GUI Function
This section describes the details of the TLC6C5712-Q1 EVM GUI. The GUI has two configuration levels:
one is a high-level configuration, the other is a low-level configuration. In the high-level configuration, two
tabs are included which are for the general function and advanced function. Low-level configuration
describes all the TLC6C5712-Q1 registers. The following sections introduce the details of the functions.
5.1
General
shows the general tab of TLC6C5712-Q1 EVM GUI. In this page, users can easily change the
register values.
Figure 4. TLC6C5712-Q1 EVM GUI
The general tab is divided into four parts.
shows the register control of CH ON MASK, PWM MAP
MASK, SHORT GND MASK, LED SHORT MASK, OPEN FAULT MASK, and DOT CORRECTION
SETTING.
The LEDs can be turned on by clicking the
CH ON MASK
button. The word on the button shows the value
sent to the register. When the button displays
OFF
, the value of the CH ON MASK is 1 which means the
LED is masked and the output is turned off. When the button displays
ON
, the value of the CH ON MASK
is 0 which means the LED is not masked and the output is turned on.
The PWM MAP MASK is used to map the PWM control for each channel. When driving the EVM using the
USB2ANY board, only three PWM outputs available: PWM0, PWM1, and PWM2. These outputs can be
controlled by the sliders in
. The PWM3, PWM4 and PWM5 are connected to the GND of
USB2ANY.
The SHORT GND MASK, LED SHORT MASK, and OPEN FAULT MASK are used to control the fault
mask. A setting of 1 indicates that the fault is masked. A setting of 0 indicates that the fault is not masked.
When the fault is unmasked, the fault will be reported to the open and short registers in the status register.
SHORT GND MASK and LED SHORT MASK correspond with the status of the short register shown in
. OPEN FAULT MASK corresponds with the status of the open register shown in
.
