240RGB × 320-Dot 1-Chip Driver IC with Built-in RAM
for 262,144-Color TFT-LCD Panel
Rev. 0.03

Overview
The BD663474 is 1-chip solution for TFT-LCD in 262,144 colors. It incorporates source driver, gate driver, and
power supply circuits to drive a color TFT liquid crystal display. This 1-chip solution can display 240RGB×320-dot
graphics on the panel.
High-speed 8-, 9-, 16-, 18-bit bus interfaces and serial peripheral interface that are used as the system interface with
the microcomputer enable efficient data transfer as well as high-speed rewriting of graphic RAM. The BD663474 is
also equipped with 6/16/18 bits RGB-I/F (VSYNC, HSYNC, DOTCLK, and ENABLE) to interface with moving
images.
low voltage up
to 1.65V, which can minimize
The BD663474 supports functions to reduce power consumption of the LCD system. The system interface can be
operated with a
to
charging/discharging of the LCD module wiring and can transfer data at high-speed as well. The BD663474
incorporates a voltage follower circuit to generate a liquid crystal drive voltage as well as another voltage follower
circuit to drive large-volume liquid crystal for every output. These circuits can be built into the optimum setting by
the software, taking the picture quality and the power consumption into account. Functions such as the partial display
and the standby function supported by the BD663474 enable precise power management by software. These features
make this LSI an optimum LSI for medium or small-sized portable products with color displays such as WWW
browser-equipped digital cellular phones or small PDAs, where long battery life is a major concern.
