DM163
8x3-CHANNEL CONSTANT CURRENT LED DRIVERS
General Description
The DM163 is a LED driver that comprises shift registers, data latches, 8x3-channel
constant current circuitry with current value set by 3 external resistors, and 64 x 256 gray
level PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) function unit.
Each channel provides a maximum
current of 60 mA. The grayscale data are separated into BANK0 and BANK1 respectively,
selected by SELBK pin. BANK0 is 6-bits grayscale data and the BNAK1 is 8-bits grayscale
data. Depending on the system requirement, both PWM banks could be utilized jointly to
achieve maximum 8+6 bit grayscale performance. Alternatively, users can choose either
64-graylevel bank or 256-graylevel bank for dot correction, and the remaining bank as
image data.
DM163 could also be constructed as a PWM controller for LED drivers. When VDDH
is connected to VDD, each of the 24 output channels outputs can act as an inverse digital
signal for controlling the LED driver.
