9 Applications and Implementation

9.1 Application Information

The device is a constant sink current LED driver. This device is typically used to minimize wiring cost in applications and also provides no restrictions of cascading multiple devices in series. Furthermore, the device maximum data transfer rate is 3 Mbps and can contribute high-frequency display data change rates. The following design procedures can be used to maximize application design with minimal wiring cost. The device is also a good choice for higher VCC power-supply voltage applications because of the internal shunt regulator included in the device.

9.2 Typical Applications

9.2.1 No Internal Shunt Regulator Mode 1

This application does not use the shunt regulator. However, the device VCC and LED lamp anode voltage can be supplied from the same power supply because only one LED lamp is connected in series.

DESIGN PARAMETER EXAMPLE VALUE
Input voltage range for VCC 3.0 V or LED forward voltage (VF) + 1 V to 5.5 V
SDI voltage range Low level = GND, high level = VCC
SDI data transfer rate 100 kbps to 3 Mbps

9.2.1.2 Detailed Design Procedure

The OUTn (n = 0 to 2) constant output current is set by an external resistor connected between the device IREF and GND pins. Use Equation 1 to calculate the requirements for RIREF.

9.2.1.3 Application Curve

One LED is connected to each output.

9.2.2 No Internal Shunt Regulator Mode 2

This application does not use the shunt regulator. However, the device VCC and LED lamp anode voltage are supplied from different power supplies.

9.2.3 Internal Shunt Regulator Mode

This application uses the shunt regulator. The device VCC and LED lamp anode voltage are supplied from the same power supply. At least two LED lamps are connected in series.

9.2.3.2 Detailed Design Procedure

The TLC5973 internally integrates a shunt regulator to regulate VCC voltage. Refer to Figure 27 for an application circuit that uses the internal shunt regulator through a resistor, RVCC. The recommended RVCC value can be calculated by Equation 2.
