SNVU859 June 2024 LP5813
The LP5813 is a synchronous boost 4 × 3 matrix RGB LED driver with autonomous animation engine control. The device can support 1.8 V minimum start-up voltage and 0.5 V to 5.5 V input voltage range during operation. The integrated synchronous boost converter can output 3 V to 5.5 V, to provide enough forward voltage of LEDs. Time-cross-multiplexing (TCM) scheme can support up to 4×3 matrix for 12 LEDs or 4 RGB LEDs, by ¼ multiplexing ratio of the scan switches.
The LP5813 has ultra-low operation current at active mode, consuming 0.4 mA when LED maximum current setting is 25.5 mA. If all LEDs are turned off, the device enters standby state to reduce power consumption with data retained. When 'chip_enable' bit setting is 0, initial state is entered with minimum power consumption to save power.
The LP5813 supports both analog dimming and PWM dimming. In analog dimming, the output current of each LED can be adjusted with 256 steps. In PWM dimming, the integrated 8-bit configurable PWM generator enables smooth brightness dimming control. Optional exponential PWM dimming can be activated for individual LED to achieve a human-eye-friendly visual performance.
The LP5813 integrates autonomous animation engine, with no need for brightness control commands from controller. Each LED has an individual animation engine which can be configured through the related registers. The device can generate a 6 MHz clock signal, which synchronizes the lighting effects among multiple devices.
The LP5813 has 4 different material versions with different I2C chip address. Up to 4 LP581x devices can be connected to the same I2C bus and controlled individually.
