S1D15K01j is an EPSON hybrid LCD drive IC suitable for motorcycle hybrid digital instrument panels. With the increasing number of features and functions that motorcycles possess, the amount of information that needs to be displayed on the dashboard display is increasing. On the other hand, the available space for display is limited, requiring effective display of information. In the past, motorcycles were usually equipped with passive displays, which were relatively inexpensive in terms of system and development costs. However, in order to efficiently display more information, the usage rate of integrated hybrid LCD displays would be increased to some extent. This type of display is mainly used for segmented display of speedometers and warning lights, as well as dot matrix display for simple navigation.

However, traditional hybrid LCD displays either use two types of driver ICs (one for segmented LCD and the other for lattice LCD), or use some driver pins of the IC to drive the lattice LCD, thereby driving the segmented LCD display. This can lead to several issues, including display issues, contrast differences between segment and dot matrix regions, multiple lines in the input interface, and higher module costs.

At this point, a hybrid LCD driver IC that can simultaneously drive segmented displays and dot matrix displays is needed. S1D15K01 is a hybrid LCD driver IC, designed for hybrid digital instrument panel LCDs. S1D15K01 can be directly connected to microcontrollers and transmit image data transmitted from microcontrollers to the hybrid display. In addition, S1D15K01 helps to solve display problems, achieve high contrast, and reduce block costs, as the independent circuits for segmented and lattice displays are integrated on a single chip. S1D15K01 meets the strict quality requirements of automotive products, complies with AEC-Q100 standards, and can operate at temperatures up to 105 '℃.
