Overlapping Mode
In overlapping mode the brightness is controlled using PWM
duty cycle based control method as the following figure
shows.
Since RGB outputs are on simultaneously, the maximum load
peak current is:
Non-Overlapping Mode
The timing diagram shows the split R, G and B and brightness
control effect to split parts. Full brightness is used in the dia-
The non-overlapping mode has 16 programmed colors (dif-
ferent R, G and B ratio -> different color). Since the R, G and
B are split into non-overlapping slots the output current
through the RGB LED can be calculated with following equa-
tion:
where
C = Color [%] (see table of color control)
B = Brightness [%] (see table of brightness control)
2. LED ON/OFF CONTROL WITH RGB CONTROL
REGISTER
Each LED output can be set ON by writing the corresponding
bit high in the Control register (00H). RSW controls RLED,
GSW controls GLED and BSW controls BLED output. Note
that EN_RGB bit must be high and RGB_PWM bit low. In this
mode, the RGB register (01H) does not have any effect.
CC_SW bit in Control register defines the LED output mode.

gram. If for example ½ brightness is used, the frame is still
50µs, but all LED outputs’ ON time is 50% shorter and at the
last 25µs all LED outputs are OFF.
Switch Mode / Constant Current Mode
Each RGB LED output can be set to act as a switch or a con-
stant current sink. Selection of mode is done with the CC_SW
bit in the Control Register. If bit is set high, then the switch
mode is selected. Default is switch mode.
SWITCH MODE
In switch mode, the RGB LED outputs are low ohmic switches
to ground. Resistance is typically 3.2Ω. External ballast re-
sistors must be used to limit the current through the LED.
CONSTANT CURRENT MODE
In constant current mode, the maximum output current is de-
fined with a single external resistor (R
current control register (address 02H).
