APPLICATIONS INFORMATION Programming LED Current Using a DC Voltage
The feedback resistor (R1 in Figure 1) and the sense volt- For some applications, the preferred method of brightness age (VIN - VLED) control the LED current. control is a variable DC voltage to adjust the LED current. The CTRL pin voltage can be modulated to set the dim- V − V I IN LED ming of the LED string. As the voltage on the CTRL pin LED = R1 increases from 0V to 1.5V, the LED current increases from 0 to I The CTRL pin controls the sense reference voltage as LED. As the CTRL pin voltage increases beyond 1.5V, it has no effect on the LED current. shown in the Typical Performance Characteristics. For CTRL higher than 1.5V, the sense reference is 200mV, The LED current can be set by: which results in full LED current. In order to have accu- rate LED current, precision resistors are preferred (1% ILED = 200mV ,when V R1 CTRL > 1.5V is recommended). The formula and table for R1 selection are shown below.
