General Description
The MAX6972/MAX6973 precision current-sinking,
16-output PWM LED drivers drive red, green, and/or blue
LEDs for full-color graphic message boards and video
displays. Each output has an individual 12-bit (MAX6972)
or 14-bit (MAX6973) PWM-intensity (hue) control and
7-bit (MAX6972) or 5-bit (MAX6973) global PWM intensity
(luminance) control. The MAX6972/MAX6973 also fea-
ture open-circuit LED fault-detection circuitry, as well as
a watchdog timer.
The driver has two banks of eight outputs, with each bank
intended to drive a different color in RGB applications.
The standard application uses three MAX6972/
MAX6973s to drive eight RGB LEDs. The full-scale current
for each bank of eight outputs is adjustable from 11mA
to 55mA in 256 steps (0.3125% per step) to calibrate
each color.
The MAX6972/MAX6973 can optionally multiplex by
using outputs
MUX0
and
MUX1,
which each drive an
external pnp transistor. Multiplexing doubles the
MAX6972/MAX6973 drive capability to 32 LEDs.
The MAX6972/MAX6973 operate from a 3.0V to 3.6V
power supply. The LED power supply can range from
3V to 7V. The LED drivers require only 0.8V headroom
above the LEDs’ forward-voltage drop. Using a sepa-
rate LED supply voltage for each LED minimizes power
consumption.
The serial interface uses differential signaling for the
high-speed clock and data signals to reduce EMI and
improve signal integrity. The MAX6972/MAX6973 buffer
all interface signals to simplify cascading devices in
modules that use a large number of drivers.
An internal watchdog timer, when enabled, automatically
clears the pixel-data registers and blanks the display if
any of the signal inputs fail to toggle within 40ms.
The MAX6972/MAX6973 are available in 32-pin TQFN
packages and operate over the -40°C to +125°C
temperature range.
Refer to the MAX6974/MAX6975 data sheet for a
24-output, 6mA to 30mA software-compatible device.
