15.8 Supplying LCD Drive Voltages VLC0, VLC1, VLC2 and VLC3
With the 78K0/LC3, a LCD drive power supply can be generated using either of two types of methods: internal
resistance division method or external resistance division method.
15.8.1 Internal resistance division method
The 78K0/LC3 incorporates voltage divider resistors for generating LCD drive power supplies. Using internal
voltage divider resistors, a LCD drive power supply that meet each bias method listed in Table 15-9 can be generated,
without using external voltage divider resistors.

Note For the 1/2 bias method, it is necessary to connect the V
LC1 and VLC2 pins externally.
Figure 15-23 shows examples of generating LCD drive voltages internally according to Table 15-9.

Remark It is recommended to use the external resistance division method when using the static display mode, in
order to reduce power consumed by the voltage divider resistor.
