Adaptive Voltage Control

The LP886xC-Q1 DC/DC converter generates the supply voltage for the LEDs. During normal operation, boost output voltage is adjusted automatically based on the LED cathode (OUTx pin) voltages. This is called adaptive boost control. Only the active LED outputs are monitored to control the adaptive boost voltage. Any LED strings with open or short faults are removed from the adaptive voltage control loop. The OUTx pin voltages are periodically monitored by the control loop. The boost voltage is raised if any of the OUTx voltage falls below the VLOW_COMP threshold. The boost voltage is also lowered if all OUTx voltages are higher than VLOW_COMP threshold. The boost voltage keeps unchanged when one of OUTx voltage touches the VLOW_COMP threshold. In normal operation, the lowest voltage among the OUTx pins is around VLOW_COMP, and boost voltage stays constant. VLOW_COMP level is the minimum voltage which could guarantee proper LED current sink operation. See Figure 10 for how the boost voltage automatically scales based on the OUT1-4 pin voltage.
