How to address the max6953 from a pic16f84A?

[ngeronikolos]

Hello boys,

Does anyone used the max6953 to drive 4 5x7 led matrix displays? I would be very grateful for some sample code to address the max6953 from a pic(16f84A). I have difficulties understanding the protocol from the datasheets.

Thanks
Nikos

hai

i used it sometimes ago
i will find and post the coding

Instead of waiting for a code try to use the following application note from Maxim-IC: **broken link removed** .
What you really need is some I2C subroutines which are common for all I2C devices: I2C receive code and I2C transmit code. .
Do you use assembly or C ?

samples for max6953 for proteus

I have made display with MAX6952, but i have problem draving its SPI channell. If i connect more than 3 chips i can not get clear signals on SPI ( i suppose MAX6952 has bih capacitance of these pins). And now i think that i have to use repeater after 2 chips, but i'm not sure that problem lies here. If anyone has a suggestion please post it here.
I have noticed that MAX6952 has VIlo<0.4 and this is voltage is hard to acheive in high speed communications. I think that here lies the problem, but i need solution, since now i'm driving SPI with colock of only 288kHz, and MAX can be driven with up to 26MHz! Even with this low clock speed i can not connect more than 3 chips!

max6953 led matrix

well, can led block be drived using onlu PIC ? i mean no driver only algorithm ? like the graphical lcd s do ?

Yes. Content of displayed character is send using two bytes to MAX6952, first is Address and than ASCII character number.
MAX6952 is complete solution (character generator, drvier, intesity modulator...)

ya i have made such a circuit but using MAX6952 and PIC16F877 in proteus,
look at the circuit and code,hope it will be useful for u,

ali_raza117,

Haver you made some simulation with MAX6953 in the PROTEUS?, I have tried to do it but it does not work, I think that the library of this component has error, I have implemented this circuit in ProtoBard and works fine.

Can you Help me?
