General Description
The MAX6969 serial-interfaced LED driver provides 16
open-drain, constant-current-sinking LED driver outputs
rated at 5.5V. The MAX6969 operates from a 3V to 5.5V
supply. The MAX6969 supply and the LEDs’ supply or
supplies can power up in any order. The constant-cur-
rent outputs are programmed together to up to 55mA
using a single external resistor. The MAX6969 operates
with a 25Mb, industry-standard, 4-wire serial interface.
The MAX6969 uses the industry-standard, shift-register-
plus-latch-type serial interface. The driver accepts data
shifted into a 16-bit shift register using data input DIN
and clock input CLK. Input data appears at the DOUT
output 16 clock cycles later to allow cascading of multi-
ple MAX6969s. The latch-enable input, LE, loads the 16
bits of shift register data into a 16-bit output latch to set
which LEDs are on and which are off. The output-
enable, OE, gates all 16 outputs on and off, and is fast
enough to be used as a PWM input for LED intensity
control.
For applications requiring LED fault detection, refer to
the MAX6984*, which automatically detects open-circuit
LEDs.
For safety-related applications requiring a watchdog
timer, refer to the MAX6979, which includes a fail-safe
feature that blanks the display if the serial interface
becomes inactive for more than 1s.
The MAX6969 is one of a family of 12 shift-register-plus-
latch-type LED drivers. The family includes 8-port and
16-port types, with 5.5V- or 36V-rated LED outputs, with
and without open-circuit LED detection and watchdog.
All versions operate from a 3V to 5.5V supply, and are
specified over the -40°C to +125°C temperature range.

Detailed Description
The MAX6969 LED driver comprises a 4-wire serial
interface driving 16 constant-current-sinking, open-
drain output ports. The outputs drive LEDs in either
static or multiplex applications (Figure 1). The constant-
current outputs are guaranteed for current accuracy
not only with chip-supply voltage variations (5V ±10%
and 3V to 5.5V), but also over a realistic range of driver
output voltage drop (0.5V to 2.5V). The drivers use cur-
rent-sensing feedback circuitry (not simple current mir-
rors) to ensure very small current variations over the full
allowed range of output voltage (see the Typical
Operating Characteristics).
The 4-wire serial interface comprises a 16-bit shift reg-
ister and a 16-bit transparent latch. The shift register is
written through a clock input, CLK, and a data input,
DIN, and the data propagates to a data output, DOUT.
The data output allows multiple drivers to be cascaded
and operated together. The contents of the 16-bit shift
register are loaded into the transparent latch through a
latch-enable input, LE. The latch is transparent to the
shift register outputs when high, and latches the current
state on the falling edge of LE.
Each driver output is an open-drain, constant-current
sink that should be connected to the cathode of either
a single LED or a series string of multiple LEDs. The
LED anode can be connected to a supply voltage of up
to 5.5V, independent of the MAX6969 supply, V+. The
constant-current capability is up to 55mA per output,
set for all eight outputs by an external resistor, RSET.
Initial Power-Up and Operation
An internal reset circuit clears the internal registers of
the MAX6969 on power-up. All outputs (OUT0–OUT15)
initialize to high impedance, regardless of the initial
logic levels of the CLK, DIN, OE, and LE inputs.
4-Wire Serial Interface
The serial interface on the MAX6969 is a 4-wire serial
interface using four inputs (DIN, CLK, LE, OE) and a
data output (DOUT). This interface is used to write dis-
play data to the MAX6969. The serial-interface data
word length is 16 bits, D0–D15. See Figure 2.
The functions of the five interface pins are as follows.
DIN is the serial-data input, and must be stable when it
is sampled on the rising edge of CLK. Data is shifted in,
MSB first. This means that data bit D15 is clocked in
first, followed by 15 more data bits finishing with the
LSB, D0.

CLK is the serial-clock input, which shifts data at DIN
into the MAX6969 16-bit shift register on its rising edge.
LE is the latch load input of the MAX6969 that transfers
data from the MAX6969 16-bit shift register to its 16-bit
latch when LE is high (transparent latch), and latches
the data on the falling edge of LE (Figure 2).
The fourth input provides output-enable control of the
output drivers. OE is high to force outputs
OUT0–OUT15 high impedance, without altering the
contents of the output latches, and low to enable out-
puts OUT0–OUT15 to follow the state of the output
latches.
OE is independent of the operation of the serial inter-
face. Data can be shifted into the serial-interface shift
register and latched, regardless of the state of OE.
DOUT is the serial-data output, which shifts data out
from the MAX6969’s 16-bit shift register on the rising
edge of CLK. Data at DIN is propagated through the
shift register and appears at DOUT 16 clock cycles later.

Applications Information
Selecting External Component RSET to Set
LED Output Current
The MAX6969 uses an external resistor, RSET, to set the
LED current for outputs OUT0–OUT15. The minimum
allowed value of RSET is 327.3, which sets the output
currents to 55mA. The maximum allowed value of RSET
is 1.5k. The reference value, 360, sets the output
currents to 50mA. To set a different output current, use
the formula:
RSET = 18,000 / IOUT
where IOUT is the desired output current in mA.
Computing Power Dissipation
The upper limit for power dissipation (PD) for the
MAX6969 is determined by the following equation:
PD= (V+ x I+) + (VOUT x DUTY x IOUT x N)
where:
V+ = supply voltage
I+ = operating supply current when sinking IOUT LED
drive current into N outputs
DUTY = PWM duty cycle applied to OE
N = number of MAX6969 outputs driving LEDs at the
same time (maximum is 16)
VOUT = MAX6969 port output voltage when driving load
LED(s)
IOUT = LED drive current programmed by RSET
PD= power dissipation, in mW if currents are in mA
Dissipation example:
IOUT = 47mA, N = 16, DUTY = 1, VOUT = 2V, V+ =
5.25V
PD= (5.25V x 50mA) + (2V x 1 x 47mA x 16) = 1.767W
Thus, for a 24-pin TSSOP package (TJA = 1 / 0.0122 =
+82°C/W from the Absolute Maximum Ratings), the
maximum allowed ambient temperature TAis given by:
TJ(MAX) = TA+ (PDx TJA) = +150°C =
TA+ (1.767 x 82°C/W)
so TA= +145.6°C.
Overtemperature Cutoff
The MAX6969 contains an internal temperature sensor
that turns off all outputs when the die temperature
exceeds approximately +165°C. The outputs are
enabled again when the die temperature drops below
approximately +140°C. Register contents are not
affected, so when a driver is overdissipating, the exter-
nal symptom is the load LEDs cycling between on and
off as the driver repeatedly overheats and cools, alter-
nately turning the LEDs off and then back on again.
Power-Supply Considerations
The MAX6969 operates with a chip supply V+, and one
or more LED supplies. Bypass each supply to GND
with a 0.1µF capacitor as close to the MAX6969 as pos-
sible. This is normally adequate for static LED driving.
For multiplex or PWM applications, it is necessary to
add an additional bulk electrolytic capacitor of 4.7µF or
more to each supply for every 4 to 16 MAX6969s. The
necessary capacitance depends on the LED load cur-
rent, PWM switching frequency, and serial-interface
speed. Inadequate V+ decoupling can cause timing
problems, and very noisy LED supplies can affect LED
current regulation.
