AS2Cwire Serial Interface
The AAT2856 is dynamically programmable by the
AS2Cwire single-wire interface. AS2Cwire records rising
edges detected at the ENS pin to address and load the
data registers. AS2Cwire latches data or address after the
ENS input has been held high for time tLAT (500μs).
Address or data is differentiated by the number of ENS
rising edges. Since the data registers are 4 bits each, the
differentiating number of pulses is 24 or 16, so that
Address 0 is identified by 17 rising edges, Address 1 by
18 rising edges, Address 2 by 19 rising edges, etc. Data
is set to any number of rising edges between 1 and 16. A
typical write protocol is a burst of ENS rising edges iden-
tifying a particular address, followed by a pause with ENS
held high for the tLAT timeout period, then a burst of rising
edges signifying data, and another tLAT timeout after the
data has been sent. Once an address is set, multiple
writes to that address are allowed since the address is not
reset after each write. Address edges are needed when
changing the address, or writing to an address other than
the default after shutdown. Address 0 is the default
address after shutdown. If the part is enabled with only
data edges and no address, then Address 0 will be pro-
grammed and backlight channels BL1-BL6 will turn-on
according to the number of data edges applied.
When ENS is held low for a time longer than tOFF (500μs),
the AAT2856 enters shutdown mode and draws less than
1μA of current from IN. At shutdown, the data and
address registers are reset to 0.
Table 1a contains the AS2Cwire serial interface address
functionality when independent channel control is dis-
abled (independent channel control is disabled by
default) and conversely Table 1b contains the AS2Cwire
serial interface address functionality when independent
channel control is enabled.

Backlight Current Control (Address 0-3)
Use Addresses 0-3 to program all six backlight LED
channels. All six backlight channels are programmed to
the same current level by writing Address 0 followed by
any Data between 1 and 16. To program only the main
channels BL1 through BL5, use Address 1. Similarly,
use Address 2 to program only the sub channel BL6
independently.
