The multiplexing scheme drives digits 0 and 1 at the
same time, then digits 2 and 3 at the same time. To
increase the effective brightness of the displays, drive
only two digits instead of four. By doing this, the aver-
age segment current doubles, but also doubles the
number of MAX6953s required to drive a given number
of digits.
Because digit 1 is driven at the same time as digit 0
(and digit 3 is driven at the same time as digit 2), only 1
bit is used to set the scan limit. The bit is clear if one or
two digits are to be driven, and set if three or four digits
are to be driven (Table 21).
isters, Intensity10 and Intensity32. The modulator
scales the average segment current in 16 steps from a
maximum of 15/16 down to 1/16 of the peak current.
The minimum interdigit blanking time is therefore 1/16
of a cycle. The maximum duty cycle is 15/16 (Tables 23
and 24).

Display brightness is controlled digitally by four pulse-

is controlled by a nibble of one of the two intensity reg-
