TCA6507: One Shot mode

I am not sure how the one shot mode is working in TCA6507.

1. Can I set a single LED in bank0 to one-shot mode and the rest of them in normal mode?

2. According to the description the LED start at the region defined and then PWM0 disconnects from the ouput.

Is it going to repeat this in the next cycle?

hello Kostas,

I do believe it will repeat in the next cycle. I may have to look into this a bit more, but in the mean time have you looked at the "Programming Fun Lights with TI TCA6507"? It is a good reference, see link below.

Thank you for your answer. Thanks for the document. I looked at it and it's helpful.

The one-shot mode sounds appropriate for what I want to do. The documentation is not very clear about this mode, though and I wanted to clarify how it's working.

Best,

Kostas
