LCD DRVR 5DIGIT 5V 44-Pin PLCC T/R

The MAX7234 family of integrated circuits is a complete line of triplexed liquid crystal display (LCD) drivers. These devices interface microprocessors (or digital systems) to multiplexed numeric and alphanumeric displays.The MAX7234 drives 5 alphanumeric 18 segment characters. Each device includes an input buffer, digit address decoding circuitry and mask-programmed ROM allowing six bits of input data to be decoded into 64 independent combinations of the output segments of each digit. This off loads the microprocessor system, reducing the ROM space and CPU time needed to service a display.

• MAX7234 drives 5 alphanumeric characters/ 18 segments; serial input format
• On-chip oscillator
• Direct interface to microprocessors
• Monolithic, Low Power CMOS Design
