The device contains a 60-bit shift register, a 60-bit register circuit, and 60 VFD tube driving circuits on a single chip. Display data is serially stored in the shift register at the rising edge of a clock pulse. Setting the CL pin low allows all the VFD tube driving circuits to be driven low, which makes it possible to set the display blanking. Also, setting both of the CL and CHG pins high allows all the VFD tube driving circuits to be driven high, which provides the easy testing of all lights after final assembly of a VFD tube panel.

Shift register reads data from DIN while the CLK pin is low and the data in the shift register is shifted from one stage to the next stage at the rising edge of the clock. DIN I Serial data input pin of the shift register. Display data (positive logic) is input in the DIN pin in synchronization with clock. DOUT O Serial data output pin of the shift register. Data is output from the DOUT pin in synchronization with the CLK signal. I Latch strobe input pin. The contents of the parallel outputs (PO1 to PO60) of the shift register are read at the rising edge of LS (edge-triggered). When the CLK rises while LS is high, the parallel outputs (PO1 to PO60) and latch outputs (O1 to O60) go low. I Clear input pin with a built-in pull-down resistor. The CL pin is normally set high. If the CL pin is high and the CHG pin is low, the driver outputs (HV01 to HV60) are in phase with the corresponding register outputs (O1 to O60). If the CL pin is high and the CHG pin is high, the driver outputs (HV01 to HV60) are high irrespective of the states of the register outputs. If the CL pin is set low, the driver outputs are driven low irrespective of the states of the CHG pin and register outputs. This allows display blanking to be set. I Input for testing (with a pull-down resistor). The CL pin is normally set low. If the CHG pin is low and the CL pin is high, the driver outputs (HV01 to HV60) are in phase with the corresponding register outputs (O1 to O60). If the CHG pin is low and the CL pin is low, the driver outputs (HV01 to HV60) are low irrespective of the states of the register outputs. If the CHG pin is set high, the driver outputs are driven high irrespective of the states of the register outputs. This provides the easy testing of all lights after final assembly. O High voltage driver outputs for driving VFD tube. If the CL pin is high and the CHG pin is low, the driver outputs are in phase with the corresponding register outputs (O1 to O60). The direct connection to the grid or anode of a VFD tube eliminates pull-down resistors.

Consequently the display of a VFD tube may flickers because unnecessary driver outputs go high. To prevent such flicker, it is required to perform the following operations. 1. Turn on the logic power supply while the CL input is kept low. 2. Set the LS input high. 3. Switch the CLK input from a low level to a high level at least once. By performing the above operations, the shift register outputs (PO1 to PO60) and register outputs (O1 to O60) all are set low. 4. Enter display data. 5. Set the CL input high. Data Transfer Write display data by using a serial transfer. Serial data is input in the shift register at the rising edge of a CLK input pulse. When the LS input rises, display data is written in the latch. Driver Output Control 1. To turn on or off driver outputs by using display data transfered into the shift register, set the CL input high and set the CHG input low. 2. To set all the driver outputs low, set the CL input low. 3. To set all the driver outputs high, set the CL input and CHG input high at a time. 13/16 Semiconductor ML9261/62 Function Table Shift register Input CLK Shift Register Parallel Out Output DIN LS PO1 PO2 PO59 PO60 DOUT H L H PO1n PO58n PO59n PO59n L L L PO2n PO58n PO59n PO59n X L PO1n PO2n PO59n PO60n PO60n X H L L L L L X: Don't Care PO1n to PO59n: PO1 to PO59 data just before CLOCK rises.
