The MAX6957 LED driver/GPIO peripheral provides up
to 28 I/O ports, P4 to P31, controlled through an SPI-
compatible serial interface. The ports can be config-
ured to any combination of constant-current LED
drivers, logic inputs and logic outputs, and default to
logic inputs on power-up. When fully configured as an
LED driver, the MAX6957 controls up to 28 LED seg-
ments with individual 16-step adjustment of the con-
stant current through each LED segment. A single
resistor sets the maximum segment current for all seg-
ments, with a maximum of 24mA per segment. The
MAX6957 drives any combination of discrete LEDs and
CA digits, including seven-segment and starburst
alphanumeric types.
Figure 1 is the MAX6957 functional diagram. Any I/O
port can be configured as a push-pull output (sinking
10mA, sourcing 4.5mA), or a Schmitt-trigger logic
input. Each input has an individually selectable internal
pullup resistor. Additionally, transition detection allows
seven ports (P24 through P30) to be monitored in any
maskable combination for changes in their logic status.

A detected transition is flagged through an interrupt pin

The Typical Operating Circuit shows two MAX6957s
working together controlling three monocolor 16-seg-
ment-plus-DP displays, with five ports left available for
GPIO (P27–P31 of U2).
The port configuration registers set the 28 ports, P4 to
P31, individually as either LED drivers or GPIO. A pair
of bits in registers 0x09 through 0x0F sets each port’s
configuration
The 36-pin MAX6957AAX has 28 ports, P4 to P31. The
28-pin MAX6957ANI and MAX6957AAI make only 20
ports available. The eight unused ports should be con-
figured as outputs on power-up by writing 0x55 to reg-
isters 0x09 and 0x0A. If this is not done, the eight
unused ports remain as floating inputs and quiescent
supply current rises, although there is no damage to
the part.
