7.2.2.1 Reducing IQ When LEDs are OFF

In many applications, the LEDs and the LP3943 share the same VDD, as shown in Figure 7-1. When the LEDs are off, the LED pins are at a lower potential than VDD, causing extra supply current (ΔIQ). To minimize this current, consider keeping the LED pins at a voltage equal to or greater than VDD.
