PIC16LF1904/6/7
19.3 LCD Bias Voltage Generation
The LCD module can be configured for one of three
bias types:
Static Bias (2 voltage levels: V
SS and VLCD)
1/2 Bias (3 voltage levels: VSS, 1/2 VLCD and
V
LCD)
1/3 Bias (4 voltage levels: VSS, 1/3 VLCD,
2/3 V
LCD and VLCD)
TABLE 19-2: LCD BIAS VOLTAGES
So that the user is not forced to place external compo-
nents and use up to three pins for bias voltage generation,
internal contrast control and an internal reference ladder
are provided internally to the PIC16LF1904/6/7. Both of
these features may be used in conjunction with the exter-
nal VLCD<3:1> pins, to provide maximum flexibility. Refer
to Figure 19-3.
