GENERAL DESCRIPTION
FEDL9226-01
Issue Date: Dec. 11, 2002
32-Bit Duplex/Triplex VFD Controller/Driver with Digital Dimming, ADC and Keyscan
The ML9226 is a full CMOS controller/driver for Duplex or Triplex vacuum fluorescent display tube. It conststs
of 32-segment driver outputs and 3-grid pre-driver outputs, so that it can drive directly up to 96-segment VFD.
ML9226 features a digital dimming function, a 8-ch ADC, a 5
×
5 keyscan circuit and an encoder type switch
interface.
ML9226 provides an interface with a microcontroller only by four signal lines: DATA I/O, CLOCK, CS.
