接线的MAX6958/59向4位时钟显示-Wiring th
abstract: this application note provides details on how to connect the max6958 and max6959 led display drivers to led displays for clock applications. standard 1, 2, 3, and 4 digit displays, off-the-shelf clock displays are discussed. a suggested wiring scheme for a custom clock display is given.
this application note discusses general considerations for using the max6958 or max6959 for applications displaying time. the max6958 and max6959 are 4-digit, 9-segment led drivers which use a reduced pin count multiplexing scheme to drive 36 segments using only 10 drive pins (table 1). the pin connections from the max6958/59 to the led digits is not the standard connection, as table 1 shows. pins 4 to 7 share duty as both common cathode and anode drivers, depending on the multiplex cycle.

the max6958/59 can be used with all normal common cathode single-digit and dual-digit display types, but cannot be used with normal triple-digit or quad-digit displays (figure 1). unfortunately, standard clock 'stick' displays (which integrate colon and annunciator segments as well as the 4 time digits) can't be used either. the reason these displays can't be used is that the internal die-to-die wiring precludes the shared cathode/anode interconnection that the max6958/59 needs. examples of standard clock displays are shown in figures 2 to 4.

figure 2. 4-digit clock display.
figure 3. 4-digit clock display for either 24-hour time and 12-hour time.
figure 4. 4-digit clock display for 12-hour time only.
the max6958/59 can drive a display of segment complexity such as figure 5. this display uses 4 full digits, but without the decimal place (dp) segments. three annunciator segments provide the common alarm, am, pm functions on the left. the colon segment is made from two led dice connected in parallel and driven together as one led, per standard clock module practice. four more annunciators are shown on the right, and these could be dp segments for the 4 digits as desired. individual applications will vary from this of course, but this example shows the full led drive capability of the max6958/59. if the max6959's key-scan irq output is required, then the four annunciators seg 4 to seg 7 won't be available, as the segment drive and irq function share a common pin.

there are two choices for implementing the display design shown in figure 8, knowing that a standard display is not available. first, the display can be built from off the shelf leds, such as single or dual digit displays, and discrete leds. an example of this approach using dual-digit displays is shown in figure 6.

for high volume applications, ordering makes sense because at volume the cost of a custom display will be the same as a standard display anyway. the ideal internal wiring a custom display is shown in figure 7. as drawn, the display allows the hexadecimal fonts to work correctly for digit 0 to digit 3. to implement this layout on a custom led module, a 2-layer pcb will be necessary. led manufacturers can normally save cost by designing modules on a single layer boards instead of 2-layer. if lowest display cost is a priority, the best advice is to simply ensure that the table 1 interconnect is followed, and let the led manufacturer wire the leds in whatever pattern is necessary to make a single layer board. it then becomes a software issue to re-map the segment order.
