9 Typical Application

Selecting RSET Resistor Value and Using External Drivers

Brightness of the display segments is controlled via RSET. The current that flows between VDD and ISET defines the

current that flows through the LEDs.

Segment current is about 200 times the current in ISET. Typical values for RSET for different segment currents, operat-

ing voltages, and LED voltage drop (VLED) are given in Table 21 & Table 22. The maximum current the AS1116 can

drive is 47mA. If higher currents are needed, external drivers must be used, in which case it is no longer necessary

that the devices drive high currents.

Note:

The display brightness can also be logically controlled (see Intensity Control Register (0x0A) on page 12).

Calculating Power Dissipation

The upper limit for power dissipation (PD) for the AS1116 is determined from the following equation:

PD = (VDD x 5mA) + (VDD - VLED)(DUTY x ISEG x N)

(EQ 1)

Where:

VDD

is the supply voltage.

DUTY

is the duty cycle set by intensity register (page 13).

is the number of segments driven (worst case is 8)

VLED

is the LED forward voltage

ISEG

= segment current set by RSET

Dissipation Example:

ISEG = 40mA, N = 8, DUTY = 15/16, VLED = 2.2V at 40mA, VDD = 5V

(EQ 2)

PD = 5V(5mA) + (5V - 2.2V)(15/16 x 40mA x 8) = 0.865W

(EQ 3)

Thus, for a QSOP-24 package

ΘJA = +88°C/W, the maximum allowed TAMB is given by:

TJ,MAX = TAMB + PD x

ΘJA = 150°C = TAMB + 0.865W x 88°C/W

(EQ 4)

In this example the maximum ambient temperature must stay below 73.88°C.
