STEVAL-ILL059V1
High brightness LED array driver with diagnostics for automotive
applications based on the STAP16DPS05 and STM8A
Data brief
Features
 Stand-alone mode:
– Demonstrates pre-configured patterns (with
adjustable brightness/speed) such as
rolling text, wave effect, dot sequence, etc.
– On-board buttons to switch between the
demos
– Potentiometer as a slider to control speed
or brightness of the pattern
– Open circuit, short circuit using open-
circuit/short-circuit jumpers
 GUI mode:
– All the features present in stand-alone
mode can be controlled using the GUI
– Global brightness control to change the
brightness of all channels
– Frame programming mode and 4
predefined presets with variable transition
time between frames
– Open/short error detection and
representation on the GUI
– Error detection in “no loop” and in loop of
0.5 s and 1 s
 RoHS compliant
Description
The STEVAL-ILL059V1 evaluation board is a high
brightness LED array driver application with
diagnostics based on the automotive grade, low
voltage, 16-bit constant current LED sink driver
STAP16DPS05 from STMicroelectronics.
The LED driver is configured and controlled
through an 8-bit automotive grade STM8A
microcontroller via SPI interface.
An automotive grade A5974D DC-DC converter
provides the voltages and power for the overall
functioning of the board.
This board can be used to demonstrate the LED
driver features or used to aid in application
development.
Software applications can be written, downloaded
and debugged using the on-board SWIM
connector.
