Power consumption estimation
Maximum power consumption PMAX = VFD driver dissipation + RL dissipation + LED driver
dissipation + dynamic power consumption.
Where segment current = 3 mA, grid current = 15 mA and LED current = 20 mA,
FIP driver dissipation = number of segments x 6 + number of grids/(number of grids + 1) x
30 (mW)
RL dissipation = (VDD – VSS)2/50 x (segment + 1) (mW)
LED driver dissipation = number of LEDs x 20 (mW)
Dynamic power consumption = VDD x 5 (mW)
Example:
Where VSS = -30 V, VDD = 3.3 V and in 16-segment and 12-digit modes,
FIP driver dissipation = 16 x 6 + 12/13 x 30 = 124
RL dissipation = 33.32/50 x 17 = 377
LED driver dissipation = 2 x 20 = 40
Dynamic power consumption = 3.3 x 5 = 16.5
Total = 557.5 mW
