7.3.2 Analog Dimming (Current Gain Control)

Analog dimming of LP5866 is achieved by configuring the current gain control. There are several methods to control the current gain of each LED.

  • Global 3-bits Maximum Current (MC) setting without external resistor
  • 3 groups of 7-bits Color Current (CC) setting
  • Individual 8-bit Dot Current (DC) setting
Global 3-Bits Maximum Current (MC) Setting

The MC is used to set the maximum current IOUT_MAX for each current sink and this current is the maximum peak current for each LED dot. The MC can be set with 3 bits (8 steps) from 3 mA to 50 mA. When the device is powered on, the MC data is set to default value, which is 15 mA.

For data refresh Mode 1, MC data is effective immediately after new data is updated. For Mode 2 and Mode 3, to avoid unexpected MC data change during high speed data refreshing, MC data must be changed when all channels are off and new MC data is only be updated when the 'Chip_EN' bit in Chip_en register is set to 0, and after the 'Chip_EN' returns to 1, the new MC data is effective. 'Down_Deghost' and 'Up_Deghost' in Dev_config3 work in the similar way with MC.

3 Groups of 7-Bits Color Current (CC) Setting

The LP5866 device can adjust the output current of three color groups separately. For each color, the device has 7-bits data in 'CC_Group1', 'CC_Group2', and 'CC_Group3'. Thus, all color group currents can be adjusted in 128 steps from 0% to 100% of the maximum output current, IOUT_MAX.

The 18 current sinks have fixed mapping to the three color groups:

  • CC-Group 1: CS0, CS3, CS6, CS9, CS12, CS15.
  • CC-Group 2: CS1, CS4, CS7, CS10, CS13, CS16.
  • CC-Group 3: CS2, CS5, CS8, CS11, CS14, CS17.

Individual 8-bit Dot Current (DC) Setting
The LP5866 can individually adjust the output current of each LED by using dot current function through DC setting. The device allows the brightness deviations of the LEDs to adjusted be individually. Each output DC is programmed with a 8-bit depth, so the value can be adjusted with 256 steps within the range from 0% to 100% of (IOUT_MAX × CC/127).

In summary, the current gain of each current sink can be calculated as below:

Equation 3. IOUT (mA) = IOUT_MAX × (CC/127) × (DC/255)

For time-multiplexing scan scheme, if the scan number is N, each LED dot average current IAVG is shown as below:

Equation 4. IAVG (mA) = IOUT / N = IOUT_MAX × (CC/127) × (DC/255) / N
