The ALED1642GW is a monolithic, low voltage,low current power 16-bit shift register designed forLED panel displays. The ALED1642GWguarantees 20 V output driving capability allowingthe user to connect several LEDs in series. In theoutput stage, sixteen regulated current sourcesprovide from 3 mA to 40 mA constant current todrive the LEDs. The current is programmedthrough an external resistor and can be adjustedby a 7-bit current gain register in two subranges.

The brightness can be adjusted separately foreach channel through 12/16-bit grayscale control.Programmable turn-on and turn-off TIme (fourdifferent values available) improves the low noisegeneraTIon performance of the system.

Open/short error detecTIon mode is available inthe ALED1642GW. The auto power-shutdownand auto power-on features (selectable) allow thedevice to save power without externalintervenTIon.

Thermal management includes anovertemperature data alert and output thermalshutdown (170 °C). The high clock frequency isup to 30 MHz and it makes the device suitable forhigh data rate transmission. A selectable gradualoutput delay reduces the inrush current, whereasthe selectable SDO synchronization feature workswhen the device is used in daisy-chainconfiguration. The supply voltage range isbetween 3 V and 5.5 V.

基于ALED1642GW和STM8A汽車照明評估板STEVAL-ILL073V1

The STEVAL-ILL073V1 is a high brightness, RGB LED array driver system evaluation board with local dimming and diagnostics based on the ALED1642GW independent PWM LED driver controlled through an STM8A microcontroller SPI interface.A 16 RGB LED matrix is driven by three ALED1642GW LED drivers, one for each channel; i.e., Red, Green and Blue.

The on-board A7986A DC-DC converter, accepting standard adapter input voltages, provides the voltages and power for the overall operation of the board. The STEVAL-ILL073V1 includes a USB-UART daughterboard bridge for communication with a PC.

The evaluation board is also equipped with jumpers to simulate LED open circuit and LED short circuit faults, and a 4-pin SWIM connector to debug and to develop the STM8 microcontroller firmware.

The STEVAL-ILL073V1 has two modes of operation: in standalone mode, the evaluation board is controlled via on-board buttons and a potentiometer; in GUI mode, a Graphical User Interface is provided to represent the drivers. When connected to PC, the evaluation board enters GUI mode and the GUI has control of the board.
