TEST
The TEST pin serves two functions. It is coupled to the
internally generated digital supply through a 500Ω resistor.
Thus it can be used as the negative supply for externally
generated segment drivers such as decimal points or any
other presentation the user may want to include on the LCD
display. Figures 6 and 7 show such an application. No more
than a 1mA load should be applied.
The second function is a “lamp test”. When TEST is pulled
high (to V+) all segments will be turned on and the display
should read “-1888”. The TEST pin will sink about 10mA
under these conditions.
Digital Section
Figure 8 shows the digital section for the ICL7126. An internal
digital ground is generated from a 6V Zener diode and a large
P-Channel source follower. This supply is made stiff to absorb
the relative large capacitive currents when the back plane (BP)
voltage is switched. The BP frequency is the clock frequency
divided by 800. For three readings/second this is a 60Hz
square wave with a nominal amplitude of 5V. The segments are
driven at the same frequency and amplitude and are in phase
with BP when OFF, but out of phase when ON. In all cases
negligible DC voltage exists across the segments. The polarity
indication is “ON” for negative analog inputs. If IN LO and IN HI
are reversed, this indication can be reversed also, if desired.
System Timing
Figure 9 shows the clocking arrangement used in the
ICL7126. Two basic clocking arrangements can be used:
Figure 9A, an external oscillator connected to pin 40.
Figure 9B, an R-C oscillator using all three pins.
The oscillator frequency is divided by four before it clocks the
decade counters. It is then further divided to form the three
convert-cycle phases. These are signal integrate (1000 counts),
reference de-integrate (0 to 2000 counts) and auto-zero (1000
CAUTION: In the lamp test mode, the segments have a constant DC volt-
age (no square-wave) and may burn the LCD display if left in this mode for
several minutes.

to 3000 counts). For signals less than full-scale, auto-zero gets
the unused portion of reference de-integrate. This makes a
complete measure cycle of 4,000 counts (16,000 clock pulses)
independent of input voltage. For three readings/second, an
oscillator frequency of 48kHz would be used.
To achieve maximum rejection of 60Hz pickup, the signal
integrate cycle should be a multiple of 60Hz. Oscillator
frequencies of 60kHz, 48kHz, 40kHz, 33
be selected. For 50Hz rejection, oscillator frequencies of
66
40kHz (2.5 readings/sec.) will reject both 50Hz and 60Hz
(also 400Hz and 440Hz).
