C-Interfaced Key-Switch Controller and LED
Driver/GPIOs with Integrated ESD Protection
MAX7360
General Description
The MAX7360 I
2
C-interfaced peripheral provides micro-
processors with management of up to 64 key switches,
with an additional eight LED drivers/GPIOs that feature
constant-current, PWM intensity control, and rotary
switch control options.
The key-switch drivers interface with metallic or resistive
switches with on-resistances up to 5kI. Key inputs
are monitored statically, not dynamically, to ensure
low-EMI operation. The MAX7360 features autosleep
and autowake modes to further minimize the power
consumption of the device. The autosleep feature puts
the device in a low-power state (1FA typ) after a sleep
timeout period. The autowake feature configures the
MAX7360 to return to normal operating mode from sleep
upon a keypress.
The key controller debounces and maintains a FIFO of
keypress and release events (including autorepeat, if
enabled). An interrupt (INTK) output can be configured
to alert keypresses, as they occur, or at maximum rate.
There are eight open-drain I/O ports, which can be used
to drive LEDs. The maximum constant-current level for
each open-drain port is 20mA. The intensity of the LED
on each open-drain port can be individually adjusted
through a 256-step PWM control. An input port pair
(PORT6, PORT7) can be configured to accept 2-bit gray
code inputs from a rotary switch. In addition, if not used
for key-switch control, up to six column pins can be used
as general-purpose open-drain outputs (GPOs) for LED
drive or logic control.
The MAX7360 is offered in a 40-pin (5mm x 5mm) thin
QFN package with an exposed pad, and a small 36-bump
wafer level package (WLP) for cell phones, pocket PCs,
and other portable consumer electronic applications. The
MAX7360 operates over the -40NC to +85NC extended
temperature range.
