The AS1115 from ams AG is an 8 x 8 LED Display driver IC that is ideal for a seven-segment or dot matrix user interface displays of set-top boxes, VCRs, DVD-players, washing machines, microwave ovens, refrigerators, and other white goods or personal electronic applications. It requires an input voltage of 2.7 - 5.5 V. This LED driver consists of an integrated BCD code-B/HEX decoder, multiplex scan circuitry, software reset function, external clock, segment and display drivers, and 64-bit memory. It stores the LED settings in the internal memory, thereby eliminating the need for continuous device reprogramming. This LED driver uses only one external resistor (RSET) to control and set the amount of current flowing through the LED display along with special analog and digital techniques to adjust the LED. It can be programmed to use the internal code-B/HEX decoder to display numeric digits or to directly address each segment. This LED driver is available in a surface-mount package that measures 8.66 x 6.0 mm.
