STP08CL596M

Overview

The STP08CL596M is an LED driver IC manufactured by STMicroelectronics, designed for linear current regulation in display applications. It features eight output channels capable of delivering up to 90mA per channel. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 3V to 3.6V and supports a maximum output voltage of 16V. It integrates an internal shift register topology with a clock frequency of 25MHz. The component is housed in a 16-TSSOP surface-mount package and is rated for an operating temperature range of -40°C to 125°C.

Feature Summary

• Integrates an 8-bit serial-in parallel-out shift register for data handling
• Provides regulated constant current outputs for LED driving
• Supports high-speed serial data transmission via internal clocking

Applications

• LED panel displays
• Visual indicator systems
• Consumer electronics lighting control

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'M' against official documentation, as it typically denotes tube packaging distinct from the 'TTR' tape-and-reel variant. Confirm availability status, as this part number may be obsolete or discontinued. Ensure the selected package matches the required PCB footprint and thermal management strategy for the target application design.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing low-voltage LED drivers requiring integrated shift register functionality. It is suitable for systems interfacing with 3.3V microcontrollers due to its compatible supply voltage range. Consider the 16-TSSOP package constraints for thermal dissipation and board space. Verify that the 90mA output current meets the specific LED array requirements without external heat sinking solutions.

Part Context

This device belongs to the STP08CL596 family of LED display drivers from STMicroelectronics. It serves as a specialized interface solution for managing multiple LED segments in compact form factors. The family is characterized by linear regulation and serial input capabilities, targeting cost-sensitive visual display applications where integrated control and drive functions are preferred over discrete components.
