Pin Functions

PIN TYPE DESCRIPTION
NAME NUMBER
COMP 4 Analog Connect an external 0.47-µF ceramic capacitor to this pin for the boost loop compensation.
GND 8 Ground Analog ground
IFB4 to IFB6,
IFB1 to IFB3
5, 6, 7,
9, 10, 11
Analog Regulated current sinks input pins
ISET 3 Analog Full-scale LED current setting pin. Connect a resistor to the pin to program the full-scale LED current.
MODE/FAULT 16 Input Multi-function pin. Use this pin to program the dimming mode. It also functions as a driver for external isolation P-channel MOSFET.(1)
OVP 12 Analog This pin monitors the output voltage of the boost converter through external resistor divider.
PGND 13 Ground Power ground
PWM/EN 1 Input PWM dimming signal input and device enable / disable control.(1)
SW 14 Analog Drain of the internal power MOSFET.
VIN 15 Power Supply input pin, provides power supply to the device.
VLDO 2 Analog Internal pre-regulator output. Connect a 1-µF ceramic capacitor to this pin.
Thermal Pad The GND pin should be connected to the exposed thermal pad for proper operation. This thermal pad should be connected to any internal PCB ground plan using multiple vias for good thermal performance.
