The A6818– devices combine a 32-bit CMOS shift register,
accompanying data latches and control circuitry with bipolar sourcing
outputs and pnp active pull downs. Designed primarily to drive
vacuum-fluorescent displays, the 60 V and -40 mA output ratings also
allow these devices to be used in many other peripheral power driver
applications. The A6818– features an increased data input rate (com-
pared with the older UCN/UCQ5818–F) and a controlled output slew
rate.
The CMOS shift register and latches allow direct interfacing with
microprocessor-based systems. With a 3.3 V or 5 V logic supply,
typical serial-data input rates are up to 33 MHz.
A CMOS serial data output permits cascade connections in applica-
tions requiring additional drive lines. Similar devices are available as
the A6809– and A6810– (10 bits), A6811– (12 bits), and A6812– (20
bits).
The A6818– output source drivers are npn Darlingtons, capable of
sourcing up to 40 mA. The controlled output slew rate reduces electro-
magnetic noise, which is an important consideration in systems that
include telecommunications and/or microprocessors and to meet
government emissions regulations. For inter-digit blanking, all output
drivers can be disabled and all sink drivers turned on with a BLANK-
ING input high. The pnp active pull-downs will sink at least 2.5 mA.
Two temperature ranges are available for optimum performance in
commercial (suffix S-) or industrial (suffix E-) applications. Package
styles are provided for through-hole DIP (suffix -A) or minimum-area
surface-mount PLCC (suffix -EP). Copper lead frames, low logic-
power dissipation, and low output-saturation voltages allow these
devices to drive most multiplexed vacuum-fluorescent displays over
the maximum operating temperature range.

Information present at any register is transferred to the
respective latch when the STROBE is high (serial-to-parallel
conversion). The latches will continue to accept new data as
long as the STROBE is held high. Applications where the
latches are bypassed (STROBE tied high) will require that the
BLANKING input be high during serial data entry.
When the BLANKING input is high, the output source
drivers are disabled (OFF); the pnp active pull-down sink
drivers are ON. The information stored in the latches is not
affected by the BLANKING input. With the BLANKING input
low, the outputs are controlled by the state of their respective
latches.
Serial Data present at the input is transferred to the shift
register on the logic “0” to logic “1” transition of the CLOCK
input pulse. On succeeding CLOCK pulses, the registers shift
data information towards the SERIAL DATA OUTPUT. The
SERIAL DATA must appear at the input prior to the rising edge
of the CLOCK input waveform.
