Power Requirements
The LC640. 480. 21-065 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.

Power Sequencing (LCD)
When performing power sequencing: · Ensure the supply voltage for input signals is the same as for VCC. When the backlight turns on before LCD operation or the LCD operation turns off before the backlight turns off, the display may momentarily become white. · When the power is off, keep whole signals (Hsync, Vsync, CLK, DE, and DATA) low level or high impedance.

VALID Power-off
The supply voltage for input signals should be the same as VCC. When the backlight turns on before LCD operation or the LCD operation turns off before the backlight turns off, the display may momentarily become white. When the power is off, please keep whole signals (Hsync, Vsync, CLK, DE, and DATA) low level or high impedance.

Video Characteristics
Colors are developed in combination with 6-bit signals (64 steps in grayscale) of each primary red, green, and blue color. The mapping of the eighteen video data inputs is shown in Table 9.

"F" means full-luminous dot(s), bright point independent from viewing angle. "H" means half-luminous dot(s), bright point dependent on viewing angle. Dark dots are counted while the screen is illuminated with Red, Green, or Blue dots only. Adjacency is considered separately for each color; adjacency among Red, Green, and Blue is not considered as adjacent. [. . . ]
