The MAX6971 serial-interfaced LED driver provides 16

open-drain, constant-current-sinking LED driver outputs

rated at 36V. The MAX6971 operates from a 3V to 5.5V

supply. The MAX6971 supply and the LEDs’ supply or

supplies can power up in any order. The constant-cur-

rent outputs are programmed together to up to 55mA

using a single external resistor. The MAX6971 operates

with a 25Mb, industry-standard, 4-wire serial interface.

The MAX6971 uses the industry-standard, shift-register-

plus-latch-type serial interface. The driver accepts data

shifted into a 16-bit shift register using data input DIN

and clock input CLK. Input data appears at the DOUT

output 16 clock cycles later to allow cascading of multi-

ple MAX6971s. The latch-enable input, LE, loads the 16

bits of shift register data into a 16-bit output latch to set

which LEDs are on and which are off. The output-

enable, OE, gates all 16 outputs on and off, and is fast

enough to be used as a PWM input for LED intensity

control.

For applications requiring LED fault detection, refer to

the MAX6983*, which automatically detects open-circuit

LEDs.

For safety-related applications requiring a watchdog

timer, refer to the MAX6983, which includes a fail-safe

feature that blanks the display if the serial interface

becomes inactive for more than 1s.

The MAX6971 is one of a family of 12 shift-register-plus-

latch-type LED drivers. The family includes 8-port and

16-port types, with 5.5V- or 36V-rated LED outputs, with

and without open-circuit LED detection and watchdog.

All versions operate from a 3V to 5.5V supply, and are

specified over the -40°C to +125°C temperature range.
