Texas Instruments LP5891/LP5891-Q1 48×16 LED Matrix Driver

Texas Instruments LP5891/LP5891-Q1 48×16 LED Matrix Driver is a highly integrated, common-cathode LED matrix driver with 48 constant current sources and 16 scanning FETs. The device implements a high-speed rising-edge transmission interface to support a high device count daisy-chained while minimizing electrical-magnetic interference (EMI) and internal GCLK rate ranges from 40MHz to 160MHz. The  LP5891/LP5891-Q1 implements LED open/weak-short/short detections and removals during operations. The Texas Instruments LP5891-Q1 devices are AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive applications.
