3.2.5 Power On/Off Sequence

The document specifies two power-on sequence options for the internal DC/DC power mode (IOVCC=VCCH=1.65V ~ 3.3V, VCI=VCIP=2.6V ~ 3.3V):

Option 1: Host sends initial setting, then SLPOUT and DISP ON.

Power up IOVCC (1.65V ~ 3.3V).
Power up VCI (2.6V ~ 3.3V) with a ramp time (
$t_{Ramp}$
) of 0.2ms to 20ms.
Wait for
$t_{RPWIRES}$
>= 10ms.
Apply HW Reset with a pulse width (
$T_{RESETL}$
) of 10μs.
Wait 5ms.
Send Initial Setting commands.
Send SLPOUT (0x11) command.
Wait 120ms.
Send DISP ON (0x29) command.

Option 2: Host only sends SLPOUT and DISP ON.

Power up IOVCC (1.65V ~ 3.3V).
Power up VCI (2.6V ~ 3.3V) with a ramp time (
$t_{Ramp}$
) of 0.2ms to 20ms.
Wait for
$t_{RPWIRES}$
>= 10ms.
Apply HW Reset with a pulse width (
$T_{RESETL}$
) of 10μs.
Wait 5ms.
Send SLPOUT (0x11) command.
Wait 120ms.
Send DISP ON (0x29) command.

Key Timing Observation:

The power-up ramp time for VCI/IOVCC is between 0.2ms and 20ms.
After hardware reset, a 5ms wait is required before sending commands.
After SLPOUT command, a 120ms wait is required before sending DISP ON.

Viewing Angle: Determined for the horizontal (3, 9 o'clock) and vertical (6, 12 o'clock) directions. The module has 60° (Typ) viewing angles in all directions.
Response Time: Ambient temperature = 25°C. Response time is the time required for the display to transition from white to black (Rising time, Tr) and from black to white (Falling time, Tf).
Contrast Ratio (CR): Measured at the center of the LCD surface. CR = Luminance (white raster) / Luminance (black raster).
Luminance: Measured at the center point across the LCD surface 500mm from the surface with all pixels displaying white.
Color Chromaticity: Measured with C light source.

4. Application Guidelines & Critical Notes

Intended Use

Low-cost IoT devices
Simple user interfaces requiring compact size
Applications where resolution requirements are modest (128x128)
Wearable devices, smart home controls, miniature instruments

Critical Design Considerations

Interface (SPI): This module uses an SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) for communication. The host MCU must have at least 5 GPIOs (SCL, SDA, RS, RESET, CS) to drive the display.
Power Supply:
- Provide stable VCC2.8 (2.8V typical) for the analog circuits.
- Provide stable IOVCC1.8 (1.8V typical) for the I/O interface.
- The backlight requires a constant-current LED driver set to 40 mA at 3.2V (Typ).
Power-On Sequence: Strictly follow the power-on sequence described in Section 3.2.5 to ensure proper initialization. The sequence requires:
- Power up IOVCC and VCI with a ramp time of 0.2ms to 20ms.
- Wait for
  $t_{RPWIRES}$
  >= 10ms.
- Apply hardware reset with a pulse width of 10μs.
- Wait 5ms before sending commands.
- Send SLPOUT command and wait 120ms before sending DISP ON.
Mechanical Integration:
- Module Outline: 27.9mm (H) × 32.64mm (V) × 2.1mm (D).
- Active Area: 25.5mm × 26.5mm.
- Bezel Opening: Design the housing window 0.3mm smaller per side than the viewing area.
- Foam Gasket: Design the cutout 0.6mm larger per side than the viewing area.
- FPC: The module uses a 15-pin FPC. The exact pitch is not specified in the excerpt, but should be verified from the mechanical drawing.
Reset Timing: The reset pulse must be at least 10 μs wide. The reset complete time is 5 ms or 120 ms, depending on the specific condition.
Temperature Limits:
- Operating Temperature: -20°C to +70°C.
- Storage Temperature: -30°C to +80°C.

Handling & Compliance

The module is ROHS compliant.
Observe standard ESD precautions during handling and assembly.
The module contains fragile glass and a 15-pin FPC – handle with care.
