RN4678
DS50002519D-page 12 2016-2019 Microchip Technology Inc.
2.8 LED Driver
The RN4678 has a dedicated LED driver and the LED
can be connected directly to this pin as shown in
Figure 2-7.
The maximum current sourcing for the LED is 5 mA.
The brightness of this LED can be configured via an
ASCII command.
FIGURE 2-7: LED DRIVER
The following are the LED status indications. Each indi-
cation is a configurable flashing sequence:
• Standby
• Link Back
• Low Battery
• Inquiry

2.9 Host MCU Interface over UART
Figure 2-8 illustrates an example of UART interface
with host MCU and power scheme using 3.3V to the
V
DD. From the LDO33_O pin, voltage can be routed to
the VDD_IO pin and the external circuitry including the
MCU. This power scheme ensures that the RN4678
and the MCU I/O voltages are compatible.
FIGURE 2-8: POWER AND MCU INTERFACE EXAMPLE FOR RN4678
Note 1: Ensure that VDD_IO and MCU VDD voltages are compatible.
2: The control and indication ports are configurable.
