the RGB and OSD Signals
The pipeline delay f or the I/O of the RGB signals is 32 clock cycles of the master clock. In addition, the pipeline
delay for the OSD, YS and YM signals is 25 clock cycles of the master clock.

3. Serial Bus
The serial bus of this IC consists of a host I/F, external ROM I/F and register I/F.
3-1. Host I/F
With this IC, each register setting and data set to built-in RAM are perfor med over a serial bus. Bus protocol
conforms to I2C bus specifications. Note that this IC does not suppor t multi-slave functions, and that the bus
should be independent from ICs having the other I2C bus specification. Also, when accessing gamma RAM,
always access memory address from odd addresses in 2-byte units. The following restrictions are placed on
the host I/F of this IC.
• Only I2C bus slave operations are performed.
• Standard mode and fast mode are supported. Hs mode is not supported.
• Multi-slave functions are not supported.
• The general call address and start byte of the slave address are not acknowledged.
• C bus compatibility is not supported.
• Acknowledgment is not performed for 10-bit slave addresses.
• Low is not asserted for HSCL. (Wait control is not performed.)
(1) "Start" conditions
Read and write operations enter "Start" status by switching HSDA input from high to low level while HSCL input
is high.
(2) "Stop" conditions
"Stop" results by switching HSDA input from low to high while HSCL input is high. Setting "Stop" status causes
read processing to terminate during read operations, and causes the input of write data to terminate dur ing
write operations.

(3) Acknowledgment
Acknowledgment is used to indicate whether or not data has been sent/received normally. The
"Acknowledgment" of a data transfer is performed after that data transfer when the sender releases the bus on
the 9th clock of HSCL and the receiver drives low. If the host is the receiver, the IC is informed by the host that
data has ended by the fact that "Acknowledgment" is not generated for the last data sent from the IC.

(4) Slave address specification
After "Start" is sent, a 7-bit slave address and 1-bit read/write code is sent. Read/write operations with this IC
start if the input slave address matches the device address set using HSEL. If the device address does not
match, "Acknowledgment" is not generated and the system does nothing.

(5) Byte write operation
After "Start" is sent, the R/W code is set to low and an 8-bit device address word is input. The IC outputs
"Acknowledgment" on the 9th bit and enters write mode. After this, "Acknowledgment" is output every 8 bits
after each of the two 8-bit memory addresses are input. Next, "Acknowledgment" is output after 8 bits of write
data is input and written to the IC.

(6) Continuous write operation
This IC possesses a function which can write data continuously. With the continuous write operation, write data
is written in a manner similar to the byte write operation. Continuous write is possible by sending write data
continuously before sending "Stop". The address used to write data during the continuous write operation is
automatically incremented when each separate write operation terminates.
There is no limit on the number of continuous transfers that are possible to write continuously with this IC.

3-2. Conditions for Accessing Gamma RAM and Color Shading RAM
With this IC, there are two way to access the internal RAM: by the host I/F using the serial bus and refresh/
write-back for sending/receiving data via external ROM I/F. In the case of Gamma RAM, internal RAM must be
accessed by the host I/F in 2-byte units, and memory address must be read from or written to odd memory
addresses. Color shading RAM can be accessed in 1-byte units and there is no restriction on which addresses
can be read or written.
It is possible to access internal RAM from each I/F when the conditions given in the following table are
established.

Similarly, CSC_ON must be set to "0" when performing a write-back or forced refresh operation for color
shading RAM.
In the case of a self-refresh operation, the start of vertical blanking period is automatically detected and
operations start automatically at that time, regardless of how GAM_ON and CSC_ON are set. Therefore, be
sure to set the external EEPROM transfer count register ROM_TRAN to fit within the ver tical blanking period.
Furthermore, the vertical blanking period for gamma is set using GAM_H1, GAM_H2, GAM_V1 and GAM_V2,
while the vertical blanking period for color shading is set using CSC_HP, CSC_VP, CSC_HNUM, CSC_VNUM,
CSC_HINT and CSC_VINT. Make all settings in accordance with the specifications of the video signal
attempting to be displayed.

CXD3526GG
3-3. External ROM I/F
When operating the external ROM I/F, operations start by setting the serial bus register from the host I/F. The
serial bus on the ROM side is used to access the external EEPROM. Bus protocol conforms to I2C bus
specifications. Also, the following restrictions are placed on the external ROM I/F of this IC.
• Only master operations are performed.
• Standard mode and fast mode are supported. Hs mode is not supported.
• Multi-master functions are not supported.
• The general call address and start byte of the slave address are not generated.
• C bus compatibility is not supported.
• A memory address space of up to 512K bytes is supported.
• Wait control by RSCL is not supported.
• 10-bit slave addresses are not supported.
(1) External ROM I/F clock settings
The frequency of the clock signal supplied to the external EEPROM by the RSCL pin is set using RSCL_SEL
of the serial bus control registers. Set this value based on the operating frequency of the IC as given in the
table below so that the frequency output by the RSCL pin is appropriate for the specifications of the external
EEPROM.

(2) External EEPROM memory capacity setting
With this IC, slave addresses and memory addresses are generated in accordance with the memory capacity
set for the external EEPROM. The memory capacity of the external EEPROM is set using ROM_MAP of the
serial bus control registers.
[Example] Address output when using eight 256K-byte EEPROMs (ROM_MAP = 01)
With this IC, the ROM slave address register setting [7:4] is set as is for the serial bus slave address [7:4], and
the memory address [17:15] is used for the slave address [3:1]. The memory address [14:0] is used as is for
the 1st and 2nd memory addresses. The 1st memor y address [7] is fixed to all "0". Furthermore, up to eight
external EEPROMs can be connected to this IC.

(3) External ROM I/F slave address setting
The external ROM I/F of this IC transfers data into and out of memory using the serial bus as host I/F. Since
operations conform to I2C bus protocol just as with the host I/F, this section only describes the slave address.
To access the external EEPROM, when access conditions are established, "Start" is sent, and then 7 bits
representing the slave address are output, and the R/W code is output. "Acknowledgment" is received to the
9th bit from the external EEPROM, and the IC enters either read or write mode. The slave address is
determined based on ROM_MAP of the serial bus ROM I/F control register and RSLV_ADDR of the ser ial bus
ROM slave address register as previously described.
The user should set the upper 4 bits of the device address of the EEPR OM to be used in RSLV_ADDR and the
memory size in ROM_MAP. This allows memory to be used without awareness of memory boundaries of
actual memory used for the setting memory space.

(4) Memory location and data size setting for the external EEPROM
Since this IC performs refresh and write-back operations, it is necessary to set which addresses of the
external EEPROM gamma data and color shading data have been located in.
The registers used to make these settings are the external EEPROM gamma data start address register and
the external EEPROM color shading data start address register. By specifying the star ting position of the data
area in these registers data access from the specified addresses is possible during refresh or write-back
operation.
Units of 1K-byte can be used to set the start addresses which can be set in these registers.
In addition, the size of data transferred during refresh and write-back operations is fixed at 2K bytes for each
color in the case of gamma data. The n umber of bytes transferred in the case of color shading data is the value
stored in the color shading data size register plus one.
– 20 –
CXD3526GG
(5) Refresh and write-back operations
This IC includes a function that allows an external EEPROM to automatically refresh the internal RAM. This
function has the four modes described below.
• Self-refresh mode
• Forced refresh mode
• Write-back mode
• Refresh stop mode
Each mode is started by writing the specified mode into REF_MODE of the refresh register.
In self-refresh mode, the IC detects that the vertical blanking period has been entered and, using the value
specified in the external EEPROM transfer count register, uses the continuous read operation to transfer data
of the size "transfer count plus 1" to the external ROM I/F. The data read using the continuous read transfer is
written into the internal RAM.
When the transfer of the all data for the data size is completed, the access area for the internal RAM is
changed, continuous read transfer is executed indefinitely until self-refresh mode is exited, and refresh
operations are automatically carried out on the internal RAM.
In forced refresh mode, continuous read transfer from the external EEPROM is performed for the RAM area
specified by REF_RSEL of the refresh RAM select register, and the read data is wr itten to the inter nal RAM.
When the transfer of all data for the specified RAM area is completed, REF_END of the refresh status register
set to a flag indicating the operation has ended, and operations stop.
If forced refresh operations are to be performed for the entire internal RAM, first set the refresh RAM select
register to gamma RAM (R) and perform the forced refresh operation. Since the refresh RAM select register is
automatically set to the next RAM area after all data is transferred, refresh for the entire RAM can be
completed by repeating the forced refresh operation five times.
In write-back mode, continuous write transfer is performed from the RAM area specified by REF_RSEL of the
refresh RAM select register to the external EEPROM. When the transfer of all data for the specified RAM area
is completed, REF_END of the refresh status register set to a flag indicating the operation has ended, and
operations stop.
If write-back operations are to be performed for the entire internal RAM, first set the refresh RAM select
register to gamma RAM (R) just as for forced refresh operation, and then perform the write-back operation.
Since the refresh RAM select register is automatically set to the next RAM area after all data is transferred,
write-back for the entire RAM can be completed by repeating the write-back operation five times.
In refresh stop mode, the external ROM I/F does not operate and nothing is output on the serial bus.
(6) Forced reset of the external ROM I/F control circuit
With this IC, forced reset is possible in case a problem occurs with the external ROM I/F and the internal
circuit becomes locked. Forced reset initializes only the external ROM I/F control circuit by writing "1" to
ROM_RST of the refresh register. Normal operations are allowed after initialization is complete.
3-4. Register I/F Control Circuit
The register I/F control circuit transfers data between the host I/F and the external ROM I/F. Register data
other than RAM data is stored here. Since registers have a double buffer configuration, data in the first buffer is
synchronized with the internal VD and reflected in the second buffer, while data in the second buffer is input to
each block. Note, however, that data in the serial bus control register has a single buffer configuration.

3-5. Software Flow
(1) Settings when power is turned on
The following procedure is the setting procedure first perfor med after power of the IC is turned on. If this
procedure is not executed, the internal VD will not be generated and register data cannot be set correctly.
Start
Perform settings such as for the timing of the corresponding LCD panel
using the TG register.
Since the TG register uses a double register configuration using a V latch,
set the FORCE_VD register of the serial bus control register to "1" only at
startup to transfer TG register setting values.
Perform setting for unset registers.
If TG is operating at this time, there is no need to write the FORCE_VD
register due to the fact that registers having a double register configuration
will be automatically written using VD from an external source.
End
(2) Setting procedure of the serial bus control register
The following procedure is the procedure for setting the serial bus control register in accordance with the external
EEPROM to which the IC is connected. Be sure to make settings according to the operating frequency of the IC
and the speed, capacity and number of external EEPROMs that are connected.
Start
Find the optimum clock frequency for the external ROM I/F based on the
frequency of the system clock and set the Bits 1 and 0 of the RSCL_SEL
register to this value.
Set the total capacity of the connected EEPROM devices and set Bits 5
and 4 of the ROM_MAP register to this value.
Set the slave addresses of the EEPROM devices connected into the
RSLV_ADDR register.
End

CXD3526GG
(3) Write-back procedure
The following procedure is the procedure for writing gamma correction and color shading correction data back
to the external EEPROM.
Start
During display, mute the video signal using the DSD
register.
Set GAM_ON = 0 and CSC_ON = 0 so that the
gamma RAMs and color shading RAMs are not used.
Set the GAM_ADDR, CSC_ADDR, CSC_SIZE and
ROM_TRAN registers to the addresses and transfer
count to be used to perform write-back.
Write data into the gamma RAMs (R, G, B) and color
shading RAMs (R, G, B).
Set the REF_RSEL register to gamma RAM (R).
Write "1" to the REF_END register and clear status.
Write 03h to the REF_MODE register to start write-back.
Read the REF_END register.
Is the status "1"?
0: Write-back currently
being performed
Write "1" to the REF_END register and clear status.
Read the REF_RSEL register.
No

(4) Forced refresh procedure during power-on
The following procedure is the procedure for setting gamma correction and color shading correction data from
an external EEPROM for forced refresh when power is turned on.
Start
During display, mute the video signal using the DSD
register.
Set GAM_ON = 0 and CSC_ON = 0 so that the
gamma RAMs and color shading RAMs are not used.
Set the GAM_ADDR, CSC_ADDR, CSC_SIZE and
ROM_TRAN registers to the addresses and transfer
count to be used to perform forced refresh.
Set the REF_RSEL register to gamma RAM (R).
Write "1" to the REF_END register and clear status.
Write 02h to the REF_MODE register to start forced
refresh.
Read the REF_END register.
Is the status "1"?
0: Forced refresh
currently being performed
Write "1" to the REF_END register and clear status.
