• High drive capability with 400 mA low-level output current
• Integrated digit and segment scanning logic

Display Drivers Applications

• Numeric LED display systems
• Seven-segment indicator panels
• Consumer electronic instrumentation displays

Display Drivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix EEE against official Analog Devices documentation to confirm the exact package type and temperature grade. Ensure the target application environment remains within the specified -40°C to +85°C operational limits. Confirm that the power supply voltage stays strictly between 2.7V and 5.5V to prevent device damage. Check for RoHS compliance status through the manufacturer's official channels before finalizing procurement.

Display Drivers Selection Notes

Select this component when a serial interface is preferred over parallel connections to reduce pin count. Consider the 400 mA low-level output current if driving common-anode configurations directly. Evaluate the 16-pin QSOP footprint against available PCB space constraints. Compare against other MAX695x family members if different digit counts or interface protocols are required.

Display Drivers Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX695x series of LED display drivers designed for numeric and alphanumeric applications. It provides a cost-effective solution for driving multiple digits with minimal microcontroller overhead. The series typically includes variants with different segment counts and interface options to suit various display complexity levels.
