Note 5-1: This pin (CS#) is the chip select input connecting to the MCU. The chip is enabled for MCU
communication only when CS# is pulled LOW.
Note 5-2: This pin is (D/C#) Data/Command control pin connecting to the MCU in 4-wire SPI mode. When
the pin is pulled HIGH, the data at SDA will be interpreted as data. When the pin is pulled LOW,
the data at SDA will be interpreted as command.
Note 5-3: This pin (RES#) is reset signal input. The Reset is active low.
Note 5-4: This pin is Busy state output pin. When Busy is Low, the operation of chip should not be
interrupted, command should not be sent. The chip would put Busy pin Low when -Outputting
display waveform -Communicating with digital temperature sensor

After the Power OFF command, the driver will be powered OFF. Refer to the POWER
MANAGEMENT section for the sequence.
This command will turn off booster, controller, source driver, gate driver, VCOM, and temperature
sensor, but register data will be kept until VDD turned OFF or Deep Sleep Mode.
Source/Gate/Border/VCOM will be released to floating
