About this manual

The TLC5930 LED driver provides constant‑current sinking for up to twelve LED channels. It supports 12‑bit gray‑scale PWM control (1024 steps) and three brightness‑adjustment methods: plane, frequency‑division, and dot‑correction. The device communicates via a three‑signal DS‑Link interface and is offered in a 24‑pin HTSSOP (PWP) package to minimize board area.

Key features include thermal‑error flag, active wire‑check, LED leakage detection, and dual‑source gray‑scale clock. Recommended operating conditions, absolute‑maximum ratings, and timing diagrams are detailed in the handbook, along with pin functions and package options.
