COP472-3 Liquid Crystal Display Controller
General Description
Features
The COP472–3 Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) Controller is a
peripheral member of the COPSTM family, fabricated using
CMOS technology. The COP472-3 drives a multiplexed liquid crystal display directly. Data is loaded serially and is held
in internal latches. The COP472-3 contains an on-chip oscillator and generates all the multi-level waveforms for backplanes and segment outputs on a triplex display. One
COP472-3 can drive 36 segments multiplexed as 3 x 12
(4(/2 digit display). Two COP472-3 devices can be used together to drive 72 segments (3 x 24) which could be an 8(/2
digit display.

Functional Description
The COP472-3 drives 36 bits of display information organized as twelve segments and three backplanes. The
COP472-3 requires 40 information bits: 36 data and 4 control. The function of each control bit is described below.
Display information format is a function of the LCD interconnections. A typical segment/backplane configuration is illustrated in Figure 5 , with this configuration the COP472-3 will
drive 4 digits of 9 segments.
To adapt the COP472-3 to any LCD display configuration,
the segment/backplane multiplex scheme is illustrated in
Table I.
Two or more COP472-3 chips can be cascaded to drive
additional segments. There is no limit to the number of
COP472-3’s that can be used as long as the output loading
capacitance does not exceed specification.
SEGMENT DATA BITS
Data is loaded in serially, in sets of eight bits. Each set of
segment data is in the following format:

Data is shifted into an eight bit shift register. The first bit of
the data is for segment H, digit 1. The eighth bit is segment
A, digit 1. A set of eight bits is shifted in and then loaded into
the digit one latches. The second set of 8 bits is loaded into
digit two latches. The third set into digit three latches, and
the fourth set is loaded into digit four latches.

The first four bits shifted in contain the special character

of the master is connected to BPA of each slave. The following table summarizes the function of bits six and seven:

7. Turn CS high.
Note: CS may be turned high after any step. For example to
load only 2 digits of data, do steps 1, 2, 3, and 7.
CS must make a high to low transition before loading data in
order to reset internal counters.
LOADING SEQUENCE TO DRIVE AN
8(/2-DIGIT DISPLAY
Two or more COP472-3’s may be connected together to
drive additional segments. An eight digit multiplexed display
is shown in Figure 7 . The following is the loading sequence
to drive an eight digit display using two COP472-3’s. The
right chip is the master and the left the slave.
Steps:
1. Turn CS low on both COP472-3’s.
TL/DD/6932 – 6
FIGURE 6. System Diagram – 4(/2 Digit Display
2. Shift in 32 bits of data for the slave’s four digits.
3. Shift in 4 bits of special segment data: a zero and three
ones.

This synchronizes both the chips and BPA is oscillator
input. Both chips are now stopped.
Turn CS high to both chips.
Turn CS low to master COP472-3.
Shift in 32 bits of data for the master’s 4 digits.
Shift in four bits of special segment data, a one and
three zeros.

This sets the master COP472-3 to BPA as a normal
backplane output and BPC as oscillator output. Now
both the chips start and run off the same oscillator.
8. Turn CS high.
The chips are now synchronized and driving 8 digits of display. To load new data simply load each chip separately in
the normal manner, keeping the correct status bits to each
COP472-3 (0110 or 0001).
