OTHER DEVICE CHARACTERISTICS
The LM3914 is relatively low-powered itself, and since any number of LEDs can be powered from about 3V, it is
a very efficient display driver. Typical standby supply current (all LEDs OFF) is 1.6mA (2.5mA max). However,
any reference loading adds 4 times that current drain to the V+ (pin 3) supply input. For example, an LM3914
with a 1mA reference pin load (1.3k), would supply almost 10mA to every LED while drawing only 10mA from its
V+ pin supply. At full-scale, the IC is typically drawing less than 10% of the current supplied to the display.
The display driver does not have built-in hysteresis so that the display does not jump instantly from one LED to
the next. Under rapidly changing signal conditions, this cuts down high frequency noise and often an annoying
flicker. An “overlap” is built in so that at no time between segments are all LEDs completely OFF in the dot mode.
Generally 1 LED fades in while the other fades out over a mV or more of range (1). The change may be much
more rapid between LED No. 10 of one device and LED No. 1 of a second device “chained” to the first.
The LM3914 features individually current regulated LED driver transistors. Further internal circuitry detects when
any driver transistor goes into saturation, and prevents other circuitry from drawing excess current. This results in
the ability of the LM3914 to drive and regulate LEDs powered from a pulsating DC power source, i.e., largely
unfiltered. (Due to possible oscillations at low voltages a nominal bypass capacitor consisting of a 2.2
μF solid
tantalum connected from the pulsating LED supply to pin 2 of the LM3914 is recommended.) This ability to
operate with low or fluctuating voltages also allows the display driver to interface with logic circuitry, opto-coupled
solid-state relays, and low-current incandescent lamps.

Accuracy is measured referred to +10.000VDC at pin 6, with 0.000 VDC at pin 4. At lower full-scale voltages, buffer and comparator offset
voltage may add significant error.
