Overview

The HV5522 is a 32-channel serial-to-parallel converter designed for high-voltage applications requiring open-drain outputs up to 220V. It features an 8 MHz shift register and provides a minimum sink current of 100 mA per channel, making it ideal for driving large arrays of high-voltage loads from a low-voltage logic source.

Why Choose This Part

The device integrates 32 channels into a single package, significantly reducing component count for high-density driver boards. It supports both forward and reverse shifting for layout flexibility and includes a dedicated diode to Vpp for efficient power recovery during inductive switching.

Applications

Electroluminescent (EL) Displays
Driving segments and pixels in high-voltage EL display panels.
Piezoelectric Transducer Drivers
Managing arrays of piezo elements in ultrasonic or precision positioning systems.
Plasma Display Panels
Acting as a row or column driver for high-voltage plasma pixel addressing.
Vacuum Fluorescent Displays (VFD)
Controlling the grids and segments of high-brightness VFD units.
Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS)
Providing the high-voltage actuation signals required for MEMS mirrors or valves.

Getting Started

Designers should provide a VDD supply between 10.8V and 13.2V for the logic section and ensure CMOS-compatible levels for the clock and data inputs. Use the Polarity (POL) and Blanking (BL) pins to globally manage output states without shifting new data. Thermal management is critical when sinking the maximum 100 mA across multiple channels simultaneously.
