Display Overview
The HCMS-29xx blue LED displays are driven by onboard CMOS ICs. The LEDs are configured as 5x7 font characters and are driven in groups of 4 characters per IC. Each IC consists of a 160-bit shift register (the Dot Register), two 7-bit Control Words, and refresh circuitry. The Dot Register contents are mapped on a one-toone basis to the display. Thus, an individual Dot Register bit uniquely controls a single LED. 8-character displays have two ICs that are cascaded. The Data Out line of the first IC is internally connected to the Data In line of the second IC forming a 320-bit Dot Register. The display's other control and power lines are connected directly to both ICs.
Reset
Reset initializes the Control Register (sets all Control Register bits to logic low) and places the display in the sleep mode. The Reset pin shoud be connected to the system power on reset circuit. The Dot Registers are not cleared upon power-on or by Reset. After poweron, the Dot Register contents are random; however, Reset will put the display in sleep mode, thereby blanking the LEDs. The Control Register and the Control Words are cleared to all zeros by Reset. To operate the display after being Reset, load the Dot Register with logic lows. Then load Control Word 0 with the desired brightness level and set the sleep mode bit to logic high.
6
Dot Register
The Dot Register holds the pattern to be displayed by the LEDs. Data is loaded into the Dot Register according to the procedure shown in Table 1 and Figure 3. First RS is brought low, then CE is brought low. Next, each successive rising CLK edge will shift in the data at the DIN pin. Loading a logic high will turn the corresponding LED on; a logic low turns the LED off. When all 160 bits have been loaded (or 320 bits in an 8-digit display), CE is brought to logic high. When CLK is next brought to logic low, new data is latched into the display dot drivers. Loading data into the Dot Register takes place while the previous data is displayed and eliminates the need to blank the display while loading data.

Pixel Map
PIXEL
In a 4-character display, the 160-bits are arranged as 20 columns by 8 rows. This array can be conceptualized as four 5x8 dot matrix character locations, but only 7 of the 8 rows have LEDs (see Figure 4 & 5). The bottom row (row 0) is not used. Thus, latch location 0 is never displayed. Column 0 controls the left-most column. Data from Dot Latch locations 0-7 determine whether or not pixels in Column 0 are turned-on or turned off. Therefore, the lower left pixel is turned-on when a logic high is stored in Dot Latch location 3. Characters are loaded in serially, with the left-most character being loaded first and the right-most character being loaded last. By loading one character at a time and latching the data before loading the next character, the figures will appear to scroll from right to left.

Control Register Data Loading
Data is loaded into the Control Register, MSB first, according to the procedure shown in Table 1 and Figure 3. First, RS is brought to logic high and then CE is brought to logic low. Next, each successive rising CLK edge will shift in the data on the DIN pin. Finally, when 8 bits have been loaded, the CE line is brought to logic high. When CLK goes to logic low, new data is copied into the selected control word. Loading data into the Control Register takes place while the previous control word configures the displays.
the display brightness by pulse width modulating the LED on time, while Bits D4 -D5 adjusts the display brightness by changing the peak pixel current. Bit D6 selects normal operation or sleep mode. Sleep mode (Control Word 0, bit D6 = Low) turns off the Internal Display Oscillator and the LED pixel drivers. This mode is used when the IC needs to be powered up, but does not need to be active. Current draw in sleep mode is nearly zero. Data in the Dot Register and Control Words are retained during sleep mode.
Control Word 1
Loading the Control Register with D7 = Logic High selects Control Word 1. This control Word performs two functions: serial/simultaneous data out mode and external oscillator prescale select (see Table 2).
Control Word 0
Loading the Control Register with D7- = Logic Low selects Control Word 0 (see Table 2). Bits D0-D3 adjust Table 2. Control Shift Register

Serial/Simultaneous Data Output D0
Bit D0 of control word 1 is used to switch the mode of D OUT between serial and simultaneous data entry during Control Register writes. The default mode (logic low) is the serial DOUT mode. In serial mode, DOUT is connected to the last bit D 7 of the Control Shift Register. Storing logic high to bit D 0 changes D OUT to simultaneous mode, which affects the Control Register only. In simultaneous mode, DOUT is logically connected to DIN. This arrangement allows multiple ICs to have their Control Registers written to simultaneously. For example, for n ICs in the serial mode, n * 8 clock pulses to load the same data in all Control Registers. The propagation delay from the first IC to the last is n * tDOUTP.
Cascaded ICs
Figure 6 shows how two ICs are connected within an HCMS-29XX display. The first IC controls the four leftmost characters and the second IC controls the four right-most characters. The Dot Registers are connected in series to form a 320-bit dot shift register. The location of pixel 0 has not changed. However, Dot Shift Register bit 0 of IC2 becomes bit 160 of the 320-bit dot shift register. The Control Registers of the two ICs are independent of each other. This means that to adjust the display brightness the same control word must be entered into both ICs, unless the Control Registers are set to simultaneous mode. Longer character string systems can be built by cascading multiple displays together. This is accomplished by creating a five line bus. This bus consists of CE, RS, BL, Reset, and CLK. The display pins are connected to the corresponding bus line. Thus, all CE pins are connected to the CE bus line. Similarly, bus lines for RS, BL, Reset, and CLK are created. Then DIN is connected to the right-most display. DOUT from this display is connected to the next display. The left-most display receives its DIN from the DOUT of the display to its right. DOUT from the left-most display is not used. Each display may be set to use its internal oscillator, or the displays may be synchronized by setting up one display as the master and the others as slaves. The slaves are set to receive their oscillator input from the master's oscillator output.
External Oscillator Prescaler Bit D1
Bit D1 of Control Word 1 is used to scale the frequency of an external Display Oscillator. When this bit is logic low, the external Display Oscillator directly sets the internal display clock rate. When this bit is a logic high, the external oscillator is divided by 8. This scaled frequency then sets the internal display clock rate. It takes 512 cycles of the display clock (or 8 x 512 = 4096 cycles of an external clock with the divide by 8 prescaler) to completely refresh the display once. Using the prescaler bit allows the designer to use a higher external oscillator frequency without extra circuitry. This bit has no affect on the internal Display Oscillator Frequency.

These bits must always be programmed to logic low.

The display IC has a maximum junction temperature of 150C. The IC junction temperature can be calculated with Equation 1 below. A typical value for RJA is 100C/W. This value is typical for a display mounted in a socket and covered with a plastic filter. The socket is soldered to a .062 in. thick PCB with .020 inch wide, one ounce copper traces. PD can be calculated as Equation 2 below. Figure 7 shows how to derate the power of one IC versus ambient temperature. Operation at high ambient temperatures may require the power per IC to be reduced. The power consumption can be reduced by changing either the N, I PIXEL, Osc cyc or V LED. Changing VLOGIC has very little impact on the power consumption.

Appendix B. Electrical Considerations
Current Calculations
The peak and average display current requirements have a significant impact on power supply selection. The maximum peak current is calculated with Equation 3 below. The average current required by the display can be calculated with Equation 4 below. The power supply has to be able to supply I PEAK transients and supply ILED (AVG) continuously. The range on VLED allows noise on this supply without significantly changing the display brightness.
Equation 1: T J MAX = T A + P Where: T J MAX TA RJA PD

Equation 4: I LED (AVG) = N * I PIXEL* 1/8 * (oscillator cycles)/64 (see Variable Definitions above)
12
VLOGIC and VLED Considerations
The display uses two independent electrical systems. One system is used to power the display's logic and the other to power the display's LEDs. These two systems keep the logic supply clean. Separate electrical systems allow the voltage applied to VLED and VLOGIC to be varied independently. Thus, VLED can vary from 0 to 5.5V without affecting either the Dot or the Control Registers. VLED can be varied between 4.0 to 5.5 V without any noticeable variation in light output. However, operating VLED below 4.5 V may cause objectionable mismatch between the pixels and is not recommended. Dimming the display by pulse width modulating VLED is also not recommended. VLOGIC can vary from 3.0 to 5.5 V without affecting either the displayed message or the display intensity. However, operation below 4.5 V will change the timing and logic levels and operation below 3 V may cause the Dot and Control Registers to be altered The logic ground is internally connected to the LED ground by a substrate diode. This diode becomes forward biased and conducts when the logic ground is 0.4 V greater than the LED ground. The LED ground and the logic ground should be connected to a common ground, which can withstand the current introduced by the switching LED drivers. When separate ground connections are used, the LED ground can vary from -0.3 V to +0.3 V with respect to the logic ground. Voltages below -0.3 V can cause all the dots to be ON. Voltage above +0.3 V can cause dimming and dot mismatch. Using a decoupling capacitor between the power supply and ground will help prevent any supply noise in the frequency range greater than that of the functioning display from interfering with the display's internal circuitry. The value of the capacitor depends on the series resistance from the ground back to the power supply and the range of frequencies that need to be suppressed. It is also advantageous to use the largest ground plane possible. in antistatic tubes or in conductive material. During assembly, a grounded conductive work area should be used and assembly personnel should wear conductive wrist straps. Lab coats made of synthetic material should be avoided since they are prone to static buildup. Input current latchup is caused when the CMOS inputs are subjected to either a voltage below ground (VIN < ground) or to a voltage higher than VLOGIC (VIN > VLOGIC) and when a high current is forced into the input. To prevent input current latchup and ESD damage, unused inputs should be connected to either ground or VLOGIC. Voltages should not be applied to the inputs until VLOGIC has been applied to the display.
Appendix C. Oscillator
The oscillator provides the internal refresh circuitry with a signal that is used to synchronize the columns and rows. This ensures that the right data is in the dot drivers for that row. This signal can be supplied from either an external source or the internal source. A display refresh rate of 100 Hz or faster ensures flickerfree operation. Thus for an external oscillator the frequency should be greater than or equal to 512 x 100 Hz = 51.2 kHz. Operation above 1 MHz without the prescaler or 8 MHz with the prescaler may cause noticeable pixel to pixel mismatch.
Appendix D. Refresh Circuitry
This display driver consists of 20 one-of-eight column decoders and 20 constant current sources, 1 one-ofeight row decoder and eight row sinks, a pulse width modulation control block, a peak current control block, and the circuit to refresh the LEDs. The refresh counters and oscillator are used to synchronize the columns and rows. The 160 bits are organized as 20 columns by 8 rows. The IC illuminates the display by sequentially turning ON each of the 8 row-drivers. To refresh the display once takes 512 oscillator cycles. Because there are eight row drivers, each row driver is selected for 64 (512/8) oscillator cycles. Four cycles are used to briefly blank the display before the following row is switched on. Thus, each row is ON for 60 oscillator cycles out of a possible 64. This corresponds to the maximum LED on time.
Electrostatic Discharge
The inputs to the ICs are protected against static discharge and input current latchup. However, for best results, standard CMOS handling precautions should be used. Before use, the HCMS-29XX should be stored
13
Appendix E. Display Brightness
Two ways have been shown to control the brightness of this LED display: setting the peak current and setting the duty factor. Both values are set in Control Word 0. To compute the resulting display brightness when both PWM and peak current control are used, simply multiply the two relative brightness factors. For example, if Control Register 0 holds the word 1001101, the peak current is 73% of full scale (BIT D5 = L, BIT D4 = L) and the PWM is set to 60% duty factor (BIT D3 = H, BIT D2 = H, BIT D1 = L, BIT D0 = H). The resulting brightness is 44% (.73 x .60 = .44) of full scale. The temperature of the display will also affect the LED brightness as shown in Figure 8. The temperature of the display will also affect the LED brightness as shown in Figure 8.
