Eight LED Drivers (Each Output Programmable At Off, On, Programmable LED Brightness, Programmable Group Dimming/Blinking Mixed With Individual LED Brightness
Eight Constant-Current Open-Drain Output Channels
256-Step (8-Bit) Linear Programmable Brightness Per LED Output Varying From Fully Off (Default) to Maximum Brightness Using a 97-kHz PWM Signal
256-Step Group Brightness Control Allows General Dimming (Using a 190-Hz PWM Signal From Fully Off to Maximum Brightness (Default)
256-Step Group Blinking With Frequency Programmable From 24 Hz to 10.73 s and Duty Cycle From 0% to 99.6%
Four Hardware Address Pins Allow 14 TLC59108 Devices to be Connected to the Same I2C Bus
Four Software-Programmable I2C Bus Addresses (One LED Group Call Address and Three LED Sub Call Addresses) Allow Groups of Devices to be Addressed at the Same Time in Any Combination. For Example, One Register Used for All Call, so That All the TLC59108 Devices on the I2C Bus Can be Addressed at the Same Time, and the Second Register Can be Used for Three Different Addresses so That One-Third of All Devices on the Bus Can be Addressed at the Same Time in a Group.
Software Enable and Disable for I2C Bus Address
Software Reset Feature (SWRST Call) Allows Device to be Reset Through I2C Bus
Up to 14 Possible Hardware-Adjustable Individual I2C Bus Addresses Per Device, So That Each Device Can Be Programmed
Open-Load/Overtemperature Detection Mode to Detect Individual LED Errors
Output State Change Programmable on the Acknowledge or the Stop Command to Update Outputs Byte by Byte or All at the Same Time (Default to Change on Stop)
Output Current Adjusted Through an External Resistor
Constant Output Current Range: 10 mA to 120 mA
Maximum Output Voltage: 17 V
25-MHz Internal Oscillator Requires No External Components
1-MHz Fast Mode Plus Compatible I2C Bus Interface With 30-mA High Drive Capability on SDA Output for Driving High-Capacitive Buses
