27-, 28-, and 32-Output, 76V,
Serial-Interfaced VFD Tube Drivers
Each driver output is a slew-rate controlled CMOS
push-pull switch driving between V
(MAX6922) or V
MAX6934). The output rise time is always slower than
the output fall time to avoid shoot-through currents dur-
ing output transitions. The output slew rates are slow
enough to minimize EMI, yet are fast enough so as not
to impact the typical 100µs digit multiplex period and
affect the display intensity.
An internal reset circuit clears the internal registers on
power-up. All outputs and the interface output DOUT
(MAX6922/MAX6932/MAX6934 only) initialize low
regardless of the initial logic levels of the CLK, DIN,
BLANK, and LOAD inputs.
These driver ICs use a 4-wire serial interface with three
inputs (DIN, CLK, LOAD) and a data output (DOUT,
MAX6922/MAX6932/MAX6934 only). This interface is
used to write data to the ICs (Figure 4) (Table 1). The
serial interface data word length is 32 bits for the
MAX6922/MAX6934, 27 bits for the MAX6932, and 28
bits for the MAX6933.
The functions of the four serial interface pins are:
• CLK input is the interface clock, which shifts data
• LOAD input passes data from the shift register to the
• DIN is the interface data input, and must be stable

• DOUT is the interface data output, which shifts data
A fifth input, BLANK, can be taken high to force the out-
puts low, without altering the contents of the output latch-
es. When the BLANK input is low, the outputs follow the
state of the output latches. A common use of the BLANK
input is PWM intensity control.
The BLANK input’s function is independent of the oper-
ation of the serial interface. Data can be shifted into the
serial interface shift register and latched regardless of
the state of BLANK.
The MAX6922/MAX6932/MAX6933/MAX6934 are nor-
mally written using the following sequence:
1) Take CLK low.
2) Clock n bits of data in order D
3) Load the n output latches with a falling edge on LOAD,
LOAD may be high or low during a transmission. If
LOAD is high, then the data shifted into the shift regis-
ter at DIN appears at the OUT0 to OUT
CLK and DIN may be used to transmit data to other
peripherals. Activity on CLK always shifts data into the
shift register. However, the output latches only update
on the rising edge of LOAD, and the last n bits of data
out from the shift register on the rising edge of CLK.
Data at DIN is propagated through the shift register
and appears at DOUT (n CLK cycles + t
where n is the number of drivers in the IC.
DIN, observing the data setup and hold times.
where n is 27 for the MAX6932, 28 for the MAX6933,
and 32 for the MAX6922 and MAX6934.
