SLDS011B - OCTOBER 1985 - REVISED MAY 1993
The TL5812 and TL5812I are monolithic BIDFET integrated circuits designed to drive a dot matrix or segmented vacuum fluorescent display (VFD). Each device features a serial data output to cascade additional devices for large display arrays.
A 20-bit data word is serially loaded into the shift register on the low-to-high transition of CLOCK. Parallel data is transferred to the output buffers through a 20-bit D-type latch while LATCH ENABLE is high and is latched when LATCH ENABLE is low. When BLANKING is high, all outputs are low.
The outputs are totem-pole structures formed by npn emitter-follower and double-diffused MOS (DMOS) transistors with output voltage ratings of 70 V and a source-current capability of 40 mA. All inputs are CMOS compatible.
The TL5812 is characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C. The TL5812I is characterized for operation from -40°C to 85°C.
