To prevent latch-up or DC operation of the LCD module, the power on/off sequence must be followed as shown in the specification document.
Critical Notes:
- When the power supply V<sub>DD</sub> is 0V, keep the level of input signals on the low or keep high impedance.
- Do not keep the interface signal high impedance when power is on. Back Light must be turned on after power for logic and interface signal are valid.

11. ELECTRO-OPTICAL CHARACTERISTICS
11.1 Measurement Conditions
Measured in a dark room (ambient luminance 1 lux and temperature=25±2°C) with the equipment of Luminance meter system (Goniometer system and PR730). Test unit is located at an approximate distance 180cm from the LCD surface at a viewing angle of θ and Φ equal to 0°. We refer to:
- θ₀=0° (=θ₃) as the 3 o'clock direction (the "right")
- θ₀=90° (=θ₁₂) as the 12 o'clock direction ("upward")
- θ₀=180° (=θ₉) as the 9 o'clock direction ("left")
- θ₀=270° (=θ₆) as the 6 o'clock direction ("bottom")
While scanning θ and/or Ø, the center of the measuring spot on the Display surface stays fixed. The measurement is executed after 30 minutes warm-up period. V<sub>DD</sub> shall be 12.0V at 25°C. Optimum viewing angle direction is 6 o'clock.

| Reproduction of Color (White x) | W<sub>x</sub> | Θ=0° (Center) | TYP. -0.03 | 0.313 | TYP. +0.03 | - | Note 4 |
Notes:
- Viewing angle where contrast ratio > 10.
- Contrast measurements shall be made at viewing angle of θ=0° and at the center of the LCD surface. Luminance shall be measured with all pixels in the view field set first to white, then to the dark (black) state. Luminance Contrast Ratio (CR) is defined mathematically:
$$CR=\frac{\text{Luminance when displaying a white raster}}{\text{Luminance when displaying a black raster}}$$
