=0% to 100% PWM signal duty cycle can be used up to the maximum LED current and minimum LED current as in the
next formulas.
by the duty cycle, our recommendation external components values are, R1=10 , R2=5.1k , R3=51k , R4=5.1k
around.
frequency control than the frequency against the CE pin can be used for dimming control. For example, if the frequency is
40kHz, 0.1uF or more capacitor is our recommendation value as C3.

The peak current of the inductor at normal mode can be calculated as next formula:
ILxpeak=1.25 I
When the start-up or dimming control by CE pin, transient current flows, the peak current must be equal or less
than the current limit of the IC. The peak current should not beyond the rating current of the inductor. For
example, for 4 serial LED drive from V
Set 1 F or more value bypass capacitor between VIN pin and the GND like C1 as in the figure above as close as
posible to the IC.
Set 0.22 F or more capacitor between V

For example, supposed that the PWM signal level is set as 2.5V/0V, to adjust the LED current range from 0mA to 20mA
C3 should be set large enough to regard the PWM signal as adjustable DC voltage by the filter. In this method, higher
