MBI5028 analog

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TLC5927, TLC5926, TLC59281, TLC59282, TLC5928, TLC59025, TLC5929

Hello. Which is produced by TI LED drivers can be produced to replace Mocroblok MBI5028 LED driver? Thank you.

  • Egidijus,

    There are several TI alternatives to the MBI5028.  The electrical specifications for the TI parts are slightly different from Macroblock, but the pinouts are compatible.

    TI Alternatives:

    TLC5926 or TLC5927 - closest match.  High current per LED channel, similar 'special modes', similar channel to channel and IC to IC current matching.

    TLC5928, TLC59281, or TLC59282 - same pinout, but lower output current levels, faster switching speeds, no special modes.

     

    Best regards,

    John

  • Hello .

    Do you  know if  TLC59281 TLC59282 have temperature shutdown. I was not able to find this information in the datasheet?

    For TLC59025/TLC5926 / TLC5927 there is overtemperature shutdown at 175C


    Does it mean that for TLC59281/ TLC59282 there is no any temperature protection?

  • Oleksiy,

    You are correct.  The TLC59281 and TLC59282 do not have thermal protection.  TLC5928 is pin to pin compatible and includes a thermal warning flag, but not shutdown.  The TLC5929, also pin compatible, includes thermal warning, thermal shutdown and many other protection features.

    I am attaching a pinout comparison picture and summary table for your reference.

    Regards,

    John
