Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum output current per channel of the TLC5916INE4?
The TLC5916INE4 supports a maximum output current of 85mA per channel via its open-drain constant current outputs. The output current level is set by an external resistor connected to the R-EXT pin, allowing designers to precisely tune LED brightness for different applications.
What serial interface does the TLC5916INE4 use, and can multiple devices be cascaded?
The TLC5916INE4 uses a standard SPI-compatible serial interface operating at up to 30MHz. It supports daisy-chain cascading through the serial data output (SDO) pin, making it easy to control large numbers of LEDs using only a few microcontroller I/O lines.
What package and temperature range does the TLC5916INE4 come in?
The TLC5916INE4 is offered in a 16-pin Dual-In-Line (PDIP) package. It is rated for an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, making it suitable for demanding environments. The 'E4' suffix indicates it meets RoHS-compliant (lead-free) requirements.
What are typical applications for the TLC5916INE4?
Typical applications include 7-segment LED displays, LED matrix panels, signage, industrial indicator boards, and consumer electronics. Its built-in error detection and constant current outputs make it especially useful where uniform LED brightness and fault reporting are critical.
Are there compatible alternatives to the TLC5916INE4?
Compatible alternatives include the TLC5925 and TLC5926 from Texas Instruments, which offer similar 16-bit output configurations. The TLC5916INE4 itself is an 8-bit device, so for higher channel counts, cascading multiple devices or selecting a wider output variant like the TLC5926 (16 channels) is recommended.
