LP5562

Component/Hub

Section titled “Component/Hub”

The LP5562 component represents a Texas Instruments LP5562 4-channel (RGBW) LED driver (datasheet) in ESPHome. It uses I²C Bus for communication.

To use the channels of this component, you first need to set up the global lp5562 chip with an id, and then define the individual output channels.

# Minimalistic configuration entry, single chip, single output
lp5562:
  id: lp5562_1


# Individual outputs
output:
  - platform: lp5562
    id: lp5562_1_white
    lp5562_id: lp5562_1
    channel: white

Configuration Variables

Section titled “Configuration Variables”

  • address (Optional, int): The I²C address of the driver. Defaults to 0x30.

  • id (Optional, ID): The id to use for this lp5562 component. Use this if you have multiple LP5562s connected at the same time.

  • logarithmic_dimming (Optional, boolean): Use the chip’s logarithmic brightness curve instead of a linear one, so brightness steps look even to the eye. A light on these outputs then needs gamma_correct: 1.0, or both curves apply. Defaults to false.

LP5562 Output

Section titled “LP5562 Output”

The LP5562 output component exposes an LP5562 PWM channel of a global LP5562 chip as a float output.

# Complete example configuration entry for 1 driver and 4 outputs
lp5562:
  - address: 0x30
    id: lp5562_1


# Individual outputs
output:
  - platform: lp5562
    id: 'lp5562_1_red'
    channel: red
    lp5562_id: 'lp5562_1'
  - platform: lp5562
    id: 'lp5562_1_green'
    channel: green
    lp5562_id: 'lp5562_1'
  - platform: lp5562
    id: 'lp5562_1_blue'
    channel: blue
    lp5562_id: 'lp5562_1'
  - platform: lp5562
    id: 'lp5562_1_white'
    channel: white
    lp5562_id: 'lp5562_1'


# Sample use as an RGBW light
light:
  - platform: rgbw
    name: "Sample RGBW light"
    red: lp5562_1_red
    green: lp5562_1_green
    blue: lp5562_1_blue
    white: lp5562_1_white

Configuration Variables

Section titled “Configuration Variables”

  • id (Required, ID): The id to use for this output component.

  • channel (Required, string): Choose the channel of the LP5562 for this output component. One of red, green, blue, white.

  • current (Optional, current): The maximum LED current of this channel at full brightness, from 0mA to 25.5mA in steps of 0.1mA. Check the LED’s rating before raising it. Defaults to 17.5mA.

  • lp5562_id (Optional, ID): Manually specify the ID of the LP5562 chip. Use this if you have multiple LP5562s you want to use at the same time.

  • All other options from Output.
