PCF8566TS/1,118

Display Drivers Overview

The PCF8566TS/1,118 is a CMOS LCD driver manufactured by NXP USA Inc., designed for low-power applications. It features a 40-VSO (BSOP) surface-mount package and operates on a supply voltage of 2.5V to 6V with a typical supply current of 30 µA. The device supports an I²C interface and functions within a temperature range of -40°C to 85°C. It is configured to drive displays with up to 7 segments plus a decimal point or 14 segments (24 segments total), supporting up to 12 digits or 6 characters across 96 elements. This component is currently marked as obsolete.

Display Drivers Feature Summary

• Integrates display RAM with auto-incremented addressing to minimize communication overhead via the I²C bus.
• Supports hardware subaddressing for efficient data transfer to the LCD segment drives.
• Provides flexible configuration for driving static or multiplexed LCDs with various segment counts.

Display Drivers Applications

• Portable instruments requiring low-power display solutions
• Battery-operated electronic devices
• Consumer electronics with segmented LCD interfaces

Display Drivers Procurement Notes

Verify component obsolescence status before design finalization, as this part is listed as obsolete. Confirm that the 40-VSO package dimensions align with existing PCB footprints. Ensure I²C bus compatibility with the host microcontroller at the target operating voltage. Review the official datasheet for any specific handling or storage requirements related to the BSOP package type.

Display Drivers Selection Notes

Select this component when a dedicated LCD driver with I²C control is required for small to medium-sized segmented displays. Consider the 30 µA supply current for battery life calculations. Verify that the 2.5V to 6V operating range matches the system power rails. The 40-pin BSOP package may limit placement options compared to smaller packages; check mechanical constraints during selection.

Display Drivers Part Context

This part belongs to the PCF8566 family of LCD drivers from NXP Semiconductors. It shares functional similarities with other members like the PCF8566T but differs in packaging and suffix codes. The TS suffix typically denotes a specific tape-and-reel packaging variant within the BSOP form factor. It serves as a peripheral interface between microcontrollers and LCD panels in embedded systems.

Display Drivers Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. As the component is obsolete, engineering change orders should be initiated to identify alternative drivers with compatible pinouts and I²C registers.
