It may necessary to config the TFT Driver through SPI interface to provide best display result.
*2. For CCIR601/CCIR656 Interface, only R0-R7 is used. For unused pins (B0-B7,G0-G7), please
connect to GND or floating. The interface is selected by the SPI initial code.
Default setting is parallel 24-bit RGB interface.
*3: For digital RGB input data format, both SYNC mode and DE+SYNC mode are supported.
If DEN signal is fixed low. SYNC mode is used. Otherwise, DE+SYNC is used

Note 1:
Note 2:
The data are measured after LEDs are turned on for 5 minutes.
The luminance uniformity is calculated by using following
LCM displays full white. The brightness is the average value of 9
formula.
measured spots. Measurement equipment PR-705 (Φ8mm)
△ Bp = Bp (Min.) / Bp (Max.)×100 (%)
Measuring condition:
Bp (Max.) = Maximum brightness in 9 measured spots
- Measuring surroundings: Dark room
- Measuring temperature: Ta=25 ℃ .
Bp (Min.) = Minimum brightness in 9 measured spots .
- Adjust operating voltage to get optimum contrast at the
center of the display.
Measured value at the center point of LCD panel after more than 5
minutes while backlight turning on.
Note 3:
Note 4:
The definition of viewing angle:
The definition of contrast ratio (Test LCM using PR-705):
Refer to the graph below marked by θ and Ф
Luminance When LCD is at “White”
Contrast state
Ratio(CR)= Luminance When LCD is at “Black”
state
(Contrast Ratio is measured in optimum common electrode
voltage)
Note 5:
Note 6:
Definition of Response time. (Test LCD using DMS501):
Definition of Color of CIE Coordinate and NTSC Ratio.
The output signals of photo detector are measured
when the input signals are changed from
Color gamut:
“black” to “white”(falling time)
Area of RGB triangle
and from “white” to “black”(rising time), respectively.
S=
X100%
Area of NTSC triangle
The response time is defined as
the time interval between the 10% and 90% of amplitudes.Refer to

7.5 Standby Sequence
To prevent abnormal display that might show on screen,
it is suggest to use to following standby sequence.
Entering standby mode, turn off the backlight BEFORE standby.
Exiting standby mode, turn on the backlight AFTER exiting standby mode, power supply stable and
display ready.
7.6 Reset Function
To prevent from abnormal reset condition, a glitch filter for RSTB is embedded in this chip. The external reset
signal should keep active for large then reset time (T RSTB ). Refer to the AC/DC Specification for the requirement.
