RGB LED Blinking Control
LP3952 has a possibility to drive indicator LEDs with RGB1 outputs with programmable blinking time. Blinking function is enabled
with RGB_SEL[1:0] bits set as 01b in 0BH register. R1_CYCLE_EN, G1_CYCLE_EN and B1_CYCLE_EN bits in cycle registers
(02H, 04H and 06H) enable/disable blinking function for corresponding output. When EN_BLINK bit is written high in register 11H,
the blinking sequences for all outputs (which has CYCLE_EN bit enabled) starts simultaneously. EN_BLINK bit should be written
high after selecting wanted blinking sequences and enabling CYCLE_EN bits, to synchronize outputs to get desired lighting effect.
R1SW, G1SW and B1SW bits can be used to enable and disable outputs when wanted.
RGB1 blinking sequence is set with R1, G1 and B1 blink registers (01H, 03H and 05H) by setting the appropriate OFF-ON times.
Blinking cycle times are set with R1_CYCLE[2:0], G1_CYCLE[2:0] and B1_CYCLE[2:0] bits in R1, G1 and B1 CYCLE registers
(02H, 04H and 06H). OFF/ON time is a percentage of the selected cycle time. Values for setting OFF/ON time can be seen in
following table.
Blinking ON/OFF cycle is defined so that there will be first
OFF-period then ON-period after which follows an off-period
for the remaining cycle time that can not be set. If OFF and
ON times are together more than 100% the first OFF time will
be as set and the ON time is cut to meet 100%. For example,
R1_ON[3:0], R1_OFF[3:0]
G1_ON[3:0], G1_OFF[3:0]
B1_ON[3:0], B1_OFF[3:0]

if 50% OFF time is set and ON time is set greater than 50%,
only 50% ON time is used, the exceeding ON time is ignored.
If OFF and ON times are together less than 100% the re-
maining cycle time output is OFF.
