(B) When an External Resistance is Used
(i.e., The V5 Voltage Regulator Internal
Resistors Are Not Used) (1)
The liquid crystal power supply voltage V5 can also be
set without using the V5 voltage regulator internal
resistors (IRS terminal = “L”) by adding resistors Ra’
and Rb’ between VDD and VR, and between VR and V5,
respectively. When this is done, the use of the electronic
volume function makes it possible to adjust the brightness
of the liquid crystal display by controlling the liquid
crystal power supply voltage V5 through commands.
In the range where | V5 | < | VOUT |, the V5 voltage can
be calculated using equation B-1 based on the external
resistances Ra’ and Rb’.

Setup example: When selecting Ta = 25°C and V5 = –
7 V for an SED1567 Series model where the temperature
gradient = –0.05%/°C.
When the central value of the electron volume register
is (D5, D4, D3, D2, D1, D0) = (1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0), then α
= 31 and VREG = –2.1 V so, according to equation B-1,
Consequently, by equations B-2 and B-3,
Rb' = 3.12

Ra' = 340kΩ

Moreover, when the value of the current running through
Ra’ and Rb’ is set to 5 µA,
Ra' +Rb' = 1.4MΩ
(Equation B-3)
At this time, the V5 voltage variable range and notch

given in Table 14.
