TLC5940 Overheating (Daisy Chain) ( Electronic Beer Pong Table)

runaway_pancake:
The 130mA Absolute Max is for the device in toto, just like the other items called out on page 2 there, it's not "per sink".
The sum (total) of your outputs, at any time, ought to be less than that absolute max figure, if you go beyond that then stuff starts frying.

[I'm helpful, I'm telling it like it is.]

Tie your reference on page 2 of the spec sheet with the figure directly above it on page 1. The absolute maximum IO of 130mA reference is for each of the outputs (0-15) and NOT all outputs combined. It wouldn't be much of a lighting and display solution for TI if they could only drive 16 LEDS at 7.5mA each, now would it?
