Terminal Functions

TERMINAL TYPE DESCRIPTION
NUMBER NAME
A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, B3, LEDAx A LED Bank A Current Sink Terminal. If unused, this terminal may be left floating.
A4, A5, A6, B4, B5, B6 LEDBx A LED Bank A Current Sink Terminal. If unused, this terminal may be left floating.
C1 FB_A A Feedback terminal for the Bank A Boost Converter.
C2 PWM/INT I Dual function terminal. When BRTMODE = 00, 10, or 11, this is a PWM input terminal. When BRTMODE = 01, this terminal is a programmable interrupt terminal. In this mode, this is an open drain output that pulls low when a fault condition occurs.
C3, C4, D3, D4 GND G Ground for analog and digital blocks. These terminals should be connected to a noise-free GND plane if possible (separate plane than GND_SW_x terminals).
C5 EN/VDDIO I Backlight Enable terminal and VDDIO power terminal + reference terminal for I2C communication. This terminal should be connected to IO voltage with low impedance route to avoid voltage ripple on this terminal.
C6 FB_B A Feedback terminal for the Bank B Boost Converter.
D1, E1, F1 SW_A A Bank A Boost Converter Switch
D2, E2, F2 GND_SW_A G Bank A Boost Converter Switch Ground. These terminals can be connected to noisy GND due to high current spikes.
D5, E5, F5 GND_SW_B G Bank B Boost Converter Switch Ground. These terminals can be connected to noisy GND due to high current spikes.
D6, E6, F6 SW_B A Bank B Boost Converter Switch
E3 FSET/SDA I/O/A Dual Function terminal. When I2C is not used (for example, BRTMODE = 00), this terminal can be used to set the boost switching frequency and/or LED PWM frequency by connecting a resistor between the terminal and a ground reference. When I2C is used (for example, BRTMODE = 01, 10, or 11), this terminal is connected to a SDA line of an I2C bus.
E4 ISET/SCL I/A Dual Function terminal. When I2C is not used (for example, if BRTMODE=00), this terminal can be used to set the full-scale LED current by connecting a resistor between the terminal and a ground reference. When I2C is used (for example, BRTMODE = 01, 10, or 11), this terminal is connected to a SCL line of an I2C bus.
F3 VLDO P Internal LDO Output terminal. CVLDO bypass capacitor must be connected between this terminal and ground.
F4 VDD P Device power supply terminal. Provide 2.7-V to 20-V supply to this terminal. This terminal is an input of the internal LDO regulator. The output of the internal LDO powers the device blocks.
