8.8 Start-up and shut-down
8.8.1 Power-On Reset (POR)
At power-on, the PCA8538 resets to the following starting conditions:
1. All backplane and segment outputs are set to VSS1.
2. Selected drive mode is: 1:9 with 1⁄4 bias.
3. Input and output bank selectors are reset.
4. The interface is initialized.
5. The data pointer is cleared (set logic 0).
6. The internal oscillator is disabled.
7. Temperature measurement is disabled.
8. Temperature filter is disabled.
9. The internal VLCD voltage generation is disabled. The charge pump is switched off.
10. The VLCD temperature compensation is disabled.
11. The display is disabled.
The reset state is as shown in Table 29.
