Functional Description
VFD Display Driving
Other Pin Functions
The device can directly drive VFD clock panels dynamically. The clock will be displayed in a 24-hour format with
the hours ranging from 0 to 23 and and minutes from 00
to 59. If the most significant numeral is zero then the display will be extinguished.
The external reset pin A/C is used to reset the internal
circuit of the device. When this pin is pulled low the device will be reset, when the pin is allowed to go high, via
its internal pull-high resistor, then the display will indicate a ²0:00² output.
· Segment connections
In the open status, the SE pin is held to ²high² level by a
pull-high resistor, enabling the inputs from MS, HS and
ZA pins. These inputs become invalid by setting this pin
to a ²low² level externally.
A 7-segment display is shown below showing the illumination pattern for each numeral.

D
C
7 -S e g m e n ts
The 64Hz pin allows monitoring of the system frequency
to allow frequency adjustments to be executed. As the
name suggests, this output pin will continuously output
a frequency of 64Hz.
In the open status, the TEST1 and TEST2 pins are kept
at a ²0² level by pull-down resistors.
As the device is designed for clock applications, four
7-segment displays are required to display the correct
time output. The connections for the segments are
shown below, however it should be noted that the
fourth segment only requires two of its segments to be
driven.

· Zero adjustment
Device Functions
A zero adjust function is also included within the device and is controlled by the ZA pin. This pin is connected to an internal pull low resistor. Pulling this line
high will reset both the internal minutes and seconds
value, however the way in which the display is reset
depends upon the present value of display. If the minute value is presently less than 30 the only the second
and minute values will be reset to zero and the hour
value remain unchanged. However if the minute value
is presently at a value of 30 or higher then when the
zero adjustment function is executed, a carry will be
implemented and the hour value will be increment by
one. The following table illustrates a few examples of
this operation.
· Reset
Although the device is provided with an external reset
pin A/C, the device will in fact reset itself when power
is applied, eliminating the need for external reset components. The usual provision of an external capacitor
is not required as an internal reset capacitor is integrated within the device.
· Chatter removal
The device contains circuits which are connected to
input pins HS, MS and ZA to remove chatter of less
than 31.25ms.
· Oscillator
The basic time base frequency for this device is determined by an external 4.194304MHz crystal. When an
external crystal along with two small external capacitors are connected to the two oscillator pins, the internal oscillator circuit will ensure generation of the
correct time base signals. The oscillation frequency,
although determined by the external crystal frequency, will also be influenced by the external capacitors, the crystal inherent capacitance and the residual
capacitance of the external PCB tracks. To ensure accurate frequency generation, the crystal specification
should be taken into account and care taken to place
the external capacitors and crystal as close to the device as possible.

Time Adjustment Operation
· Hour/minute adjustment
Both the minutes and hour displays can be adjusted
separately or both together in a fast forward format.
The hour set pin, HS, and the minutes set pin, MS, are
used to make these adjustments. Both of these pins
are connected to internal pull-low resistors. Each time
one of these lines is pulled high, the respective hour or
minute value will increment by one, also if the line is
continuously held high then the respective value will
increment automatically at a rate of 2Hz. Both values
will increment together if both lines are pulled high simultaneously. Note that no carry functions will be implemented when either the hour or minute value
overflows.
