KTD2052 12-Channel RGB LED Drivers

Kinetic Technologies KTD2052 12-Channel RGB LED Drivers are a fully programmable current regulator for up to four RGB LEDs (12 LEDs total). The device is ideally powered from a supply rail in the 3V to 5V nominal range. A 4-wire bus is multiplexed to reduce the pin-count and PCB traces to the LEDs. Each pin on the bus integrates a switch to the input voltage and a programmable low-dropout current sink regulator. The I²C control interface is used to set the on/off status and individual LED currents and adjust the fade rate. An internal flexible pattern generator with a watchdog counter enables set-and-forget pattern executions, while more complex patterns may be executed via the I²C interface from system firmware.
