TLC59401RHBR

Texas Instruments · LED Drivers · VQFN-32-EP(5x5)

TLC59401RHBR from Texas Instruments, in a VQFN-32-EP(5x5). Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 SCLK input Serial data shift clock for synchronizing serial input transfers.
2 SIN input Serial data input for shifting grayscale or dot correction data into the device.
3 MODE input Input mode-change pin; when MODE = GND, device is in GS mode; when MODE = VCC, device is in DC mode.
4 OUT0 output Constant-current output; multiple outputs can be configured in parallel to increase constant-current capability; different voltages can be applied to each output.
5 OUT1 output Constant-current output.
6 OUT2 output Constant-current output.
7 OUT3 output Constant-current output.
8 OUT4 output Constant-current output.
9 OUT5 output Constant-current output.
10 OUT6 output Constant-current output.
11 OUT7 output Constant-current output.
12 NC unconnected No connection.
13 NC unconnected No connection.
14 OUT8 output Constant-current output.
15 OUT9 output Constant-current output.
16 OUT10 output Constant-current output.
17 OUT11 output Constant-current output.
18 OUT12 output Constant-current output.
19 OUT13 output Constant-current output.
20 OUT14 output Constant-current output.
21 OUT15 output Constant-current output.
22 XERR output Error output; XERR is an open-drain terminal; XERR goes low when LOD or TEF is detected.
23 SOUT output Serial data output for cascading multiple devices.
24 GSCLK input Reference clock for grayscale PWM control.
25 TEST input Test pin; TEST must be connected to VCC.
26 IREF input Reference current terminal; maximum current for outputs OUT0-OUT15 is set with a resistor from IREF to GND.
27 VCC power_in Power-supply voltage; 3.0 V to 5.5 V.
28 NC unconnected No connection.
29 NC unconnected No connection.
30 GND power_in Ground.
31 BLANK input Blank all outputs; when BLANK is high, all OUTn outputs are forced OFF and GS counter is reset; when BLANK is low, OUTn are controlled by grayscale PWM control.
32 XLAT input Level triggered latch signal; when XLAT is high, writes data from input shift register to GS register (MODE low) or DC register (MODE high); when XLAT is low, data in registers are held constant.
33 EP passive Exposed pad (from the footprint; not named in the datasheet pin table).
