JAJS453E November 2007 – April 2019 TPS61165
PRODUCTION DATA.
The TPS61165 features two dimming modes: PWM dimming and EasyScale one-wire digital dimming.
The CTRL pin is used for the control input for both dimming modes, PWM dimming and the 1 wire dimming. The dimming mode for the TPS61165 is selected each time the device is enabled. The default dimming mode is PWM dimming. To enter 1 wire mode, the following digital pattern on the CTRL pin must be recognized by the device every time the device starts from the shutdown mode.
The device immediately enters the one-wire mode once the preceding three conditions are met. The EasyScale communication can start before the detection window expires. Once the dimming mode is programmed, it can not be changed without another start up. This means the device needs to be shutdown by pulling the CTRL low for 2.5 ms and restarts. See Figure 9 for a graphical explanation.
