OVERVIEW:
Clare Micronix’s MXED202 is a row-multiplexed
display driver for OLED panel displays. The
MXED202 directly supports up to 128-row OLED
panel displays, or can be cascaded for controlling
additional rows. The MXED202’s low “on” switch
resistance ensures uniform luminance at rapid row
scan rates. This is the first production row driver
for OLED display OEM’s, enabling the development
and production of this new standard in flat-panel
display technology.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION:
MXED102 or similar column driver, or a controller.
In “normal mode” (single token), the token may be
entered at either end of the MXED202 row shift
register (SRIN or SLIN), depending on the shift di-
rection selection control “Shift Right” (SHR). The
token bit is shifted one row (one channel) per clock
cycle (CLK), during which time only one row maxi-

The MXED202 is capable of sinking current for up
to 128 rows (LED cathodes) of an OLED display.
One or two outputs may be active at a time. For
displays requiring more than 150mA sink current
per row, multiple MXED202’s may be placed in
parallel.

ber of rows may be used by resetting the MXED202
(RSTB) at any time, truncating the shift cycle.)
Please refer to the Table 1, Token Shift Options.
The MXED202 fully supports column precharge of
OLED display panels. During column precharge
the active row output will be high (VOH) from the
time CLK occurs until PCB (typically provided by
the column driver) goes high. When PCB goes high,
indicating that precharge is completed, the active
row output will go low, allowing the diode to turn on.
All inactive row outputs will remain high.
MXED202
The “off” output voltage, VOH, is connected to the
output of an internal op-amp. This op-amp may be
used to generate VOH, or it may be bypassed. If it
is bypassed, VOH is tied directly to VMAX, as are
inputs VDRV and INV. If the op-amp is to be used
to generate VOH, VDRV is used as the non-invert-
ing op-amp input, and INV is used as the inverting
op-amp input. External resistors are used to set
the gain, and thus VOH. Figure 4 shows the circuit
options for generating VOH.

I/O/A Description
I
DUAL tokens are seeded into the first and middle shift register
cells from SRIN or SLIN when DUAL is static active high. When
low, a single token is active. Configuration pin.
The rising edge of the CLK input shifts the token along the internal
shift register to activate successive rows.
If the PreCharge Bar input is low on the rising edge of CLK, all
row outputs will be switched to VOH to enable display panel
precharging (via the column driver) until PCB returns high.
Holding PCB high disables column precharge.
This input must be tied to ground.
This input must be tied to ground.
Select 128 row driver output mode when static active high. When
low, 120 row driver output mode is selected. Configuration pin.

Resistor OPTion pin, normally N/C for digitally controlled
precharge timing (PCB), or when precharge is disabled. When a
resistor R is connected between ROPT and PCB, and a capacitor
I/O/A C is connected between PCB and VSS, the precharge time will
be RC/1.65 when measured from the rising edge of CLK to the
falling edge of ROPT. The timing components should be selected
such that RC/1.65 not exceed 10% of the row active time.

Reset Bar - active low reset input, clears all the shift register cells,

Row driver outputs. R(0)-R(127) are used in 128 output mode,
S128=1. Only R(4)-R(123) should be connected when S128=0.
High voltage REFerence is an internally generated PFET switch
drive voltage (approximately VOH-5V), which should be bypassed
to VOH with a 2200pF external capacitor.
Low voltage REFerence is an internally generated NFET switch
drive voltage (approximately GND+5V), which should be bypassed
to GND with a 2200pF external capacitor.
