A typical write protocol consist of the following: first a
burst of EN/SET rising edges that identify/target a
particular address followed by EN/SET being held
logic high for the TLAT timeout period to latch the
address value in the registers, then another burst of
rising edges that signify data with the accompanying
TLAT timeout period to latch the data value in the reg-
isters. Once an address is set, then multiple writes
to the corresponding data register are allowed with-
out having to write to the address for every change
in data values. When EN/SET is held low longer
than TOFF (500µs), the AAT2830/31 enters shutdown
mode operation and draws less than 1µA from the
input supply voltage. Data and address registers are
cleared (reset to 0) in shutdown mode operation.

interface enables all channels and sets the current
magnitude as a percentage of the maximum cur-
rent, programmed by an external resistor at BSET
(see Figure 5). To set the backlight current (mini-
mum to maximum current) of the main display
LEDs (BL1-BL4), the user would write data to
Address 1. To set the backlight current for the sub
display LEDs (BL5-BL6), the user would write data
to Address 2. To write to both main display and sub
display LEDs (BL1-BL6) at the same time, the user
would write to Address 0.
