12-channel shift-register LED driver for indicator and display backlighting
The TLC6C5912PWR is a linear LED driver from Texas Instruments that integrates a 12-bit shift register and latch, allowing daisy-chain control of multiple devices from a single microcontroller SPI-compatible bus — useful for driving discrete indicator LEDs, segmented displays, or low-current backlight strings where per-channel PWM is handled externally. Each of the 12 outputs sinks up to 50 mA at a maximum output voltage of 40 V, which means a single driver can power a string of series-connected LEDs from a 24 V or 36 V rail without an external boost stage — the internal switch handles the compliance.
Industrial temperature grade and TSSOP package for dense PCB integration
Housed in a 20-TSSOP (4.40 mm width) surface-mount package, the 0.65 mm pin pitch allows routing on a standard 2-layer PCB with 8/8 mil trace/space rules — no need for blind vias or microvias.
Active lifecycle and compliance documentation
ROHS3 compliant, with no halogen or lead restrictions beyond the Exemption 7c-IV lead-in-glass allowance. The standard TI compliance package includes REACH SVHC declaration and material declaration per IEC 62474.
Sourcing and quoting for volume requirements
Sourced through independent distribution channels with full lot traceability.
