Mitsubishi M35501FP Datasheet

MITSUBISHI IC’S
M35501FP
FLD (VFD) DIGIT EXPANDER

DESCRIPTION

The M35501FP generates digit signals for fluorescent display when connected to the output port of a microcomputer. There are up to 16 digit pins available, and more can be added by connect­ing additional M35501FPs. The number of fluorescent displays can be increased easily by connecting the M35501FP to the CMOS FLD (VFD; Vacuum Fluorescent Display) output pins of an 8-bit microcomputer in MITSUBISHI’s 38B5 Group. The M35501FP is suitable for fluorescent display control on household electric appliances, audio products, etc.

Function Apply 4.0–5.5 V to Vcc, and 0V to Vss. Reset internal shift register (built-in power-on reset
circuit). Digit output varies according to rising edge of clock
input. Use when specifying the number of digits.
Input “H” when using one M35501FP. Connect to OVFOUT pin of additional M35501FPs when using multiple M35501FPs (to use 17 digits or more).
Leave open when using one M35501FP. Connect to OVFIN pin of additional M35501FPs when using multiple M35501FPs (to use 17 digits or more).
Output the digit output waveform of fluorescent display. Leave open when not in use (VEE level output).
Apply voltage to DIG0–DIG15 pull-down resistors.

USAGE

Three usages of the M35501FP are described below.
(1) 16-Digit Mode: 16 digits selected
The number of digits is set to 16 by fixing the OVFIN pin to “H” and the SEL pin to “L.” Figure 5 shows the output waveform.
(2) Optional Digit Mode: 1-16 digits selectable
When the number of CLK pin rising edges during an “H” period of the SEL pin is n and the OVFIN pin is fixed to “H,” the number of digits set is n. If n is 16 or more, all 16 digits are set. Figure 6 shows the output waveform.

(3) Cascade Mode: 17 digits or more selectable
17 digits or more can be used by connecting two M35501FPs or more. Figure 7 shows an example using three M35501FPs, offering 33 to 48 digit outputs. Cascade mode will not operate if all M35501FPs are in 16-digit mode (SEL = “L”). Use the most significant M35501FP in the optional digit mode for DIG output. Figure 8 shows the output waveform.
