Table 2: FRAME 170Hz mode
Note: The varied PWM data displays various
gray scale in TN-type, STN-type LCDs.
The color display derives from ECB-type
LCD s specification.
satisfactory gray scale in every level. HT1647 pro-
vides 5-bit PWM data to control the length of the
section. In other words, a max. Of 24 gray scales
are generated by 5-bit binary PWM data. At
FRAME 89Hz mode, the HT1647 only provides a
max. of 24 adjustable gray scales although 32 is
the expressed max. value by 5 bits binary code.
When5bitsbinarycodevalueismorethan23,the
PWM control circuit uniformly regards 23. To in-
crease PWM data indicates to increase the length
of the active segment signal. The varied length of
the active segment signal displays varied gray
scale in TN-type, STN-type LCDs (refer to table
1). Similarly, it displays varied color in ECB-type
LCDs. The color display is derived from
ECB-type LCD specification. At FRAME 170Hz
mode, the HT1647 only provides a max. of 13 ad-
justable gray scales although 32 is the expressed
max. value by 5 bits binary code. When the 5 bits
binary code value is more than 12, the PWM con-
trol circuit uniformly regards 12. The user must
appoint four kinds of PWM data to four kinds of
different gray scale level by commanding PWM
data (refer to table 2).
