PT6961

PT6961 LED Driver IC DESCRIPTION PT6961 is an LED Controller driven on a 1/7 to 1/8 duty factor. 11 segment output lines, 6 grid output lines, 1 segment/grid output lines, one display memory, control circuit, key scan circuit are all incorporated into a single chip to build a highly reliable peripheral device for a single chip microcomputer. Serial data is fed to PT6961 via a four-line serial interface. Housed in a 32-pin SOP, PT6961 pin assignments and application circuit are optimized for easy PCB Layout and cost saving advantages. FEATURES • CMOS technology • Low power consumption • Multiple display modes (12 segments, 6 grids to 11 segments, 7 grids) • Key scanning (10 x 3 Matrix) • 8-Step dimming circuitry • Serial interface for Clock, Data Input, Data Output, Strobe Pins • Available in 32-pin, SOP APPLICATIONS • Micro-computer Peripheral Device • VCR set • Combo set BLOCK DIAGRAM Tel: 886-66296288‧Fax: 886-29174598‧ http://www.princeton.com.tw‧2F, 233-1, Baociao Road, Sindian, Taipei 23145, Taiwan PT6961 APPLICATION CIRCUIT Notes: 1. The capacitor (0.1µF) connected between the GND and the VDD pins must be located as close as possible to the PT6961 chip. 2. It is strongly suggested that the NC pin (pins 13) be connected to the GND. 3. The PT6961 power supply is separate from the application system power supply.

Data Input Pin This pin inputs serial data at the rising edge of the shift clock (starting from the lower bit) Clock Input Pin This pin reads serial data at the rising edge and outputs data at the falling edge. Serial Interface Strobe Pin The data input after the STB has fallen is processed as a command. When this pin is “HIGH", CLK is ignored. Key Data Input Pins The data sent to these pins are latched at the end of the display cycle.

INPUT PINS: CLK, STB & DIN OUTPUT PINS: K1 TO K3 OUTPUT PINS: DOUT, GR1 TO GR4 OUTPUT PINS: SG1 TO SG11 OUTPUT PINS: GR5, GR6 AND SG12/GR7 V1.7 5 March 2011 PT6961 FUNCTION DESCRIPTION COMMANDS A command is the first byte (b0 to b7) inputted to PT6961 via the DIN Pin after STB Pin has changed from HIGH to LOW State. If for some reason the STB Pin is set to HIGH while data or commands are being transmitted, the serial communication is initialized, and the data/commands being transmitted are considered invalid. COMMANDS 1: DISPLAY MODE SETTING COMMANDS PT6961 provides 2 display mode settings as shown in the diagram below: As stated earlier a command is the first one byte (b0 to b7) transmitted to PT6961 via the DIN Pin when STB is LOW. However, for these commands, the bit 3 & bit 8 (b2 to b7) are given a value of 0. The Display Mode Setting Commands determine the number of segments and grids to be used (12 to 11 segments, 6 to 7 grids). A display command ON must be executed in order to resume display. If the same mode setting is selected, no command execution is take place, therefore, nothing happens. When Power is turned ON, the 7-grid, 11-segment modes is selected. MSB 0 0 0 0 0 0 b1 LSB b0 Display Mode Settings: 10: 6 digits, 12 segments 11: 7 digits, 11 segments COMMANDS 2: DATA SETTING COMMANDS The Data Setting Commands executes the Data Write or Data Read Modes for PT6961. The data Setting Command, the bits 5 and 6 (b4, b5) are given the value of 0, bit 7 (b6) is given the value of 1 while bit 8 (b7) is given the value of 0. Please refer to the diagram below. When power is turned ON, bit 4 to bit 1 (b3 to b0) are given the value of 0. MSB 0 1 0 0 b3 b2 b1 LSB b0 Data Write & Read Mode Settings: 00: Write Data to Display Mode 10: Read Key Data Address Increment Mode Settings (Display Mode): 0: Increment Address after Data has been Written 1: Fixed Address Mode Settings: 0: Normal Operation Mode 1: Test Mode V1.7 6 March 2011 PT6961 PT6961 KEY MATRIX & KEY INPUT DATA STORAGE RAM PT6961 Key Matrix consists of 10 x 3 array as shown below: Each data entered by each key is stored as follows and read by a READ Command, starting from the last significant bit. When the most significant bit of the data (b7) has been read, the least significant bit of the next data (b0) is read. K1…………………K3 SG1/KS1 SG3/KS3 SG5/KS5 SG7/KS7 SG9/KS9 b0………………….b2 K1…………………….K3 SG2/KS2 SG4/KS4 SG6/KS6 SG8/KS8 SG10/KS10 b3…………………….b5 x x x x x b6………………….b7 Reading Sequence Note: b6 and b7 do not care. COMMANDS 3: ADDRESS SETTING COMMANDS Address Setting Commands are used to set the address of the display memory. The address is considered valid if it has a value of 00H to 0DH. If the address is set to 0EH or higher, the data is ignored until a valid address is set. When power is turned ON, the address is set at 00H. Please refer to the diagram below. MSB 1 1 0 0 b3 b2 b1 LSB b0 Address: 00H to 0DH DISPLAY MODE AND RAM ADDRESS Data transmitted from an external device to PT6961 via the serial interface are stored in the Display RAM and are assigned addresses.

It also used to set the pulse width. Please refer to the diagram below. When the power is turned ON, a 1/16 pulse width is selected and the displayed is turned OFF (the key scanning is started).

The DOUT Pin is an N-channel, open-drain output pin; therefore, it is highly recommended that an external pull-up resistor (1 KΩ to 10 KΩ) must be connected to DOUT. RECEPTION (DATA/COMMAND WRITE) TRANSMISSION (DATA READ) where: twait (waiting time) ≥ 1µs It must be noted that when the data is read, the waiting time (twait) between the rising of the eighth clock that has set the command and the falling of the first clock that has read the data is greater or equal to 1µs.
