Where to use MAX7219 IC
  • This IC is basically used where you want to convert serial data to parallel data.
  • The chip is used to reduce I/O pin usage of controller or processor.
  • Used to control 64 LEDs using only 3 PINS
  • Preferred when controller 7 Segment Displays. The chip can control up to 8 DIGIT.
  • Can be used to control more display segments by connecting more chips in serial.
How to use MAX7219 IC

The chip is used similar to any shift register. First we will send serial data to chip bit by bit .once all data is sent we will tell chip to shift this serial data to output by enabling CS pin. The step by step procedure of working goes as below.

  • First connect DIN, CS and CLK pin. These three pins are important to controlling chip.
  • Next is selecting resistor for ISET pin. As we know that there is no standard parameter for segment displays in market. They have different voltage and current setting. In order to drive the display without error we will choose the appropriate resistor by using the following table.
Forward voltage
ISeg 1.5V 2.0V 2.5V 3.0V 3.5V
40mA 12.2kΩ 11.8kΩ 11.0kΩ 10.6kΩ 9.69kΩ
30mA 17.8kΩ 17.1kΩ 15.8kΩ 15.0kΩ 14.0kΩ
20mA 29.8kΩ 28.0kΩ 25.9kΩ 24.5kΩ 22.6kΩ
10mA 66.7kΩ 63.7kΩ 59.3kΩ 55.4kΩ 51.2kΩ
  • There are two ways to use this chip. One is to follow the instructions given in datasheet to send the data bit by bit. Second way is to use libraries previously written for this chip. Using the libraries is easiest way to get the required result.With libraries you can just enter the required data to send without worrying anything.
  • We will send data to the chip through DIN pin. The data is sent BIT by BIT by setting the clock of chip for each bit. The Chip stores the serial data its registers until all data is received. After completing data sending we will set the CS pin for the chip to shift all data stored in its register to the output.
  • Once the data is put out by the chip it will light up the corresponding LEDs to display the result.
Applications
