The MAX16832A/MAX16832C include a UVLO with
500mV hysteresis. The internal MOSFET turns off when
V
LED dimming is achieved by applying a PWM signal at
DIM. A logic level below 0.6V at DIM forces the
MAX16832A/MAX16832Cs’ output low, thus turning off
the LED current. To turn the LED current on, the logic
level at DIM must be greater than 2.8V.
The MAX16832A/MAX16832C thermal-shutdown feature
turns off the LX driver when the junction temperature
exceeds +165°C. The LX driver turns back on when the
junction temperature drops 10°C below the shutdown
temperature threshold.
The MAX16832A/MAX16832C offer an analog-dimming
feature that reduces the output current when the volt-
age at TEMP_I is below the internal 2V threshold volt-
age. The MAX16832A/MAX16832C achieve analog
dimming by either an external DC voltage source con-
nected between TEMP_I and ground or by a voltage on
a resistor connected across TEMP_I and ground
induced by an internal current source of 25µA. When
the voltage at TEMP_I is below the internal 2V threshold
limit, the MAX16832A/MAX16832C reduce the LED cur-
rent. Use the following formula to set the analog dim-
ming current:
where V

voltage at TEMP_I.
The MAX16832A/MAX16832C include a thermal-fold-
back feature that reduces the output current when the
temperature of the LED string exceeds a specified tem-
perature point. These devices enter thermal-foldback
mode when the voltage drop on the NTC thermistor,
thermally attached to the LEDs and electrically con-
nected between TEMP_I and ground, drops below the
internal 2V threshold limit.

The LED current is programmed with a current-sense
resistor connected between IN and CS. Use the follow-
ing equation to calculate the value of this resistor:

The MAX16832A/MAX16832C regulate the LED current
using a comparator with hysteresis (see Figure 2). As
the current through the inductor ramps up and the volt-
age across the sense resistor reaches the upper
threshold, the internal MOSFET turns off. The internal
MOSFET turns on again when the inductor current
ramps down through the freewheeling diode until the
voltage across the sense resistor equals the lower
threshold. Use the following equation to determine the
operating frequency:
where n is the number of LEDs, V
voltage drop of 1 LED, and ∆V = (V
The MAX16832A/MAX16832C operate up to a switch-
ing frequency of 2MHz. For space-sensitive applica-
tions, the high switching frequency allows the size of
the inductor to be reduced. Use the following formula to
calculate an approximate inductor value and use the
closest standard value:
