rent sources require a sufficient amount of headroom voltage
to be present across them in order to regulate properly.
Minimum required headroom voltage is proportional to the
current flowing through the current source, as dictated by the
equation:
The parameter k

the internal current mirror transistors. For worst-case design
calculations, using a k

from part-to-part variation and applies over the full operating
temperature range). Figure 3 shows how output current of

On the flat part of the graph, the currents regulate properly
as there is sufficient headroom voltage for regulation. On the
sloping part of the graph the headroom voltage is too small,
the current sources are squeezed, and their current drive
capability is limited. Changes in headroom voltage from one
output to the next, possible with LED forward voltage mis-
match, will result in different output currents and LED bright-
ness mismatch. Thus, operating the LM2794/5 with insuffi-
cient headroom voltage across the current sources should
be avoided.
