The
TLC59731 device is an easy-to-use, 3-channel, 50-mA sink current LED driver. The single-wire,
600-kbps serial interface (EasySet) provides a solution for minimizing wiring cost. The LED driver
provides 8-bit pulse width modulation (PWM) resolution and a simple gamma correction feature. The
display repeat rate is achieved at 3.1 kHz (typical) with an integrated 6-MHz grayscale (GS) clock
oscillator. The driver also provides unlimited cascading capability.
Output sink current can be set by each external resistor connected to the OUTn terminal in series. The TLC59731 has an internal shunt regulator that
can be used for higher VCC power-supply voltage applications.
