REGISTER CONFIGURATION
The TLC5947 has a grayscale (GS) data shift register and data latch. Both the GS data shift register and latch
are 288 bits long and are used to set the PWM timing for the constant current driver. Table 2 shows the on duty
cycle for each GS data. Figure 19 shows the shift register and data latch configuration. The data at the SIN pin
are shifted to the LSB of the shift register at the rising edge of the SCLK pin; SOUT data are shifted out on the
falling edge of SCLK. The timing diagram for data writing is shown in Figure 20. The driver on duty is controlled
by the data in the GS data latch.
