DC/DC OPERATION
generate a DC voltage capable to supply the RGB LED load.
The system regulates the current flowing into each LED, not
the DC Vout value, by means of internal current mirrors
associated with the diodes.
Mode = 2, the extra voltage Vout − Vf being sustained by the
current mirror structure.
independently programmed (by means of the associated
PWM ) to achieve the RGB function. The maximum LED
current, setup by the external bias resistor connected across
IREF pin and Ground, is associated to the digital content of
the I2C register (see Table 1). This peak current applies to
the three LED simultaneously, but, thanks to the RGB
function, the average output current of each LED is
controlled
Consequently, the luminosity of each RGB diode can be
independently adjusted to cope with a given illumination
need. Since the peak current is constant, the color of the
RGB diodes is the one defined by the specifications of each
individual LED.

5.7 V. The converter resumes to normal operation when the
voltage drops below 4.4 V (no latch−up mechanism).
Consequently, the chip can operate under no load conditions
during any test procedures.

LOAD CONNECTION
LED arranged in the RGB color structure (reference
OSRAM LATB G66x). The brightness of each LED is
independently controlled by a set of dedicated PWM
structure embedded into the silicon chip. The peak current,
identical for each LED, is programmable by means of the
I2C data byte. With 32 steps per PWM, the chip provides
32768 colors hue in a standard display.

and Downward direction. The dimming function is
controlled by the I2C interface: see Table 2.

arranged to accommodate several LED if necessary in the
application. Finally, the three current mirrors can be
connected in parallel to drive a single power full LED, thus
yielding 90 mA current capability in a single LED.
I2C PROTOCOL
I2C protocol controlled by an external MCU. The
communication takes place with two serial bytes sharing the
same I2C frame:
− Byte#1 ³ physical I2C address
− Byte#2 ³ Selected internal registers & function
On the other hand, care must be observed to avoid leakage
