The TLC59283 is a 16-channel, constant-current sink light-emitting diode (LED) driver. Each channel can be individually controlled with a simple serial communications protocol that is compatible with 3.3V or 5V CMOS logic levels, depending on the operating VCC. When the serial data buffer is loaded, a LAT rising edge transfers the data to the OUTn outputs. The BLANK pin can be used to turn off all OUTn outputs during power-on and output data latching to prevent unwanted image displays during these times. The constant-current value of all 16 channels is set by a single external resistor. Each constant-current output has a pre-charge field-effect transistor (FET) that can reduce ghosting on the multiplexing (dynamic) drive LED display. Multiple TLC59283s can be cascaded together to control additional LEDs from the same processor. The TLC59283 is a 16-channel, constant-current sink light-emitting diode (LED) driver.

The TLC5929 is a 16-channel constant current sink LED driver. Each channel can be turned on or off by writing data to an internal register. The constant current value of all 16 channels is set by a single external resistor with 128 steps for the global brightness control (BC). The TLC5929 has six error flags: LED open detection (LOD), LED short detection (LSD), output leakage detection (OLD), reference current 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 TLC5930 is a constant-current sink driver with an adjustable current value, and 1024 gray scale display that uses pulse width control. The output current is 0.2 mA to 40 mA with 12 bits of RGBx4. The maximum current value of the constant-current output can be set by one external resistor. The TLC5930 includes three kinds of brightness adjustment functions: one adjusts the plane brightness between devices, changing the current values of all outputs uniformly. The second adjusts the frequency division to controls overall panel brightness, and the third adjusts the dot correction per LED, changing the current values of independent output. The TLC5930 also includes color–tone correction function for correcting color per dot (pixel) and OVM function for constant-current output terminals used for LED failure detection. Other features include the thermal error flag (TEF). The active wire-check (AWC) to check the communication between the controller and the device. The LED leakage-detect (LKD) to detect the reverse leakage on the LED. The GCLK error flag (GEF) and the HSYNC error flag (HEF) by monitoring the gray-scale clock count, and the dual source gray-scale clock (DSG) function to switch the gray-scale clock to the external input clock or to switch the internally-generated clock. The TLC5930 requires three signals for standard operation: data input and gray-scale clock. Only three-signal line and 24-pin HTSSOP package reduce board area and total cost.
