Product details
Overview
TLC59282RGET from Texas Instruments is a 16-channel constant-current LED sink driver with grouped delay noise reduction, operating from 3 V to 5.5 V supply, delivering up to 45 mA per channel (VCC > 3.6 V), and supporting daisy-chained serial control via SIN/SCLK/LAT/BLANK interface for video displays and message boards.
For engineers reviewing the TLC59282RGET datasheet, TLC59282RGET pinout, TLC59282RGET application, or TLC59282RGET equivalent, key selection criteria include its 4-group staggered output switching (reducing EMI), ±0.6% typical channel-to-channel current matching, 35 MHz data rate, and QFN-24 package thermal performance (θJCbot = 6.3°C/W).
Technical Context
The TLC59282RGET implements a 16-bit shift register cascaded to a 16-bit output latch, with Schmitt-triggered digital inputs (SIN, SCLK, LAT, BLANK) compatible with 3.3 V or 5 V logic. Data is shifted in on SCLK rising edges and latched into outputs on LAT high-to-low transition.
Constant-current value for all 16 channels is set by a single external resistor (RIREF) connected between IREF and GND, generating 1.205 V reference; output saturation voltage is 0.31 V (typ) at 20 mA. Four output groups (e.g., OUT0/7/8/15) switch with 20 ns inter-group delay to suppress surge-induced EMI.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 3 V to 5.5 V - supports direct connection to common logic rails without level-shifting. |
| Max Output Current | 45 mA per channel (VCC ≥ 3.6 V) - enables driving high-brightness LEDs without external current amplification. |
| Channel Matching | ±0.6% (typ) channel-to-channel - ensures uniform LED brightness across 16 outputs in display panels. |
| Data Rate | 35 MHz SCLK - allows full 16-bit update in ≤457 ns, suitable for high-refresh-rate signage. |
| Output Delay Groups | 4 groups with 20 ns inter-group spacing - reduces peak di/dt and conducted EMI during simultaneous on/off transitions. |
| Thermal Resistance | θJCbot = 6.3°C/W - enables efficient heat transfer from die to PCB ground plane via exposed thermal pad. |
| BLANK Pulse Width | 30 ns minimum - permits precise blanking control for PWM dimming synchronization without visible flicker. |
Pinout & Package
Package: VQFN-24 (RGE), 4 mm × 4 mm, 0.5 mm pitch, with exposed thermal pad (not internally connected to GND; must be soldered to PCB ground plane).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | LAT | Level-triggered latch input - holds shift register data in output latch while high; data stable when low. |
| 2 | OUT0 | Constant-current sink output - connects directly to LED cathode; supports up to 17 V LED string voltage. |
| 3–4 | OUT1–OUT2 | Constant-current sink outputs - grouped with OUT0/7/8/15 for staggered turn-on/turn-off timing. |
| 18–19 | OUT14–OUT15 | Constant-current sink outputs - final group in 4-stage staggered switching sequence. |
| 20 | IREF | Reference voltage output - provides 1.205 V (typ) to set all 16 channel currents via external RIREF resistor. |
| 21 | BLANK | Global output disable - forces all OUTn off when high; internally pulled up to VCC (500 kΩ typ). |
| 22 | SOUT | Serial data output - connects to SIN of next device in daisy chain; synchronous with SCLK rising edge. |
| 23 | SIN | Serial data input - Schmitt-triggered, accepts 3.3 V/5 V logic; LSB-first loading into 16-bit shift register. |
| 24 | SCLK | Serial clock input - Schmitt-triggered; controls data shift timing and SOUT edge alignment. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 16-channel constant-current sink | Each channel independently controlled via serial interface; no external current-setting resistors per channel required. |
| Four-group staggered output switching | Reduces peak current surge by sequencing ON/OFF across four 4-channel groups with 20 ns inter-group delay. |
| Daisy-chain capability | SOUT-to-SIN cascading supports unlimited channel expansion using single controller GPIOs (SIN/SCLK/LAT/BLANK). |
| Low saturation voltage | 0.31 V (typ) at 20 mA - minimizes power loss and thermal stress in high-current LED applications. |
| Wide LED voltage support | Output voltage range up to +18 V - accommodates multi-LED strings (e.g., 5× white LEDs @ 3.2 V each). |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar constant-current LED driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLC5940RHBR | 16-channel, but includes dot-correction DACs and grayscale PWM (12-bit), higher pin count (32-QFN), requires external VREF. | Better suited for high-fidelity grayscale video where per-channel intensity correction is needed. | Select TLC5940RHBR only if per-LED grayscale control beyond simple on/off is required. |
| MAX7219CWG+ | 8-channel, integrated scan controller and BCD decoder; SPI interface; max 40 mA/channel; 24-SOIC package. | Targeted at 7-segment/matrix displays with built-in decoding; less flexible for custom LED layouts. | Choose MAX7219CWG+ for cost-sensitive 7-segment or 8×8 matrix applications where serial simplicity outweighs channel count. |
Compared with TLC59282RGET, TLC5940RHBR adds grayscale precision at the cost of complexity and layout space, while MAX7219CWG+ trades channel count and flexibility for integrated display logic-neither offers identical 16-channel daisy-chain simplicity with grouped EMI reduction.

FAQ
What is the maximum LED string voltage supported by the TLC59282RGET?
The TLC59282RGET supports an output voltage range of –0.3 V to +18 V at each OUTn pin, enabling it to drive LED strings with total forward voltage up to 17 V. This accommodates configurations such as five 3.2 V white LEDs in series, provided the VCC rail remains within 3 V–5.5 V and the thermal design sustains dissipation.
How does the four-channel grouped delay reduce EMI in the TLC59282RGET?
The TLC59282RGET staggers output switching across four predefined groups (e.g., OUT0/7/8/15 → OUT1/6/9/14 → OUT2/5/10/13 → OUT3/4/11/12) with ~20 ns inter-group delay. This spreads the total di/dt over time, lowering peak current transients and suppressing conducted and radiated EMI that would occur with simultaneous 16-channel switching.
Can the TLC59282RGET be used with a 3.3 V microcontroller without level shifters?
Yes. The TLC59282RGET features Schmitt-triggered digital inputs (SIN, SCLK, LAT, BLANK) fully compatible with 3.3 V CMOS logic levels - VIH = 0.7 × VCC (min) and VIL = 0.3 × VCC (max) - so direct interfacing with 3.3 V MCUs is supported without external level translation circuitry.
What is the role of the IREF pin on the TLC59282RGET, and how is current set?
The IREF pin outputs a stable 1.205 V (typ) reference voltage. Connecting an external resistor (RIREF) between IREF and GND sets the sink current for all 16 channels using IOUT ≈ 41.9 V / RIREF. For example, a 1.5 kΩ resistor yields ~27.9 mA per channel, adjustable across 2–45 mA depending on VCC and resistor tolerance.
Is the thermal pad on the TLC59282RGET package electrically connected internally?
No. The exposed thermal pad on the TLC59282RGET (RGE package) is not connected to any internal node. It must be externally soldered to a PCB ground plane to achieve the specified θJCbot = 6.3°C/W and ensure reliable thermal performance under sustained 45 mA/channel operation.
