DESCRIPTION/ORDERING INFORMATION
The TLC5926/TLC5927 is designed for LED displays and LED lighting applications with open-load, shorted-load,
and overtemperature detection, and constant-current control. The TLC5926/TLC5927 contains a 16-bit shift
register and data latches, which convert serial input data into parallel output format. At the TLC5926/TLC5927
output stage, 16 regulated-current ports provide uniform and constant current for driving LEDs within a wide
range of VF (Forward Voltage) variations. Used in systems designed for LED display applications (e.g., LED
panels), TLC5926/TLC5927 provides great flexibility and device performance. Users can adjust the output
current from 5 mA to 120 mA through an external resistor, Rext, which gives flexibility in controlling the light
intensity of LEDs. TLC5926/TLC5927 is designed for up to 17 V at the output port. The high clock frequency, 30
MHz, also satisfies the system requirements of high-volume data transmission.
The TLC5926/TLC5927 provides a Special Mode in which two functions are included, Error Detection and
Current Gain Control. In the TLC5926/TLC5927 there are two operation modes and three phases: Normal Mode
phase, Mode Switching transition phase, and Special mode phase. The signal on the multiple-function pin
OE(ED2) is monitored, and when a one-clock-wide short pulse appears on OE(ED2), TLC5926/TLC5927 enters
the Mode Switching phase. At this time, the voltage level on LE(ED1) determines the next mode into which the
TLC5926/TLC5927 switches.
In the Normal Mode phase, the serial data is transferred into TLC5926/TLC5927 via SDI, shifted in the shift
register, and transferred out via SDO. LE(ED1) can latch the serial data in the shift register to the output latch.
OE(ED2) enables the output drivers to sink current.
In the Special Mode phase, the low-voltage-level signal OE(ED2) can enable output channels and detect the
status of the output current, to tell if the driving current level is enough or not. The detected error status is loaded
into the 16-bit shift register and shifted out via SDO, along with the CLK signal. The system controller can read
the error status to determine whether or not the LEDs are properly lit. In the Special Mode phase,
TLC5926/TLC5927 also allows users to adjust the output current level by setting a runtime-programmable
Configuration Code. The code is sent into TLC5926/TLC5927 via SDI. The positive pulse of LE(ED1) latches the
code in the shift register into a built-in 8-bit configuration latch, instead of the output latch. The code affects the
voltage at R-EXT and controls the output-current regulator. The output current can be adjusted finely by a gain
ranging from 1/12 to 127/128 in 256 steps. Therefore, the current skew between ICs can be compensated within
less than 1%, and this feature is suitable for white balancing in LED color-display panels.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Operating Principles
Constant Current
In LED display applications, TLC5926/TLC5927 provides nearly no current variations from channel to channel
and from IC to IC. While IOUT ≤ 50 mA, the maximum current skew between channels is less than ±6% and
between ICs is less than ±6%.
Adjusting Output Current
TLC5926/TLC5927 scales up the reference current, Iref, set by the external resistor Rext to sink a current, Iout, at
each output port. Users can follow the below formulas to calculate the target output current IOUT,target in the
saturation region:
VR-EXT = 1.26 V × VG
Iref = VR-EXT/Rext, if another end of the external resistor Rext is connected to ground.
IOUT,target = Iref × 15 × 3CM – 1
Where Rext is the resistance of the external resistor connected to the R-EXT terminal, and VR-EXT is the voltage of
R-EXT, which is controlled by the programmable voltage gain (VG), which is defined by the Configuration Code.
The Current Multiplier (CM) determines that the ratio IOUT,target/Iref is 15 or 5. After power on, the default value of
VG is 127/128 = 0.992, and the default value of CM is 1, so that the ratio IOUT,target/Iref = 15. Based on the default
VG and CM.
VR-EXT = 1.26 V × 127/128 = 1.25 V
IOUT,target = (1.25 V/Rext) × 15
Therefore, the default current is approximately 52 mA at 360 Ω and 26 mA at 720 Ω. The default relationship
after power on between IOUT,target and Rext is shown in Figure 11.

Operation Phases
Operation Mode Switching
In order to switch between its two modes, TLC5926/TLC5927 monitors the signal OE(ED2). When a
one-clock-wide pulse of OE(ED2) appears, TLC5926/TLC5927 enters the two-clock-period transition phase, the
Mode Switching phase. After power on, the default operation mode is the Normal Mode (see Figure 12).

Figure 12. Mode Switching
As shown in Figure 12, once a one-clock-wide short pulse (101) of OE(ED2) appears, TLC5926/TLC5927 enters
the Mode Switching phase. At the fourth rising edge of CLK, if LE(ED1) is sampled as voltage high,
TLC5926/TLC5927 switches to Special mode; otherwise, it switches to Normal mode. The signal LE(ED1)
between the third and the fifth rising edges of CLK cannot latch any data. Its level is used only to determine into
which mode to switch. However, the short pulse of OE(ED2) can still enable the output ports. During mode
switching, the serial data can still be transferred through SDI and shifted out from SDO.
NOTES:
1. The signal sequence for the mode switching may be used frequently to ensure that the TLC5926/TLC5927 is
in the proper mode.
2. The 1 and 0 on the LE(ED1) signal are sampled at the rising edge of CLK. The X means its level does not
affect the result of mode switching mechanism.
3. After power on, the default operation mode is Normal mode.
Normal Mode Phase
Serial data is transferred into TLC5926/TLC5927 via SDI, shifted in the Shift Register, and output via SDO.
LE(ED1) can latch the serial data in the Shift Register to the Output Latch. OE(ED2) enables the output drivers to
sink current. These functions differ only as described in Operation Mode Switching, in which case, a short pulse
triggers TLC5926/TLC5927 to switch the operation mode. However, as long as LE(ED1) is high in the Mode
Switching phase, TLC5926/TLC5927 remains in the Normal mode, as if no mode switching occurred.
Special Mode Phase
In the Special mode, as long as OE(ED2) is not low, the serial data is shifted to the Shift Register via SDI and
shifted out via SDO, as in the Normal mode. However, there are two differences between the Special Mode and
the Normal Mode, as shown in the following sections.

Reading Error Status Code in Special Mode
When OE(ED2) is pulled low while in Special mode, error detection and load error status codes are loaded into
the Shift Register, in addition to enabling output ports to sink current. Figure 13 shows the timing sequence for
error detection. The 0 and 1 signal levels are sampled at the rising edge of each CLK. At least three zeros must
be sampled at the voltage low signal OE(ED2). Immediately after the second 0 is sampled, the data input source
of the Shift Register changes to the 16-bit parallel Error Status Code register, instead of from the serial data on
SDI. Normally, the error status codes are generated at least 2 μs after the falling edge of OE(ED2). The
occurrence of the third or later 0 saves the detected error status codes into the Shift Register. Therefore, when
OE(ED2) is low, the serial data cannot be shifted into TLC5926/TLC5927 via SDI. When OE(ED2) is pulled high,
the data input source of the Shift Register is changed back to SDI. At the same time, the output ports are
disabled and the error detection is completed. Then, the error status codes saved in the Shift Register can be
shifted out via SDO bit-by-bit along with CLK, as well as the new serial data can be shifted into
TLC5926/TLC5927 via SDI.
While in Special mode, the TLC5926/TLC5927 cannot simultaneously transfer serial data and detect LED load
error status.

Figure 13. Reading Error Status Code
Writing Configuration Code in Special Mode
When in Special mode, the active high signal LE(ED1) latches the serial data in the Shift Register to the
Configuration Latch, instead of the Output Latch. The latched serial data is used as the Configuration Code.
The code is stored until power off or the Configuration Latch is rewritten. As shown in Figure 14, the timing for
writing the Configuration Code is the same as the timing in the Normal Mode to latching output channel data.
Both the Configuration Code and Error Status Code are transferred in the common 16-bit Shift Register. Users
must pay attention to the sequence of error detection and current adjustment to avoid the Configuration Code
being overwritten by Error Status Code.

Open-Circuit Detection Principle
The LED Open-Circuit Detection compares the effective current level IOUT with the open load detection threshold
current IOUT,Th. If IOUT is below the IOUT,Th threshold, the TLC5926/TLC5927 detects an open-load condition. This
error status can be read as an error status code in the Special mode. For open-circuit error detection, a channel
must be on.

Short-Circuit Detection Principle (TLC5927 Only)
The LED short-circuit detection compares the effective voltage level VOUT with the shorted-load detection
threshold voltages VOUT,TTh and VOUT,RTh. If VOUT is above the VOUT,TTh threshold, the TLC5927 detects a
shorted-load condition. If the VOUT is below VOUT,RTh threshold, no error is detected and the error bit is reset. This
error status can be read as an error status code in the Special mode. For short-circuit error detection, a channel
must be on.

Overtemperature Detection and Shutdown
The TLC5926/TLC5927 is equipped with a global overtemperature sensor and 16 individual, channel-specific
overtemperature sensors.
• When the global sensor reaches the trip temperature, all output channels are shutdown, and the error status
is stored in the internal Error Status register of every channel. After shutdown, the channels automatically
restart after cooling down, if the control signal (output latch) remains on. The stored error status is not reset
after cooling down and can be read out as the error status code in the Special mode.
• When one of the channel-specific sensors reaches trip temperature, only the affected output channel is shut
down, and the error status is stored only in the internal Error Status register of the affected channel. After
shutdown, the channel automatically restarts after cooling down, if the control signal (output latch) remains
on. The stored error status is not reset after cooling down and can be read out as error status code in the
Special mode.
For channel-specific overtemperature error detection, a channel must be on.
The error status code is reset when the TLC5926/TLC5927 returns to Normal mode.

Bit 7 is first sent into TLC5926/TLC5927 via SDI. Bits 1 to 7 {HC, CC[0:5]} determine the voltage gain (VG) that
affects the voltage at R-EXT and indirectly affects the reference current, Iref, flowing through the external resistor
at R-EXT. Bit 0 is the Current Multiplier (CM) that determines the ratio IOUT,target/Iref. Each combination of VG and
CM gives a specific Current Gain (CG).
• VG: the relationship between {HC,CC[0:5]} and the voltage gain is calculated as:
VG = (1 + HC) × (1 + D/64) / 4
D = CC0 × 25 + CC1 × 24 + CC2 × 23 + CC3 × 22 + CC4 × 21 + CC5 × 20
Where HC is 1 or 0, and D is the binary value of CC[0:5]. So, the VG could be regarded as a floating-point
number with 1-bit exponent HC and 6-bit mantissa CC[0:5]. {HC,CC[0:5]} divides the programmable voltage
gain VG into 128 steps and two sub-bands:
Low voltage sub-band (HC = 0): VG = 1/4 ~ 127/256, linearly divided into 64 steps
High voltage sub-band (HC = 1): VG = 1/2 ~ 127/128, linearly divided into 64 steps
• CM: In addition to determining the ratio IOUT,target/Iref, CM limits the output current range.
High Current Multiplier (CM = 1): IOUT,target/Iref = 15, suitable for output current range IOUT = 10 mA to 120 mA.
Low Current Multiplier (CM = 0): IOUT,target/Iref = 5, suitable for output current range IOUT = 5 mA to 40 mA
• CG: The total Current Gain is defined as the following.
VR-EXT = 1.26 V × VG
Iref = VR-EXT/Rext, if the external resistor, Rext, is connected to ground.
IOUT,target = Iref × 15 × 3CM – 1 = 1.26 V/Rext × VG × 15 × 3CM – 1 = (1.26 V/Rext × 15) × CG
CG = VG × 3CM – 1
Therefore, CG = (1/12) to (127/128) divided into 256 steps.
Examples
• Configuration Code {CM, HC, CC[0:5]} = {1,1,111111}
VG = 127/128 = 0.992 and CG = VG × 30 = VG = 0.992
• Configuration Code = {1,1,000000}
VG = (1 + 1) × (1 + 0/64)/4 = 1/2 = 0.5, and CG = 0.5
• Configuration Code = {0,0,000000}
VG = (1 + 0) × (1 + 0/64)/4 = 1/4, and CG = (1/4) × 3–1 = 1/12
After power on, the default value of the Configuration Code {CM, HC, CC[0:5]} is {1,1,111111}. Therefore,
VG = CG = 0.992. The relationship between the Configuration Code and the Current Gain is shown in Figure 15.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other
changes to its semiconductor products and services per JESD46C and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48B. Buyers should
obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and complete. All
semiconductor products (also referred to herein as “components”) are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale supplied at the time
of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI’s terms
and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary
to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily
performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers’ products. Buyers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers’ products and applications, Buyers should provide
adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or
endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration
and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions.
Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service
voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice.
TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements
concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support
that may be provided by TI. Buyer represents and agrees that it has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards which
anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, monitor failures and their consequences, lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause
harm and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use
of any TI components in safety-critical applications.
In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI’s goal is to
help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and
requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms.
No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties
have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use.
Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or “enhanced plastic” are designed and intended for use in
military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components
which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and
regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI has specifically designated certain components which meet ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. Components which
have not been so designated are neither designed nor intended for automotive use; and TI will not be responsible for any failure of such
components to meet such requirements.
