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

TLC5941RHBR from Texas Instruments, in a VQFN-32-EP(5x5). Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 SCLK input Serial data shift clock, maximum frequency 30 MHz.
2 SIN input Serial data input for grayscale and dot correction data.
3 MODE input Mode selection pin; MODE = GND selects GS mode (192-bit width), MODE = VCC selects DC mode (96-bit width).
4 OUT0 output Constant-current LED driver output, 0 to 80 mA adjustable via IREF resistor with 6-bit dot correction.
5 OUT1 output Constant-current LED driver output, 0 to 80 mA adjustable via IREF resistor with 6-bit dot correction.
6 OUT2 output Constant-current LED driver output, 0 to 80 mA adjustable via IREF resistor with 6-bit dot correction.
7 OUT3 output Constant-current LED driver output, 0 to 80 mA adjustable via IREF resistor with 6-bit dot correction.
8 OUT4 output Constant-current LED driver output, 0 to 80 mA adjustable via IREF resistor with 6-bit dot correction.
9 OUT5 output Constant-current LED driver output, 0 to 80 mA adjustable via IREF resistor with 6-bit dot correction.
10 OUT6 output Constant-current LED driver output, 0 to 80 mA adjustable via IREF resistor with 6-bit dot correction.
11 OUT7 output Constant-current LED driver output, 0 to 80 mA adjustable via IREF resistor with 6-bit dot correction.
12 NC unconnected No internal connection.
13 NC unconnected No internal connection.
14 OUT8 output Constant-current LED driver output, 0 to 80 mA adjustable via IREF resistor with 6-bit dot correction.
15 OUT9 output Constant-current LED driver output, 0 to 80 mA adjustable via IREF resistor with 6-bit dot correction.
16 OUT10 output Constant-current LED driver output, 0 to 80 mA adjustable via IREF resistor with 6-bit dot correction.
17 OUT11 output Constant-current LED driver output, 0 to 80 mA adjustable via IREF resistor with 6-bit dot correction.
18 OUT12 output Constant-current LED driver output, 0 to 80 mA adjustable via IREF resistor with 6-bit dot correction.
19 OUT13 output Constant-current LED driver output, 0 to 80 mA adjustable via IREF resistor with 6-bit dot correction.
20 OUT14 output Constant-current LED driver output, 0 to 80 mA adjustable via IREF resistor with 6-bit dot correction.
21 OUT15 output Constant-current LED driver output, 0 to 80 mA adjustable via IREF resistor with 6-bit dot correction.
22 XERR tri_state Open-drain error output terminal; pulled LOW when LED open detection (LOD) or thermal error flag (TEF) is detected.
23 SOUT output Serial data output for cascading multiple devices or reading status information including LOD and TEF flags.
24 GSCLK input Reference clock for grayscale PWM control, maximum frequency 30 MHz.
25 TEST input Test pin; must be connected to VCC to ensure proper dot correction operation.
26 IREF bidirectional Reference current terminal with internal 1.24 V band-gap reference; sets maximum output current via external resistor.
27 VCC power_in Power supply voltage, operating range 3.0 V to 5.5 V.
28 NC unconnected No internal connection.
29 NC unconnected No internal connection.
30 GND power_in Ground connection.
31 BLANK input Blanking control; when HIGH disables all OUTn outputs and resets grayscale counter.
32 XLAT input Level-triggered latch signal; latches data from input shift register to GS or DC register depending on MODE pin state.
33 EP passive Exposed pad (from the footprint; not named in the datasheet pin table).
