MAXIM INTEGRATED / ANALOG DEVICES MAX6968APE LED Driver

The MAX6968APE+ is an 8-channel, 5.5V constant current LED driver packaged in a 16-pin DIP. It features open-drain outputs capable of sinking up to 55mA each, suitable for driving LEDs with a consistent current. The device uses a standard shift register plus latch serial interface, allowing data to be shifted in via data (DIN) and clock (CLK) inputs. Data is then latched into the output using the latch enable (LE), controlling which LEDs are on or off. The active-low output enable (OE) can be toggled to turn all outputs on or off instantly and can also serve as a PWM input for brightness control. The MAX6968APE+ is suitable for applications such as signs, displays, architectural lighting, and gaming. It supports an operating voltage from 3V to 5.5V, with a temperature range of -40°C to 125°C, and features current matching accuracy for consistent LED brightness. The device's interface operates at 25MB/s with industry-standard four-wire communication.
