Passive Monochrome Single-Scan Double-Pixel Mode

Passive monochrome, single-scan, double-pixel mode displays are identical to passive
monochrome, single-scan displays except that the displays transmit twice the number of pixels per
clock. This is accomplished through the use of twice as many data lines. All other signals are
identical.

For passive monochrome single-scan, double-pixel mode displays, see
the pins required for connections between the PXA27x processor and LCD panel.

NOTES:
1. "Pin Type" is in reference to the PXA27x processor. Therefore, outputs are pins that drive a signal from the processor to
another device.
2. Vcon is a signal external to the PXA27x processor. Refer to
Note: Names used for "LCD Panel Pin" are representative names and do not match those on all LCD
panels. Similarly, not all signals are required for all modes of operation. Refer to the LCD panel
reference documentation for information on:

PIn Type Definition
Data lines used to transmit eight data values at a time to the LCD
Output display. Each pin value represents a single pixel. The panel is driven as
if it is two separate panels, each with half the number of lines.
Pixel Clock – used by the LCD display to clock the pixel data into the
Output
line shift register.
Line Clock – used by the LCD display to signal the end of a line of
Output pixels that transfers the line data from the shift register to the screen
and increment the line pointers.
Frame Clock – used by the LCD displays to signal the start of a new
Output
frame of pixels that resets the line pointers to the top of the screen.
AC bias used to signal the LCD display to switch the polarity of the
Output power supplies to the row and column axis of the screen to counteract
DC offset.
Contrast Voltage – Adjustable voltage input to LCD panel – external
N/A
voltage circuitry is required (no pin available on PXA27x processor).
