Note 1.5-1: This pin (CS#) is the chip select input connecting to the MCU. The
chip is enabled for MCU communication: only when CS# is pulled LOW.
Note 1.5-2: This pin (D/C#) is Data/Command control pin connecting to the MCU.
When the pin is pulled HIGH, the data will be interpreted as data. When the pin is
pulled LOW, the data will be interpreted as command.
Note 1.5-3: This pin (RES#) is reset signal input. The Reset is active low.
Note 1.5-4: This pin (BUSY) is Busy state output pin. When Busy is High the operation
of chip should not be interrupted and any commands should not be issued to the
module. The driver IC will put Busy pin High when the driver IC is working such as:
- Outputting display waveform; or
- Communicating with digital temperature sensor
Note 1.5-5: This pin (BS1) is for 3-line SPI or 4-line SPI selection. When it is
“Low”, 4-line SPI is selected. When it is “High”, 3-line SPI (9 bits SPI) is selected.

1.6 Reference Circuit
Note:
1. Inductor L1 is wire-wound inductor. There are no special requirements
for other parameters.
2. Suggests using Si1304BDL or Si1308EDL TUBE MOS (Q1) , otherwise it
may affect the normal boost of the circuit.
3. The default circuit is 4-wire SPI. If the user wants to use 3-wire SPI.
4. Default voltage value of all capacitors is 50V.
