General Description
The RTL8231 is a serial data interface LED display controller that transmits:
•
Serial data to parallel LED (Shift Register Mode)
•
SMI data to Scan LED (SMI Mode)
•
SMI data to GPIO (SMI Mode)
Shift Register Mode
In Shift Register Mode, the RTL8231 supports 36 LEDs. The RTL8231 receives serial data and serial

L
clock, and via the shift register changes it to parallel output. The SO (Serial Out) pin outputs any serial
data input that exceeds 36 bits for cascading to another RTL8231. The Reset pin clears the shift register
data and the strapping pin sets the initial values when the RTL8231 is reset.
SMI Mode
In SMI Mode, the RTL8231 supports MDC/MDIO and SMI Slave bus data format. In SMI Slave mode,
8-bit and 16-bit data accesses are both supported. The MDC/MDIO or SMI Slave interface can set the
address from 0 to 31 (MDC/MDIO) or from 0 to 7 (SMI Slave). The RTL8231 controls SCAN LED and
GPIOs via LED and GPIO status registers.
The RTL8231 scanning single color LED supports maximal 24-port per port 3 single color LED
application or 24-port per port 2 single LED for fast Ethernet and 8-port per port one bi-color, and one
single color LED for Giga Ethernet application. The RTL8231 scanning bi-color LED supports maximal
24-port per port one single color and one bi-color LED application.
The RTL8231 provides 37 GPIOs. Any unused Single color or Bi-color LED pins can be switched to
C
become a GPIO pin.

The strapping “Dis_SMI” of the RTL8231 can set the chip at the GPIO mode or shift register mode. The
RTL8231 is GPIO mode when the strapping “Dis_SMI” pull low and pull high at shift register mode.
When the RTL8231 is the GPIO mode the control interface is the SMI interface, and the serial data
interface at the shift register mode.

Note:Because of the RL6129 clock is independence from whole system clock,MDC/MDIO circuit need
the first two clock cycle to help RTL8231 start the MDC/MDIO circuit at the MDC/MDIO mode.
That’s mean the first command could be fail when the first command transmit with the first MDC
clock cycle.

combinations. For example, when the port 0,2,4,5,11 need to light up bi-color Green while the other port
needs light bi-color Yellow. Then the first and second time slot, when we let SCAN_LED for High, in a
time slot for port 0,2,4,5 of SCEN_STA for Low light port 0,2,4,5 of the bi-color Green. Let the second
time slot when port11's SCEN_STA for Low light port11 of the bi-color Green. The third and the fourth

8.5. GPIO Mode
C
In SMI mode, each of RTL8231 I/O pin could become the GPIO pin. The RTL8231 has the 37 GPIO pins
which are set by register. The register 0x0002~0x0004 could select all I/O pins operate at the SCAN_LED
mode or GPIO mode. The register 0x0004~0x0006 could select all of the GPIO are GPI or GPO.
8.5.1.
Setting GPIO Pin Descriptions
In the SMI mode, the RTL8231 is allowed to choose each Pin whether or not to set GPIO or SCAN LED
pin besides of the VCC / GND, Clock input, and the SMI Data input pin.
To Setting GPIO will be used by the Register as in the following shows:

Choose RTL8231 the use of Pin for SCAN LED or GPIO.
SEL_GPIO Register, when the Register value is 1'b0 indicates that the Pin for Scan LED. When the
Register value is 1'b1, it said that the Pin for the GPIO Pin.
IO_GPIO
When the Pin is set as a GPIO, the pin was input or output.
IO_GPIO Register, when the Register value is 1'b0, which the mapping SEL_GPIO value is 1'b1, said the
GPIO pin as Output. When the Register value is 1'b1, which the mapping SEL_GPIO value is 1'b1, said the
GPIO pin for the Input.

INV_GPIO
When the Pin is set to GPO (output), it was decided Output data whether or not to inverse.
INV_GPIO Register, when the INV_GPIO Register value is 1'b1 which mapping the Pin was selected GPO,
the Output data written to the data with the SMI contrast. The GPI (Input) is not affected by INV_GPIO.
When INV_GPIO Register value is 1'b0, then the same.
Buzzer_on
Only setting at Pin 15 GPIO [35]. The pin 15 is a general GPIO when Buzzer_on (0x0001 bit[3]) is set to
1'b0. When the Buzzer_on setting 1'b1, GPIO [35] was forced the output pin (ignore IO_GPIO [35] of the
setting).At this moment, pin 15 will be sent to the frequency single for Buzzer. The frequency could set by
the Buzzer_Freq [2:0] (0x0001 bits[2:0]) to decide.

En_Debouncing
When the Pin is set as a GPI state, the input signal required to continuously maintain the same status 100ms
in order to be latch. Input data will be written in DATA_GPIO. Only part of the Pin can support
En_Debouncing function. When the En_Debouncing is Enable, the corresponding Pin will be forced into
GPI (input). At this moment, the corresponding register SEL_GPIO [X], and IO_GPIO [x] will be forced to
write to 1'b1.
