TB62779FNG
TOSHIBA Bi-CMOS Integrated Circuit Silicon Monolithic
TB62779FNG
9-Channel Constant-Current LED Driver of the 3.3-V and 5-V Power Supply Voltage Operation
The TB62779FNG is a constant-current driver designed for LED and
LED display lighting.
The TB62779FNG incorporates nine channels of seven-bit PWM
dimming controllers and constant-current drivers. Nine constant-current
drivers are divided into three blocks, each consisting of three drivers, and
the output current of each can be independently adjusted by the relevant
external resistor.
The TB62779FNG is controlled using the DATA and CLK input signals.
Up to 64 slave IDs (slave addresses) can be independently assigned to the
TB62779FNG.
Fabricated using the Bi-CMOS process, the TB62779FNG is capable of
high-speed data transfers.
The TB62779FNG operates with a supply voltage of 3.3 V or 5 V.
The TB62779FNG is RoHS (2002/95/EL) compliant.
Weight: 0.10 g (typ.)

6. Programming the TB62779FNG
The TB62779FNG can be programmed by the DATA signal on the SDA pin (pin 2) and CLK signal on the SCK pin (pin 3).
Though the specification of these signal lines is similar to that of the I2C bus, these lines are only used to program data to
the TB62779FNG and bi-directional data transfers are not performed. The TB62779FNG should basically be programmed
using one of the following formats: (1) Serial Packet Format in Normal Programming Mode or (2) Serial Packet Format in
Special Mode 1.

IOUT(Data1)
Note: As shown in the above timing diagram, output data changes to 1 when the PWM counter reaches its terminal count
after the Period condition is shifted in. Therefore, even after the P condition, the next packet should not be shifted in
before the PWM counter reaches its terminal count. Otherwise, the data programmed before the P condition is
overwritten with the next data. After the P condition, an interval of about 3.0 ms (128 PWM cycles) is required before
shifting in the next packet.
2) Serial Packet Format in Special Mode 1
When the sub-address is specified to 1000XXXX, all the channels are selected in order. Make sure that data for all nine
channels are provided.
(If data for more than nine channels are provided, the 10th and subsequent data are treated as invalid. If data for less than
nine channels are provided, those data are written to the channels in order and the remaining channels retain the previous
data.)
To put the TB62779FNG back into Normal mode, a Start condition should be transmitted first.
In Special Mode 1, the sub address is set with a value of 8 x slave instruction/IC.

7. Power-ON Reset (POR)
The POR circuitry resets all the internal data to the default values upon powering up the TB62779FNG in order
to ensure proper device operation.
The POR circuitry is only activated when Vcc rises from 0 V. To reactivate POR, Vcc must be powered down to 0 V.
The internal data hold voltage is guaranteed after Vcc has once reached or exceeded 3.0 V.

8. Thermal Shutdown (TSD)
When the die temperature reaches 150°C, the thermal shutdown circuit is tripped, switching the constant-current
outputs to off.
The constant-current outputs are automatically turned on when the temperature cools past the shutdown threshold.
TSD trip temperature: 150°C to 170°C
TSD recovery temperature: 30°C below the TSD trip temperature

9. Points to Note when Setting Up the TB62779FNG
1.
External resistors for specifying the LED driving current (Rext-R, Rext-G, Rext-B)
External resistors should be separately connected to the Rext-R, Rext-G and Rext-B pins. Three resistors must not be
collectively connected to a single pin.
2.
External resistors for ID configuration
The total resistance value of three external resistors used for specifying a device ID (which are connected between
Vcc and GND) should be about 30 kΩ or lower.
(A recommended value will be clearly defined after the TB62779FNG is completed.)
3.
ID configuration sequence
ID configuration can be performed after POR is released upon powering on. However, to avoid false operation of the
ID configuration, transient input signals of less than two clock cycles of the reference clock for the internal oscillator
are not accepted.

Care should be taken during the period between the POR released timing

IC Usage Considerations
Notes on handling of ICs
(1)
The absolute maximum ratings of a semiconductor device are a set of ratings that must not be
exceeded, even for a moment. Do not exceed any of these ratings.
Exceeding the rating(s) may cause breakdown, damage or deterioration of the device, and may result
in injury by explosion or combustion.
(2)
Use an appropriate power supply fuse to ensure that a large current does not continuously flow in the
event of over current and/or IC failure. The IC will fully break down when used under conditions that
exceed its absolute maximum ratings, when the wiring is routed improperly, or when an abnormal
pulse noise occurs from the wiring or load, causing a large current to continuously flow. Such a
breakdown can lead to smoke or ignition. To minimize effects of a large current flow in the event of
breakdown, fuse capacity, fusing time, insertion circuit location, and other such suitable settings are
required.
(3)
If your design includes an inductive load such as a motor coil, incorporate a protection circuit into the
design to prevent device malfunction or breakdown caused by the current caused by inrush current at
power ON or the negative current caused by the back electromotive force at power OFF. IC
breakdown may cause injury, smoke or ignition.
For ICs with built-in protection functions, use a stable power supply. An unstable power supply may
cause the protection function to not operate, causing IC breakdown. IC breakdown may cause injury,
smoke or ignition.
(4)
Do not insert devices incorrectly or in the wrong orientation.
Make sure that the positive and negative terminals of power supplies are connected properly.
Otherwise, the current or power consumption may exceed the absolute maximum rating, and
exceeding the rating(s) may cause breakdown, damage or deterioration of the device, which may
result in injury by explosion or combustion.
In addition, do not use any device that has had current applied to it while inserted incorrectly or in
the wrong orientation even once.
(5)
Carefully select power amp, regulator, or other external components (such as inputs and negative
feedback capacitors) and load components (such as speakers),.
If there is a large amount of leakage current such as input or negative feedback capacitors, the IC
output DC voltage will increase. If this output voltage is connected to a speaker with low input
withstand voltage, overcurrent or IC failure can cause smoke or ignition. (The over current can cause
smoke or ignition from the IC itself.) In particular, please pay attention when using a Bridge Tied
Load (BTL) connection type IC that inputs output DC voltage to a speaker directly.
Points to remember on handling of ICs
(1)
Heat Dissipation Design
In using an IC with large current flow such as a power amp, regulator or driver, please design the
device so that heat is appropriately radiated, not to exceed the specified junction temperature (Tj) at
any time or under any condition. These ICs generate heat even during normal use. An inadequate IC
heat dissipation design can lead to decrease in IC life, deterioration of IC characteristics or IC
breakdown. In addition, please design the device taking into consideration the effect of IC heat
dissipation on peripheral components.
(2)
Back-EMF
When a motor rotates in the reverse direction, stops, or slows down abruptly, a current flows back to
the motor’s power supply due to the effect of back-EMF. If the current sink capability of the power
supply is small, the device’s motor power supply and output pins might be exposed to conditions
beyond maximum ratings. To avoid this problem, take the effect of back-EMF into consideration in
your system design.
