IS31FL3738
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
I2C INTERFACE
The IS31FL3738 uses a serial bus, which conforms to
the I2C protocol, to control the chip’s functions with
two wires: SCL and SDA. The IS31FL3738 has a 7-bit
slave address (A7:A1), followed by the R/W bit, A0.
Set A0 to “0” for a write command and set A0 to “1” for
a read command. The value of bits A4:A1 are decided
by the connection of the ADDR pin. The complete
slave address is:
ADDR1
GND
GND
SCL
SCL
SDA
SDA
VCC
VCC
A7:A5
A4:A1
A0
0/1
The “STOP” signal ends the transfer. To signal
“STOP”, the SDA signal goes high while the SCL
signal is high.
0000
101
0101
1010
1111
ADDR connected to GND, (A4:A1)=0000;
ADDR connected to VCC, (A4:A1)=1111;
ADDR connected to SCL, (A4:A1)=0101;
ADDR connected to SDA, (A4:A1)=1010;
The SCL line is uni-directional. The SDA line is bidirectional (open-collector) with a pull-up resistor
(typically 1kΩ). The maximum clock frequency
specified by the I2C standard is 1MHz. In this
discussion, the master is the microcontroller and the
slave is the IS31FL3738.
The timing diagram for the I2C is shown in Figure 4.
The SDA is latched in on the stable high level of the
SCL. When there is no interface activity, the SDA line
should be held high.
The “START” signal is generated by lowering the SDA
signal while the SCL signal is high. The start signal will
alert all devices attached to the I2C bus to check the
incoming address against their own chip address.
The 8-bit chip address is sent next, most significant bit
first. Each address bit must be stable while the SCL
level is high.
After the last bit of the chip address is sent, the master
checks for the IS31FL3738’s acknowledge. The
master releases the SDA line high (through a pull-up
resistor). Then the master sends an SCL pulse. If the
IS31FL3738 has received the address correctly, then it
Integrated Silicon Solution, Inc. – www.issi.com
Rev. C, 01/11/2018
Following acknowledge of IS31FL3738, the register
address byte is sent, most significant bit first.
IS31FL3738 must generate another acknowledge
indicating that the register address has been received.
Then 8-bit of data byte are sent next, most significant
bit first. Each data bit should be valid while the SCL
level is stable high. After the data byte is sent, the
IS31FL3738 must generate another acknowledge to
indicate that the data was received.
Table 1 Slave Address:
ADDR2
holds the SDA line low during the SCL pulse. If the
SDA line is not low, then the master should send a
“STOP” signal (discussed later) and abort the transfer.
ADDRESS AUTO INCREMENT
To write multiple bytes of data into IS31FL3738, load
the address of the data register that the first data byte
is intended for. During the IS31FL3738 acknowledge
of receiving the data byte, the internal address pointer
will increment by one. The next data byte sent to
IS31FL3738 will be placed in the new address, and so
on. The auto increment of the address will continue as
long as data continues to be written to IS31FL3738
(Figure 7).
READING OPERATION
Register FEh, F1h and 18h~2Dh, 30h~45h of Page 0,
11h of Page 3 can be read.
To read the FEh and F1h, after I2C start condition, the
bus master must send the IS31FL3738 device
____
address with the R/W bit set to “0”, followed by the
register address (FEh or F1h) which determines which
register is accessed. Then restart I2C, the bus master
should send the IS31FL3738 device address with the
____
R/W bit set to “1”. Data from the register defined by
the command byte is then sent from the CHROMA-96
to the master (Figure 8).
To read the 18h~2Dh, 30h~45h of Page 0, 11h of
Page 3, the FDh should write with 00h before follow
the Figure 8 sequence to read the data, that means,
when you want to read 18h~2Dh, 30h~45h of Page 0,
11h of Page 3, the FDh should point to Page 0 or
Page 3 first and you can read the Page 0 and Page 3
data.

Note: FDh is locked when power up, need to unlock this register before write command to it. See Table 3 for detail.
The Command Register should be configured first after writing in the slave address to choose the available register. Then write data in the
choosing register. Power up default state is “0000 0000”.
For example, when write “0000 0001” in the Command Register (FDh), the data which writing after will be stored in the Auto breath mode
Register. Write new data can configure other registers.

Writing new data continuously to the registers can
modulate the brightness of the LEDs to achieve a
breathing effect.
After setting the IOUT and GCC, the brightness of each
LEDs (LED average current (ILED)) can be modulated
with 512 steps by PWM Register, as described in
Formula (1).

LED AVERAGE CURRENT (ILED)
As described in Formula (1), the LED average current
(ILED) is effected by 3 factors:
1. REXT, resistor which is connected R_EXT pin and
GND. REXT sets the current of all CSx (x=1~8) based
on Formula (3).
2. Global Current Control Register (PG3, 01h). This
register adjusts all CSx (x=1~8) output currents by 256
steps as shown in Formula (3).
Choosing more gamma steps provides for a more
continuous looking breathing effect. This is useful for
very long breathing cycles. The recommended
configuration is defined by the breath cycle T. When
T=1s, choose 32 gamma steps, when T=2s, choose
64 gamma steps. The user must decide the final
number of gamma steps not only by the LED itself,
but also based on the visual performance of the
finished product.
Table 22 64 Gamma Steps with 256 PWM Steps
3. PWM Registers (PG1, 00h~BFh), every LED has an
own PWM register. PWM Registers adjust individual
LED average current by 512 steps as shown in
Formula (1).

In order to perform a better visual LED breathing effect
we recommend using a gamma corrected PWM value
to set the LED intensity. This results in a reduced
number of steps for the LED intensity setting, but
causes the change in intensity to appear more linear to
the human eye.
Gamma correction, also known as gamma
compression or encoding, is used to encode linear
luminance to match the non-linear characteristics of
display. Since the IS31FL3738 can modulate the
brightness of the LEDs with 512 steps, a gamma
correction function can be applied when computing
each subsequent LED intensity setting such that the
changes in brightness matches the human eye's
brightness curve.

By setting the Auto Breath Mode Register bits of the
Page 2 (PG2, 00h~BFh) to “00”, or disable the B_EN
bit of Configure Register (PG3, 00h), the IS31FL3738
operates in PWM Mode. The brightness of each LED
can be modulated with 512 steps by PWM registers.
25
IS31FL3738
For example, if the data in PWM Register is “0000
0100”, then the PWM is the fourth step.
Writing new data continuously to the registers can
modulate the brightness of the LEDs to achieve a
breathing effect.
Auto Breath Mode
By setting the B_EN bit of the Configuration Register
(PG3, 00h) to “1”, breath function enables. When set
the B_EN bit to “0”, breath function disables.
By setting the Auto Breath Mode Register bits of the
Page 2 (PG2, 00h~BFh) to “01” (ABM-1), “10” (ABM-2)
or “11” (ABM-3), the IS31FL3738 operates in Auto
Breath Mode.
IS31FL3738 has three auto breath modes, Auto Breath
Mode 1, Auto Breath Mode 2 and Auto Breath Mode 3.
Each ABM has T1, T2, T3 and T4, as shown below:
OPEN/SHORT DETECT FUNCTION
IS31FL3738 has open and short detect bit for each
LED.
By setting the OSD bit of the Configuration Register
(PG3, 00h) from "0" to “1”, the LED Open Register
and LED Short Register will start to store the
open/short information and after at least 2 scanning
cycle (3.264ms) the MCU can get the open/short
information by reading the 18h~2fh/30h~47h, for
those dots are turned off via LED On/Off Registers
(PG0, 00h~17h), the open/short data will not get
refreshed when setting the OSD bit of the
Configuration Register (PG3, 00h) from "0" to “1”.
The Global Current Control Register (PG3, 01h) need
to set to 0x01 in order to get the right open/short data.
The detect action is one-off event and each time
before reading out the open/short information, the
OSD bit of the Configuration Register (PG3, 00h)
need to be set from "0" to “1” (clear before set
operation).
INTERRUPT CONTROL
Figure 17 Auto Breathing Function
T1/T3 is variable from 0.21s to 26.88s, T2/T4 is
variable from 0s to 26.88s, for each loop, the start
point can be T1~T4 and the stop point can be on state
(T2) and off state (T4), also the loop time can be set to
1~212 times or endless. Each LED can select ABM1~ABM-3 to work.
The setting of ABM-1~ABM-3 (PG2, 02h~0Dh) need to
write the 0Eh in PG3 to update before effective.
IS31FL3738 has an INTB pin, by setting the Interrupt
Mask Register (F0h), it can be the flag of LED open,
LED short or the finish flag of ABM-1, ABM-2, and
ABM-3.
For example, if the IO bit of the Interrupt Mask
Register (F0h) set to “1”, when LED open happens,
the INTB will pull be pulled low and the OB bit of
Interrupt Status Register (F1h) will store open status
at the same time.
The INTB pin will be pulled high after reading the
Interrupt Status Register (F1h) operation or it will be
pulled high automatically after it stays low for 8ms
(Typ.) if the IAC bit of Interrupt Mask Register (F0h) is
set to “1”. The bits of Interrupt Status Register (F1h)
will be reset to “0” after INTB pin pulled high.
SYNCHRONIZE FUNCTION
SYNC bits of the Configuration Register (PG3, 00h)
sets SYNC pin input or output synchronize clock
signal. It is used for more than one part working
synchronize. When SYNC bits are set to “01”, SYNC
pin output synchronize clock to synchronize other
parts as master. When SYNC bits are set to “10”,
SYNC pin input synchronize clock and work
synchronization with this input signal as slave. When
SYNC bits are set to “00/11”, SYNC pin is high
impedance, and synchronize function is disabled.
SYNC bit default state is “00” and SYNC pin is high
impedance when power up.

DE-GHOST FUNCTION
The ‘ghost’ term is used to describe the behavior of
an LED that should be OFF but instead glows dimly
when another LED is turned ON. A ghosting effect
typically can occur when multiplexing LEDs. In matrix
26
IS31FL3738
architecture any parasitic capacitance found in the
constant-current outputs or the PCB traces to the
LEDs may provide sufficient current to dimly light an
LED to create a ghosting effect.
To prevent this LED ghost effect, the IS31FL3738 has
integrated pull-up resistors for each SWy (y=1~6) and
pull-down resistors for each CSx (x=1~8). Select the
right SWy pull-up resistor (PG3, 0Fh) and CSx pulldown resistor (PG3, 10h) which eliminates the ghost
LED for a particular matrix layout configuration.
Typically, selecting the 32kΩ will be sufficient to
eliminate the LED ghost phenomenon.
The SWy pull-up resistors and CSx pull-down resistors
are active only when the CSx/SWy outputs are in the
OFF state and therefore no power is lost through these
resistors
SHUTDOWN MODE
Shutdown mode can be used as a means of reducing
power consumption. During shutdown mode all
registers retain their data.
Software Shutdown
By setting SSD bit of the Configuration Register (PG3,
00h) to “0”, the IS31FL3738 will operate in software
shutdown mode. When the IS31FL3738 is in software
shutdown, all current sources are switched off, so that
the matrix is blanked. All registers can be operated.
Typical current consume is 3μA.
Hardware Shutdown
The chip enters hardware shutdown when the SDB pin
is pulled low. All analog circuits are disabled during
hardware shutdown, typical the current consume is
3μA.
Integrated Silicon Solution, Inc. – www.issi.com
Rev. C, 01/11/2018
The chip releases hardware shutdown when the SDB
pin is pulled high. During hardware shutdown state
Function Register can be operated.
If VCC has risk drop below 1.75V but above 0.1V
during SDB pulled low, please re-initialize all Function
Registers before SDB pulled high.
LAYOUT
As described in external resistor (REXT), the chip
consumes lots of power. Please consider below
factors when layout the PCB.
1. The VCC (PVCC, AVCC, VIO) capacitors need to
close to the chip and the ground side should well
connected to the GND of the chip.
2. REXT should be close to the chip and the ground
side should well connect to the GND of the chip.
3. The thermal pad should connect to ground pins and
the PCB should have the thermal pad too, usually this
pad should have some via thru the PCB to other
side’s ground area to help radiate the heat. About the
thermal pad size, please refer to the land pattern of
each package.
4. The CSx pins maximum current is 84mA
(REXT=20kΩ), and the SWy pins maximum current is
672mA (REXT=20kΩ), the width of the trace, SWy
should have wider trace then CSx.
5. In the middle of SDA and SCL trace, a ground line
is recommended to avoid the effect between these
two lines.
