Power Requirements
The LC640.480.33-AC display requires two power supplies: +5 Vdc for the LCD logic
and +12 Vdc for the backlight. In Table 6 below, the backlight current and power are
referenced to maximum luminance, 25 °C ambient temperature.

CAUTION: Absolute maximum ratings are those values beyond which damage to

Undervoltage Lockout (Backlight only)
An undervoltage lockout (UVLO) function is included which disables the backlight
under excessively low V
