PIN DESCRIPTIONS
VIN is the supply pin for the device. The supply input
current needed for normal operation is approximately
2 mA plus 3 times I_RSET pin current. During intervals of
PWM dimming, or whenever the converter is not
switching, the supply current will decrease by around
1 mA. The voltage applied at VIN should be kept
between 3 V and 5.5 V. A small ceramic bypass
capacitor of 0.1 μF or greater is recommended to be
in close proximity to the VIN pin.
EN/PWM is the device Enable and PWM dimming
control input for all LED channels. Guaranteed levels
of logic high and logic low are set at 1.3 V and 0.4 V
respectively. During normal PWM dimming, the entire
device remains fully biased and only the LED
channels are pulsed on/off. The device will only enter
zero current shutdown mode after the EN/PWM is
help low for at least 5 ms typically. This pin has an
internal pull-down resistor of 200 kΩ.
RSET is the voltage regulated control pin for sensing
the desired programming current level to be applied
on all LED channels. During normal operation, the
RSET pin is kept at 1.2 V and accurately monitors the
current level in the externally applied R1 resistor. The
current transfer ratio from RSET pin current to LED
pin current is 100.
LED1 to LED4 provide the regulated current source
for driving each of the LED strings with a tightly
matched constant current. To ensure optimal
performance, the bias voltage on the LED channels
should be set at a nominal 0.6 V or higher. Each
channel is capable of driving a current up to 175 mA.
All channels immediately enter a high impedance
mode whenever the EN/PWM is taken LOW.
CTRL pin is a multiplexer output which selects the
lowest operating voltage appearing on any of the four
LED output drive channels. This control signal
represents the cathode terminal voltage of the LED
string with greatest forward voltage (V_F). An external
resistor network from CTRL to FB can be used to set
the lowest operating voltage of each channel. External
current loading of the CTRL pin is recommended to be
less than 25 μA.
FB is the voltage feedback control pin for the internal
high power DC/DC converter. This pin has a high
impedance input and its voltage remains accurately
regulated to 0.3 V during normal steady state
operation
