FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
P84 to P87 FLD output reverse function
P84 to P87 are provided with a function to reverse the polarity of the
FLD output. This function is useful in adjusting the polarity when
using an externally installed driver.
The output polarity can be reversed by setting “1” to bit 0 of the port
P8 FLD output control register.
P84 to P87 FLDRAM write disable function
This function can disable writing data in the RAM area correspond-
ing to P84 to P87. This function can be set by setting “1” to bit 1 of the
port P8FLD output control register (address 0EFC16).
P84 to P87 Toff invalid function
P84 to P87 can output waveform in which Toff is invalid, when P84 to
P87 is selected FLD ports (See Figure 52).
The function is useful when using a 4 bits
→16 bits decoder. The Toff
can be invalid by setting “1” to bit 2 of the port P8FLD output control
register (address 0EFC16).
P84 to P87 output delay function
P84 to P87 can output waveform in which is delayed for 16
s, when
selecting FLD port and selecting Toff invalid function (See Figure
52). When using a 4 bits
→16 bits decoder, the function can be use-
ful for prevention of leak radiation caused by phase discrepancy be-
tween segment output waveform and digit output waveform. This func-
tion can be set by setting “1” to bit 3 of the port P8FLD output control
register (address 0EFC16).
Dimmer signal output function
P63 can output the dimmer signal. When using a 4 bits
→16 bits
decoder, the dimmer signal can be used as a control signal for a 4
bits
→16 bits decoder. When using M35501FP, the dimmer signal
can be used as the CLK signal. The dimmer signal can be output by
setting “1” to bit 4 of the port P8FLD output control register (address
0EFC16).

Toff2 SET/RESET change function
The value of the Toff2 time set register is valid when gradation dis-
play mode is selected. The FLD ports output (set) the data of display
RAM at the end of the Toff1 time and output “0” (reset) at the end of
the Toff2 time, when bit 7 of the port P8FLD output control register is
“0”.
The FLD ports output (set) the data of display RAM at the end of the
Toff2 time and output “0” (reset) at the end of Tdisp time, when bit 7
of the port P8FLD output control register is “1”.
