MOS INTEGRATED CIRCUIT  
µPD6461, 6462  
CMOS LSI CHIP FOR CAMCORDER ON-SCREEN CHARACTER DISPLAY  
(12 ROWS × 24 COLUMNS)  
The µPD6461, 6462 are CMOS LSI chips designed to provide on-screen character display for camcorders. When  
combined with a microcontroller, the µPD6461, 6462 control the display of the characters displayed in the viewfinder (count,  
time, date, etc.) and the recording of characters onto video tape (time, date, etc.).  
Each character is created using 12 (width) × 18 (height) dots. Kanji characters and graphic symbols can also be displayed  
by using two or more characters. The µPD6461, 6462 are compatible with color viewfinders and can output character signals  
to three channels, the RGB channel for the color viewfinder and the VC1 and VC2 channels for the recording system and  
monitor terminal.  
The µPD6461, 6462 also have a power-on clear function and video RAM batch clear command, enabling the number  
of operations assigned to the microcontroller to be reduced.  
FEATURES  
• Maximum number of characters: 12 rows × 24 columns (288 characters)  
• Number of character patterns : 256 (µPD6461)/128 (µPD6462) (stored in ROM). Each pattern can be changed by  
specifying a mask code option.  
• Character size  
: One dot per line or one dot per two lines (field)  
• Number of character colors  
• Background  
: 8  
: No background, minimum background, or overall background can be selected for the  
entire screen, together with rimming ON/OFF function. Any one of 8 different colors  
is selectable as the background color and together with the rim color (black or white)  
selectable per screen.  
• Dot matrix  
• Blinking  
: Each character consists of 12 (width) × 18 (height) dots. There is no gap between  
adjacent characters.  
: Blinking can be turned on/off for each character. The blinking ratio is 1:1. The blinking  
frequency can be selected from approx. 1 Hz, 2 Hz, and 0.5 Hz for the entire screen.  
: Specified characters can be displayed in reverse video.  
• Reversed characters  
• Character signal output  
: Character signals can be output to three channels. Output mode (1) (RGB + BLK, VC1  
+ VBLK1, and VC2 + VBLK2) or output mode (2) (R + RBLK, B + BBLK, and G + GBLK) can  
be selected by specifying a mask option. For output mode 1, three output formats are  
available for the VC1 and VC2 channels (options A, B, and C).  
: Video RAM batch clear command and power-on clear function  
• Clearing of video RAM  
• Interface with a microcontroller : 8-bit serial input supporting variable word length (LSB first or MSB first can be selected  
by specifying a mask option.)  
• Supply voltage  
: Low-voltage operation possible (supply voltage range: 2.7 to 5.5 V)

External clock input  
(1) Data transfer  
Select the command transfer format.  
(2) Vertical display start position  
Select the units used for specifying the vertical display start position of the character display area. In three-line units,  
the vertical display start position can be set more finely than in nine-line units.  
(3) Pin selection  
Select the pins used to output character signals. In RGB+VC1+VC2 mode, character signals are output from the VR,  
VG, VB, VBLK, VC1, BLK1, VC2, and BLK2 pins. In RGB+3BLK mode, character signals are output from the VR, VG, VB,  
RBLK, GBLK, BBLK, VC1, and BLK1 pins.  
When displaying colored characters in a color viewfinder, select RGB+VC1+VC2 mode. When assigning a separate  
character signal for each color, select RGB+3BLK mode.  
(4) Output distribution format  
Select the format to be used to distribute character signals to the VC1 and VC2 channels when RGB+VC1+VC2 mode  
is selected. (When RGB+3BLK mode is selected, select option A as the output distribution format. Options B and C  
are invalid.)  
When an on-screen IC is used in a camcorder, some information is displayed in the viewfinder and recorded onto  
video tape (such as a date and title). Other information, however, need only be displayed in the viewfinder (battery  
or focus alarm and tape count). The µPD6461, 6462 can distribute such information to different output channels in  
units of rows or half rows. You can select option A, option B, and option C as the output distribution format (only when  
RGB+VC1+VC2 mode is selected).  
(5) Dot clock  
Select the dot clock to be used to display characters. When an external clock input is selected, refer to EXTERNAL  
CLOCK INPUT in 6. ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS.

1.2 HOW TO SELECT MASK OPTIONS  
To select mask options, use the option setting command (OC) of the Character Pattern Editor, a tool designed for editing  
character pattern data.  
Activate the Character Pattern Editor, then display the following setting menu:  
OC (COMMAND INPUT)  
OPTION DATA (0---LSB FAST , 1---MSB FAST  
OPTION DATA (0---V:9H , 1---V:3H  
) :  
) :  
......... (1)  
......... (2)  
......... (3)  
......... (4)  
......... (5)  
......... (6)  
......... (7)  
OPTION DATA (0---RGB+3BLK , 1---RGB+VC1+VC2 ) :  
OPTION DATA (0---OUTPUT 20, 1---OUTPUT 21 ) :  
OPTION DATA (0---OUTPUT 10, 1---OUTPUT 11 ) :  
OPTION DATA (0---EXT CLK , 1---LC  
OPTION DATA (0---LC , 1---EXT CLK  
) :  
) :  
Actually, the above menu is displayed one line at a time. Once you have selected an option, the next line is displayed.  
Select 0 or 1 for lines (1), (2), (3), (6), and (7), according to the setting to be made. For the dot clock, however, make  
the same settings (different values) for lines (6) and (7). For example, when selecting LC oscillation, select LCfor both  
lines (1 for (6) and 0 for (7)). Dont select external clock input for lines (6) and/or (7).  
When selecting the output distribution format, select the values on lines (4) and (5) as follows:  
(4)  
(5)  
Option A  
Option B  
Option C  
1(OUTPUT 21)  
0(OUTPUT 20)  
1(OUTPUT 21)  
0(OUTPUT 10)  
0(OUTPUT 10)  
1(OUTPUT 11)  
The settings are valid only when RGB+VC1+VC2 mode has been selected. Select option A (1, 0) when RGB+3BLK mode  
has been selected.  
The following table lists the correspondence between the command bits and the lines of the setting menu. Specify 0  
or 1 for each bit.

1.4.4 Display of VC2-Specified Characters  
When the displayed character control command specifies the VC2 channel for a character, that character is not output  
to the RGB or VC1 channel (display for the RGB and VC1 channels is usually the same as when display-off data is writtenNote).  
If background display (overall/minimum) is specified for the RGB or VC1 channel, no background is displayed for those  
characters for which the VC2 channel has been specified.  
Note In some cases, the display will differ slightly from the display-off data.

If a character adjacent to the display-off data is rimmed or has a  
background, the rim or background encroaches into the area for the display-  
off data by one dot (minimum size). (The rim encroaches only at the filled  
dots at the left or right edge of the rimmed character.)

If a character adjacent to a VC2-specified character is rimmed, the rim  
encroaches into the area for the VC2-specified character by one dot (mini-

background does not encroach into the VC2-specified character area.  
Display of VC2-specified character area for the VC2 channel  
If a rimmed VC2-specified character is adjacent to another VC2-specified  
character, the rim encroaches into the area for the latter VC2-specified  
character. The background does not encroach into the adjacent area (The  
rim encroaches only at the filled dots on the left or right edge of the rimmed  
character).

Remarks 1. The above figures are only examples. Actually, the background can be controlled independently for each  
output channel (only in RGB+VC1+VC2 mode), for example, by applying background (overall/minimum) for  
the RGB channel but not for the other channels.  
2. No background is applied to the VC2-specified areas for the RGB or VC1 channel. If a character adjacent  
to a VC2-specified character is rimmed, the rim encroaches into the area for the VC2-specified character  
by one dot (minimum size) only at the filled dots at the left or right edge of the area of the rimmed character,  
in the same way as for display-off data. The background, however, does not encroach into the adjacent  
area.

2.3 POWER-ON CLEAR FUNCTION  
The internal state of the IC is unstable immediately after the power is turned on. It is therefore necessary to keep the  
PCL pin low for the time shown below to allow the system to initialize. This power-on clear places the system in the following  
state:  
Test mode is not specified.  
All character data in video RAM (12 rows × 24 columns) is cleared (to display-off data (FEH: µPD6461/7EH: µPD6462)) and  
blinking is turned off.  
The video RAM write address is (row 0, column 0).  
The character size is single (minimum) for all rows.  
The output distribution format is set to the default (the VC1 and VC2 bits are set to 0).  
Display is turned off and LC oscillation is turned on.  
The time required for power-on clear is calculated as follows. No commands must be input during this time.  
Time required for power-on clear = tPCLLNote  
+ {Time required for clearing video RAM}  
= 10(µs) + {10(µs) + 12/fOSC(MHz) × 288}  
fOSC(MHz) : LC oscillation frequency or external clock frequency  
Note Refer to POWER-ON CLEAR SPECIFICATIONS in 6. ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS.  
A dot clock input (to the OSCIN pin) is necessary to clear video RAM. Input a dot clock when an external clock input is  
selected.

All character data in video RAM (12 rows × 24 columns) is cleared (to display-off data (FEH: µPD6461/7EH:  
µPD6462)) and blinking is turned off.  
The video RAM write address is (row 0, column 0).  
The character size is single (minimum) for all rows.  
The output distribution format is set to the default (the VC1 and VC2 bits are set to 0).  
Display is turned off and LC oscillation is turned on.  
The time required for clearing video RAM is calculated as follows. No command must be input while the video RAM is  
being cleared.  
Time required to clear video RAM = 10(µs) + 12/fOSC(MHz) × 288  
fOSC(MHz) : LC oscillation frequency or external clock frequency  
A dot clock input (to the OSCIN pin) is necessary to clear the video RAM. Input a dot clock when external clock input  
is selected.  
Remark Power-on clear using the PCL pin is hardware reset, initializing the IC, including clearing the video RAM and  
releasing test mode. The video RAM batch clear command, in contrast, performs software reset by initializing  
the IC without first releasing test mode.

Blinking control bits  
These bits are used to turn on or off the blinking of characters for which blinking has been enabled with the displayed  
character control command. The blinking ratio is 1:1, one of three blinking frequencies being selectable for the entire  
screen.  
LC oscillation control bit  
This bit is used to turn the oscillator on or off. You can stop the oscillator when no character is being displayed,  
thus reducing the power consumption.  
While the oscillator is stopped, it is not possible to write to video RAM. Turn on the oscillator before attempting  
to write to video RAM.  
Cautions 1. When using LC oscillation (LC oscillation control bit = 1): When character display is turned on, the  
oscillation is synchronized with Hsync, stopping when Hsync goes low. When character display  
is turned off, oscillation continues regardless of the state of Hsync.  
2. When using an external clock (LC oscillation control bit = 1): While the oscillator is turned on, clock  
pulses are supplied to the IC internal circuit. While the oscillator is turned off, no clock pulses are  
supplied.  
Character display on/off control bit  
This bit is used to turn character display on or off. Character display is turned on or off upon the detection of a  
falling edge of Hsync.

Control bits for the horizontal display start position  
These bits are used to specify the horizontal display start position (timing) as one of 32 steps in units of 12 dots  
(12/fOSC (MHz)). Settable positions are based on the rising edge of the horizontal synchronizing signal input to the  
Hsync pin. The 32 positions are calculated by adding 12 dots, one to 32 times, to the position equivalent to 16 clock  
pulses (16/fOSC (MHz)) from the rising edge (fOSC (MHz): LC oscillation frequency or external input clock frequency).  
Control bits for the vertical display start position  
These bits are used to specify the vertical display start position as one of 32 steps in units of three lines (or 32  
steps in units of nine lines when specified with a mask option). The minimum settable position is three lines from a  
rising edge of the vertical synchronizing signal input to the Vsync pin.

Rimming control bit  
This bit is used to specify whether all characters displayed on the screen are rimmed.  
Rimming: Whenever there is a dot at the right or left edge of the display area for a character, rimming of the dot will  
encroach into the adjacent character display area. For dots at the top or bottom edge, however, no rim is  
added either above the top edge or below the bottom edge, that is, rimming does not encroach into the  
character display area above or below. Other dots are rimmed as shown below.  
Example  
Character dots  
Rim  
The width of a rim is always 1t (minimum dot) regardless of the character size.  
Background control bits  
These bits are used to select no background, minimum background, or overall background as the background type.  
The background color is specified with the background/rim color control command.  
No background:  
Outputs only character data.  
Minimum background: Adds a background of an area that is wider than the character display area by a minimum  
of one dot at each side.  
Overall background: Adds a background over the entire screen.  
Background and rimming in RGB+VC1+VC2 mode  
Characters for which the VC2 channel is specified with the displayed character control command are not output to  
the RGB or VC1 channel. When background (minimum/overall) is specified for the RGB or VC1 channel, no background  
is added to the areas for the VC2-specified characters. By contrast for the VC2 channel, a background is added only  
to those areas for VC2-specified characters. (Refer to 1.4 DISPLAY IN RGB+VC1+VC2 MODE and 1.4.4 Display of  
VC2-Specified Characters for details of the display of VC2-specified character areas for the RGB or VC1 channel.)  
When RGB+3BLK (RGB compatible blanking) mode is selected, only the background control bits for the RGB  
channel are valid. Those for the VC1 and VC2 channels are invalid (In RGB+3BLK mode, no pin outputs a signal for  
the VC2 channel. The VC1 pin is used to output the logical OR of the R, G, and B outputs.).

3.12 DISPLAYED CHARACTER CONTROL COMMAND  
This command specifies the attributes of each character, including the character pattern, color, and whether it is blinked.  
When inputting this command, ensure that LC oscillator is turned on (if the LC oscillator is turned off, it is not possible to  
write to video RAM).  
This command is a 2-byte continuous command. When continuously writing characters with the same attributes (except  
for a pattern), you need input only the eight low-order bits (D0 to D7) of the command for the second and subsequent  
characters. In this case, the write column address is automatically incremented (After a character has been written into  
column 23, the next character is automatically written into left-most column 0 of the next row. When a character is written  
into column 23 of row 11, the next character is automatically written into column 0 of row 0.).

Character pattern specification bits  
These bits are used to specify the address of the character pattern to be used. Address FEH (µPD6461)/7EH  
(µPD6462) indicates display-off data and address FFH (µPD6461)/7FH (µPD6462) indicates the end code for second-  
byte continuous input. The design of each character pattern can be modified by specifying a mask code option (except  
for addresses FEH and FFH (µPD6461)/7EH and 7FH (µPD6462)).  
VC2 channel specification bit  
This bit is used to specify whether each character is output to the VC2 channel. Characters for which the VC2 channel  
is specified are not output to the RGB or VC1 channel (This bit is invalid in RGB+3BLK mode).  
Blinking control bit  
This bit is used to enable or disable blinking for each character. Blinking of characters is turned on/off for the entire  
screen with the character display control command (refer to 3.2 CHARACTER DISPLAY CONTROL COMMAND).  
Character color specification bits  
These bits are used to specify the color of each character (These bits are valid only for the RGB channel. Only  
a single color can be used for the VC1 and VC2 channels).  
Reversing control bit  
This bit is used to enable or disable reversing for each character. The characters of the entire screen are reversed  
with the character reverse on/off command (refer to 3.5 CHARACTER REVERSE ON/OFF COMMAND).

The 2-byte continuous command is used to write characters to video RAM. When continuously writing characters for  
which the specifications for the color, blinking, reversing, and VC2 channel are the same, transfer the first byte of the first  
command then continuously transfer only the second bytes (character pattern addresses) of the commands.  
When changing any part of the first byte, end continuous input (by setting the CS signal to high or transferring the end  
code for second-byte continuous input) then transfer the newly modified first byte.

4.4 CONTINUOUS INPUT OF COMMAND  
Transfer each of the 1-byte, 2-byte, and 2-byte successive commands from a microcontroller to the µPD6461, 6462  
as follows.  
To transfer a 1-byte or 2-byte command, or a 2-byte successive command with blinking data changed after a 2-  
byte successive command has been transferred, either make CS high once, or transfer 2-byte successive command  
end code (FFH: µPD6461/7FH: µPD6462) at the end of the 2-byte successive command. In the latter case, it is not  
necessary to make CS high.

5. CHARACTER PATTERNS  
The µPD6461, 6462 can display 256 (µPD6461)/128 (µPD6462) character patterns, including alphanumerics, Kanji  
characters, and symbols, which are stored in the character generator ROM. Each pattern in the character generator ROM  
can be modified by specifying a mask code option. However, the display-off data at character address FEH (µPD6461)/  
7EH (µPD6462) and end code for second-byte continuous input at FFH (µPD6461)/7FH (µPD6462) cannot be modified.  
No character pattern can be stored at these addresses.  
When none of the 12 × 18 dots are filled for a character pattern at addresses 00H to FDH (µPD6461)/00H to 7DH  
(µPD6462), the character pattern is called blank data. Character address FEH (µPD6461)/7EH (µPD6462) contains display-  
off data. Blank data and display-off data are represented in the same way (with no dots filled) in character patterns shown  
on the following pages, but they are different as follows:

You cannot specify display-off data for addresses other than FEH (µPD6461)/7EH (µPD6462) when using a mask code  
option. Blank data, however, can be specified at any address from 00H to FDH (µPD6461)/00H to 7DH (µPD6462) (address  
FFH (µPD6461)/7FH (µPD6462) cannot be used because it contains the end code for second-byte continuous input).  
The character patterns of the µPD6461GS-101/102, µPD6462GS-001 (NEC’s standard model) are shown on the  
following pages.

Caution Product quality may suffer if the absolute maximum rating is exceeded even momentarily for any  
parameter. That is the absolute maximum ratings are rated values at which the product is on the verge  
of suffering physical damage, and therefore the product must be used under conditions that ensure  
that the absolute maximum rating are not exceeded.

NOTES FOR CMOS DEVICES  
1
PRECAUTION AGAINST ESD FOR SEMICONDUCTORS  
Note:  
Strong electric field, when exposed to a MOS device, can cause destruction of the gate oxide and  
ultimately degrade the device operation. Steps must be taken to stop generation of static electricity  
as much as possible, and quickly dissipate it once, when it has occurred. Environmental control  
must be adequate. When it is dry, humidifier should be used. It is recommended to avoid using  
insulators that easily build static electricity. Semiconductor devices must be stored and transported  
in an anti-static container, static shielding bag or conductive material. All test and measurement  
tools including work bench and floor should be grounded. The operator should be grounded using  
wrist strap. Semiconductor devices must not be touched with bare hands. Similar precautions need  
to be taken for PW boards with semiconductor devices on it.  
2
HANDLING OF UNUSED INPUT PINS FOR CMOS  
Note:  
No connection for CMOS device inputs can be cause of malfunction. If no connection is provided  
to the input pins, it is possible that an internal input level may be generated due to noise, etc., hence  
causing malfunction. CMOS devices behave differently than Bipolar or NMOS devices. Input levels  
of CMOS devices must be fixed high or low by using a pull-up or pull-down circuitry. Each unused  
pin should be connected to VDD or GND with a resistor, if it is considered to have a possibility of  
being an output pin. All handling related to the unused pins must be judged device by device and  
related specifications governing the devices.  
3
STATUS BEFORE INITIALIZATION OF MOS DEVICES  
Note:  
Power-on does not necessarily define initial status of MOS device. Production process of MOS  
does not define the initial operation status of the device. Immediately after the power source is  
turned ON, the devices with reset function have not yet been initialized. Hence, power-on does  
not guarantee out-pin levels, I/O settings or contents of registers. Device is not initialized until the  
reset signal is received. Reset operation must be executed immediately after power-on for devices  
having reset function.

The information in this document is current as of March, 2001. The information is subject to change  
without notice. For actual design-in, refer to the latest publications of NEC's data sheets or data  
books, etc., for the most up-to-date specifications of NEC semiconductor products. Not all products  
and/or types are available in every country. Please check with an NEC sales representative for  
availability and additional information.  
No part of this document may be copied or reproduced in any form or by any means without prior  
written consent of NEC. NEC assumes no responsibility for any errors that may appear in this document.  
NEC does not assume any liability for infringement of patents, copyrights or other intellectual property rights of  
third parties by or arising from the use of NEC semiconductor products listed in this document or any other  
liability arising from the use of such products. No license, express, implied or otherwise, is granted under any  
patents, copyrights or other intellectual property rights of NEC or others.  
Descriptions of circuits, software and other related information in this document are provided for illustrative  
purposes in semiconductor product operation and application examples. The incorporation of these  
circuits, software and information in the design of customer's equipment shall be done under the full  
responsibility of customer. NEC assumes no responsibility for any losses incurred by customers or third  
parties arising from the use of these circuits, software and information.  
While NEC endeavours to enhance the quality, reliability and safety of NEC semiconductor products, customers  
agree and acknowledge that the possibility of defects thereof cannot be eliminated entirely. To minimize  
risks of damage to property or injury (including death) to persons arising from defects in NEC  
semiconductor products, customers must incorporate sufficient safety measures in their design, such as  
redundancy, fire-containment, and anti-failure features.  
NEC semiconductor products are classified into the following three quality grades:  
"Standard", "Special" and "Specific". The "Specific" quality grade applies only to semiconductor products  
developed based on a customer-designated "quality assurance program" for a specific application. The  
recommended applications of a semiconductor product depend on its quality grade, as indicated below.  
Customers must check the quality grade of each semiconductor product before using it in a particular  
application.  
"Standard": Computers, office equipment, communications equipment, test and measurement equipment, audio  
and visual equipment, home electronic appliances, machine tools, personal electronic equipment  
and industrial robots  
"Special": Transportation equipment (automobiles, trains, ships, etc.), traffic control systems, anti-disaster  
systems, anti-crime systems, safety equipment and medical equipment (not specifically designed  
for life support)  
"Specific": Aircraft, aerospace equipment, submersible repeaters, nuclear reactor control systems, life  
support systems and medical equipment for life support, etc.  
The quality grade of NEC semiconductor products is "Standard" unless otherwise expressly specified in NEC's  
data sheets or data books, etc. If customers wish to use NEC semiconductor products in applications not  
intended by NEC, they must contact an NEC sales representative in advance to determine NEC's willingness  
to support a given application.  
(Note)  
(1) "NEC" as used in this statement means NEC Corporation and also includes its majority-owned subsidiaries.  
(2) "NEC semiconductor products" means any semiconductor product developed or manufactured by or for  
NEC (as defined above).
