Abstract: This application note presents a simple, stand-alone panel-display circuit that drives a 12-LED logarithmic column. The LED column is a 12-step log indicator with 6dB step height, forming a total column range of 72dB. The circuit's accuracy and stability are defined by the specifications for the design's ADC. The MAX1276 12-bit ADC is featured.Maxim > App Notes > A/D and D/A Conversion/Sampling Circuits Display Drivers

Abstract: This application note presents a simple, stand-alone panel-display circuit that drives a 12-LED logarithmic column.
The LED column is a 12-step log indicator with 6dB step height, forming a total column range of 72dB. The circuit's accuracy
and stability are defined by the specifications for the design's ADC. The MAX1276 12-bit ADC is featured.
This design idea appeared in the October 31, 2006 issue of EE Times magazine.
