SC16458
LED DRIVER IC (10 X 4 SEGMENTS)
DESCRIPTION
SC16458 is an LED controller driven on a 1/6 duty factor. It is
suitable for most application in a lot of consumer products and is
composed of one display memory, ten segment outputs, four grid
outputs and control circuit. The microcomputer often needs this chip
to build a highly reliable peripheral device. A three-line serial interface
is used by SC16458 to get serial data.
FEATURES
* CMOS technology
* Low power consumption
* 8-step dimming circuitry
* Serial interface for clock, data input, strobe pins
SOP-28-375-1.27

Description
Clock input pin. This pin reads serial data at the rising edge.
Serial interface strobe pin. The data input after the STB has fallen is
processed as a command. When this pin is “HIGH”, CLK is ignored.

This pin requires a resistor to obtain the accurate oscillation frequency.
Data input pin. This pin inputs serial data at the rising edge of the shift
clock (starting from the lower bits).

FUNCTION DESCRIPTIONS
COMMANDS
After the STB pin changes from “HIGH” to “LOW”, SC16458G will obtain a command via the DIN pin.
Otherwise, the STB pin is set to “HIGH”, the data/commands being transmitted are considered invalid and the
communication is initialized.
Command 1: data setting commands
The data setting commands executes the data write or data read modes for SC16458G. The data setting
command, the bit 5 and bit 6 (b4, b5) are ignored, bit 7 (b6) is given the value of “1” while bit 8(b7) is set the
value “0”. Please refer to the diagram below.
When power is ON, bit 4 to bit 1 (b3 to b0) are set the value of “0”.

Data write & read mode settings:
00: write data to display mode
Address increment mode settings (display mode):
0: increment address after data has been written (see note 1)
1: fixes address
Not
Relevant
Mode settings:
0: normal operation mode
1: test mode
Note: 1. If you want to set bit 3 (b2) to “0”, please remember that DIG5 address cannot be ignored since G5
exists, however, it is not externally bonded. Please refer to command 2, display mode and RAM address
section.
Command 2: address setting commands
The address of the display memory is set by address setting commands. If the address has a value of “00H” to
“09H”, it is considered valid. If the address is set to 0AH or higher, the data is ignored until a valid address is
set. When power is turned ON, the address is set at “00H”.
Please refer to the diagram below.

Display mode and RAM address
When an external device transmits the serial data into SC16458G, this data is stored in the display RAM and
is assigned addresses. The RAM addresses of SC16458G are given below in 8-bit unit.

Command 3: display control commands.
The display control commands are used to turn ON or OFF a display. It also used to set the pulse width.
Please refer to the diagram below. A 1/16 pulse width is selected and the display is turned OFF only when the
power is turned ON.
