PCF8578T/1,118 Overview

The PCF8578 is a low power CMOS LCD row and column driver, designed to drivedot matrix graphic displays at multiplex rates of 1:8, 1:16, 1:24 or 1:32. The devicehas 40 outputs, of which 24 are programmable and configurable for the following ratiosof rows/columns: 32/8, 24/16, 16/24 or 8/32. The PCF8578 can function as a stand-aloneLCD controller and driver for use in small systems. For larger systems it can be used inconjunction with up to 32 PCF8579s for which it has been optimized. Together these twodevices form a general purpose LCD dot matrix driver chip set, capable of drivingdisplays of up to 40960 dots. The PCF8578 is compatible with most microcontrollers andcommunicates via a two-line bidirectional bus (I2C-bus). Communication overhead isminimized by a display RAM with auto-incremented addressing and display bankswitching.
