Time-Multiplexing Matrix

The LP5866 device uses time-multiplexing matrix scheme to support up to 108 LED dots with one chip. The device integrates 18 current sinks with 6 scan lines to drive 18 × 6 = 108 LED dots or 6 × 6 = 36 RGB pixels. In matrix control scheme, the device scans from Line 0 to Line 5 sequentially as shown in Figure 7-1. Current gain and PWM duty registers are programmable for each LED dot to support individual analog and PWM dimming.

There are 6 high-side p-channel MOSFETs (PMOS) integrated in LP5866 device. Users can flexibly set the active scan numbers from 1 to 6 by configuring the 'Max_Line_Num' in Dev_initial register. The time-multiplexing matrix timing sequence follows the Figure 7-2.

One cycle time of the line switching can be calculated as below:

Equation 1. tline_switch = tPWM + tSW_BLK + 2 × tphase_shift
  • tPWM is the current sink active time, which equals to 8 us (PWM frequency set at 125 kHz) or 16 us (PWM frequency set at 62.5 kHz) by configuring 'PWM_Fre' in Dev_initial register.
  • tSW_BLK is the switch blank time, which equals to 1 us or 0.5 us by configuring 'SW_BLK' in Dev_config1 register.
  • tphase_shift is the PWM phase shift time, which equal to 0 or 125 ns by configuring 'PWM_Phase_Shift' in Dev_config1 register.

Total display time for one complete sub-period is tsub_period and it can be calculated by the following equation:

Equation 2. tsub_period = tline_switch × Scan_line#
  • Scan_line# is the scan line number determined by 'Max_Line_Num' in Dev_initial register.

The time-multiplexing matrix scheme time diagram is shown in Figure 7-3. The tCS_ON_Shift is the current sink turning on shift by configuring 'CS_ON_Shift' bit in Dev_config1 register.

The LP5866 device implements deghosting and low brightness compensation to remove the side effects of matrix topology:

  • Deghosting: Both upside deghosting and downside deghosting are implemented to eliminate the LED unexpected weak turn-on.
    • Upside_deghosting: discharge each scan line during its off state. By configuring the 'Up_Deghost' in Dev_config3 register, the LP5866 discharges and clamps the scan line switch to a certain voltage.
    • Downside_deghosting: pre-charge each current sink voltage during its OFF state. The deghosting capability can be adjusted through the 'Down_Deghost' in Dev_config3 register.

  • Low Brightness Compensation: three groups compensation are implemented to overcome the color-shift and non-uniformity in low brightness conditions. The compensation capability can be through 'Comp_Group1', 'Comp_Group2', and 'Comp_Group3' in Dev_config2 register.
    • Compensation_group 1: CS0, CS3, CS6, CS9, CS12, CS15.
    • Compensation_group 2: CS1, CS4, CS7, CS10, CS13, CS16.
    • Compensation_group 3: CS2, CS5, CS8, CS11, CS14, CS17.
