JAJSDP6D February 2016 – March 2018 LM36274
PRODUCTION DATA.
Each current sink in the device has a separate enable input. This allows for a one-string, two-string, three-string or four-string application. Once the correct LED string configuration is programmed and a non-zero code is written to the brightness registers, the device can be enabled by writing the backlight enable bit high (register 0x08 bit[4]).
The default settings for the device are backlight enable bit set to 0, all backlight strings disabled, PWM input disabled, linear mapped mode, and the brightness level set to 30 mA per string.
When PWM is enabled, the LM36274 actively monitors the PWM input. After a non-zero PWM duty cycle is detected, the LM36274 multiplies the duty cycle with the programmed I2C brightness code to give an 11-bit brightness value between 60 µA and 30 mA. Figure 31 and Figure 32 describe the start-up timing for operation with I2C controlled current and with PWM controlled current.
The LM36274 backlight can be enabled or disabled in various ways. When disabled, the device is considered shut down, and the quiescent current drops to ISHDN. When the device is in standby, it returns to the ISTANDBY current level retaining all programmed register values. Table 1 describes the different backlight operating states for the LM36274.
