Set Internal Regulator Resis-
tor Ratio
The internal regulator gain (1+R2/R1)Vcon increases as
R2R1R0 is increased from 000b to 111b. The resistor
ratio (1+R2/R1) is given by:
R2R1R0 = 000: 2.3 (POR)
R2R1R0 = 001: 3.0
R2R1R0 = 010: 3.7
R2R1R0 = 011: 4.4
R2R1R0 = 100: 5.1
R2R1R0 = 101: 5.8
R2R1R0 = 110: 6.5
R2R1R0 = 111: 7.2

Set Display Start Line
The next command specifies the row address pointer
(0-63) of the RAM data to be displayed in COM0. This
command has no effect on COMS. The pointer is set to
0 after reset.

Set Display Offset
The next command specifies the mapping of first display
line (COM0) to one of ROW0~63. This command has no
effect on COMS. COM0 is mapped to ROW0 after reset.

Set Multiplex Ratio
The next command specifies the number of lines,
excluding COMS, to be displayed. With Icon is disabled
(POR), duties 1/16~1/64 or 1/80 could be selected. With
Icon enabled, the available duty ratios are 1/17~ 1/65 or
1/81.

Set N-line Inversion
The next command sets the n-line inversion register
from 3 to 33 lines to reduce display crosstalk. Register
values from 00001b to 11111b are mapped to 3 lines to
33 lines respectively. Value 00000b disables the N-line
inversion, which is the POR value.
To avoid a fix polarity at some lines, it should be noted
that the total number of mux (including the icon line)
should NOT be a multiple of the lines of inversion (n).
