The power-save mode (PSM) is enabled by setting PSM_EN to 1 in function-control register 2 (see FC2 in
Table
2-3). After power on, the default value of this bit is 0. When this function is enabled (PSM_EN = 1),
if all the grayscale (GS) data received for the next frame are 0, then the device enters power-save mode
at the moment the VSYNC command is input.
When operating in the power-save mode, the device continuously detects whether non-zero GS data is
input for the next frame. Among all the GS data for the next frame, if any non-zero data is detected, the
device resumes normal mode once finishing the whole GS input for the next frame.

shows the timing diagram of the power-save mode of operation.

2.3.5 Thermal Shutdown (TSD)

The thermal shutdown (TSD) function turns off all device constant-current outputs when the junction
temperature (T
) exceeds 170°C (typical). It resumes normal operation when T

2.3.6 IREF Resistor Short Protection (ISP)

The IREF-resistor short-protection (ISP) function prevents unwanted large currents from flowing though
the constant-current output when the IREF resistor is shorted accidentally. The TLC694x device turns off
all output channels when the IREF pin voltage is lower than 0.19 V (typical). When the IREF pin voltage
goes higher than 0.325 V (typical), the TLC694x device resumes normal operation.

If all the GS data written during this period are 0, the
device enters the power-save mode at the falling edge
of the VSYNC command pulse on the LAT signal.
