The CD4543B is a BCD-to-7-segment latch, decoder, and driver for liquid-crystal and LED displays. It latches a BCD input and drives the seven segment outputs, with a phase (Ph) input that lets it drive LCDs directly from a backplane square wave or LEDs with a fixed level. A blanking input turns all segments off.
Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | LD | input | Latch Disable. When LD=1 the BCD inputs A-D are transparent to the decoder; when LD=0 the last BCD code is stored and the display is frozen. Minimum latch-disable pulse width tWH = 125 ns typ at VDD=5 V. |
| 2 | C | input | BCD data input, weight 2^2 (bit 2). CMOS input with typ 5 pF input capacitance; VIH/VIL = 3.5/1.5 V at VDD=5 V. |
| 3 | B | input | BCD data input, weight 2^1 (bit 1). CMOS input, latched by LD. |
| 4 | D | input | BCD data input, weight 2^3 (MSB). CMOS input, latched by LD. |
| 5 | A | input | BCD data input, weight 2^0 (LSB). CMOS input, latched by LD. |
| 6 | PHASE | input | Phase / Ph input. Selects the polarity of the seven-segment outputs. For LCD drive, apply a square wave (common-plane signal). For common-cathode LEDs tie Ph=0; for common-anode LEDs tie Ph=1. |
| 7 | BLANKING | input | Blanking (BI) input. When BI=1 all seven segment outputs are forced to the inactive state (display blanked). When BI=0 the decoded pattern (XOR'd with Ph) is presented on a-g. Tie to VSS for a pin-compatible replacement of the CD4056B. |
| 8 | VSS | power_in | Negative supply / ground reference. Voltage range 0 V; all input/output voltages are referenced to VSS. |
| 9 | a | output | Seven-segment output 'a'. CMOS push-pull driver; capable of driving two low-power TTL loads, two HTL loads, one low-power Schottky load, LCD segment (via square-wave Ph) or LED segment directly. IOL/IOH ~1 mA typ at VDD=5 V. |
| 10 | b | output | Seven-segment output 'b'. CMOS push-pull segment driver, same characteristics as segment a. |
| 11 | c | output | Seven-segment output 'c'. CMOS push-pull segment driver. |
| 12 | d | output | Seven-segment output 'd'. CMOS push-pull segment driver. |
| 13 | e | output | Seven-segment output 'e'. CMOS push-pull segment driver. |
| 14 | g | output | Seven-segment output 'g' (center bar). CMOS push-pull segment driver. |
| 15 | f | output | Seven-segment output 'f'. CMOS push-pull segment driver. |
| 16 | VDD | power_in | Positive supply. Recommended VDD-VSS = 3 V to 18 V (absolute maximum 20 V). Quiescent IDD 0.04 µA typ at VDD=5 V. |
