Application Information
The application circuit to adjust the VCOM voltage in an LCD
panel is shown in Figure
1. The ISL45042A has a 128-step
sink current resolution. The output is connected to an
external voltage divider, that results in decreasing the output
VCOM voltage as you increase the ISL45042A sink current.
CTL Pin
The adjustment of the output VCOM voltage and the
programming of the non-volatile memory are provided
through a single pin called CTL when the CE pin is high.
The output VCOM voltage is increased with a mid (VDD/2) to
high transition (0.8*VDD) on the CTL pin. The output VCOM
voltage is decreased with a mid (VDD/2) to low transition
(0.3*VDD) on the CTL pin (see Figure 7). Once the minimum or maximum value is reached on the 128 steps, the device
will not overflow or underflow beyond that minimum or
maximum value.
Programming of the non-volatile memory occurs when the
CTL pin exceeds 4.9V. The CTL signal needs to remain
above 4.9V for more than 200s. The level and timing

NOTES:
3. CTL signal only needs to be greater than 4.9V to program EEPROM.
4. Tested at AVDD = 20V.
5. The Counter value is set to mid-scale ±4 LSB’s in the Production.
6. Simulated and Determined via Design and NOT Directly Tested.
7. Simulated Maximum Current Draw when Programming EEPROM is 23mA; should be considered when designing Power Supply.
9. Parameters with MIN and/or MAX limits are 100% tested at +25°C, unless otherwise specified. Temperature limits established by characterization
and are not production tested.
Electrical Specifications
Test Conditions: VDD = 3V, AVDD = 10V, OUT = 5V, RSET = 24.9kΩ; Unless Otherwise Specified.
Typicals are at TA = +25°C (Continued)
