1/4 to 1/11 DUTY FIP(VFD)
CONTROLLER/DRIVER
DESCRIPTION
The SC16312 is a FIP (Fluorescent Indicator Panel, or Vacuum
Fluorescent Display) controller/driver that is driven on a 1/4 or 1/11
duty factor. It consists of 11 segment output lines, 6 grid output lines,
5 segment/grid output drive lines, a displaymemory, a control circuit,
and a key scan circuit. Serial data is input to the SC16312 through a
three-line serial interface. This FIP controller/driver is ideal as a
peripheral device for a single-chip microcomputer.
FEATURES
* Multiple display modes (11-segment & 11-dight
to 16-segment & 4-digit).
* Key scanning (6x4 matrix).
* Dimming circuit (eight steps).
* High-voltage output (V
* LED ports (4 chs., 20 mA max).
* General-purpose input port (4 bits)
PAD CONFIGURATION
– 35V max).

Maximum power consumption P
Where segment current = 3mA, grid current = 15mA, and LED current = 20mA,
FIP driver dissipation = number of segments x 6 + number of grids/(number of grids + 1) x 30(mW)
R
dissipation = (VDD-VEE)2/50 x (number of segments + 1)(mW)
L
LED driver dissipation = number of LEDs x 20(mW)
Dynamic power consumption = V
Example
Where V
= -25V, VDD= 5V, and in 16-segment and 6-digit modes,
EE
FIP driver dissipation = 16 x 6 +6/7 x 30 = 122
R
dissipation = 302/50 x 17 = 306
L
LED driver dissipation = 4 x 20 = 80
Dynamic power consumption = 5 x 5 = 25
= FIP driver dissipation + RLdissipation + LED driver dissipation + dynamic
MAX.
