When blink is globally disabled, then only the digit data
in plane P0 is used to control the display. The digit data
in plane P1 is ignored.
By setting the T bit in multiple MAX6952s at the same
time (or in quick succession), the blink timing can be
synchronized across all the devices (Table 11). Note
that the display multiplexing sequence is also reset,
which might give rise to a one-time display flicker when
the register is written.
When global digit data clear is set, the digit data for both
planes P0 and P1 for all digits is cleared (Table 12).

Blink function is disabled.
Blink function is enabled.
Slow blinking (Segments are refreshed using plane P0 for 1s, plane P1
for 1s, for OSC = 4MHz.)

When the configuration register is read, the P bit
reflects the state of the blink output pin at that time
(Table 13).
The font is a 5
ROM, and 24 user-definable characters. The selection
from the total of 128 characters is represented by the
lower 7 bits of the 8-bit digit registers. The most-signifi-
cant bit, shown as x in the ROM map below, is zero to
light LEDs as shown by the black segments in Table
14, and 1 to display the inverse.
The character map follows the Arial font for 96 charac-
ters in the x0101000 through x1111111 range. The first
