Product details

Five-digit 7-segment LED driver with 3-wire serial control

The Analog Devices MAX6950CEE+ drives 5 digits of 7-segment LED displays via a 3-wire serial interface. Supply range spans 2.7 V to 5.5 V.

What the ratings mean for your BOM

The 10 mA supply current (typical) covers the driver's own logic and oscillator, not the LED segment current — external resistors set per-segment peak current. At 5 V the 3-wire serial logic levels are 5 V tolerant, so it mates directly with 5 V microcontrollers without level shifting. The 0°C to 70°C operating range limits this part to commercial indoor equipment: office appliances, point-of-sale displays, test equipment front panels.

Lifecycle and sourcing reality

The MAX6950CEE+ carries an Active product status with ROHS3 compliance. The date-code and marking on incoming stock should be verified against the manufacturer's known laser-etch font for this package — a clean trace back to the authorized channel is the standard screen for this part.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest pin-compatible alternative to MAX6950CEE+?

Within the same family, the MAX6951CEE+ drives 8 digits instead of 5 digits but shares the same 16-QSOP footprint and 3-wire serial interface. For a drop-in replacement at 5 digits, the industrial-temperature MAX6950AEE+ (extended -40°C to +85°C) is pin-compatible. No other direct second-source is listed on the official cross-reference.

Does MAX6950CEE+ work with 5V microcontrollers?

Yes. The supply range of 2.7 V to 5.5 V allows operation from a 5 V rail, and the 3-wire serial inputs are 5 V tolerant, so no level shifting is needed when connecting to a 5 V MCU.

Can I use MAX6950CEE+ for common cathode displays?

Yes, the MAX6950CEE+ is designed for multiplexed common-cathode LED displays. The driver sinks current through the segment pins and sources current through the digit pins, matching common-cathode panel wiring.

What is the typical lead time for MAX6950CEE+?

Lead time is confirmed at quote time against an RFQ. As an active, in-production part, lead times typically align with the manufacturer's current backlog, but no specific figure is published here. Submit an RFQ for a current lead-time estimate.
