MAX25503
4 x 24 Automotive LED Matrix
Driver
General Description
Benefits and Features
The MAX25503 is a 4 x 24-channel modular matrix
driver. The integrated current outputs can sink up to
65mA LED current each. The source drive pins provide
current to the columns of the matrix on a multiplexed
basis. Device power comes from an external 3.3V or 5V
supply while the LED current-sink outputs can operate
at up to 14V.

Flexible Configuration
• Programmable Multiplex Ratio between 4:1 and
1:1
• Integrated Column Drivers
• Programmable Dither for Enhanced Resolution
• Optional Individual Programmable Delays
• Optional Pseudorandom Spread Spectrum on
Each Output
A feedback output pin (FB) is provided to control an
external DC-DC converter so that voltage headroom can
be optimized and the overall system power dissipation
reduced.
•
•
24 Row Drivers
• Up to 65mA Peak Output Current
• Very Narrow Minimum Current Pulse for
Maximum Dimming Ratio
The device is highly flexible due to its programmability
using the SPI interface. Among the programmable
parameters are the LED current, individual PWM
settings, and multiplex ratio.
• Optional Ghosting Elimination
Extensive Diagnostics
• Shorted or Open LEDs
• Programmable V
Overvoltage Detection with
LED
The high-speed interface can be used to control up to 16
devices.
