11 Layout

11.1 Layout Guidelines

  1. Place the decoupling capacitor near the VCC pin and GND plane.
  2. Place the current programming resistor Riref close to IREF pin and IREFGND pin.
  3. Route the GND pattern as widely as possible for large GND currents.
  4. Routing wire between the LED cathode side and the device OUTn pin should be as short and straight as possible to reduce wire inductance.
  5. When several ICs are chained, symmetric placements are recommended.

11.3 Power Dissipation Calculation

The device power dissipation must be below the power dissipation rating of the device package to ensure correct operation. Equation 11 calculates the power dissipation of device:

Equation 11. TLC5940-EP q_pd_lvs515.gif

where

  • VCC: device supply voltage
  • ICC: device supply current
  • VOUT: TLC5940-EP OUTn voltage when driving LED current
  • IMAX: LED current adjusted by R(IREF) Resistor
  • DCn: maximum dot correction value for OUTn
  • N: number of OUTn driving LED at the same time
  • dPWM: duty cycle defined by BLANK pin or GS PWM value
