W e l c o m et o H i t a c h i ´ sf a m i l y o f L C DC o n t r o l l e r sIn today’s modern world, we take the
presence of the electronics that
constantly surround us for granted.
Many of current electronic systems
contain of displays to provide the user
with a simple visual interface, based
very often on low cost, liquid crystal
display technology with features that
would have been unheard of a few
years ago.The latest display products
use advanced semiconductor and
packaging technologies to provide
compact display solutions, offering
both monochrome and colour display
options, while consuming minute
amounts of power, ideal for battery
powered or mobile applications.
In 1996 the worldwide LCDC market
covered 1106 Mio US$ which was an
increase of 67% compared to ´95
figures.This tremendous worldwide
business growth underlines the trend
of incorporating LCD´s in today´s
electronic applications.According to
detailed figures from DATAQUEST,
Hitachi is no 1 of all LCDC suppliers
having a market share of approx. 20%.
Hitachi offers a wide range of LCD
drivers/controllers, from 7-segment
devices aimed at simple displays, such
as digital clocks, through character
controllers/drivers, which contain all
the circuitry required to drive and
control an alphanumeric display, all the
way to row and column drivers,
suitable for driving the latest colour
STN flat panel displays. Furthermore,
Hitachi delivers intelligence on board.
Means, 4-bit and 8-bit micro-
controllers with LCD Driving
capability such as H400 and H8/300L
series.
Semiconductor technology moves
rapidly, and this is no less true in the
area of LCD drivers/controllers, the
latest devices now integrate many of
the features on-chip, that used to
require extra external circuitry.These
features in conjunction with the latest
in packaging technology, allow the
design of displays that take up less
space and consume less power than
ever before, and at a lower system cost.

Many of our newest devices are
aimed at low power applications, such
as Mobile Telephones or PDA
(Personal Digital Assistant) / PCA
(Personal Communications Assistant)
applications, and so offer a wide range
of advanced, low power features, such
as digital contrast control, static icon
drive and on-chip voltage doubler /
tripler / quadrupler, as well as low
4
voltage operation down to 1.8V.
Hitachi is also using the latest advances
in packaging technology.Tape Carrier
Packages (TCP) allows the maximum
number of pins to be used in a small
package for large graphics displays,
while Chip On Glass (COG)
technology offers the lowest cost
solution for dot matrix displays and
middle size graphic displays, such as
N e w T e c h n o l o g i e s
Hitachi has a wide range of display
drivers to support medium and high
resolution graphics displays.These
displays are used in many applications,
including high-end feature phones,
such as web phones, electronic games
and diagnostic equipment. Hitachi’s
row and column drivers provide
solutions to a wide range of display
applications, for standard
monochrome, four-level grey scale,
four-level reflective colour and full
colour applications.
Hitachi also offers LCD
Controllers/Drivers for Wide
Temperature Range (WTR).The
standard temperature range is -20°C
to 75°C and is not indicated in the
part name. WTR (I-spec.) means -
40°C to 85°C for Controllers and -
30°C to 85°C for Driver products.
Hitachi recommends to use I-spec. for
critical applications, particularly in
industrial and automotive applications.
Please contact your loclal Hitachi
Sales Representative for details and
availability.
for mobile phones. For smaller
displays Hitachi is also able to offer
QFP and TQFP package options as
well as Chip On Board (COB)
technology.
The table below shows the different
product groups sorted by their
characteristic features.
Following the trend to reduce the
current consumption further, Hitachi
has incorporated two new driving
methods in the graphic type driver
product group. HI-FAS stands for
High-Frequency-Amplitude-Selection
and allows the high-pin-count column
devices to drive the Display with
Vlcd=5V only, whereas the low-pin-
count common drivers cover
Vlcd=70V.This combination of
different voltage levels for common
and column signals results in a
significant reduction of power
consumption. MLA reflects Multi-
Line-Addressing and is similar to HI-
FAS technique, but more suitable for
single-chip graphic controllers. In both
cases, designers should consider a
different LCD supply voltage circuit to
support these new driving methods.
The following pages illustrate the
respective products and on-chip
features.

C o m m o n D r i v e r sCommon drivers can be easily
combined with respective column
drivers in order to fulfil requirements
of complex graphic displays. For
example, the technical solution to
build up a small graphic LCM with
128x64 dots resolution in 3V and
QFP technology consists of only
three devices.
There is one HD61203U driving 64
common outputs, incorporating on-
chip timing circuit and data interface
to the microcontroller.Two additional
column drivers HD61202U with 64
column outputs each and respective
display RAM on-chip are necessary to
configure the overall display system.
C o l u m n D r i v e r sAs already anticipated, column drivers
are able to drive small, medium and
large graphic-type LCD panels when
combined with common drivers.
Usually, small and medium displays
require multiplex ratios (Duty Rates)
starting from Static drive up to 1/64
Duty cycles whereas large displays can
be multiplexed from 1/64 up to 1/480
Duty cycles.
Column drivers can also be used to
extend the display driving capability of
Dot Matrix Character Display. Other
features are display RAM for direct
output of display data, Grey scale and

D r i v e r s Many smaller graphics display systems
are now able to benefit from the high
levels of integration already available
to users of LCD Character
Controllers/Drivers. Hitachi have
introduced a number of highly
integrated solutions to various
graphics display sizes aimed specifically
at applications such as pagers, mobile
phone handsets and PCA/PDA’s, but
these devices are also suitable for a
multitude of other application areas
due to their low power consumption
and high levels of integration.
Hitachi is able to offer many
integrated solutions to these displays.
The HD66108, HD66410, HD66420,
and HD66421 offer a completely
integrated single chip solution to small
graphics displays, integrating many of
the external components normally
required for driving a graphics display
onto one device, allowing the
production of the most cost effective
display module.

The Hitachi HD66410T provides a
low power, single chip solution for
driving small, bit mapped graphics
displays.A single HD66410T can
display a maximum of 128 x 33 dots,
enough for 4 lines of 20 characters
using 5 x 8 dot characters.
The HD66410T also supports up to
72 annunciators output with a 1/3
duty cycle that are available even
during standby modes, making it
particularly suitable for time and other
mark indications.
The HD66410T is particular suitable
for low power systems, such as pagers,
where power consumption is critical,
with an operating voltage range of
2.2 - 5.5 V and with standby modes,
with and without the separate
annunciator drive.

M i x e d M o d eIn our fast moving world, flexibility
and fast ‘Turn Around Time’ are
essential requirements for designs like
GSM/DECT Mobile phones, ISDN
terminals, organisers, etc…
The ´IDEAL´ device should cover
features of many different end-
products, allowing the customer to
change the end-product by doing
minor changes in software and
hardware. Ideally, this results in short
development periods and reduced cost
of the final product. That is why
Hitachi has developed the HD6672x
series.
This new generation of LCD
controllers is able to drive Dot Matrix
Character displays and Graphic type
displays.
These display configurations are
software selectable and allow these
LCDC products to be integrated in
new generations of telecommuni-
cation, consumer and automotive
applications.The HD66724/725 /726
incorporates the “OR” function to
drive Graphic/Dot Matrix Character
Displays.
The 66728 does have the new Super
Impose Function (SIF) in order to
drive Graphic “AND” Dot Matrix
Character on one display at the same
time.The graphics resolutions are
72x26 for 66724, 96x26 for 66725,
96x42 for 66726 and 112x80 for
66728.
Other functions like SCI, Booster,
Scroll and KPS are obvious.
In order to cover the Far-East market,
Hitachi will introduce the HD66732
which supports with its 1Mb
Character ROM different character
sets.Also here, SIF is on-chip to
control graphic displays as well. For
more details refer also to page 8.

Many applications, such as mobile
phones, RDS radios, satellite receivers
and meters, require the ability to
display simple alpha-numeric
information to the user.To support
these applications, Hitachi have a
range of Dot Matrix display
controllers/drivers.These devices are
designed to provide all of the control
and drive circuitry required to drive
an LCD display in one chip.
Such products can be interfaced to the
host micro-processor using a number
of different methods.These options
include parallel 4/8-bit bus, a simple
synchronous serial interface, or an I2C
interface. (exact interface method
depends on the device used).These
character controllers / drivers also
contain an area of mask ROM,
containing the character set supported
by each device. Customers can use the
standard character sets supplied by
Hitachi, these character sets contain a
range of standard alpha-numeric
characters. Most devices also allow the
user to create their own custom
character sets in the mask ROM, using
Hitachi Software, but there would be a
minimum order quantity and NRE
associated with this.
Most of our character controllers
/drivers are based on the HD44780
type device, many of these devices
offering a superset of the features
found on the 44780.These include
features such as the ability to blink
characters automatically, the ability to
turn the cursor on and off, double
height characters and the ability to
scroll the display in various directions.
Hitachi’s character controllers/ drivers
are designed to minimise the external
circuitry needed to implement LCD
drive capability. Many of these devices
come with on-board DC-DC
converters, designed to multiply the
supply voltage to provide the LCD
drive voltage. Icon drive is also present
on many of the devices, to provide the
ability to drive icons on a custom
display, separately from the alpha-
numeric characters.
Following the requirements of power

controller /Graphic controller that
displays Japanese characters consisting
of Kanji, Hiragana and Katakana
according to the Japanese Kanji set,
level 1 and level 2. It contains an on-
board ROM with a 6,353 Kanji
character fonts and 285 non Kanji
characters. Furthermore, it supports a
display size of 4 lines by 10 characters
(11x12 dots) or a graphic display of
112x52 dots.The HD66732 can drive
240 icons and is interfaced to a host
microcontroller via an 8-bit bus or
synchronous serial interface. In
addition, it incorporates Key Pad Scan
and the Super-Impose function for
Graphic/Dot Matrix Character
displays.The HD66732 operates with
a supply voltage of 2.2-5.5V and is
available in TCP and COG packages.

sensitive applications, such as mobile
phone handsets, Hitachi’s character
drivers have a multitude of low power
modes (LPM), with some devices
operating with voltages as low as 2.4V
(with on-board DC-DC converter for
LCD drive voltage generation ).These
devices have very low power
consumption figures, with the best
devices providing active displays while
taking less than 10µA. Other features
such as static icons drive, and standby
modes further decrease the power
consumption during operation. Figures
for the HD66717 are shown in the
following table.
K e y s c a nc o n t r o l l e r sHitachi also produce a range of
Character controllers/drivers that have
an additional Key Pad Scan control
function (KPS), these devices are
aimed specifically at mobile phone
applications, where the LCD display
and the membrane keypad are
manufactured as one unit.These
devices provide a single chip solution
for these applications.

Sometimes the display capability of
the standard LCD characters drivers is
not sufficient for an application.
Hitachi offers extension drivers that
are designed to increase the number of
alpha-numeric characters that can be
displayed from one display controller
driver. Many of the standard LCD
controllers/drivers contain extra RAM
and the necessary control signals to
drive one or more of these extension
drivers.
The HD66002 and HD66100, the
latest expansion drivers to be added to
our product line, can be used with a
number of our LCD drivers, including
the HD44780U, HD66710, HD66712
& HD66720 For instance, the
HD44780U, can display 2 lines of 8
characters, so if used with two
HD66002’s it can control and display
2 lines of 40 characters, i.e. when used
with HD44780U, each HD66002 can
display 2 lines of 16 characters. Refer
to page 4 in order to get more
information about HD66002 and
HD66100.

In the past, Liquid Crystal Modules
(LCM) were produced by using
LCDC in QFP and TQFP (1.2mm
high) packages. Following the market
trend to increase the pin-count and to
shrink the package size,Tape Carrier
packages (TCP) have been developed.
TCP is the generic name for packages
fabricated by TAB technology (TAP
Automatic Bonding), using a tape
wired with copper-foil patterns.This
designation has been adopted by the
EIAJ Semiconductor External
Standards Committee. Compared to
conventional packages the structure
and the materials of TCP provide the
following features:
1. Light weight
2. Thin
3. Fine pitch capability
4. Flexible design
Fine pitch leads mean a reduced pad
pitch on the device, enabling more
functionality to be put into the same
package size. Combined with thickness
less than 1.0mm (typically 0.65mm),
this feature translated into thinner
LCD modules with higher definition,
or into compact, high performance
system. Flexible design includes the
possibility of customisation of pattern
layout and TCP design. Currently,
Hitachi offers tape-carrier-packaged
LCD versions in the area of
Column/Common Graphic and Dot
Matrix Character product areas.
These LCD drivers combine a device
that withstands high voltages and gives
high definition and a tape carrier
package which promises excellent
reliability, making possible applications
P a c k a g e T e c h n o l o g y
that would not be feasible with a
conventional QFP.With the chip-
specialised LCM manufactures, Hitachi
developed Chip-On-Board (COB)
and Chip-On-Glass (COG)
technology as well.
The Chip-On-Board version consists
of the base chip with AL pads
whereas the COG version reflects the
chip with Au bumps which allow
direct assembly on the LCD glass.
Looking at the line-ups on the
previous pages, it can be seen that
Hitachi focuses on this type of
products.
