9.3.2 PWM Control

The device features four independent PWM-bank dimming-control pins, each of which controls one bank consisting of two channels. A PWM input can also function as a shutdown pin for an unused bank. Tying PWM to ground disables the corresponding outputs. The PWM signal has a precise threshold, which a designer can use to define the start-up voltage of an LED as an undervoltage-lockout (UVLO) function with a divider resistor from SUPPLY. Table 1 shows the PWM bank mapping.
