DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
•
•
16 Channels
The TLC5922 is a constant-current sink driver with 128
steps of adjustable current value (dot-correction). Each
of the 16 channels has an individually controlled
dot-correction and an ON/OFF state. Both the ON/OFF
and dot-correction have their respective modes set via
1 port of serial I/F. The maximum current value of the
constant-current output of all 16 channels is pro-
grammed by a single external resistor. An external
processor programs each of the 16 channels of the
TLC5922 with the desired ON/OFF state and
dot-correction value through a single serial interface.
After all data is loaded, the processor then latches the
information into the TLC5922 and enables the outputs.

The TLC5922 includes two error flags. First is the LED
open detection (LOD) which indicates a broken LED at
an output terminal. The second is a thermal error flag
(TEF) which indicates an over temperature condition.
The TLC5922 has two methods to communicate these
error flags to the external processor. One method is on
a dedicated output pin, XDOWN. The other method is
through the serial data output pin, SOUT.
