2005-1 or Fm+ I C-bus development board. This daughter board makes it easy to test and design with the PCA9955A/B, a 16-channel Fast-mode Plus (Fm+) 57 mA constant current and outputs allow up to 20 V for LED supply. This demo board, along with the Win-I2CUSB Lite GUI...
PCA9955A/B demonstration board OM13483 1. Introduction The PCA9955A/B evaluation board features LEDs for color mixing, blinking and dimming demonstrations. A graphical interface allows the user to explore the different functions of the driver easily. The board can be connected in series with other I C demo-boards to create an evaluation system.
1, connect the OM13483 board to the I2C demo board 2005-1 before connecting the USB cable. Once the board is connected, connect the USB cable and start the Win-I2CUSB Lite software. You are now ready to evaluate the PCA9955A/B. UM10729 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers.
Connect the OM13483 board to the Win-I2CUSB board before connecting the USB cable. Once the board is connected, connect the USB cable and start the Win-I2CUSB Lite software. You are now ready to evaluate the PCA9955A/B. Fig 3.
