-High accuracy voltage regulator (temperature coefficient: -0.05%/C or external input)
-Electronic contrast control function (64 steps)
-Vref = 2.1V3% (V0 voltage adjustment voltage)
-High performance voltage follower (V1 to V4 voltage divider resistors and OP-Amp for
increasing drive capacity)
Operating Voltage Range
- Supply voltage (VDD): 2.4 to 3.6 V
- LCD driving voltage (VLCD = V0 - VSS): 4.5 to 13.0 V
Low Power Consumption
-Operating power: 400uA typical. (Condition: VDD = 3V, x 4 boosting(VCI is VDD),V0 = 11V,
internal power supply ON, display OFF and normal mode is selected)
-Standby power: 30uA maximum. (During power save [standby] mode)
Microprocessor interface
-High-speed 8-bit parallel interface with 6800-series or 8080-series. (These LCM masked).
-Serial interface (only write operation) available. (These LCM available).
Chip Select Input
There are /CS1 pins for chip selection. The LCM can interface with an MPU only when /CS is
"L" . When these pins are set to any other combination, RS, E_RDB, and RW_WRB inputs
are disabled and DB0 to DB7 are to be high impedance. And, in case of serial interface, the
internal shift register and the counter are reset.
Parallel / Serial Interface (These LCM use serial interface only)
LCM used ST7565P has three types of interface with an MPU, which are one serial and two
parallel interfaces.
This parallel or serial interface is determined by PS pin as shown in following table.
PS Type CS1B CS2 C68 Interface mode
H 6800-series MPU mode
H Parallel CS1B CS2
L 8080-series MPU mode
L Serial CS1B CS2 * Serial-mode
*: Don't care
Parallel interface (PS = "H")
The 8-bit bi-directional data bus is used in parallel interface and the type of MPU is selected
by C68 as shown in following table.
Microprocessor Selection for Parallel Interface
C68 CS1B CS2 RS E_RDB RW_WRB DB0 to DB7 Interface mode
H CS1B CS2 RS E RW DB0 to DB7 6800-series
L CS1B CS2 RS /RDB /WR DB0 to DB7 8080-series
The type of data transfer is determined by signals at RS, E_RDB and RW_WRB as following Table.

Serial Interface (PS = "L")
When the ST7565P is active, serial data (DB7) and serial clock (DB6) inputs are enabled. And
not active, the internal 8-bit shift register and the 3-bit counter are reset. Serial data can be
read on the rising edge of serial clock going into DB6 and processed as 8-bit parallel data on
the eighth serial clock. Serial data input is display data when RS is high and control data
when RS is low. Since the clock signal (DB6) is easy to be affected by the external noise
caused by the line length, the operation check on the actual machine is recommended.

POWER SUPPLY CIRCUITS
The Power Supply circuits generate the voltage levels necessary to drive liquid crystal driver
circuits with low power consumption and the fewest components. There are voltage converter
circuits, voltage regulator circuits, and voltage follower circuits. They are valid only in master
operation and controlled by power control instruction. For details, refers to "Instruction
Description".
Voltage Converter Circuits
These circuits boost up the electric potential between VCI and VSS to 2, 3, 4 or 5 times
toward positive side and boosted voltage is outputted from VOUT pin. These LCM fixed to 4
times.
Voltage Regulator Circuits
The function of the internal Voltage Regulator circuits is to determine liquid crystal operating
voltage, V0, by adjusting resistors, Ra and Rb, within the range of |V0| < |VOUT|. Because
VOUT is the operating voltage of operational-amplifier circuits, it is necessary to be applied
internally or externally. For the Eq. 1, we determine V0 by Ra, Rb and VEV. The Ra and Rb
are connected internally or externally by INTRS pin. And VEV called the voltage of electronic
volume is determined by Eq. 2, where the parameter a is the value selected by instruction,
"Set Reference Voltage Register", within the range 0 to 63. VREF voltage at Ta= 25C is
shown in table 1.
V0 = ( 1 + Rb / Ra) x VEV [V] ------ (Eq. 1)
VEV=(1-(63-a)/162) x VREF [V]-------(Eq. 2)
TG12864L-04WA0_A00 Page 13 of 31
In Case of Using Internal Resistors, Ra and Rb. (INTRS = "H") (LCM fixed to "L" )
When INTRS pin is "H", resistor Ra is connected internally between VR pin and VSS, and Rb
is connected between V0 and VR. We determine V0 by two instructions, "Regulator Resistor
Select" and "Set Reference Voltage".
The following figure shows V0 voltage measured by adjusting internal regulator resistor ratio
(Rb / Ra) and 6-bit electronic volume registers for each temperature coefficient at Ta = 25C.

Figure 5. Electronic Volume Level
In Case of Using External Resistors, Ra and Rb. (INTRS = "L")
When INTRS pin is "L", it is necessary to connect external regulator resistor Ra between VR
and VSS, and Rb between V0 and VR. Example: For the following requirements
1. LCD driver voltage, V0 = 10V
2. 6-bit reference voltage register = (1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0)
3. Maximum current flowing Ra, Rb = 1uA From Eq. 1
10 = ( 1 + Rb/ Ra) x VEV [V] ------ (Eq. 3)
From Eq. 2
VEV=(1-(63-32)/162) x 2.1 =1.698 [V]-------(Eq. 4)
From requirement 3.
10 / (Rb + Ra)=1 [uA ] ------ (Eq. 5) From equations Eq.3, 4 and 5
Ra @ 1.69 [MW] Rb @ 8.31 [MW]
The following table shows the range of V0 depending on the above requirements.

12) Set Modify-Read
This instruction stops the automatic increment of the column address by the read display data
instruction, but the column address is still increased by the write display data instruction. And
it reduces the load of microprocessor when the data of a specific area is repeatedly changed
during cursor blinking or others. This mode is canceled by the reset Modify-read instruc tion.

21) Power Save (Compound Instruction)
If the entire display ON/OFF instruction is issued during the display OFF state, ST7565P
enters the Power Save status to reduce the power consumption to the static power
consumption value. According to the status of static indicator mode, Power Save is entered to
one mode of sleep and standby mode. When Static Indicator mode is ON, standby mode is
issued. When OFF, sleep mode is issued. Power Save mode is released by the entire display
OFF instruction.
