The new product, like Toshiba’s 9-channel output IC “TB62D786FTG,” integrates a single-wire Manchester-encoded interface. A linear regulation circuit (5V output) with up to 28V input, and daisy-chain pins for communication data are also incorporated. As a result, the extendibility of the LED driver unit is improved with only 3-wire inputs (a single power supply, data, and ground).

Also, adding communication modes, which are switched by 6- and 12-channel outputs, improves compatibility of the new 24-channel output IC with controllers.

The IC is housed in a compact package (VQFN40) with a heat dissipation pad on the back is provided, allowing downsizing of the LED unit board.

The line-up of the new product and 9-channel output products broadens the range of IC selections according to the conditions such as the number of LED lights, the size of the LED unit, the setting place of the target device.

Main Features of New Product

• Built-in single-wire interface
• Communication modes switched by 6- and 12-channel outputs
• Built-in daisy-chain pins for communication data
• Linear regulation circuit (5V output) with up to 28V input
• Compact package (VQFN40 with a heat dissipation pad on the back)
