GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The PCF8535 is a low power CMOS LCD row/column driver, designed to drive dot matrix graphic displays at multiplex rates of 1 : 17, 1 : 26, 1 : 34, 1 : 49 and 1 : 65. Furthermore, it can drive up to 133 icons. All necessary functions for the display are provided in a single chip, including on-chip generation of LCD bias voltages, resulting in a minimum of external components and low power consumption. The PCF8535 is compatible with most microcontrollers and communicates via an industry standard two-line bidirectional I2C-bus serial interface. All inputs are CMOS compatible.
