SNVU762 May 2021 LP5860
The LP5860EVM is used to evaluate the characteristics, operation, and usage for LED matrix driver LP5860. The LP5860 device is a high performance and small size solution, which integrates 18 constant current sinks with 11 switching MOSFETs, to drive up to 198 LED dots or 66 RGB LED pixels. Every LED dot is supported by 8-bit analog dimming and 8-bits or 16-bits configurable PWM dimming methods, which enable smooth and audible-noise-free dimming control.
This document covers following topics:
The LP5860EVM kit includes the following materials and is illustrated in Figure 1-1.
Full functions for the LP5860, the performance with RGB LED matrix, and some simple animation effects can be easily verified through this kit.
The LP5860EVM can be converted for testing the LP5868 and LP5866, which are from the same device family, by removing the factory-installed device (U1) and replacing it with the LP5868 or LP5866 counterpart. When testing the LP5868 or LP5866 device, select the corresponding tag from the menu on the GUI start page to start evaluation.
