General Description
The B14SCM04, B20SC04, B25SC04 and B38SC04 displays are 4 digit seven segment LED
displays combined with an 8 digit, multiplexed drive, integrated circuit with a cascadable serial
interface. Four digits are mounted with the driver on to the PCB which also has connections for
the BM multiplexed display family allowing expansion to 8 digits. The devices are available in
high efficiency red, green and yellow colour variants. Each of the standard displays has a right
hand decimal point in each digit. LED sizes include 14mm (0.56inch), 20mm (0.8inch) 25mm
(1inch) and 38mm (1.5inch) display areas.
The on board driver chip has a serial input format that features serial data, clock and chip enable.
A single 5 volt supply is required. The serial bus signals interface is HCMOS levels and the
format is compatible with SPI, QSPI and MICROWIRE. It features slew rate limiting for
reduced EMI. Included on chip is a BCD code B decoder and digit ram. An undedecoded mode
is also available. The chip can be programmed to display from 1 to 8 digits using the scan limit
register. Only one external resistor is required to set the maximum brightness that can then be
digitally dimmed in 16 levels. A test mode forces all LED鈥檚 on. Low power shutdown reduces
current to 150uA.
