Product Description
MBI5034 is an enhanced 16-channel constant current LED sink driver with smart error detection and output current
gain. MBI5034 succeeds MBI5026 and also exploits
PrecisionDrive™
technology to enhance the output
characteristics. Furthermore, MBI5034 adopts
Share-I-O™
technology to be backward compatible with MBI5026,
MBI5036 and MBI5039 in pin definition and has the functionality for compulsory LED open-circuit detection and
current gain control in LED display systems.
MBI5034 contains a 16-bit shift register and a 16-bit output latch, which convert serial input data into parallel output
format. At MBI5034 output stages, sixteen regulated current ports are designed to provide uniform and constant
current sinks with small skew between ports for driving LEDs within a wide range of forward voltage (V
F
) variations.
Users may adjust the output current from 3mA to 45mA with an external resistor R
ext
, which provides users
flexibility in controlling the light intensity of LEDs. MBI5034 guarantees to endure maximum 17V at the output ports.
Besides, the high clock frequency, up to 30MHz, also satisfies the system requirements of high volume data
transmission.
With the open-circuit detection, MBI5034 can detect individual LED open-circuit error without extra components.
Once the dedicated command is issued, all of the output ports will be turned on with small current. Since the
turn-on duration and current are so small, the flicker will not be sensed by human eyes and the image quality will
not be impacted. All of the channels are detected no matter the input data is zero or one.

MBI5034
16-Channel Constant Current LED Sink Driver with
Compulsory Open-circuit Detection and Current Gain
In addition, MBI5034 also allows users to adjust the output current level by setting a programmable configuration
code. The code is sent into MBI5034 via the pin SDI. The falling edge of LE would latch the code in the shift
register into a built-in 16-bit configuration register, instead of the output latch. The gain code would affect the
voltage at the terminal R-EXT and control the output current regulator. The output current can be adjusted finely by
a gain ranging from 12.5% to 200% in 64 steps.
With the
Share-I-O™
technique, MBI5034 could be a drop-in replacement of predecessors. The printed circuit
board originally designed for MBI5026/36/39 may be also applied to MBI5034 only that the controllers have to be
upgraded and
OE
needs to be controllable.

*The PCB size is 76.2mm*114.3mm in simulation. Please refer to JEDEC JESD51.
** Operation at the maximum rating for extended periods may reduce the device reliability; therefore, the suggested
operation temperature of the device is under 125°C.
Note: The performance of thermal dissipation is strongly related to the size of thermal pad, thickness and layer
numbers of the PCB. The empirical thermal resistance may be different from simulative value. User should plan for
expected thermal dissipation performance by selecting package and arranging layout of the PCB to maximize the
capability.
