PRODUCTION DATA
Refer to the PDF data sheet for device specific package drawings
The LP5812 integrates LED open detection (LOD) for the fault caused by any open LED. The threshold for LOD is 90 mV when max current is set as 25.5 mA, and 180 mV when max current is set as 51 mA. To have enough detection time, LOD can only be performed when the PWM setting of this LED is above 25. If the voltage on the cathode of this LED is lower than the LOD threshold in continuously 3 cycles, LED open of this LED is reported to the corresponding LOD_status register.
The LOD flags can be cleared by writing 1h to 'lod_clear' bit in Fault_Clear register. If the LED open status is removed, the related 'lod_status' bit is set to 0 automatically.
The 'lod_action' bit in Dev_config_12 register can determine the action once open fault is detected. When the 'lod_action' bit is set to 1h, the dot where LED open happens is turned off to avoid any unpredictable issue. When the 'lod_action' bit is 0, no additional action is taken after LOD is detected. LED open fault detection and action is only executed in NORMAL state.
