Automotive 102 x 9 Chip-On-Glass LCD segment driver
A value of 0h corresponds to VLCD = 4 V and values equal or higher than 10Ch
correspond to VLCD = 12 V without temperature compensation. Every LSB change
corresponds to a VLCD programming step of 0.03 V. For further information, see
Equation 2 on page 33 and Section 8.10.3 on page 32.
8.3.3 Command: Set-bias-mode

8.4 Temperature compensation control commands
8.4.1 Command: Temperature-ctrl
The Temperature-ctrl command enables or disables the temperature measurement block
and the temperature compensation of VLCD (see Section 8.10.4 on page 38).
Table 17. Temperature-ctrl - temperature measurement control command bit description
For this command, the register selection bits have to be set RS[1:0] = 10.
