TLC5905
The TLC5905 is a constant current driver that incorporates shift register, data latch, constant current circuitry
with a current value adjustable and 256 gray scale display that uses pulse width control. The output current can
be selected as maximum 80 mA with 16 bits or 120 mA with 8 bit. The current value of the constant current output
is set by one external resistor. After this device is mounted on a printed-circuit board (PCB), the brightness
deviation between LED modules (ICs) can be adjusted using an external data input, and the brightness control
for the panel can be accomplished by the brightness adjustment circuitry. Also, the device incorporates the
output voltage monitor (OVM) used for LED open detection (LOD) by monitoring constant current output.
Moreover, the device incorporates watchdog timer (WDT) circuitry , which turns constant current output off when
the scan signal stops during dynamic scanning operation, and thermal shutdown (TSD) circuitry, which turns
constant current output off when the junction temperature exceeds the limit.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
constant current output selection by user (80 mA x16 bits or 120 mA x 8 bits)
When the MODE terminal is set to high, output is selected as 80 mA x 16 bits. When the MODE terminal is set
to low, output is selected as 120 mA x 8 bits. By this setting, the shift register latch for gray scale data is changed
to the configuration corresponding to the bit selected. Note that two constant output terminals should be tied
to LED such as OUT0-to-OUT1 and OUT2-to-OUT3 because they operate in pairs when the 8-bit output mode
is selected. Also, in this case, the current value on constant current output is the same as in 16-bit output mode.
Therefore, when output current of 120 mA is desired, the resister connected to the IREF terminal should be set
to the same value as the output current of 60 mA.
Table 1. Operation Mode Selection
MODE
H
L
80 mA × 16 bits
120 mA × 8 bits
OUTPUT
On the constant current output terminals (OUT0–15), approximately 37 times the current that flows through
external resistor, R
(connected between IREF and GND), can flow. The external resistor value is calculated
IREF
using the following equation.
R
(Ω) ≅ 37 × 1.24 (V) / I
(IREF)
(A) where BCENA is low.
OL(C)
Note that more current flows if IREF is connected directly to GND.
constant output current operation
The constant current output turns on (sink constant current), if all the gray scale data latched into the gray scale
latch is not zero on the falling edge of the gray scale clock after the next rising edge of the gray scale clock when
BLANK goes from high to low . After that, the number of the falling edge is counted by the 8-bit gray scale counter.
Then, output counted corresponding to the gray scale data is turned off (stop to sink constant current). If the
shift register for gray scale is updated during XLA TCH high, data on the gray scale data latch is also updated
affecting the number of the gray scale of constant current output. Accordingly, during on-state of constant
current output, XLA TCH should be kept at a low level and the gray scale data latch should be held. If there are
constant current output terminals unconnected (includes LED disconnection), the LED should be turned on after
writing zero to the gray scale data latch corresponding to the output unconnected. Unless this action is taken,
supply current on the constant current driver will increase resulting in influencing the current value for the
constant current output when turned on.
shift register latch
The device provides three kinds of shift register latchs including the gray scale data, brightness control, and
OVM. To write data into the shift register, SCLK and SIN are utilized. The selection of the shift register will be
done by RSEL0 and RSEL1 as shown in Table 2. Note that RSEL0 and RSEL1 should be changed when both
SCLK and XLATCH are low.

shift register latch for gray scale data
The shift register latch for gray scale data is set as a 64 x 1 bit configuration in the 8-bit mode, and as a 128
x 1 bit configuration in the 16-bit mode. The gray scale data, configured as 8 bits, represents the time when
constant current output is being turned on, and the data range is 0 to 255 (00h to FFh). When the gray scale
data is 0, the time is shortest, and the output is not turned on(light off). On the other hand, when the gray scale
data is 255, the time is longest, and it turns on during time of 255 clocks from GSCLK. The configuration of shift
register and latch for gray scale data is shown in Figure 3.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
shift register latch for brightness control and OVM
The shift register latch for both the brightness control and OVM (output voltage monitor) is configured with a
1 x 1 byte. In the shift register latch for brightness control, the division ratio of GSCLK can be set and the output
current value on constant current output can be adjusted. In the shift register latch for OVM, the comparison
voltage at the OVM comparator on constant current output terminals (OUT0 to OUT15) can be set and the output
signal for both XDOWN1 and XDOWN2 can be forced to a low level. When powered up, the latch data is
indeterminate and shift register is not initialized. When these functions are used, data should be written to the
shift register latch prior to turning the constant current output on (BLANK=L). Also, it is inhibited from rewriting
the latch value for brightness control when the constant current output is turned on. When these functions are
not used, latch value can be set to the default value setting of BCENA or MCENA or to low level (tied to GND).
The configuration of the shift register and latch for brightness control and monitor control is shown in Figure 4.

write data to shift register latch
The shift register latch written is selected using the RSEL0 and RSEL1 terminal. The data is applied to the SIN
data input terminal and clocked into the shift register synchronizing to the rising edge of SCLK after XENABLE
is pulled low. The shift register for gray scale data is 64 bit length in the 8 bit mode resulting in 64 times of SCLK,
and 128 bit length in the16 bit mode resulting in 128 times of SCLK. Brigtness control and monitor control results
in eight times the SCLK input. At number of SCLK input for each case, data can be written into the shift register.
In this condition, when XLA TCH is pulled high, data in the shift register is clocked into latch (data through), and
when XLATCH is pulled low, data is held (latch).

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
brightness control function
By writing data into the brightness control latch, current on all constant current outputs can be adjusted to control
the variation of brightness between ICs and the division ratio for the gray scale clock can be set to control the
variation of brightness for the total panel system.
output current adjustment on all constant current outputs – brightness adjustment between ICs
By using the lower 5 bits of the brightness control latch, output current can be adjusted to 32 steps as 1 step
of 1.6% current ratio between 100% and 51.6% when the output current is set to 100% of an external resistor.
By using this function, the brightness control between modules (ICs) can be adjusted, sending the desired data
externally even if ICs are mounted on a print-circuit board. When BCENA is pulled low, the output current is set
to 100%.

frequency division ratio setting for gray scale clock – panel brightness adjustment
By using the upper 3 bits of the brightness control latch, the gray scale clock can be divided into 1/1 to 1/8. If
the gray scale clock is set to 8 times the speed (256 × 8 = 2048) of frequency during horizontal scanning time,
the brightness can be adjusted to 8 steps by selecting the frequency division ratio. Therefore, the total panel
brightness can be adjusted at once, and applied to the brightness of day or night. When BCENA is pulled low,
the gray scale clock is not divided. When BCENA is pulled high, the brightness can be adjusted as shown in
Table 4.

OVM (output voltage monitor) function
By writing data into the OVM latch, the comparison voltage for voltage comparator of OUT0 to OUT15 can be
set and the output signal for XDOWN1 and XDOWN2 can be checked.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
OVM (output voltage monitor) function (continued)
OVM comparator
The OVM comparator compares the voltage on the constant current output terminal during turnon with
comparison voltage set by the OVM latch. When the voltage on the constant current output terminal is lower,
XDOWN2 goes low. As shown in Figure 5, the comparator is provided in every output portion, and the
comparison result corresponding to the output to be turned on appears in the XDOWN2 terminal. Since the
XDOWN2 terminal is an open-collector output, outputs of multiple ICs are brought together.
The output terminal for comparison result is XDOWN2 only . The voltage on all the constant current output can
be checked to monitor XDOWN2, turning output on in turn. The voltage on the constant current output, when
turned on, can also be measured, resulting in a change to the comparison voltage set by the OVM latch. Using
this function, the sensing (LOD function) LED disconnection (output voltage is below 0.3 V) and short circuit
(output voltage is extremely high) can be detected and specifies which LED has encountered this failure. Also,
by monitoring the output voltage and controlling the voltage across anode of the LED to minimize the voltage
on the constant current output (approximately 0.7 V at I
minimized. Furthermore, by setting BLANK to low during LED on, the previous comparison result can be held.
Thus, synchronizing timing to check XDOWN2 from the system to the LED lighting timing is not required. Note
that the gray scale data being turned on should be a minimum of 5 µs since the XDOWN2 output is required
approximately 5 µs after the constant current output is turned on. The comparison result is also required
approximately 5 µs after latch data is changed.

output signal check for XDOWN1, XDOWN2
XDOWN1 or XDOWN2 can be forced to a low level by setting the appropriate latch value for OVM. This allows
investigation of the correct connection of XDOWN1 or XDOWN2 to the external system. Since both XDOWN1
and XDOWN2 terminal are open-collector outputs, outputs of multiple ICs are brought together.
OVM comparator setting
Setting the OVM latch is shown in Table 5. Note that the comparison voltage is set to the default value of 0.3 V
when MCENA tied to a low level.

The timing for the SOUT output can be switched by selecting the SOMODE level. When SOMODE is low, SOUT
is clocked out synchronizing to the rising edge of SCLK. When SOMODE is high, SOUT is clocked out
synchronizing to the falling edge of SCLK. When the shift operation with SOMODE high, data can be protected
from shift error even if the SCLK signal is buffered in serial externally . In this case, when ICs are connected in
cascade, the maximum data transfer speed will be slower than the case of SOMODE low.
protection
This device incorporates WDT and TSD functions. If the WDT or TSD is turned on, then the constant current
output is stopped and XDOWN1 goes low. Therefore, by monitoring XDOWN1 terminal, these failures can be
detected immediately . Since the XDOWN1 output is configured as an open collector, outputs of multiple ICs are
brought together.

protection (continued)
WDT (watchdog timer)
The constant current output is forced to turn off and XDOWN1 goes low when the fixed period elapsed after the
signal applied to WDTRG has not been changed. Therefore, by a connecting scan signal (signal to control line
displayed) to WDTRG, the stop of the scan signal can be detected and the constant current output is turned
off preventing the LED from burning and damage by continuous LED turnon at the dynamic scanning operation.
The detection time can be set using an external capacitor, Cext. The typical value is approximately 10 ms without
a capacitor, 160 ms with a1000 pF capacitor and 1500 ms with a 0.01 µF capacitor. During static operation,
the WDT function is disabled connecting WDCAP to GND (high or low level should be applied to WDTRG). Note
that normal operation will be resumed changing the WDTRG level when WDT functions.

TSD (thermal shutdown)
When the junction temperature exceeds the limit, TSD functions and turns the constant current output off, and
XDOWN1 goes low . When TSD is used, TSENA is pulled high. When TSD is not used, TSENA is pulled low.
T o recover from constant current output of f-state to normal operation, the power supply should be turned off or
TSENA should be pulled low once.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
noise reduction
concurrent switching noise reduction
The concurrent switching noise has potential to occur when multiple outputs turn on or off at the same time. To
prevent this noise, the device has delay output terminals such as XGSOUT and BOUT for GSCLK (gray scale
clock) and BLANK (blanking signal) respectively . By connecting these outputs to GSCLK and BLANK terminals
of next stage IC, it allows differences in the switching time between ICs to be made. When GSCLK is output
to GSOUT through the device, duty will be changed between input and output, and the number of stages to be
connected will be limited depending on frequency.
output slope
When output current is 80 mA, the time to change constant current output to turnon and turnoff is approximately
150 ns and 250 ns respectively . It is effective in reducing concurrent switching noise that occurrs when multiple
outputs turn or off at the same time.
delay between constant current output
The constant current output has a delay time of approximately 30 ns between outputs. It means approximately
450 ns delay time exists between OUT0 and OUT15. This time difference by delay is effective for reduction of
concurrent switching noise as well as the output slope. This delay time has the same value in 8 bits or 16 bits
operation mode.

The bypass capacitor should be located between power the supply and GND to eliminate the variation of

Although GNDLOG, GNDANA and GNDLED are internally tied together, these terminals should be externally

The thermal pad should be connected to GND to eliminate the noise influence since it is connected to the bottom
