Application Information
I
The following procedures illustrate how to set and adjust
output current levels. For constant brightness or analog
brightness control, go to “Brightness control using BRGT”.
Otherwise refer to “Brightness control using PWM”.
Brightness Control Using PWM
1. Set the BRGT pin to 0V.
2. Determine the maximum desired I
3. Brightness control can be implemented by pulsing a

signal at the SD pin. LED brightness is proportional to
the duty cycle (D) of the PWM signal. For linear bright-
ness control over the full duty cycle adjustment range,
the PWM frequency (f) should be limited to accommo-
date the turn-on time (T
If the PWM frequency is much less than 100Hz, flicker
may be seen in the LEDs. For the LM2794, zero duty
cycle will turn off the LEDs and a 50% duty cycle will

CHARGE PUMP OUTPUT (P
The LM2794/5 charge pump is an unregulated switched
capacitor converter with a gain of 1.5. The voltage at the
output of the pump (the P
rail can be used to deliver additional current to other circuitry.
Figure 2 shows how to connect additional LEDs to P
ballast resistor sets the current through each LED, and LED
current matching is dependent on the LED forward voltage
matching. Because of this, LEDs driven by P

cal, such as keypad backlighting.

voltage is not fixed (Li-Ion battery, for example), using a
linear regulator between the P

dropout linear regulator is a good choice for such an appli-

pump. Output resistance is a model of the switching losses
of the charge pump. Resistances of the internal charge
pump switches (MOS transistors) are a primary component
of the LM2794/5 output resistance. Typical LM2794/5 output
resistance is 3.0Ω. For worst-case design calculations, using
an output resistance of 3.5Ω is recommended. (Worst-case
recommendation accounts for parameter shifts from part-to-
part variation and applies over the full operating temperature
range).
