Abstract 

The OM13500 is an LCD demo board which can be used to demonstrate 

and evaluate the PCA9620 segment driver. The OM13500A is the same 

board, but instead of PCA9620, PCA8537 is mounted. The latter has a 

reduced number of segment outputs and therefore is not able to drive all 

display elements of the display on the board. The only affected part is the 

dot matrix area on the display. 
The board is controlled by an LPCXpresso micro controller board, which 

contains the LPC1115, a Cortex M0 controller. A free IDE can be 

downloaded in order to modify the software. 
Supply of the board can be via two AA batteries, an AC adapter or USB.
