The Texas Instruments TLC5944 is a 16-channel, constant-current LED driver that is capable of driving upto 60 mA per channel. The TLC5944 has several features including 6-bit Dot Correction, 12-bit grayscalePWM dimming, Pre-Charge FET, LED failure and overtemperature detection. For more information onPWM dimming, see the TLC5944 data sheet (SBVS112 ), a Dot Correction technical paper (SLYT225 ),and a PWM Dimming technical paper (SLYT238 ) on the TI Web site. This EVM contains three TLC5944integrated circuits (IC) connected in series. The three ICs drive 16 light-emitting diodes (LED), eachhaving a red, green, and blue LED in the same package.
Multiplexing, Ghosting, and Pre-Charge FETs
The EVM is also configured to demonstrate LED multiplexing, which is connecting more than one LED toan LED driver output. The EVM demonstrates multiplexing by connecting an additional row of red LEDs toone of the LED driver ICs. The practice of multiplexing LEDs often generates a phenomenon known asGhosting. This phenomenon is also called Phantom Noise or Spike Noise. Ghosting occurs when an LEDis programmed to be off, but is visually illuminated. The LED is illuminated because of stray currentsflowing through it that are generated by switching the rows of LEDs in and out of the circuit, stray boardcapacitance, and mismatches in diode forward voltages. The TLC5944 contains Pre-Charge FETs thatshunt these currents around the LEDs so they do not produce light. The EVM GUI software allows theuser to easily demonstrate multiplexing both with and without the Pre-Charge FETs to see the ghostingeffect.
In order to operate this EVM, the following components must be connected and properly configured. Allcomponents, software, and connectors are supplied in the EVM except for the host computer and the dcpower supply
Texas Instruments provides a compact disk (CD) in the EVM kit that contains the software necessary toevaluate the TLC5944EVM. Check the TLC5944 product folder on the TI Web site (www.ti.com ) forupdates to the software.
A computer with a USB port is required to operate this EVM. The TLC5944 software runs on the personalcomputer (PC) and communicates with the EVM via the PC’s USB port.
PC Requirements:
•Windows™ 2000 or Windows XP operating system•USB port•Minimum of 30 MB of free hard disk space (100 MB recommended)•Minimum of 256 MB of RAM
A dc power supply capable of delivering 5 V at 1 A is required to power the EVM.

The TLC5944EVM-358 EVM kit contains three printed-circuit boards: HPA358 (Driver board), HPA357(LED board), and TMDSCNCD2808 (DSP board).
Driver Board: The Driver board contains the TLC5944 ICs and their required external components. Thisboard contains several jumpers and connectors that enable you to customize the board for specificoperating conditions. This board interfaces directly to the host computer via a USB connector. The EVMGUI software communicates with the Driver board through a TUSB3410. The TUSB3410 communicateswith the DSP board with an RS-232 protocol. The Driver board contains resistors R16-R27 that set abinary code to tell the DSP what EVM is connected. It contains all power supply circuitry as well ascircuitry containing Q1 and Q2 to enable and disable the ghosting features of the IC. The Driver board isdesigned to directly drive the LED board; however, the customer may also remove the LED board to drivea custom LED board.
LED Board: The LED board contains two rows of LEDs. Row A consists of 16 LEDs, each with threeindividual LEDs in the same package: a red, a green, and a blue LED. Row B consists of a 16 LEDs, eachwith a single red LED. It also contains the circuitry required to multiplex between Row A and Row B. Adigital signal, ROW_CTRL_0, from the Driver board connects power to Row A when high and connectspower to Row B when low. The orderable Texas Instruments part number for this PCB is LEDEVM-357.
DSP Board: The DSP board contains a TMS320F2808 ('F2808) microcontroller that programs andcontrols the three TLC5944 ICs on the Driver board. The 'F2808 DSP decodes the information it receivesfrom the LED Driver board and converts it into a form required by the TLC5944 ICs. The DSP board’sorderable part number is TMDSCNCD2808. Figure 1 shows how these boards are connected.

This mini-USB connector connects the EVM directly to the host PC’s USB port.
This connector mates to the HPA358 LED board. The customer also can connect a custom board to thisconnector with a 30-pin ribbon cable. To minimize stray inductance and ringing on the output traces, makeconnections to this connector as short as possible. This connector allows the user to connect ZigBeedevices such as the eZ430-RF2500. The user can write customized code to control the TLC5944EVM witha wireless ZigBee connection. J2 is not populated or used with the supplied EVM software.
This connector allows the user to connect an RS-232 device. The user can write customized code tocontrol the TLC5944EVM or to modify the DSP board’s firmware. J3 is not populated or used with thesupplied EVM software.
The DSP board plugs into the J4 connector on the Driver board.
This connector can be used for JTAG communications to help debug user-generated software. J5 is notpopulated or used with the supplied EVM software.
This is the positive input supply to the EVM. The input voltage must be between 5 V and 15 V for normaloperation with no multiplexing. When Row A and Row B are multiplexed by checking the Ghosting Demobutton in the software, the maximum operating voltage is 10 V. The 10-V maximum voltage is limited byswitching losses in the FETs on the LED board. The EVM can be operated with 15 V when multiplexing, ifforced air cooling is used on the LED board. To minimize power dissipation, the input voltage must be aslow as possible. The leads to the input supply must be twisted and kept as short as possible to minimizeEMI transmission.
This connector is the return for the input supply to the EVM. The leads to the input supply must be twistedand kept as short as possible to minimize EMI transmission.
This is a right-angle miniature power jack with a 3,5-mm diameter connection. The user can use thisconnector to supply input power to the EVM from an ac-to-dc plug-in adapter. The inner pin on theconnector is connected directly to J6 (Vin). The outer pin on the connector is connected directly to J8(GND). When using an ac-to-dc plug-in adapter, ensure that the plug-in adapter’s output voltage is stableand does not drop below 5 V when loaded.

This connector contains shorting shunts that connect the 'F2808 DSP to the TLC5944 LED drivers. Theshunts are preconfigured to properly connect the DSP’s GPIO control signals to the LED driver ICs. TheGND pins on this connector do not need shorting shunts because these pins are connected to the groundplane of the PCB. The user can remove all shorting shunts to disconnect the 'F2808 from the TLC5944ICs. This allows the user to connect control signals from a separate microprocessor to this connector toprogram the LED drivers. The XERR signal does not need a shorting jumper because the user graphicalinterface (GUI) software does not use this signal.
CAUTION
Do not drive the outputs of the TMS320F2808 on the DSP board with externalcontrol signals.
This connector mates to the HPA358 LED board. The user also can connect a custom board to thisconnector with a standard 30-pin ribbon cable with 0.1-inch pin-to-pin spacing. In order to minimize strayinductance and ringing on the output traces, connections to this connector must be as short as possible.

In order to minimize strayinductance and ringing on the output traces, connections to this connector must be as short as possible.
When a short is connected between pins 1-2, the 'F2808 boots up from the USB port connector, J1. Whena short is connected between pins 2-3, the 'F2808 boots up from its internal flash EEPROM. The defaultboot location is the 'F2808 internal EEPROM. Firmware updates to the EEPROM require changes to theJP1 settings. The GUI software provides detailed instructions on how to update the firmware. If the userconfigures the EVM to communicate through the RS-232 or Zigbee connector, short JP1 pins 1 and 2together so that the DSP boots from the RS-232 or Zigbee connector.
This jumper must be shorted to connect the red LED driver’s OUT15 pin to the red LED. This jumper canbe opened to measure the current flowing into the OUT15 pin from the red LED.
This jumper must be shorted to connect the green LED driver’s OUT15 pin to the green LED. This jumpercan be opened to measure the current flowing into the OUT15 pin from the green LED.
This jumper must be shorted to connect the blue LED driver’s OUT15 pin to the blue LED. This jumpercan be opened to measure the current flowing into the OUT15 pin from the blue LED.

The right side of the information bar displays three LED colors representing the thermal error flag for eachTLC5944 on the EVM. In normal operation, the error flag is a solid color. When an IC detects anovertemperature condition, the colored circle turns into a burning IC. The EVM firmware latches theTLC5944 overtemperature signals to ensure that the GUI is able to read and display the error signals. TheGUI can show an error condition for 2 seconds longer than the condition actually exists on the hardware.
The right side of the information bar displays three LED colors representing the pre thermal warning flag,PTW, for each TLC5944 on the EVM. In normal operation, the error flag is a solid color. When an ICdetects a junction temperature above 120 deg, the colored circle turns into a burning IC. The EVMfirmware latches the TLC5944 PTW signals to ensure that the GUI is able to read and display the errorsignals. The GUI can show an error condition for 2 seconds longer than the condition actually exists onthe hardware. Note that the PTW does not affect device operation.
Resistors R16-R27 set a binary code that is read by the DSP at start-up. The DSP communicates thiscode to the GUI so that it knows what version of the EVM is connected and can load the proper softwareversion.
Resistors R28-R30 set a binary code that sets the default RS-232 communication frequency. Table 1shows the available settings. The default frequency is 115.2 kbps. The user can change this setting forcustom software and communication protocol development.

Each control line contains an RC impedance matching termination network. These are shown in the lowerright corner on page 4 of the schematic. These networks are not installed and are not needed when usingthe DSP board to drive the LED drivers. If the user drives the LED drivers from an external source, thesecomponents may need to be installed to provide proper impedance matching of the PCB traces and theexternal drive circuitry. Excessive ringing caused by impedance mismatch can be interpreted aslow-to-high logic level changes, causing erratic EVM behavior.
