Power consumption	Normal	Lower
Explanation	The driving waveforms (LUTs, lookup tables) have been pre-programmed in the driver IC. Developers just need to send image data and update command to complete the screen refresh. If developers need special support to change the waveforms, extra LUTs can be sent externally.	Following our driving guide, developers can fully control the driving flow and stage from the MCU. Developers need to send converted image data at each specific stage.
