PWM on RSET Pin
another resistor with a FET in series, as shown on Figure 27.
R1 sets the minimum LED current corresponding to 0% duty
cycle. The combined resistor of R1 and Rmax sets the
maximum LED current corresponding to 100% duty cycle.

Operation from High Supply Voltage Above 14 V
recommended to have a slew rate of 1 ms or more for every
5 V increase in VBAT supply. When using a high supply
voltage of 24 V, a 1 W or 2 W resistor in series with the supply,
as shown on Figure 28, is recommended to limit the slew rate
of the supply voltage. A 4.7 mF minimum ceramic capacitor
is placed between the VBAT pin and ground. The
combination of the series resistor R3 and input capacitor C1
acts as a low pass filter limiting the excessive in−rush
currents and overvoltage transients which would otherwise
occur during “hot−plug” conditions, thereby protecting the
CAV4201 driver.
Operation from High Supply Voltage of 36 V
resistor in series with the supply is recommended, as shown
on Figure 29, to limit the slew rate of the supply voltage.
Inductor value should be 33 mH or higher.
Parallel Configuration for Driving LEDs Beyond
350 mA
driving LEDs with current in excess of 350 mA. The
CAV4201 driver circuits are connected to the same LED
cathode. Figure 30 shows the application schematic for
driving 1 A into one LED with three CAV4201 connected in
parallel. Each CAV4201 is driving the LED with a current
set by its RSET resistor. The resulting LED current is equal
to the sum of each driver current.
