S1C88655 TECHNICAL MANUAL EPSON 1
1 INTRODUCTION
1 INTRODUCTION
The S1C88655 is an 8-bit microcomputer for
portable equipment with an LCD display that has a
built-in LCD controller/driver and a font data
ROM.
The LCD controller/driver contains an LCD drive
power supply circuit and can drive a maximum of
128 × 64-dot LCD panel. The S1C88655 has a built-
in large-capacity ROM that can store various font
data*.
This microcomputer features low-voltage (1.8 V)
and high-speed (8.2 MHz) operations as well as
low-current consumption, for instance, 2 µA in
standby mode (HALT mode with 32-kHz crystal
oscillation).
The S1C88655 is suitable for display modules such
as PDAs and data banks that require a general-
purpose LCD driver in conventional systems as
well as portable CD/MD players and solid audio
equipment with low-power and a small-footprint.
