DS8863 DS8963 MOS-to-LED 8-Digit Driver
General Description
The DS8863 and DS8963 are designed to be used in con-
junction with MOS integrated circuits and common-cathode
LED's in serially addressed multi-digit displays
The DS8863 is an 8-digit driver Each driver is capable of
sinking up to 500 mA
The DS8963 is identical to the DS8863 except it is intended
for operation at up to 18V
