3 Description
The TLC59291 is a 8/16-channel constant current
sink LED driver. Each channel can be turned on-off
by writing data to an internal register. The constant
current value of all 16 channels is set by a single
external resistor and 128 steps for the global
brightness control (BC).
The TLC59291 has six type error flags: LED open
detection (LOD), LED short detection (LSD), output
leak detection (OLD), reference terminal short
detection (ISF), Pre thermal warning (PTW) and
thermal error flag (TEF). In addition, the LOD and
LSD functions have invisible detection mode (IDM)
that can detect those errors even when the output is
off. The error detection results can be read via a
serial interface port.
The TLC59291 has low quiescent current in normal
mode, it also has a power-save mode that sets the
total current consumption to 10 uA (typical) when all
outputs are off.
