Cost-effective integrated LED driver

Product features

  • Eight 100 mA DMOS outputs
  • Outputs current limited, 250 mA, (typ)
  • ESD protection of 2.5 KV
  • Low power operation
  • Cascadable serial interface
  • Characterized for operation between –40° C to 125° C

The TPIC6C595, a recent addition to the Power+ Logic family, is an 8-bit shift register with 100 mA DMOS outputs. The TPIC6C595 is a low-cost, monolithic IC designed specifically for low-current, medium-voltage loads such as LEDs.

To prevent the outputs from over-current damage, the TPIC6C595 has current-limit capability that decreases as the junction temperature increases for additional device protection. The outputs also provide snubber circuitry to protect the device from inductive flyback. Each input has transient protection for increased robustness making the device suited for ESD sensitive applications. Implementing any of the previously mentioned features in a bipolar peripheral solution — as in the 74HC595 and ULN2003 — would require significant external circuitry and passive components, resulting in increased cost and printed board-space.

The TPIC6C595 offers a cost-effective integrated solution, as well as high reliability for switching LEDs or low-current incandescent bulbs. The device is available in dual-in-line (N) and surface-mounted (D) packaging.
