JAJSG74C February 2012 – September 2018 DS90C187
PRODUCTION DATA.
The VDD power supply pins do not require a specific power on sequence and can be powered on in any order. However, the PDB pin should only be set to logic HIGH once the power sent to all supply pins is stable. Active data inputs should not be applied to the DS90C187 until all of the input power pins have been powered on, settled to the recommended operating voltage and the PDB pin has be set to logic HIGH.
The user experience can be impacted by the way a system powers up and powers down an LCD screen. The following sequence is recommended:
Power up sequence (DS90C187 PDB input initially LOW):
Power Down sequence (DS90C187 PDB input initially HIGH):
The DS90C187 is highly sensitive to the VDD input. Even small levels on the VDD pin prior to full power up should be avoided. The user should additionally take care to not drive or pull up the CMOS inputs to the device prior to device power up so as to ensure proper power on behavior.
