6 Functional Description Display RAM and Display Mode The static display RAM is organized into 408 bits and stores the data transmitted from an external device to the HT16511 through a serial interface. The contents of the RAM are directly mapped to the contents of the VFD driver. Data in the RAM can be accessed through the data setting, address setting and display control commands. It is assigned addresses in 8-bit unit as follows: 5 - / 5 - / " 5 - / 5 - / 5 - / $ 5 - / 0 0 $ 0 ' # 0 0 * " 0 % 0 ) 0, $ 0 7 ' # * " 0 7 % 0 7 ) 0 7, " 0 % 0 ) 0, $ 0 ' # 0 0 * " 0 7 % 0 7 ) 0 7, $ 0 7 ' # * # 0 0 * " 0 % 0 ) 0, $ 0 ' , 1/, 1/, 1/, 1/ ", 1/ #, 1/ $, 1/ %, 1/, 1/ ', 1/, 1/, 1/, 1/, 1/ ", 1/ #, 1/ $ Dimming Control HT16511 provides 8-step dimmer function on display by controlling the 3-bit binary command code. The full pulse width of grid signal is divides into 16 uniform sections by PWM (pulse width modulation) technology. The 16 uniform sections available form 8 steps dimmer via 3-bit binary code. The 8-step dimmer includes 1/16, 2/16, 4/16, 10/16, 11/16, 12/16, 13/16 and 14/16. The 1/16 pulse width indicates minimum lightness. The 14/16 pulse width represents maximum lightness (Refer to the display control command). Key Matrix and Key-Input Data Storage RAM The key matrix scans the series key states at each level of the key strobe signal (S1/K1~S12/K12) output of the HT The key strobe signal outputs are time-multiplexed signals from S1/K1~S12/K12. The states of inputs K0~K3 are sampled by strobe signal S1/K1~S12/K12 and latched into the register. > > > " > % : : 0 : : 0 7 M A H " > EJI 0 EC D A H " > EJI Note: Only the lower 4 bits of the addresses assigned to SEG17 through SEG20 are valid, the higher 4 bits are ignored.

7 The data of each key is stored as illustrated below, and is read with the read command, starting from the least significant bit # # 5 % % 5 ' ' 5 > > > > > " > # > $ > % LED Port The LED port belongs to the CMOS output configuration. Data is written to the LED port with the write command, starting from the least ports least significant bit. In our application (see application circuits), the user adopts an internal NMOS device to a driver LED component by connecting VDD. When a bit of this port is 0, the corresponding LED lights; when the bit is 1, the LED turns off. The data of bits 6 through 8 are ignored. 5 * 5 * > " > > > >, J? = HA 5 5 " " 5 $ $ A E C I A G K A?

The SW data is read with the read command, starting from the least significant bit. Bits 5 through 8 of the SW data are 0. 5 * 5 * > > > >, J? = HA Commands Commands set the display mode and status of the VFD driver. The first 1 byte input to the HT16511 through the DI pin after the CS pin has fallen, is regarded as a command. If CS is set high while commands/data are transmitted, serial communication is initialized, and the commands/ data being transmitted are not valid (however, the commands/data previously transmitted remains valid). Display mode setting commands These commands initialize the HT16511 and select the number of segments and the number of grids (1/8~1/16 duty, 12 segments to 20 segments). When these commands are executed, the display is forcibly turned off, and key scanning is also stopped. To resume display, the display command ON must be executed. If the same mode is selected, nothing happens. 5 * 5 * > > > > 5 A A?
