UCN5890LW, UCN5891A, and UCN5891LW are BiMOS II serial-input,
latched source (high-side) drivers. The octal, high-current smart-power ICs
merge an 8-bit CMOS shift register, associated CMOS latches, and CMOS
control logic (strobe and output enable) with sourcing power Darlington
outputs. Typical applications include multiplexed LED and incandescent
displays, relays, solenoids, and similar peripheral loads to a maximum of
-500 mA per output.
Except for output voltage ratings, these smart high-side driver ICs are
equivalent. The UCN5890A/LW are rated for operation with load supply
voltages of 20 V to 80 V and a minimum output sustaining voltage of 50 V.
The UCN5891A/LW are optimized for operation with supply voltages of 5 V
to 50 V (35 V sustaining).
Dwg. PP-026-2A
Note the suffix ‘A’ devices (DIP) and the suffix
‘LW’ devices (SOIC) are electrically identical and
share a common terminal number assignment.

BiMOS II devices have higher data-input rates than the original BiMOS
circuits. With a 5 V supply, they will operate to at least 3.3 MHz. At 12 V,
higher speeds are possible. The CMOS inputs are compatible with standard
CMOS and NMOS logic levels. TTL circuits may require the use of appropriate pull-up resistors to ensure a proper input-logic high. A CMOS serial data
output, allows cascading these devices in multiple drive-line applications
required by many dot matrix, alphanumeric, and bar graph displays.
Suffix ‘A’ devices are supplied in a standard dual in-line plastic package
with copper lead frame for enhanced package power dissipation characteristics. Suffix ‘LW’ devices are supplied in a standard wide-body SOIC package
for surface-mount applications. Similar driver, featuring reduced output
saturation voltage, are the UCN5895A and A5895SLW. Complementary,
8-bit serial-input, latched sink drivers are the Series UCN5820A.

■Low-Power CMOS Logic and Latches
Always order by complete part number, e.g., UCN5891LW .
Timing is representative of a 3.3 MHz clock. Higher speeds may be attainable
with increased supply voltage; operation at high temperatures will reduce the
specified maximum clock frequency.
Serial Data present at the input is transferred
to the shift register on the logic “0” to logic “1”
transition of the CLOCK input pulse. On
succeeding CLOCK pulses, the registers shift data
information towards the SERIAL DATA OUTPUT. The SERIAL DATA must appear at the
input prior to the rising edge of the CLOCK input
waveform.
Information present at any register is transferred to the respective latch when the STROBE
is high (serial-to-parallel conversion). The
latches will continue to accept new data as long as
the STROBE is held high. Applications where
the latches are bypassed (STROBE tied high) will
require that the OUTPUT ENABLE input be high
during serial data entry.
When the OUTPUT ENABLE input is high,
all of the output buffers are disabled (off) without
affecting the information stored in the latches or
shift register. With the OUTPUT ENABLE input
low, the outputs are controlled by the state of
their respective latches.
