This section describes how to configure a MAX6966 or
MAX6967 on power-up.
Software engineers can use this section as a plain-text
guide to the device’s initialization routine. Hardware
engineers can use this section to get a quick overview
of the device’s capabilities and feature tradeoffs:
1) Before power-up, all 10 I/O ports P0 to P9 are high
2) After power-up, all 10 I/O ports P0 to P9 remain
3) Decide whether the DOUT/OSC pin will be used

up to +7V or loads connected to V+ or independent

inputs even though the ports are high impedance.
The device is in shutdown mode, and draws mini-

Quick-Start Guide
Serial-Clock Input. On SCLK’s rising edge, data shifts into the internal shift register. On SCLK’s
falling edge, data is clocked out of DOUT. SCLK is active only while CS is low.
Chip-Select Input. Serial data is loaded into the shift register while CS is low. The most recent 16
bits of data latch on CS’s rising edge.
I/O Ports. P0 to P9 can be configured as open-drain current-sink outputs rated at 20mA
maximum, or as CMOS-logic inputs, or as open-drain logic outputs. Loads should be connected
to a supply voltage no higher than 7V.
Ground
Serial-Data Output. The data into DIN is valid at DOUT 15.5 clock cycles later. Use this pin to
daisy-chain several devices or allow data readback. Output is push-pull.
OSC Input. Apply a square-wave CMOS clock up to 100kHz as alternate PWM clock source.
The MAX6966 powers up with DOUT/OSC defaulting as DOUT output.
The MAX6967 powers up with DOUT/OSC defaulting as OSC input.
Serial-Data Input. Data from DIN loads into the internal 16-bit shift register on SCLK’s rising
edge.
Positive Supply Voltage. Bypass V+ to GND with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor.

5) Decide how to implement LED intensity control.
any ports are used as logic input, or if the applica-
tion needs read-after-write validation, then
DOUT/OSC needs to be configured as DOUT. Note
that both the MAX6966 and MAX6967 can configure
DOUT/OSC as either DOUT output or OSC clock
input; the only difference is the power-up default.
ports have the same features, so allocate ports for
either software convenience or board-routing rea-
sons. Any port can be constant-current LED drivers
(static or PWM), an open-drain logic output, or a
logic input. If fewer than 10 ports are used as con-
stant-current drivers, see the Applications
Information section for details on how to optimize the
PWM phasing to minimize load supply-current mod-
ulation.
The MAX6966/MAX6967 provide:
• Individual 8-bit PWM control per constant-current
• Individual 1-bit analog control (half/full) per
• Global 3-bit analog control, which applies to all
