• Manufacturer Part Number: hd66421
• Description: Ram-provided 160 Channel 4-level Grey Scale Driver For Dot Matrix Graphics Lcd
• Manufacturer: Renesas Electronics Corporation.

Oscillator
The HD66421 incorporates two sets of R-C
oscillator for two display modes: OSC-OSC1
oscillator is used for 32-levels gray scale
display mode and OSC-OSC2 oscillator for
4-levels gray scale display mode. If the internal
oscillator is not used, an appropriate clock
signal must be externally input through the
OSC pin. In this case, the OSC1 and OSC2 pins
must be left unconnected. Oscillation resister
must be placed near LSI, because if capacitance
exists between OSC and OSC1 oscillator may
not work properly. Figure 30 shows oscillator
connections.
Changing Oscillator
Two oscillators are alternated automatically
depending on modes. An external clock must be
input from OSC terminal at any modes.

Clock and Frame Frequency
The HD66421 generates the frame frequency by
dividing the input clock. Clock frequency is
determined with following equation:
The frame frequency is usually 70 to 90 Hz;
when the frame frequency is 70 Hz, for example,
the input clock frequency will be 220 kHz for
32-level gray scale display mode, and 18kHz for
4-level gray scale.
LCD Driving Alternating Cycle
AC voltage needs to be applied to liquid crystals
to prevent deterioration due to DC voltage. This
