THL3514 Datasheet, PDF (9/16 Pages) THine Electronics, Inc. – The THL3514 is an LED driver with 24 channel constant

THL3514_Rev.1.01_E
Serial Interface Connection
THL3514 is protocol compatible with LED drivers series of opendrain outputs and constant current outputs so that can
be mixed in cascade and multidrop connection scheme .(Please note that multiple LVDS outputs can not be connected to
each other.)
*LED drivers series of opendrain outputs and constant current outputs are referred to collectively as THL35XX hereaf-
ter.
Cascade Connection by 2-pair serial LVDS
The THL35XX can convert 3-wire serial output from the host such as micro-controller or CPU to 2-pair serial LVDS,
which is connected to the 2-pair serial LVDS input of a following device in a point-to-point topology. As for the maxi-
mum number of devices to be cascaded, please refer to an application note.
