TLC6C598PWR

The Texas Instruments TLC6C598PWR is an 8-channel LED driver designed for various lighting applications. This device operates with an input voltage range of 3V to 5.5V and can provide up to 50mA of continuous current per channel. Its shift-register topology allows for serial interface control, simplifying integration into existing designs.

The TLC6C598PWR is housed in a 16-TSSOP package, suitable for surface mount applications. The operating temperature range is from -40°C to 105°C, ensuring reliable performance in diverse environmental conditions. Key features include a low quiescent current of 0.13mA and a shutdown current of 0.15µA, contributing to power efficiency.

With a maximum output current capability of 0.4A and an output voltage maximum rating of 40V, this LED driver offers flexibility for driving multiple LEDs. The integrated power DMOS transistor outputs and thermal shutdown protection enhance its robustness. Enhanced cascading is supported for multi-stage configurations, and all registers can be cleared with a single input.

This component is well-suited for applications requiring precise control over LED brightness and sequencing. Its design considerations include slow switching times to help reduce EMI. The 16-TSSOP package measures 5mm x 6.4mm, with a width of 4.40mm.
