3.3.2 GUI Functions
3.3.2.1 Global Setting
When all the LED outputs are inactive, the LP50xx device is able to enter power-save mode automatically,
thus lowering idle-current consumption down to 10 μA (typical). The automatic power-save mode is
enabled when register bit Power_Save_EN = 1 (default) and all the LEDs are off for a duration of > 30 ms.
Almost all analog blocks are powered down in power-save mode. If any I2C command to the device
occurs, the LP50xx device returns to the NORMAL mode. Set the Power Saver switch to activate the
function (see Figure 8).

3.3.2.2 RGB LED Color and Intensity Control
Each output channel has its own individual 8-bit color-setting register (OUTx_COLOR). The device allows
every RGB LED module to achieve > 16 million (256 × 256 × 256) color-mixing. When color is fixed, the
independent intensity control, formerly called brightness control, is used to achieve accurate and flexible
dimming control for every RGB LED module. Every three consecutive output channels are assigned to
their respective intensity-control register (LEDx_BRIGHTNESS). The LP50xx device allows 256-step
intensity control for each RGB LED module, which helps achieve a smooth dimming effect. For human-
eye-friendly visual performance, a logarithmic-scale dimming curve is usually implemented in LED drivers.
The LP50xx device, with independent color-mixing and intensity-control registers, implements the
logarithmic scale dimming control inside the intensity control function, which solves the color distortion
issue effectively. Also, the LP50xx device allows users to configure the dimming scale either
logarithmically or linearly through the global Log_Scale_EN register. Click the Manage button, shown in
Figure 10. to set the color and brightness.
Figure 10. LED Color and Brightness Setting
3.3.2.3 Bank Management
For most LED-animation effects, like blinking and breathing, all the RGB LEDs have the same lighting
pattern. Instead of controlling the individual LED separately, which occupies the microcontroller resources
heavily, the LP50xx device provides an easy coding approach, the LED bank control. Each channel can
be configured as either independent control or bank control through the LEDx_Bank_EN register. When
LEDx_Bank_EN = 0 (default), the LED is controlled independently by the related color-mixing and
intensity-control registers. When LEDx_Bank_EN = 1, the LP50xx device drives the LED in LED bank-
control mode. The LED bank has its own independent PWM control scheme, which is the same structure
as the PWM scheme of each channel. See the register map Figure 14 for more details. When a channel is
configured in LED bank-control mode, the related color mixing and intensity control is governed by the
bank control registers (BANK_A_COLOR, BANK_B_COLOR, BANK_C_COLOR, and
BANK_BRIGHTNESS) regardless of the inputs on its own color-mixing and intensity-control registers.

3.3.4 Register Map
The register view appears when the Register icon in Figure 14 is clicked. The register view provides the
register values, field values, and descriptions. The registers can be operated directly through the input
check box.
Figure 14. Register Map
Enter the desired hex value in the registers (Value column), perform a bit-wise configuration of any
register fields by double-clicking on the corresponding register bit, or configure a register field by entering
the desired value as hex in the Value column, binary in the Bits columns, or by using the input boxes for
each field under FIELD VIEW to set values for the corresponding variables. Field View displays the
description of all fields of the selected register. Each register can be read independently or all registers
can be read at once by using the Read Register or Read All Registers button, respectively. The data is
written to the registers in one of two ways, depending on the update mode (Immediateor Deferred)
button. Clicking the button toggles between the two modes. In Immediate mode, the register data is written
immediately following a Current Value , an individual bit, or a Value change. In Deferred mode, the
displayed data is written to all registers on depression of the Write Register button. Press the Read All
Registers button to read back all the registers and update the values in this table. If any register value
must be changed, simply double-click on the individual bit values to change the value in this table in
immediate updated mode or press the Write Register button to write all the registers at a time if Deferred
is selected instead of Immediate from the drop-down box. Register settings can be saved in text-file format
by selecting Save Registers from the file menu. A register settings file in text-file format can be loaded and
programmed automatically by selecting Load Register from the file menu.

4.1 EVMS ARE NOT FOR USE IN FUNCTIONAL SAFETY AND/OR SAFETY CRITICAL EVALUATIONS, INCLUDING BUT NOT
LIMITED TO EVALUATIONS OF LIFE SUPPORT APPLICATIONS.
4.2 User must read and apply the user guide and other available documentation provided by TI regarding the EVM prior to handling
or using the EVM, including without limitation any warning or restriction notices. The notices contain important safety information
related to, for example, temperatures and voltages.
4.3 Safety-Related Warnings and Restrictions:
4.3.1 User shall operate the EVM within TI’s recommended specifications and environmental considerations stated in the user
guide, other available documentation provided by TI, and any other applicable requirements and employ reasonable and
customary safeguards. Exceeding the specified performance ratings and specifications (including but not limited to input
and output voltage, current, power, and environmental ranges) for the EVM may cause personal injury or death, or
property damage. If there are questions concerning performance ratings and specifications, User should contact a TI
field representative prior to connecting interface electronics including input power and intended loads. Any loads applied
outside of the specified output range may also result in unintended and/or inaccurate operation and/or possible
permanent damage to the EVM and/or interface electronics. Please consult the EVM user guide prior to connecting any
load to the EVM output. If there is uncertainty as to the load specification, please contact a TI field representative.
During normal operation, even with the inputs and outputs kept within the specified allowable ranges, some circuit
components may have elevated case temperatures. These components include but are not limited to linear regulators,
switching transistors, pass transistors, current sense resistors, and heat sinks, which can be identified using the
information in the associated documentation. When working with the EVM, please be aware that the EVM may become
very warm.
