BL8589
16-Channel Constant-Current LED Driver
DESCRIPTION
The BL8589 is designed for LED display
applications. The device has an input shift
register with corresponding data latches and
16 constant current sink drivers.
The device support digital input with internal
shift registers and latches, hence can be
controlled directly by microprocessor-based
systems. With a standard 3.3V or 5V logic
supply, serial data input rates can reach up to
30 MHz. The BL8589 allows user defined
maximum LED drive current level which is set
by a single external resistor. Chip build-in
serial data output permits cascading of multiple
devices in applications requiring additional
drive lines.
The BL8589 is available in a variety of 24-
terminal packages: QFN44-24, which has an
exposed thermal pad, SSOP-24 and TSSOP-
24. All packages are lead (Pb) free and RoHS
compliable.
