I need to make a bar graph which is 5 LEDs wide. I thought if I parallel the 5 leds together which will parallel the corresponding output driver pins together, will simplify my PCB design greatly.
I searched the datasheet of the ST2221C but there is no mention of paralleling. Can this IC (or any other equivalent one) be paralleled provided that I always turn the 5 LEDs on or off at the same time? Mahmood |
