ML9042-xx
DOT MATRIX LCD CONTROLLER DRIVER
FEDL9042-01
Issue Date: Nov. 19, 2003
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ML9042 used in combination with an 8-bit or 4-bit microcontroller controls the operation of a character type
dot matrix LCD.
FEATURES
 Easy interfacing with an 8-bit or 4-bit microcontroller
 Switchable between serial and parallel interfaces
 Dot-matrix LCD controller driver for a 5  8 dot font
 Built-in circuit allowing automatic resetting at power-on
 Built-in 17 common signal drivers and 100 segment signal drivers
 Two built-in character generator ROMs each capable of generating 240 characters (5  8 dots)
 The character generator ROM can be selected by bank switching (ROM1S) pin.
 Creation of character patterns by programming: up to 8 character patterns (5  8 dots)
 Built-in RC oscillation circuit using external or internal resistors
 Program-selectable duties
When ABE bit is “L”: 1/8 duty (1 line: 5  8 dots), or 1/16 duty (2 lines: 5  8 dots)
When ABE bit is “H”: 1/9 duty (1 line: 5  8 dots + arbitrator), or 1/17 duty (2 lines: 5  8 dots + arbitrator)
 Cursor display
 Built-in bias dividing resistors to drive the LCD
 Bi-directional transfer of segment outputs
 Bi-directional transfer of common outputs
 100-dot arbitrator display
 Line display shifting
 Built-in voltage multiplier circuit
 Gold Bump Chip
