MAX6960AMH+D

Display Drivers Overview

The MAX6960AMH+D is an LED display driver manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated, designed for driving 8x8 matrix graphic displays. It features a 4-wire serial interface and supports up to 64 segments. The device operates on a supply voltage ranging from 2.7 V to 3.6 V with a maximum power supply current of 9 mA. High-level output current is specified at 48 mA, while low-level output current reaches 750 mA. Power dissipation is rated at 1.012 W. It functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C and is housed in an MQFP-44 surface-mount package.

Display Drivers Feature Summary

• Supports 4-wire serial interfacing for simplified control connections
• Capable of driving 8x8 matrix graphic LED displays with dedicated segment outputs
• Includes high-current sinking capability for direct LED drive without external transistors

Display Drivers Applications

• Graphic LED matrix displays
• Industrial control panel indicators
• Consumer electronics status displays

Display Drivers Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or manufacturer channels due to limited availability status. Confirm RoHS compliance details and moisture sensitivity level handling requirements prior to assembly. Check for obsolescence notices or lifecycle changes directly from Analog Devices documentation before finalizing procurement plans.

Display Drivers Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring direct drive for 8x8 LED matrices with serial communication constraints. Ensure the application voltage stays within the 2.7 V to 3.6 V range. Consider the MQFP-44 package thermal characteristics and the specific current requirements for both high and low side outputs against the load configuration.

Display Drivers Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX6960 series of LED display drivers from Maxim Integrated, now part of Analog Devices. It is specifically engineered for graphic matrix applications rather than standard alphanumeric segments. The series provides integrated solutions for reducing bill-of-materials count in display subsystems by combining driver logic and power stages in a single IC.

Display Drivers Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Verify if other variants within the MAX6960 family offer compatible pinouts or electrical specifications if direct replacement is required.
