Application Notes
Programming Example:
Dim LEDs 0 to 7 at 1 Hz at 25% duty cycle
Dim LEDs 8 to 12 at 5 Hz at 50% duty cycle
Set LEDs 13, 14 and 15 off
Step 1: Set PSC0 to achieve DIM0 of 1s
Step 2: Set PWM0 duty cycle to 25%
Step 3: Set PSC1 to achieve DIM1 of 0.2s
Step 4: Set PWM1 duty cycle to 50%
Step 5: Set LEDs 13, 14 and 15 off by loading the data into LS3 register
Step 6: Set LEDs 0 to 7 to point to DIM0
Step 7: Set LEDs 8 to 12 to point to DIM1
REDUCING I
In many applications, the LEDs and the LP3943 share the
same V
When the LEDs are off, the LED pins are at a lower potential
Step
DD
, as shown in Section Typical Application Circuit.
Q
Set DIM0 = 1s
1 = (PSC0 + 1)/160
PSC0 = 159
Set duty cycle to 25%
Duty Cycle = PWM0/256
PWM0 = 64
Set DIM1 = 0.2s
0.2 = (PSC1 + 1)/160
PSC1 = 31
Set duty cycle to 50%
Duty Cycle = PWM1/256
PWM1 = 128
LEDs 13, 14 and 15 off
Output = HIGH
LEDs 0 to 7
Output = DIM0
LEDs 8 to 12
Output = DIM1
