Connector J1 or TP1 to TP4 connect the signals BLANK (pin 7 or TP4), SIN (pin 10 or TP3), SCLK (pin 9 or TP2), LAT (pin 8 or TP1), and GND (pin 6 or TP10). 5.2 Equipment Setup Figure 2 shows the basic test set up recommended to evaluate the TLC59282 EVM. Note that although the return for J5 and J6 are the same system ground, the connections should remain separate as shown in Figure 2. 5.2.1 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 6 Procedure Working at an ESD workstation, make sure that any wrist straps, bootstraps, or mats are connected referencing the user to earth ground before power is applied to the EVM. Wear electrostatic smock and safety glasses. Before connecting the DC input sources, VCC and VLED, limit the source currents. Set VCC and VLED to 0 V, initially, and connect as shown in Figure 2. Place a jumper on J7 to the desired forward current. R5 personalizes the needed current, according to Equation 1 in Section 4.2. Do not use the connection to R5 as long as there is no resistor populated. Connect the DC power supplies, VCC and VLED, to the EVM as shown in Figure 2. Connect the pattern generator or MCU to the EVM as shown in Figure 2. Make sure the pattern generator or MCU is loaded with the EVM control software and the I/O levels are compatible with the TLC59282 VCC supply. Example: if VCC = 3.3 V, then interface 3.3-V I/O’s to the EVM board. Using the timing diagram (Figure 9, TLC59282 (SBVS152) datasheet) as a guide, load the TLC59282 registers and control the outputs as desired.
