Description
The STLED316S is a compact LED controller and driver that interface microprocessors to LED displays through a serial 3-wire interface. It drives LED connected in common anode configuration. The STLED316S drives up to 48 discrete LEDs in 8 segment/6 digit configuration while functioning from a supply voltage of 5.0V. Additionally it can be used to drive 8 discrete LEDs which form a part of LED digit. The individual LEDs are wired as segments of a digit and brightness of these individual LEDs can be controlled digitally. The maximum segment current for the display digits is set through a single external resistor. Individual digits may be addressed and updated without rewriting the entire display. Additionally it includes key scanning for an 8x2 key matrix which automatically scans a matrix of up to 16 switches. STLED316S supports numerictype displays and reduces the overall BOM costs through high integration. Also it provides ESD protection of greater than 4 kV HBM. The LED controller/driver is ideal as a peripheral device to interface the display with a singlechip microcomputer.

STLED316S functional description
The STLED316S is a common-anode LED driver controller which can be used to drive red, green or blue LEDs as the current is adjustable through the external resistor. In the common anode configuration, the segment outputs sink the current from the cathodes while the digit outputs source the current to the anodes. The configurable output current can be used to drive LEDs with different current ratings (red, green or blue). The brightness of the whole display can be controlled through the serial interface as described later. The outputs can be connected together in parallel to drive a single LED. In this case, two parallel current sources of equal value drive a single LED. The external resistor value can be set accordingly to determine the desired output current thus controlling the display brightness. Soft-star t limits the inrush current during power-up. The display is blanked (LEDs are turned off or in high-Z state) on power-up.
3.1
Low power mode of operation
Upon initial power up or when not configured or when not used, the STLED316S will be in low power mode of operation wherein the current consumption drops to less than 1mA. During this mode, the data configured is maintained as long as the supply voltage is still present (the contents of the internal RAM need the supply voltage to be present). Port configuration and output levels are restored when the STLED316S resumes normal operation. For minimum supply current in shutdown mode, logic inputs should be at GND or VCC.
3.2
Serial interface
The interface is used to write configuration and display data to the STLED316S. The serial interface comprises of a shift register into which DIN is clocked on the rising edge of the CLK when STB is low. When STB is low, falling transitions on CLK clock the data from the device to the microcontroller. The 8-bit data is decoded to determine and execute the command. STB indicates to the device the start of communication when it goes low. DIN/DOUT pin is bi-directional. The data will be validated during positive pulse of the clock in both write/read modes. If the STB signal goes high before completing the data byte write to the device, the preceding data bits are ignored and the previous configuration remains intact.
3.3
Initial power up
On initial power-up, all control registers are reset, the display is blanked and the STLED316S is in the low power mode. All the outputs are in high-impedance state at initial power-up. The DIN/DOUT is pulled high by an external pull-up resistor. The display driver has to be configured before the display can be used.

Display types
Table 3. Seven segment display with dot point and common-anode LED panel
3.5
Keyscan
The full keyscan is illustrated in the another section of the datasheet. One diode is required per key switch. The keyscan circuit detects any combination of keys being pressed.
3.6
Discrete LED outputs
The STLED316S can be used to drive up to 8 discrete LEDs. The single LED output acts like a digit driver output and can be wired-up with 8 segment outputs to drive up to 8 different discrete LEDs. Physical connections from the LED output as well as the segment outputs must be made to drive the discrete LEDs in the desired manner. The discrete LEDs may be needed to indicate the "Power", "Standby" status (for example). Also it is possible to separately control the brightness of each single LED.
3.7
Power on reset and soft-start
The device integrates an internal power-on-reset circuit which initializes the digital logic upon power up. The soft-start circuit limits the inrush current and high peak current during power-up. This is done by delaying the input circuit's response to the external applied voltage. During soft-start, the input resistance is higher which lowers the in-rush current when the supply voltage is applied.

STLED316S functional description
STLED316S
3.8
LED drivers
The constant current capability is up to 40 mA per output segment and is set for all the outputs using a single external resistor. When acting as digit drivers, the outputs source current to the display anodes. When acting as segment drivers, the LED outputs sink current from the display cathodes. The outputs are high impedance when not being used as digit or segment drivers. Each port configured as a LED digit driver behaves as a digitally-controlled constant current sink. The LED drivers are suitable for both discrete LEDs and common anode (CA) numeric LED digits. When fully configured as a LED driver, the STLED316S controls up to 8 LED segments in a single digit with 8-step logarithmic brightness control for the digits. A single resistor sets the maximum segment current for all the segments, with a maximum of 40mA per segment. The STLED316S drives any combination of discrete LEDs and CA digits for numeric displays. The recommended value of RSET is the minimum allowed value, since it sets the display driver to the maximum allowed segment current. RSET can be a higher value to set the segment current to a lower maximum value where desired. The user must also ensure that the maximum current specifications of the LEDs connected to the drivers are not exceeded. The brightness of the individual digits in the display panel can be controlled separately.
3.9
Interrupt
The device includes an active low level IRQ_N pin to the microprocessor. The STLED316S generates an interrupt when a key is pressed.
3.10
Operating the device with 3.3 V interface voltages
The device can detect the input voltage levels reference to 3.3 V from the main controller chip as long as the VIL and VIH specifications of the STLED316S are met. If the input voltage to STLED316S is greater than 2.9 V, the STLED316S will recognize the signal level as a valid high and if the input voltage is lower than 1.75 V, it will be recognized as a valid low level. For the output signals from the device like DOUT and IRQ_N, the signal level depends on the external supply to which the external pull up resistor is connected to. Thus this eliminates the use of any level shifter between the main controller and the STLED316S.

Power consumption estimation
Each port of the STLED316S can sink a maximum current of 40 mA into an LED with a 4.4 V forward voltage drop when operated from a supply voltage of 5.0 V. The minimum voltage drop across the internal LED drivers is thus 5.0 - 4.4 = 0.6 V. The STLED316S can sink 8 x 40 = 320 mA when all outputs are operating as LED segment drivers at full current. On a 5.0 V supply, a STLED316S dissipates (5.0 V - 4.4 V) x 320 mA = 192 mW when driving 8 of these 4.4 V forward voltage drop LEDs at full current. If the application requires high drive current, consider adding a series resistor to each LED to drop excessive drive voltage off-chip. If the forward voltage of the LED is lesser than 4.4 V (say 2.4 V), then the maximum power dissipation of STLED316S when all segments are turned on will be ( 5 - 2.4) V x 320 mA = 832 mW. To lower the power dissipation, consider adding a small series resistor in the supply. Another alternative is to increase the value of the RSET to lower the current of the LEDs from 40 mA to say 30 or 20 mA. The efficiency will be the power consumption in the LEDs divided by the input power consumed. Efficiency = Vdiode x Idiode / VCC x ICC As an example, consider LED with forward voltage of VF = 2.4V, Ipeak = 40 mA, VCC (max) = 5.5 V, N = number of segments = 8 (max), D = duty cycle = 15/16, Power dissipation, PD (max) = 5 mA x 5.5 V + (5.5 - 2.4) V x (15/16) x 40 mA x 8 = 27.5 + 780 = 807.5 mW. To lower this value, add a series resistor with the supply.

Key-scan & display cycle

Key-scan & display cycle
The display RAM stores the data transmitted from an external device to the STLED316S through the serial interface. Refer to Section 9: Key-scanning and display timing on page 25 for a pictorial representation. The grid and segment outputs are controlled by the display output module. The entire grid will be turned off on channel 1/16 and 16/16 meaning that the first channel and last channel are off. This is referred to as blanking time. During the keyscan time (first cycle from timing generator), the entire grid is turned off and only the segments are enabled one by one (seg0 to seg7). The segment on time is 64 s. During the LED discrete time (second cycle), the data present on the internal LED buffer is checked. If the data is present, then the brightness setting of each LED in the brightness control register is checked. Then each segment will be enabled or disabled based on the register value. In this duration, the grids 1 to 6 are turned off. The grid corresponding to LED digit is turned on. The LED on duty cycle is 14/16. If the LED/seg1 brightness is 12/16, it means that the segment1 OFF time is 12/16 and on time is 2/16. During 7-segment display time (3rd cycle to 8th cycle), the display status is checked whether it is ON or OFF. If display is ON, then the dimming settings are checked from the configuration register for the grid (it may be common dimming setting or individual dimming setting for each digit). The minimum turn on time is 1/16 and maximum turn on time is 14/16. The blanking time is valid before the turning on and turning off of the grid. The blanking interval is 32 s. This will continue until the maximum number of digits configured in the register. Once the full cycle is complete, the keyscan cycle will start again. If the display is not turned on, then the timing generation will immediately go to the key scan mode.
Initial: All the segments and grids are turned off. During operation:
1. 2. 3. Turn on segment (keyscan) one by one. On time duration is 64 s. Check the data present in LED register. If data is present, turn on the respective LED grid and segments. Check the display on. If display is turned on, then enable the grid one by one from grid 1 to grid 6 (maximum) and turn on segments.

Key matrix and key-input data storage ram
During the key scan cycle all the grids are turned off. The first segments turn on is 64 s. The key1 and key2 signals will be sampled after 60 s. The two signals latch into the internal key buffer. The same applies for other segments. This key buffer compares the data with the previous key status. If any changes are seen in the buffer values, then the IRQ_N is asserted. The IRQ_N signal is active low (level). This IRQ_N signal will be cleared at the end of reading the key buffer (end of byte transfer). The key buffer must be completely read before the IRQ_N is cleared.
The key matrix is of 8 x 2 configuration, as shown below:
Figure 4. Key matrix
The data of each key are stored as illustrated below, and are read by the appropriate read command, starting from the least significant bit.

Commands
Command sets the display mode and the status of the LED driver. The first byte input to the STLED316S through the DIN input after the STB goes low is regarded as a command. If STB is set high while commands/data are transmitted, serial communication is initialized, and the commands/data being transmitted are invalid (however, the commands/data already transmitted remain valid).

Description:
LSB 3 -1 address of the memory MSB5 and LSB4 address of memory bank (page) MSB 6 `0' auto increment address `1' fixed address MSB 7 `0' Write command `1' Read command MSB 8 `X' Unused
The following bytes are either configuration data or display data. During the write command, the control flag display on and auto increment address are latched into the internal control flag register. The default value is `0' for display on control register implying that the display is off. The user must turn on the display to view the display memory. Similarly the auto increment address mode is enabled by default. If the user desires to read from a particular address location, the user can fix the address pointer.
Display on:
MSB 8 x MS B 7 0 MSB6 X MS B 5 0 LSB4 1 LSB3 1 LSB2 0 LSB1 1
Display off:
MSB 8 x MS B 7 0 MSB6 X MS B 5 0 LSB4 1 LSB3 1 LSB2 1 LSB1 0
Use these two commands to turn the display `ON' and `OFF'.

Set flag for key1 and key2 to ensure that the user reads from the particular key. When reading the key data from the memory, the IRQ_N will be automatically cleared signifying that the end of the 8th bit was transmitted correctly. If the IRQ_N is asserted by the last eight keys, then the user reads the key data (one byte only by reading the first byte). In this case, the IRQ_N will remain active until the second byte is read. When the user uses the read key to read the LED and key data, first the user must choose the address (default address location is 0x00) after which the address will increment only by 3 addresses (maximum).

Display memory
The display memory stores the display data and sends to the LED when the display is on. The address pointer, memory page and write signal indicates to this block the location to write the data. This block will manage the address pointer. When the user writes a first byte, the address increments by one if in auto-increment mode, else the address pointer remains in the same location. The initial address is latched during the write/read command into the address pointer. The display memory (7-segment/LED) is directly mapped into the display segments. The user can access only one bank at a time in both the read and write modes. The memory block is split into 4 pages. Table 16. Memory page address

Key-scanning and display timing
During the first cycle, the 16 channels are used for the keyscan. The keyscan duration is made up of 64 s. The second cycle is used for the display of the LED (discrete). The maximum time is 512s and the 3rd-8th cycles are used for the 7-segment display. The number of cycles will increase or decrease depending upon the user configuration. By default, the configuration is made up of 4 cycles. If any data is written to the discrete LED, only then the 2nd cycle is valid. Otherwise the 7-segment moves from 2nd-7th cycle. This is a continuous operation. During the normal operation, the user cannot control or stop the timing generation. One cycle of key scanning consists of one frame, and data of 8 x 2 matrices are stored in the RAM.

Serial communication format (reception)
The figure below shows the "reception" by STLED316S for command/data write sequence. The STB must be low for 1 s before the first and last clock rise. The minimum time the STB must remain low is 9 s. The maximum clock frequency is 1 MHz with a duty cycle of 50%. Data set-up and hold time must be 100 ns. Figure 5. Serial communication format (reception)

Because the DIN/DOUT pin in a bi-directional pin, it is recommended to connect an external pull-up resistor to this pin (1 K to 10 K). Note: No minimum wait time is needed to read the data from the device. The STLED316S will output the data about 250 ns after the 8th clock pulse's falling edge. It is therefore suggested that the host must release the bus within 100ns after clocking the last bit on the 8th clock pulse. The STLED316S is able to clock out the valid data on the immediate falling edge of the CLK without missing any clock cycle.
