LCD logic and backlight power

The display signals are +3.3V compatible. The ZEUS contains power control circuitry

for the flat panel logic supply and backlight supply. The flat panel logic is supplied with

a switched 3.3V (default) or 5V supply (for details see the section

JP3 – LCD logic

supply selection

, page

94

). The backlight is supplied with a switched 5V supply for the

inverter.

The power switches (TPS2033D) for flat panel logic and backlight have the current-

limiting (1.5A) and thermal protection features which eliminates the need for the fuses.

The PXA270 GPIO101 pin (LCDEN signal) controls the supply voltage to the LCD

display.

The PXA270 GPIO19 pin (BKLEN signal) controls the supply voltage to the backlight

inverter:

The BKLEN signal is also routed to the connector J14. See the section

J14 – LCD

connector

, page

, for J14 pin assignment and connector details.

Signals BKLEN and BKLSAFE are also routed to the connector J24. See the section

J24 – Backlight power

, page

92

, for further details.

Typically the power up sequence is as follows (please check the datasheet for the

particular panel in use):

1

Enable display power.

2

Enable flat panel interface.

3

Enable

backlight.

Power down is in reverse order.
