73S1217F Data Sheet
1.7.12 LED Driver
The 73S1217F provides a single dedicated output pin for driving an LED. The LED driver pin can be
configured as a current source that will pull to ground to drive an LED that is connected to VDD without
the need for an external current limiting resistor. This pin may be used as general purpose output with
the programmed pull-down current and a strong (CMOS) pull-up, if enabled. The analog block must be
enabled when this output is being used to drive the selected output current.
This pin may be used as an input with consideration of the programmed output current and level. The
register bit when read, indicates the state of the pin.
