I have tlc5943 that I want to use for high current led .

this device can take 50mA.

can I use MOSFET to have more current capability?

like connect the gate of MOSFET to the output of tlc5943 and this way drive led Strip at high current that it needs?

Hi,

I suggest you use BJT amplifiers.

How much current do you need? You can also take a look about TPS54200.
