3.5 Design Notes from Documentation

  • B/L Driver: The backlight driving condition is IF=20mA, Vf=19.2V (TYP) for 6 LEDs in series. An external boost converter is required.
  • Mechanical: The LCM module has a total thickness of 3.07 mm (including the metal frame). The FPC with PI reinforcement has a total thickness of 0.30±0.03 mm. A silver paste dot (银浆点) is used for grounding. The Part Number label is LS035I14-MP-V1.
  • FPC Connection: The module includes a specified FPC bend area (yellow insulating tape area). The FPC has been extended by 12mm from the base model.
  • Steel Sheet Reinforcement: The back of the FPC has a steel sheet reinforcement (T=0.1mm) for grounding.
  • Connector: The module uses a 31-pin FPC connector with a 0.5mm pitch.
  • RoHS: All materials are compliant with RoHS standards.

4. Application Guidelines & Critical Notes

  • Power Supply: The module requires a 3.3V (LCM_VDD) power supply for the TFT and a 1.8V (LCM_IOVCC) supply for the logic interface. Ensure the power supply ripple is minimized.
  • Interface: This module uses a standard MIPI DSI (4-lane) protocol. The host processor must be configured for this protocol.
  • Backlight Driver (External): An external boost converter is required to supply the high-voltage backlight via the LEDA and LEDK pins. The required driving condition is 20mA total current at 19.2V forward voltage (Typ).
  • Reset: A hardware reset pin (LCM_RESET) is provided. The reset pulse duration must be at least 10 µs. It is necessary to wait 5ms after releasing RESX before sending commands. Also Sleep Out command cannot be sent for 120msec.
  • Operating Temp: The module operates from -20°C to +70°C. Below 0°C, the response time of the liquid crystal becomes slower.
  • Storage: Storage temperature range is -30°C to +80°C.
  • Handling Precautions: Handle the module with care to avoid damage to the glass or FPC. Ground yourself to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD). Avoid applying pressure to the display surface.
