Hello!
Well, my last post was never answered, but I'll try again with this one.
First of all, at least the main things I need to do with programming this chip are working ok.
The thing I need now is how to do a software reset. From the document, section 9.3.3 Software Reset,
2. The reserved SWRST I 2C bus address 1001 111 with the R/W bit set to 0 (write) is sent by the I 2C bus master.
3. The TLC59208F device(s) acknowledge(s) after seeing the SWRST Call address 1001 0110 (9Eh) only.
I tried different addresses as it is not clear what the real address should be, with this software reset.
It seems like I have a special software reset address, then need to send 0xA5 and 0x5A, then the board should reset, but it doesn't.
If you look at #2 above, you think this address is 7bits = 0x4F, but if you look at #3, you think it is 0x4B but then you see the incorrect
translation of 1001 0110 as (9Eh), so that throws another kink in what you think the address should be.
(1001 0110 = 96h and not 9Eh).
Can someone help me with this? I've guessed and tried various permutations but nothing is working (resetting the board).
thanks!
