Product Overview

The TLC59282 is a Texas Instruments 16-channel constant-current LED driver with OUT0 through OUT15 configured as sink outputs with on/off control. It operates from a 3 V to 5.5 V VCC supply and supports LED output voltage up to 17 V. Output current capability is 35 mA when VCC <= 3.6 V and 45 mA when VCC > 3.6 V, with recommended sink-current ranges of 2 mA to 35 mA or 2 mA to 45 mA depending on VCC range.

The device uses a 16-bit serial data path with SIN, SCLK, LAT, BLANK, and SOUT pins. The serial interface supports a 35 MHz maximum data shift clock, SOUT is connected to the MSB of the shift register, LAT provides level-triggered latching, and BLANK forces all outputs off when high. The IREF pin uses an external resistor to set the OUT0 to OUT15 sink current.

Package options include SSOP-24/QSOP-24 DBQ and QFN-24 RGE. For the QFN-24 RGE package, the thermal pad should be connected to GND through the PCB pattern because it is not internally connected to GND. Outputs may also be tied together to increase current.

Procurement Notes

When requesting a quote for TLC59282, buyers should confirm the manufacturer, package or case, required quantity, target date code, compliance documents, packing method, destination country and expected delivery schedule.

If alternatives are acceptable, buyers should share the approved vendor list, required electrical or optical limits, package constraints and qualification requirements. Any alternative part should be reviewed by the buyer's engineering team before production use.

For LED and optoelectronic sourcing, brightness bin, wavelength or color temperature bin, forward voltage range, viewing angle, moisture sensitivity level and soldering process limits may affect final selection, availability and lead time.

FAQ

How many LED output channels does TLC59282 provide?

TLC59282 provides 16 constant-current sink outputs, OUT0 through OUT15. Each output supports on/off control through the internal latch and serial data path, with one shift-register bit assigned to each channel.

What supply and output voltage ranges are specified?

The VCC operating range is 3 V to 5.5 V. The recommended maximum voltage applied to OUT0 through OUT15 is 17 V, while the absolute maximum OUTn voltage range is -0.3 V to +18 V.

How is the constant output current configured?

The IREF pin is the constant-current setting input/output. An external resistor from IREF to GND sets the OUT0 to OUT15 sink current, with the ideal formula specified as IOUT(IDEAL) = 41.9 × 1.205 / RIREF.

What package and thermal notes apply to TLC59282?

Package options are SSOP-24/QSOP-24 DBQ and QFN-24 RGE. For the QFN-24 RGE package, the thermal pad should be connected to GND through the PCB pattern because the pad is not internally connected to GND.
