The DS8870 is an interface circuit designed to be used in conjunction with MOS integrated circuits and mon-cathode LED’s in serially addressed multi-digit displays The number of drivers required for this time-multiplexed system is minimized as a result of the segment-address-and-digitscan method of LED drive.
