4.6.3 LCD
The 73S1217F does not contain an on-chip LCD controller. However, an LCD module (with built-in
controller) can be used with the 73S1217F via use of specific USR (GPIO) pins. The LCD API libraries
support up to a 2 line/16 character display.
shows the basic connection for this type of LCD. The
LCD module must connect to the USR pins as shown and it requires an external brightness adjust circuit.

4.6.4 USB Interface
The USB interface on the 73S1217F requires few external components for proper operation. Two serial
resistors of 24
Ω
± 1% are needed to provide proper impedance matching for the USB data signals D+
and D-.
For self-powered USB applications, a connection must be made between the VBUS power input and
USR7 for proper operation with the provided API libraries. A direct connection cannot be made as the
VBUS voltage exceeds the digital power supply running at 3.3 V. As a result, a resistor divider is required
to scale the VBUS voltage down to 3.3 V.
