14. Application information
14.1 Cascaded operation
In large display configurations, up to 16 PCF8576Ds can be differentiated on the same
I
2
C-bus by using the 3-bit hardware subaddresses (A0, A1 and A2) and the
programmable I
2
C-bus slave address (SA0).

PCF8576D
40 × 4 universal LCD driver for low multiplex rates
PCF8576Ds connected in cascade are synchronized to allow the backplane signals from
only one device in the cascade to be shared. This arrangement is cost-effective in large
LCD applications since the backplane outputs of only one device need to be
through-plated to the backplane electrodes of the display. The other PCF8576D of the
cascade contribute additional segment outputs. The backplanes can either be connected
together to enhance the drive capability or some can be left open-circuit (such as the ones
from the slave in Figure 23
) or just some of the master and some of the slave will be taken
to facilitate the layout of the display.
All PCF8576Ds connected in cascade are correctly synchronized by the SYNC
signal.
This synchronization is guaranteed after the power-on reset. The only time that SYNC
is
likely to be needed is if synchronization is lost accidentally, for example, by noise in
adverse electrical environments, or if the LCD multiplex drive mode is changed in an
application using several cascaded PCF8576Ds, as the drive mode cannot be changed
on all of the cascaded devices simultaneously. SYNC
can be either an input or an output
signal; a SYNC
output is implemented as an open-drain driver with an internal pull-up
resistor. The PCF8576D asserts SYNC
at the start of its last active backplane signal and
monitors the SYNC
line at all other times. If cascade synchronization is lost, it is restored
by the first PCF8576D to assert SYNC
. The timing relationship between the backplane
waveforms and the SYNC
signal for each LCD drive mode is shown in Figure 24.
The contact resistance between the SYNC
on each cascaded device must be controlled.
If the resistance is too high, the device is not able to synchronize properly; this is
particularly applicable to chip-on-glass applications. The maximum SYNC
contact
resistance allowed for the number of devices in cascade is given in Table 22
.
