PIC18F87K90 FAMILY
There are two power modes designated as “Mode A”
and “Mode B”. Mode A is set by the bits, LRLAP<1:0>
and Mode B by LRLB<1:0>. The resistor ladder to use
for Modes A and B are selected by the bits,
LRLAP<1:0> and LRLBP<1:0>, respectively
Each ladder has a matching contrast control ladder,
tuned to the nominal resistance of the reference ladder.
This contrast control resistor can be controlled by
LCDREF<5:3> (LCDCST<2:0>). Disabling the internal
reference ladder results in all of the ladders being
disconnected, allowing external voltages to be
supplied.
To get additional current in High-Power mode, when
LCDRL<7:6> (LRLAP<1:0>) = 11, both the medium
and high-power resistor ladders are activated.
Whenever the LCD module is inactive (LCDA
(LCDPS<5>) = 0), the reference ladder will be turned
off.

Automatic Power Mode Switching
As an LCD segment is electrically only a capacitor, cur-
rent is drawn only during the interval when the voltage
is switching. To minimize total device current, the LCD
reference ladder can be operated in a different power
mode for the transition portion of the duration. This is
controlled by the LCDRL register.
Mode A Power mode is active for a programmable time,
beginning at the time when the LCD segment waveform
is transitioning. The LCDRL<2:1> (LRLAT<2:0>) bits
select how long, or if the Mode A is active. Mode B
Power mode is active for the remaining time before the
segments or commons change again.
As shown in

As shown in
, there are 32 counts in a single
segment time. Type-A can be chosen during the time
when the wave form is in transition. Type-B can be
used when the clock is stable or not in transition.
By using this feature of automatic power switching,
using Type-A/Type-B, the power consumption can be
optimized for a given contrast.
