TLC5940 code on TLC5951

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TLC5951, TLC5940

Hello E2E,

I am working with a customer who has done a lot of prototyping using the TLC5940.  They have code working for that chip from an arduino.  However, they actually need to use 8 RGB leds so they are moving towards the TLC5951.  

The TLC5951 uses 7 comunication pins compared to the 5 on the TLC5940.  Would their existing code still drive a TLC5951?  

Thanks for the help!

Regards,

Russell
