1. REVISION RECORD VERSION

Displaytech Ltd LCD MODULE DT018ATFT Version: 1.0

2. Introduction DT018ATFT is a display module that contains a TFT display with a 160 * 128 RGB resolution. The driver used for this project is the Ilitek ILI9163C or compatible and can display 262K colors. The driver is mounted on the glass and the interconnection via FPC including components to drive the display module. (1) Serial interface is available, but not recommendable, as the speed of it is very slow. (2) Recommended mating connector: Hirose FH19SC-45S-0.5SH, FH12S-45S-0.5SH; or (3) Color tune may be changed slightly by temperature and driving voltage. Component Life Cycle 1) Storage...

5. Interface Description Pin no__Symbol Backlight anode. Backlight cathode K1 Backlight cathode K2 MCU parallel interface type selection MCU Parallel interface bus and Serial interface select I - IM2 = ‘1’; Parallel Interface - IM2 = ‘0’; Serial Interface RGB and MCU interface mode selection pin When RCM1, RCM0=‘1X’(RGB I/F), serial input/output signal in serial I/F mode. The data is input on the rising edge of the SCL signal. The data is output on the falling edge of the SCL signal. When RCM1, RCM0=‘0X’(MCU I/F), this pin is not used, and fix at VDDI or GND level. If not used, please fix this...

6. Absolute Maximum Ratings (Ta=25°C) See Display Controller Specification: Ilitek ILI9163C

Note 1: The data are measured after LEDs are turned on for 5 minutes. LCM displays full white. The brightness is the average value of 9 measured spots. Measurement equipment PR-705 (08mm) Measuring condition: - Measuring surroundings: Dark room. - 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 2: The luminance uniformity is calculated by using following formula. ABp = Bp (Min.) / Bp (Max.) x 100 (%) Bp (Max.) = Maximum brightness in 9 measured spots Bp (Min.)...

DT018ATFT Version: 1.0 Note 4: The definition of contrast ratio (Test LCM using PR-705): Luminance When LCD is at “White” state Luminance When LCD is at Black state (Contrast Ratio is measured in optimum common electrode voltage) Note 5: Definition of Response time. (Test LCD using DMS501): The output signals of photo detector are measured when the input signals are changed from “black” to “white” (falling time) and from “white” to “black” (rising time), respectively. The response time is defined as the time interval between the 10% and 90% of amplitudes. Refer to figure as below. The definition...

11. Safety PrecautionHandling precautions: • This device is susceptible to Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) damage. Observe Anti-Static precautions. Power supply precautions: • Identify and, at all times, observe absolute maximum ratings for both logic and LC drivers. Note that there is some variance between models. • Prevent the application of reverse polarity to VCC and GND, however briefly. • Use a clean power source free from transients. Power up conditions are occasionally “jolting” and may exceed the maximum ratings of the modules. • The VCC power of the module should also supply the power...
