The A6281 controls LED brightness with a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) scheme that gives the application the capability of displaying a billion colors in an RGB cluster.
The maximum current is set by an external resistor.
The LED brightness is controlled by performing PWM control on the outputs.
The brightness data of the PWM signal for each LED is stored in three 10-bit registers.
The peak value for each LED can be adjusted (dot-corrected) to compensate for mismatch, aging, and temperature effects.
All the internal latched registers are loaded by a 32-bit shift register.
One address bit controls whether dot correction/clock divider ratio or brightness data is loaded into the registers.
The remaining bits are used for the data.
The A6281 is designed to minimize the number of components needed to drive LEDs with large pixel spacing.
A large number of A6281s can be daisy chained together and controlled by just four control signals (clock, serial data, latch, and output enable).
Each of these inputs is buffered to drive the next chip in the chain.
Also, VIN can be tied to the LED voltage supply Package: 16-terminal QFN (suffix ES) 3 mm x 3 mm footprint Continued on the next page… Application Diagram Power Supply Bus VLED VLED Clock Data Latch Output Enable Microprocessor Cat5 UTP ...
