Toshiba
Corporation (TOKYO:6502) today announced that it has launched an LED
driver for LED display and illumination equipment that can illuminate 8
RGB-LEDs with a single IC. Samples are available now and mass production
is scheduled for March 2013.

The new product, TB62D612FTG, supports common anode LED control systems
and is embedded with a 7-bit PWM gray controller and a 24ch
constant-current driver. The constant-current circuit is divided into 3
blocks of 8chs. The electric current of each block can be configured
individually by an external resistor, making it ideal for driving
RGB-LEDs. Additionally, the address of the driver IC can be set with 3
ID terminals and up to 64 ICs can be controlled individually. PWM gray
level and address selection is configured by an address control
interface, supporting simpler wiring that saves space on the circuit
board. A Toshiba developed circuit to counteract aerial discharge is
used to improve noise characteristics.
