IS31FL3730
AUDIO MODULATED MATRIX LED DRIVER
December 2011
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
IS31FL3730 is a LED matrix driver which features an
audio modulation display mode and a general LED dot
matrix display mode. The default configuration of
IS31FL3730 is to drive a single 8×8 LED matrix.
However, IS31FL3730 may be configured to drive
either one or two 8×8, 7×9, 6×10, or 5×11 dot matrix
display(s). The intensity of any matrix picture can be
modulated by an audio signal.


In matrix display mode, the rows and columns of the
matrix are internally scanned, requiring only one time
programming of the individual LED on or off state, thus
eliminating the need for real time system resource
utilization to perform the row and column scanning
function.
In the general purpose mode, the ON or OFF condition
of each individual LED in the display matrix is
programmed via an I2C interface.
IS31FL3730 is available in QFN-24 (4mm × 4mm). It
operates from 2.7V to 5.5V over the temperature range
of -40°C to +85°C.

IS31FL3730
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
After the last bit of the chip address is sent, the master
checks for the IS31FL3730’s acknowledge. The
master releases the SDA line high (through a pull-up
resistor). Then the master sends an SCL pulse. If the
IS31FL3730 has received the address correctly, then it
holds the SDA line low during the SCL pulse. If the SDA
line is not low, then the master should send a “STOP”
signal (discussed later) and abort the transfer.
I2C INTERFACE
The IS31FL3730 uses a serial bus, which conforms to
the I2C protocol, to control the chip’s functions with two
wires: SCL and SDA. The IS31FL3730 has a 7-bit slave
address (A7:A1), followed by the R/W bit, A0. Since
IS31FL3730 only supports write operations, A0 must
always be 0. The value of bits A1 and A2 are decided by
the connection of the AD pin.
Following acknowledge of IS31FL3730, the register
address byte is sent, most significant bit first.
IS31FL3730 must generate another acknowledge
indicating that the register address has been received.
The complete slave address is:
Table1
Slave Address (Write only):
Bit
A7:A3
A2:A1
A0
Value
11000
AD
0
Then 8-bit of data byte are sent next, most significant
bit first. Each data bit should be valid while the SCL
level is stable high. After the data byte is sent, the
IS31FL3730 must generate another acknowledge to
indicate that the data was received.
AD connected to GND, AD=00;
AD connected to VCC, AD=11;
AD connected to SCL, AD=01;
AD connected to SDA, AD=10;
The “STOP” signal ends the transfer. To signal “STOP”,
the SDA signal goes high while the SCL signal is high.
The SCL line is uni-directional. The SDA line is
bi-directional (open-collector) with a pull-up resistor
(typically 4.7kΩ). The maximum clock frequency
specified by the I2C standard is 400kHz. In this
discussion, the master is the microcontroller and the
slave is the IS31FL3730.
Address Auto Increment
To write multiple bytes of data into IS31FL3730, load
the address of the data register that the first data byte
is intended for. During the IS31FL3730 acknowledge of
receiving the data byte, the internal address pointer will
increment by one. The next data byte sent to
IS31FL3730 will be placed in the new address, and so
on. The auto increment of the address will continue as
long as data continues to be written to IS31FL3730.
This feature is useful for loading the LED on/off
condition for each of the display matrices as a burst of
data. Pay careful attention when loading data for dual
LED matrix displays since the register addressing is
not continuous.
The timing diagram for the I2C is shown in Figure 5.
The SDA is latched in on the stable high level of the
SCL. When there is no interface activity, the SDA line
should be held high.
The “START” signal is generated by lowering the SDA
signal while the SCL signal is high. The start signal will
alert all devices attached to the I2C bus to check the
incoming address against their own chip address.
The 8-bit chip address is sent next, most significant bit
first. Each address bit must be stable while the SCL
level is high.

location will be turned on when the respective data is

in each data register. For example, in 5×11 dot matrix

APPLICATION INFORMATION
GENERAL PURPOSE DOT MATRIX DISPLAY MODE
DUAL 5×11 DOT MATRIX DISPLAY MODE
The general purpose dot matrix display timing diagram
is shown in Figure 10. IS31FL3730 may be configured
to drive displays of different dimensions from 8×8 to
5×11. Furthermore, IS31FL3730 may be configured to
drive one or two LED matrices of the same dimension.
Therefore, the overall row and column scan time can
vary based on the final LED matrix configuration.
By setting the ADM bits of the Configuration Register
(00h) to “11” and the DM bits to “11”, the IS31FL3730
will operate in the dual 5×11 LED dot matrix display
mode.
In any LED matrix configuration, a single line (column or
row) of LEDs is illuminated for 32µs before IS31FL3730
moves on to the next line of LEDs (Figure 10).
Example 1: When the IS31FL3730 is configured in the
general purpose dual 8×8 dot matrix display mode,
column controls C8:C1 scans the eight columns of
Matrix 1 then row controls R8:R1 scans the eight rows
of Matrix 2 at a rate of 1.89kHz, or 528µs per frame.
Each line is active for 32µs. The non-overlap interval
between adjacent lines is 1µs.
Example 2: When configured to drive a single 7×9 dot
matrix display (Matrix 1), the column controls C9:C1
scan the nine columns every 297µs. Also note that in
this case, the Data Registers’ MSB will be ignored.
The Matrix 1 LED columns have common cathodes
and are connected to the C1:C11 outputs. The rows
are connected to the row drivers. The Matrix 2 LED
rows have common cathodes and are connected to the
R1:R5 outputs. The columns are connected to the
column drivers. Each of the 110 LEDs can be
addressed separately. The three MSBs (D7:D5) of
each Data Register (01h~0Bh, 0Eh~18h) are ignored.
DOT MATRIX DISPLAY MODE WITH AUDIO
MODULATION
When the IS31FL3730 operates in any of the dot
matrix modes, if the bit A_EN in Configuration Register
(00h) is set to “1”, the brightness of LED image can be
modulated by audio signal not controlled by the CS bit
in Lighting Effect Register (0Dh).
An external capacitor, C_FILT is required to control the
rate at which the display intensity will change. The rate
of change is computed using the formula: ∆T =
C×500kΩ. A value of 0.1µF provides a good effect by
allowing the display to fade from full intensity to off in
approximately 50ms. Smaller capacitance will cause
the intensity to change more quickly, and, conversely, a
larger capacitance will cause the display intensity to
change at a slower rate.
SHUTDOWN MODE
Figure 10
Dot Matrix Display Timing Diagram
Shutdown mode can either be used as a means of
reducing power consumption or generating a flashing
display (repeatedly entering and leaving shutdown
mode). During shutdown mode all registers retain their
data.
DUAL 8×8 DOT MATRIX DISPLAY MODE
SOFTWARE SHUTDOWN
The application example in Figure 1 shows the
IS31FL3730 in the dual 8×8 LED dot matrix display
mode.
By setting SSD bit of the Configuration Register (00h)
to “1”, the IS31FL3730 will operate in software
shutdown mode, wherein they consume only 1.7μA
(Typ.) current. When the IS31FL3730 is in software
shutdown mode, all current sources and digital drivers
are switched off, so that the matrix is blanked.
The Matrix 1 LED columns have common cathodes and
are connected to the C1:C8 outputs. The rows are
connected to the row drivers. The Matrix 2 LED rows
have common cathodes and connected to the R1:R8.
The columns are connected to the C1:C8. Each of the
128 LEDs can be addressed separately.
