General Description
The MAX1620/MAX1621 convert a 1.8V to 20V battery
voltage to a positive or negative LCD backplane bias
voltage. Backplane bias voltage can be automatically
disabled when the display logic voltage is removed,
protecting the display. These devices use very little PC
board area, come in ultra-small QSOP packages, and
require only small, low-profile external components.
Output voltage can be set to a desired positive or nega-
tive voltage range with external resistors, and adjusted
over that range with the on-board digital-to-analog con-
verter (DAC) or with a potentiometer. The MAX1620/
MAX1621 include a 5-bit DAC, allowing digital software
control of the bias voltage. The MAX1620 uses up/down
digital signaling to adjust the DAC, and the MAX1621
uses the System Management Bus (SMBus™) 2-wire
serial interface.
These devices use a low-cost, external, N-channel MOSFET
power switch or NPN transistor, and can be configured
for positive or negative output voltages. Operating cur-
rent is a low 150µA, typically provided from a display’s
logic supply of 3.0V to 5.5V. The MAX1620/MAX1621 are
available in a 16-pin QSOP package.
