7.3.2.3 Individual 8-bit Dot Current (DC) Setting

The LP5868T can individually adjust the output current of each LED by using dot current function through DC setting. The device allows the brightness deviations of the LEDs to adjusted be individually. Each output DC is programmed with an 8-bit depth, so the value can be adjusted with 256 steps within the range from 0% to 100% of (IOUT_MAX × CC/127).

Table 7-3 Individual 8-bit Dot Current (DC) Setting
8-BIT DC REGISTER RATIO OF OUTPUT CURRENT TO IOUT_MAX × CC/127
Binary Decimal %
0000 0000 0 0
0000 0001 1 0.39
0000 0010 2 0.78

1111 1101 253 99.2
1111 1110 254 99.6
1111 1111 255 100

In summary, the current gain of each current sink can be calculated as below:

Equation 3. IOUT (mA) = IOUT_MAX × (CC/127) × (DC/255)

For time-multiplexing scan scheme, if the scan number is N, each LED dot's average current IAVG is shown as below:

Equation 4. IAVG (mA) = IOUT/N = IOUT_MAX × (CC/127) × (DC/255)/N
