Operating Ratings Supply Voltage (VDD VSS)...+4.75V to 11V Ambient Temperature Range (TA)...-40 to +85 Functional Description The display driver can drive either 4- or 5-digit alphanumeric LED displays. One of its advantages is its minimal interface requirement with the display or data source. Data transfer is accomplished by sending clock and serial data signals, without any need of an external load signal. This method provides a non-multiplexed, direct drive to the LED display. The data transfer format uses a leading 1 followed by 35 data bits. These 35 data bits are latched after the 36 th has been transferred. In this way, data output (refers to the currently displayed characters) changes only if the serial data bits differ from those previously transferred. Display brightness is controlled by the output current for LED displays. A 1nF capacitor should be connected to brightness control pin to prevent oscillations. Figure 1 shows the block diagram of this driver. The output current is set via an external variable resistor, and is typically 27 times greater than the current in brightness control pin. Input data format, as in Figure 4, shows a leading 1 followed by 35 data bits. When the 36 th is transferred, a LOAD signal is generated synchronously with the clock high state, thus, the 35 bits of data are loaded into the latches. The low state of the clock is used to generate a RESET signal to clear all shift registers for the next set of data. To allow continuous operation, all shift registers are static master-slaves, with no clear for the master portion of the first register. LED Display Driver -6- Version:A.025
Note that a complete set of 36 clocks must be sent in order to clear the shift registers. When is powered ON, reset signal is generated internally to reset all registers and all latches. Then, the START bit and the first clock make it return to its normal operation. Figure 2 shows the pin-out of the package for. Figure 3 shows the pad-assignment of the bare chip for.the timing relationships between data, clock and DATA ENABLE is shown in Figure 4, with maximum clock frequency of 0.5 MHz assumed. When this driver is used for applications with lesser number of outputs, the current per output can be increased, or the part can be operated at higher than 1V (Vout). The following equation can be used for calculations. Tj = (Vout) (I LED ) (NO. of segments) (82 /W)+T A Where: Tj = junction temperature (150 max) Vout = the voltage at the LED driver outputs I LED = the LED current 82 /W = thermal resistance of the package T A = ambient temperature The above equation was used to plot Figure 6-8.
