AS1106, AS1107
8-Digit LED Display Drivers
Data Sheet
1 General Description
The AS1106 and the AS1107 are compact display driv-
ers for 7-segment numeric displays of up to 8 digits. The
devices can be programmed via SPI, QSPI, and
Microwire as well as a conventional 4-wire serial inter-
face.
The devices include an integrated BCD code-B/HEX
decoder, multiplex scan circuitry, segment and display
drivers, and a 64-bit memory. Internal memory stores
the LED settings, eliminating the need for continuous
device reprogramming.
Every segment can be individually addressed and
updated separately. Only one external resistor (RSET) is
required to set the current through the LED display. LED
brightness can be controlled by analog or digital means.
The devices can be programmed to use the internal
code-B/HEX decoder to display numeric digits or to
directly address each segment.
The AS1106 and the AS1107 feature an extremely low
shutdown current of typically 3µA, and an operational
current of less than 500µA. The number of digits can be
programmed, the devices can be reset by software, and
an external clock is also supported. Additionally, seg-
ment blinking can be synchronized across multiple driv-
ers.
Several test modes are available for easy application
debugging.
The devices are available in 24-pin DIP and 24-pin
SOIC packages.
