Caution: These CMOS devices have input
static protection (Class 2) but are still
susceptible to damage if exposed to
extremely high static electrical charges.
The A6810– devices combine 10-bit CMOS shift registers, accom-
panying data latches and control circuitry with bipolar sourcing outputs
and pnp active pull downs. Designed primarily to drive vacuum-
fluorescent displays, the 60 V and -40 mA output ratings also allow
these devices to be used in many other peripheral power driver applica-
tions. The A6810– feature an increased data input rate (compared with
the older UCN/UCQ5810-F) and a controlled output slew rate.
The CMOS shift register and latches allow direct interfacing with
microprocessor-based systems. With a 3.3 V or 5 V logic supply,
serial-data input rates of at least 10 MHz .
A CMOS serial data output permits cascade connections in applica-
tions requiring additional drive lines. Similar devices are avail-able as
the A6811– (12 bits), A6812– (20 bits), and A6818– (32 bits).
The A6810– output source drivers are npn Darlingtons, capable of
sourcing up to 40 mA. The controlled output slew rate reduces electro-
magnetic noise, which is an important consideration in systems that
include telecommunications and/or microprocessors and to meet
government emissions regulations. For inter-digit blanking, all output
drivers can be disabled and all sink drivers turned on with a BLANK-
ING input high. The pnp active pull-downs will sink at least
2.5 mA.
The A6810– are available in two temperature ranges for optimum
performance in commercial (suffix S-) or industrial (suffix E-) applica-
tions. They are provided in three package styles for through-hole DIP
(suffix -A), surface-mount SOIC (suffix -LW), or minimum-area
surface-mount PLCC (suffix -EP). Copper lead frames, low logic-
power dissipation, and low output-saturation voltages allow all devices
to source 25 mA from all outputs continuously over the maximum
operating temperature range.

TIMING REQUIREMENTS and SPECIFICATIONS
(Logic Levels are VDD and Ground)
Serial Data present at the input is transferred to the shift
register on the logic “0” to logic “1” transition of the CLOCK
input pulse. On succeeding CLOCK pulses, the registers shift
data information towards the SERIAL DATA OUTPUT. The
SERIAL DATA must appear at the input prior to the rising edge
of the CLOCK input waveform.
Information present at any register is transferred to the
respective latch when the STROBE is high (serial-to-parallel
conversion). The latches will continue to accept new data as
long as the STROBE is held high. Applications where the
latches are bypassed (STROBE tied high) will require that the
BLANKING input be high during serial data entry.
When the BLANKING input is high, the output source
drivers are disabled (OFF); the pnp active pull-down sink
drivers are ON. The information stored in the latches is not
affected by the BLANKING input. With the BLANKING input
low, the outputs are controlled by the state of their respective
latches.
