ISL24212
The ISL24212 is an 8-bit programmable current sink that can be
used in conjunction with an external voltage divider to generate a
voltage source (V
COM
) positioned between the analog supply
voltage and ground. The current sink’s full-scale range is
controlled by an external resistor, R
SET
. With the appropriate
choice of external resistors R
1
and R
2
, the V
COM
voltage range
can be controlled between any arbitrary voltage range. The
ISL24212 has an 8-bit data register and 8-bit EEPROM for storing
both a volatile and a permanent value for its output, accessible
through a single up/down counter interface pin (CTL). After the
part is programmed with the desired V
COM
value, the Counter
Enable pin (CE) can be grounded to prevent further changes. On
every power-up, the EEPROM contents are automatically
transferred to the data register and the pre-programmed output
voltage appears at the VCOM_OUT pin.
The ISL24212 also features an integrated, wide-bandwidth, high
output drive buffer amplifier that can directly drive the V
COM
input of an LCD panel.
The ISL24212 is available in an 10 Ld 3mm x 3mm TDFN
package. This package has a maximum height of 0.8mm for very
low profile designs. The ambient operating temperature range is
-40°C to +85°C
.

DVR_OUT 2 Current Sink Output. The sink current into the DVR_OUT (Digital Variable Resistor) pin is equal to the DAC setting times the maximum
adjustable sink current divided by 256. See the “SET” pin function description (pin 9) for setting the maximum adjustable sink
current.

CTL 7 Up/Down Control for internal counter and Internal EEPROM Programming Control Input. When CE is high:
A low-to-mid transition increments the 8-bit counter, adding 1 to the DAC setting, increasing the DVR_OUT sink current, and
lowering the divider voltage at the DVR_OUT pin.
A high-to-mid transition decrements the 8-bit counter, subtracting 1 from the DAC setting, decreasing the DVR_OUT sink current,
and increasing the divider voltage at the DVR_OUT pin.
To program the EEPROM, take this pin to >4.9V (see “CTL EEPROM Programming Signal Time” in the “Electrical Specification”
table on page 5 for details). Float when not in use.
