Key Featrues

24-Channel Constant-Current Sink Output: The TLC5947 supports 24 individual LED channels, each with a constant-current sink capability of up to 30 mA. This feature ensures uniform brightness across all LEDs, making it ideal for applications requiring precise and consistent lighting, such as LED displays and signage.
12-Bit PWM Grayscale Control: With 4096 steps of pulse-width modulation (PWM) control, the TLC5947 allows for highly precise dimming and color mixing. This enables smooth transitions and fine-tuning of LED brightness, enhancing visual quality in applications like stage lighting and decorative LED setups.
Thermal Shutdown (TSD) Function: The TLC5947 includes an automatic thermal shutdown feature that protects the device from overheating by turning off all output drivers. Once the temperature returns to normal, the drivers automatically restart, ensuring reliable operation and longevity in high-temperature environments.
4-MHz Internal Oscillator: The built-in 4-MHz oscillator eliminates the need for an external clock source, simplifying circuit design and reducing component count. This feature enhances efficiency and reduces overall system cost, making it suitable for compact and cost-sensitive applications.
Noise Reduction with Grouped Delay: The TLC5947 incorporates a 4-channel grouped delay mechanism to prevent inrush current, reducing electrical noise and improving system stability. This feature is particularly beneficial in applications where multiple LEDs are controlled simultaneously, such as in automotive lighting or large-scale LED installations.

Applications

High-Density LED Matrix Control: The TLC5947 is perfect for controlling high-density LED matrices in large-scale displays, such as video walls or outdoor signage. Its 24-channel, 12-bit PWM capability allows for precise brightness control and smooth color transitions, while the internal oscillator ensures consistent performance without external timing components.
Architectural Lighting Systems: The TLC5947 is ideal for architectural lighting applications, where dynamic and customizable lighting effects are required. Its ability to handle up to 30 V LED power-supply voltage and 30 mA per channel makes it suitable for driving high-power LEDs in complex lighting designs, such as facade illumination or stage lighting.
Automotive Interior Lighting: The TLC5947 can be used in automotive interior lighting systems to create customizable ambient lighting effects. Its thermal shutdown feature ensures safe operation under varying temperature conditions, while the 12-bit PWM control allows for smooth dimming and color blending, enhancing the driving experience.
Industrial Machine Vision Lighting: The TLC5947 is well-suited for industrial machine vision applications, where precise and consistent lighting is critical for accurate image capture. Its 24-channel output and 4096-step PWM control enable fine-tuning of lighting intensity, while the noise reduction feature minimizes inrush current, ensuring stable operation in industrial environments.
