DESCRIPTION/ORDERING INFORMATION  
The TLC59108 is an I2C bus controlled 8-bit LED driver that is optimized for red/green/blue/amber (RGBA) color  
mixing and backlight application for amusement products. Each LED output has its own 8-bit resolution  
(256 steps) fixed-frequency individual PWM controller that operates at 97 kHz, with a duty cycle that is adjustable  
from 0% to 99.6%. The individual PWM controller allows each LED to be set to a specific brightness value. An  
additional 8-bit resolution (256 steps) group PWM controller has both a fixed frequency of 190 Hz and an  
adjustable frequency between 24 Hz to once every 10.73 seconds, with a duty cycle that is adjustable from 0%  
to 99.6%. The group PWM controller dims or blinks all LEDs with the same value.

DESCRIPTION/ORDERING INFORMATION (CONTINUED)  
Each LED output can be off, on (no PWM control), or set at its individual PWM controller value at both individual  
and group PWM controller values.  
The TLC59108 is one of the first LED controller devices in a new Fast-mode Plus (Fm+) family. Fm+ devices  
offer higher frequency (up to 1 MHz) and longer, more densely populated bus operation (up to 4000 pF).  
Software programmable LED group and three Sub Call I2C bus addresses allow all or defined groups of  
TLC59108 devices to respond to a common I2C bus address, allowing for example, all red LEDs to be turned on  
or off at the same time or marquee chasing effect, thus minimizing I2C bus commands. Four hardware address  
pins allow up to 14 devices on the same bus.  
The Software Reset (SWRST) call allows the master to perform a reset of the TLC59108 through the I2C bus,  
identical to the Power-On Reset (POR) that initializes the registers to their default state, causing the outputs to  
be set high (LED off). This allows an easy and quick way to reconfigure all device registers to the same  
condition.

(1) Minimum SCL clock frequency is limited by the bus time-out feature, which resets the serial bus interface if either SDA or SCL is held  
low for a minimum of 25 ms. Disable bus time-out feature for DC operation.  
(2) tVD;ACK = time for Acknowledgement signal from SCL low to SDA (out) low.  
(3) tVD;DAT = minimum time for SDA data out to be valid following SCL low.  
(4) A master device must internally provide a hold time of at least 300 ns for the SDA signal (refer to the VIL of the SCL signal) in order to  
bridge the undefined region of SCLs falling edge.  
(5) The maximum tf for the SDA and SCL bus lines is specified at 300 ns. The maximum fall time (tf) for the SDA output stage is specified  
at 250 ns. This allows series protection resistors to be connected between the SDA and the SCL pins and the SDA/SCL bus lines  
without exceeding the maximum specified tf.  
(6) Cb = total capacitance of one bus line in pF.  
(7) Input filters on the SDA and SCL inputs suppress noise spikes less than 50 ns  
(8) Resetting the device while actively communicating on the bus may cause glitches or errant Stop conditions.  
(9) Upon reset, the full delay will be the sum of tRESET and the RC time constant of the SDA bus.

APPLICATION INFORMATION  
Functional Description  
Device Address  
Following a Start condition, the bus master must output the address of the slave it is accessing.  
Regular I2C Bus Slave Address  
The I2C bus slave address of the TLC59108 is shown in Figure 5. To conserve power, no internal pullup resistors  
are incorporated on the hardware-selectable address pins, and they must be pulled high or low. For buffer  
management purpose, a set of sector information data should be stored.

Figure 5. Slave Address  
The last bit of the address byte defines the operation to be performed. When set to logic 1, a read operation is  
selected. When set to logic 0, a write operation is selected.  
LED All Call I2C Bus Address  
Default power-up value (ALLCALLADR register): 90h or 1001 000  
Programmable through I2C bus (volatile programming)  
At power-up, LED All Call I2C bus address is enabled. TLC59108 sends an ACK when 90h (R/W = 0) or 91h  
(R/W = 1) is sent by the master.  
See LED All Call I2C Bus Address Register (ALLCALLADR) for more detail.  
NOTE:  
The default LED All Call I2C bus address (90h or 1001 000) must not be used as a  
regular I2C bus slave address since this address is enabled at power-up. All the  
TLC59108s on the I2C bus will acknowledge the address if sent by the I2C bus master  
LED Sub Call I2C Bus Address  
Three different I2C bus address can be used  
Default power-up values:  
SUBADR1 register: 92h or 1001 001  
SUBADR2 register: 94h or 1001 010  
SUBADR3 register: 98h or 1001 100  
Programmable through I2C bus (volatile programming)  
At power-up, Sub Call I2C bus address is disabled. TLC59108 does not send an ACK when 92h (R/W = 0) or  
93h (R/W = 1) or 94h (R/W = 0) or 95h (R/W = 1) or 98h (R/W = 0) or 99h (R/W = 1) is sent by the master.  
See I2C Bus Subaddress Registers 1 to 3 (SUBADR1 to SUBADR3) for more detail.  
NOTE:  
The default LED Sub Call I2C bus address may be used as a regular I2C bus slave  
address as long as they are disabled.

Software Reset I2C Bus Address  
The address shown in Figure 6 is used when a reset of the TLC59108 needs to be performed by the master. The  
software reset address (SWRST Call) must be used with R/W = 0. If R/W = 1, the TLC59108 does not  
acknowledge the SWRST. See Software Reset for more detail.

Control Register  
Following the successful acknowledgement of the slave address, LED All Call address or LED Sub Call address,  
the bus master will send a byte to the TLC59108, which will be stored in the Control register. The lowest 5 bits  
are used as a pointer to determine which register will be accessed (D[4:0]). The highest 3 bits are used as  
Auto-Increment flag and Auto-Increment options (AI[2:0]).

Figure 7. Control Register  
When the Auto-Increment flag is set (AI2 = logic 1), the five low order bits of the Control register are  
automatically incremented after a read or write. This allows the user to program the registers sequentially. Four  
different types of Auto-Increment are possible, depending on AI1 and AI0 values.

Auto-increment for individual and global control registers only. D[4:0] roll over to 0 0010 after the  
last register (1 0011) is accessed.  
NOTE:  
Other combinations not shown in Table 1. (AI[2:0] = 001, 010 and 011) are reserved  
and must not be used for proper device operation.  
AI[2:0] = 000 is used when the same register must be accessed several times during a single I2C bus  
communication, for example, changes the brightness of a single LED. Data is overwritten each time the register  
is accessed during a write operation.  
AI[2:0] = 100 is used when all the registers must be sequentially accessed, for example, power-up programming.  
AI[2:0] = 101 is used when the four LED drivers must be individually programmed with different values during the  
same I2C bus communication, for example, changing color setting to another color setting.

AI[2:0] = 110 is used when the LED drivers must be globally programmed with different settings during the same  
I2C bus communication, for example, global brightness or blinking change.  
AI[2:0] = 111 is used when individually and global changes must be performed during the same I2C bus  
communication, for example, changing color and global brightness at the same time.  
Only the 5 least significant bits D[4:0] are affected by the AI[2:0] bits.  
When the Control register is written, the register entry point determined by D[4:0] is the first register that will be  
addressed (read or write operation), and can be anywhere between 0 0000 and 1 1011 (as defined in ). When  
AI[2] = 1, the Auto-Increment flag is set and the rollover value at which the point where the register increment  
stops and goes to the next one is determined by AI[2:0]. See for rollover values. For example, if the Control  
register = 1111 0100 (F4h), then the register addressing sequence will be (in hex):  
14 ... 1B 00 ... 13 02 ... 13 02 ... as long as the master keeps sending or reading  
data.  
Driver Output  
Constant Current Output  
In LED display applications, TLC59108 provides nearly no current variations from channel to channel and from  
device to device. While IOUT 100 mA, the maximum current skew between channels is less than ±3% and less  
than ±6% between devices.  
Adjusting Output Current  
TLC59108 scales up the reference current (Iref) set by the external resistor (Rext) to sink the output current (Iout) at  
each output port. The following formulas can be used to calculate the target output current IOUT,target in the  
saturation region:  
VREXT = 1.26 V × VG  
Iref = VREXT/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 REXT terminal, and VREXT is the voltage of  
REXT, 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.  
VREXT = 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 and 26 mA at 720 . The default relationship  
after power on between IOUT,target and Rext is shown in Figure 8.

When the DMBLNK bit (MODE2 register) is programmed with logic 0, a 190-Hz fixed-frequency signal is  
superimposed with the 97-kHz individual brightness control signal. GRPPWM is then used as a global brightness  
control, allowing the LED outputs to be dimmed with the same value. The value in GRPFREQ is then a Don't

General brightness for the eight outputs is controlled through 256 linear steps from 00h (0% duty cycle = LED  
output off) to FFh (99.6% duty cycle = maximum brightness). Applicable to LED outputs programmed with  
LDRx = 11 (LEDOUT0 and LEDOUT1 registers).  
When DMBLNK bit is programmed with logic 1, the GRPPWM and GRPFREQ registers define a global blinking  
pattern, where GRPFREQ defines the blinking period (from 24 Hz to 10.73 s) and GRPPWM defines the duty  
cycle (ON/OFF ratio in %).

Current multiplier  
(1) R = read, W = write  
(2) Default value  
IREF determines the voltage gain (VG), which affects the voltage at the REXT terminal and indirectly the reference  
current (IREF) flowing through the external resistor at terminal REXT. Bit 0 is the Current Multiplier (CM) bit, which  
determines the ratio IOUT,target/Iref. Each combination of VG and CM sets a Current Gain (CG).  
VG: the relationship between {HC,CC[0:5]} and the voltage gain is calculated as shown below:  
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 to 127/256, linearly divided into 64 steps  
High voltage sub-band (HC = 1): VG = 1/2 to 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.  
VREXT = 1.26 V × VG  
Iref = VREXT/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), and it is divided into 256 steps. If CG = 127/128 = 0.992, the  
IOUT,target-Rext  
.
Examples  
IREF Code {CM, HC, CC[0:5]} = {1,1,111111}  
VG = 127/128 = 0.992 and CG = VG × 30 = VG = 0.992  
IREF Code {CM, HC, CC[0:5]} = {1,1,000000}  
VG = (1 + 1) × (1 + 0/64)/4 = 1/2 = 0.5, and CG = 0.5  
IREF Code {CM, HC, CC[0:5]} = {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 9.

Open-Circuit Detection  
The TLC59108 LED open-circuit detection compares the effective current level Iout with the open load detection  
threshold current IOUT, Th. If IOUT is below the threshold IOUT, Th the TLC59108 detects an open load condition. This  
error status can be read out as an error flag through the EFLAG register.  
For open-circuit error detection, a channel must be on.

Overtemperature Detection and Shutdown  
The TLC59108 LED is equipped with a global overtemperature sensor and eight individual channel-selective  
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 EFLAG register.  
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  
EFLAG register.  
For channel-specific overtemperature error detection, a channel must be on.  
The error flags of open-circuit and overtemperature are ORed to set the EFLAG register.  
The error status code due to overtemperature is reset when the host writes 1 to bit 7 of the MODE2 register. The  
host must write 0 to bit 7 of the MODE2 register to enable the overtemperature error flag.

(1) The global shutdown threshold temperature is approximately 170°C.  
Power-On Reset  
When power is applied to VCC, an internal power-on reset holds the TLC59108 in a reset condition until VCC  
reaches VPOR. At this point, the reset condition is released and the TLC59108 registers, and I2C bus state  
machine are initialized to their default states (all zeroes), causing all the channels to be deselected. Thereafter,  
VCC must be lowered below 0.2 V to reset the device.  
External Reset  
A reset can be accomplished by holding the RESET pin low for a minimum of tW. The TLC59108 registers and  
I2C state machine are held in their default states until the RESET input is again high.  
This input requires a pullup resistor to VCC if no active connection is used.

Software Reset  
The Software Reset Call (SWRST Call) allows all the devices in the I2C bus to be reset to the power-up state  
value through a specific I2C bus command. To be performed correctly, the I2C bus must be functional and there  
must be no device hanging the bus.  
The SWRST Call function is defined as the following:  
1. A Start command is sent by the I2C bus master.  
2. The reserved SWRST I2C bus address 1101 011 with the R/W bit set to 0 (write) is sent by the I2C bus  
master.  
3. The TLC59108 device(s) acknowledge(s) after seeing the SWRST Call address 1101 0110 (96h) only. If the  
R/W bit is set to 1 (read), no acknowledge is returned to the I2C bus master.  
4. Once the SWRST Call address has been sent and acknowledged, the master sends two bytes with two  
specific values (SWRST data byte 1 and byte 2):  
a. Byte1 = A5h: the TLC59108 acknowledges this value only. If byte 1 is not equal to A5h, the TLC59108  
does not acknowledge it.  
b. Byte 2 = 5Ah: the TLC59108 acknowledges this value only. If byte 2 is not equal to 5Ah, the TLC59108  
does not acknowledge it.  
If more than two bytes of data are sent, the TLC59108 does not acknowledge any more.  
5. Once the correct two bytes (SWRST data byte 1 and byte 2 only) have been sent and correctly  
acknowledged, the master sends a Stop command to end the SWRST Call. The TLC59108 then resets to  
the default value (power-up value) and is ready to be addressed again within the specified bus free time  
(tBUF).  
The I2C bus master may interpret a non-acknowledge from the TLC59108 (at any time) as a SWRST Call Abort.  
The TLC59108 does not initiate a reset of its registers. This happens only when the format of the Start Call  
sequence is not correct.  
Individual Brightness Control With Group Dimming/Blinking  
A 97-kHz fixed-frequency signal with programmable duty cycle (8 bits, 256 steps) is used to control the individual  
brightness for each LED.  
On top of this signal, one of the following signals can be superimposed (this signal can be applied to the four  
LED outputs):  
A lower 190-Hz fixed-frequency signal with programmable duty cycle (8 bits, 256 steps) provides a global  
brightness control.  
A programmable frequency signal from 24 Hz to 1/10.73 s (8 bits, 256 steps) provides a global blinking  
control.

This resulting Brightness + Group Dimming signal shows a resulting control signal with n = 4 (8 pulses).  
Figure 10. Brightness and Group Dimming Signals  
Characteristics of the I2C Bus  
The I2C bus is for two-way two-line communication between different devices or modules. The two lines are a  
serial data line (SDA) and a serial clock line (SCL). Both lines must be connected to a positive supply via a  
pullup resistor when connected to the output stages of a device. Data transfer may be initiated only when the bus  
is not busy.  
Bit Transfer  
One data bit is transferred during each clock pulse. The data on the SDA line must remain stable during the high  
period of the clock pulse as changes in the data line at this time will be interpreted as control signals (see  
Figure 11).

Start and Stop Conditions  
Both data and clock lines remain high when the bus is not busy. A high-to-low transition of the data line while the  
clock is high is defined as the Start condition (S). A low-to-high transition of the data line while the clock is high is  
defined as the Stop condition (P) (see Figure 12).

System Configuration  
A device generating a message is a transmitter; a device receiving is the receiver. The device that controls the  
message is the master and the devices which are controlled by the master are the slaves (see Figure 13).

Acknowledge  
The number of data bytes transferred between the Start and the Stop conditions from transmitter to receiver is  
not limited. Each byte of eight bits is followed by one acknowledge bit. The acknowledge bit is a high level put on  
the bus by the transmitter, whereas the master generates an extra acknowledge related clock pulse.  
A slave receiver which is addressed must generate an acknowledge after the reception of each byte. Also a  
master must generate an acknowledge after the reception of each byte that has been clocked out of the slave  
transmitter. The device that acknowledges has to pull down the SDA line during the acknowledge clock pulse, so  
that the SDA line is stable low during the high period of the acknowledge related clock pulse; set-up time and  
hold time must be taken into account.  
A master receiver must signal an end of data to the transmitter by not generating an acknowledge on the last  
byte that has been clocked out of the slave. In this event, the transmitter must leave the data line high to enable  
the master to generate a Stop condition.
