IC LED Driver Linear 75.5mA 28-QFN/MLP 5x5
Description
The A6278 and A6279 devices are specifically designed for LED display applications. Each of these BiCMOS devices includes a CMOS shift register, accompanying data latches, and NPN constant-current sink drivers. The A6278 contains 8 sink drivers, while there are 16 in the A6279.
The CMOS shift register and latches allow direct interfacing with microprocessor-based systems. With a 3.3 or 5 V logic supply, typical serial data-input rates can reach up to 25 MHz. The LED drive current is determined by the user’s selection of a single resistor. A CMOS serial data output permits cascading between multiple devices in applications requiring additional drive lines. Open LED connections can be detected and signaled back to the host microprocessor through the SERIAL DATA OUT pin.
