This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more
susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

TERMINAL FUNCTIONS
TERMINAL
NAME DAP RHB I/O DESCRIPTION
32
SIN 4 I Serial input for grayscale data
Serial data shift clock. Schmitt buffer input. Data present on the SIN pin are shifted into the shift
SCLK 3 31 I register with the rising edge of the SCLK pin. Data are shifted to the MSB side by 1-bit
synchronizing of the rising edge of SCLK. The MSB data appears on SOUT at the falling edge of
SCLK. A rising edge on the SCLK input is allowed 100 ns after an XLAT rising edge.
The data in the grayscale shift register are moved to the grayscale data latch with a low-to-high
XLAT 30 26 I transition on this pin. When the XLAT rising edge is input, all constant current outputs are forced
off until the next grayscale display period. The grayscale counter is not reset to zero with a rising
edge of XLAT.
Blank (all constant current outputs off). When BLANK is high, all constant current outputs (OUT0
BLANK 2 30 I through OUT23) are forced off, the grayscale PWM timing controller initializes, and the grayscale
counter resets to '0'. When BLANK is low, all constant current outputs are controlled by the
grayscale PWM timing controller.
IREF 31 27 I/O This pin sets the constant current value. OUT0 through OUT23 constant sink current is set to the
desired value by connecting an external resistor between IREF and GND.
Serial data output. This output is connected to the shift register placed after the MSB of the
SOUT 29 25 O grayscale shift register. Therefore, the MSB data of the grayscale shift register appears at the
falling edge of SCLK. This function reduces the data shifting errors caused by small timing
margins between SIN and SCLK.

capability. Different voltages can be applied to each output.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
SETTING FOR THE CONSTANT SINK CURRENT VALUE
The constant current value for all channels is set by an external resistor (RIREF) placed between IREF and GND.
The resistor (RIREF) value is calculated by Equation 1.
RIREF (W) = 41 VIREF (V)
IOLC (mA)
(1)
Where:
VIREF = the internal reference voltage on the IREF pin (typically 1.20 V).
IOLC must be set in the range of 2 mA to 30 mA. The constant sink current characteristic for the external resistor
value is shown in Figure 10. Table 1 describes the constant current output versus external resistor value.

GRAYSCALE (GS) CONTROL FUNCTION
Each constant current sink output OUT0OUT23 (OUTn) turns on (starts to sink constant current) at the fifth
rising edge of the grayscale internal oscillator clock after the BLANK signal transitions from high to low if the
grayscale data latched into the grayscale data latch are not zero. After turn-on, the number of rising edges of the
internal oscillator is counted by the 12-bit grayscale counter. Each OUTn output is turned off once its
corresponding grayscale data values equal the grayscale counter or the counter reaches 4096d (FFFh). The
PWM control operation is repeated as long as BLANK is low. OUTn is not turned on when BLANK is high. The
timing is shown in Figure 18. All outputs are turned off at the XLAT rising edge. After that, each output is
controlled again from the first clock of the internal oscillator for the next display period, based on the latest
grayscale data.
When the IC is powered on, the data in the grayscale data shift register and latch are not set to default values.
Therefore, grayscale data must be written to the GS latch before turning on the constant current output. BLANK
should be at a high level when powered on to keep the outputs off until valid grayscale data are written to the
latch. This avoids the LED being randomly illuminated immediately after power-up. If having the outputs turn on
at power-up is not a problem for the application, then BLANK does not need to be held high. The grayscale
functions can be controlled directly by grayscale data writing, even though BLANK is connected to GND.

REGISTER CONFIGURATION
The TLC5947 has a grayscale (GS) data shift register and data latch. Both the GS data shift register and latch
are 288 bits long and are used to set the PWM timing for the constant current driver. Table 2 shows the on duty
cycle for each GS data. Figure 19 shows the shift register and data latch configuration. The data at the SIN pin
are shifted to the LSB of the shift register at the rising edge of the SCLK pin; SOUT data are shifted out on the
falling edge of SCLK. The timing diagram for data writing is shown in Figure 20. The driver on duty is controlled
by the data in the GS data latch.

GS data are transferred from the shift register to the latch by the rising edge of XLAT. When powered up, the
data in the grayscale shift register and data latch are not set to default values. Therefore, grayscale data must be
written to the GS latch before turning on the constant current output. BLANK should be at a high level when
powered on to avoid falsely turning on the constant current outputs due to random values in the latch at
power-up. All of the constant current outputs are forced off when BLANK is high. However, if the random values
turning on at power-up is not a concern in the application, BLANK can be at any level. GS can be controlled
correctly with the grayscale data writing functions, even if BLANK is connected to GND. Equation 2 determines
each output on duty.

THERMAL SHUTDOWN (TSD)
The thermal shutdown (TSD) function turns off all constant current outputs immediately when the IC junction
temperature exceeds the high temperature threshold (T(TEF) = +162 C, typ). The outputs will remain disabled as
long as the over-temperature condition exists. The outputs are turned on again at the first clock after the IC
junction temperature falls below the temperature of T(TEF) T(HYS). Figure 22 shows the TSD operation.

NOISE REDUCTION
Large surge currents may flow through the IC and the board on which the device is mounted if all 24 LED
channels turn on simultaneously at the start of each grayscale cycle. These large current surges could introduce
detrimental noise and electromagnetic interference (EMI) into other circuits. The TLC5947 turns on the LED
channels in a series delay, to provide a current soft-start feature. The output current sinks are grouped into four
groups of six channels each. The first group is OUT0, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20; the second group is OUT1, 5, 9, 13, 17,
21; the third group is OUT2, 6, 10, 14, 18, 22; and the fourth group is OUT3, 7, 11, 15, 19, 23. Each group turns
on sequentially with a small delay between groups; see Figure 9. Both turn-on and turn-off are delayed.
POWER DISSIPATION CALCULATION
The device power dissipation must be below the power dissipation rate of the device package (illustrated in
Figure 11) to ensure correct operation. Equation 3 calculates the power dissipation of the device:
PD = (VCC ICC) + (VOUT IOLC N dPWM) (3)
Where:
VCC = device supply voltage
ICC = device supply current
VOUT = OUTn voltage when driving LED current
IOLC = LED current adjusted by RIREF resistor
N = number of OUTn driving LED at the same time
dPWM = duty ratio defined by GS value
