PIN FUNCTION
VIN is the supply pin for the device logic. A small 1μF
ceramic bypass capacitor is required between the VIN
pin and ground near the device. The operating input
voltage range is from 2.5V to 5.5V. Whenever the
input supply falls below the under-voltage threshold
(1.8V), all the LED channels are disabled and the
device enters shutdown mode.
EN/DIM is the enable and one wire dimming input for
all LED channels. Levels of logic high and logic low
are set at 1.3V and 0.4V respectively. When EN/DIM
is initially taken high, the device becomes enabled
and all LED currents are set to the full scale according
to the resistor R_SET. To place the device into “zero
current” shutdown mode, the EN/DIM pin must be
held low for at least 1.5ms.
LED1 to LED4 provide the internal regulated current
for each of the LED cathodes. There pins enter a high
impedance zero current state whenver the device is
placed in shutdown mode.
RSET is connected to the resistor (R_SET) to set the full
scale current for the LEDs. The voltage at this pin is
regulated to 0.6V. The ground side of the external
resistor should be star connected back to the GND of
the PCB. In shutdown mode, RSET beomes high
impedance.
GND is the ground reference for the device. The pin
must be connected to the ground plane on the PCB.
TAB is the exposed pad underneath the package. For
best thermal performance, the tab should be soldered
to the PCB and connected to the ground plane.
