PCF8576D Universal LCD Driver For Low Multiplex Rates

The PCF8576D is a peripheral device which Interfaces to almost any Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) with low multiplex rates. It generates the drive signals for any static or multiplexed LCD containing up to four Backplanes and up to 40 segments and CAN easily be cascaded for larger LCD applications. The PCF8576D is compatible with most Microprocessors Microcontrollers and communicates via a two-line bidirectional I2C-bus. Communication overheads are minimized by a Display RAM with auto-incremental addressing, by hardware subaddressing and by Display memory switching (static and duplex drive modes).
