8.1 Overview
The TLC5971 is a 12-channel constant current sink driver. Each channel has an individually-adjustable, 65535-
step, pulse width modulation (PWM) grayscale (GS) control. Each color has a 128-step brightness control (BC).
GS data and BC data are input through a serial single-wire interface port.
The TLC5971 has a 60-mA current capability. The maximum current value of each channel is determined by the
external resistor. The TLC5971 can work without external CLK signals since it can select to use internal oscillator
or external GS clock.
The TLC5971 is integrated with a linear regulator that can be used for higher VCC power-supply voltage from 6
V to 17 V.
