8.2.2 Single-Channel LED Driver With Heat Sharing

Using parallel resistors, thermal performance can be improved by balancing current between the TPS92612-Q1 device and the external resistors as follows. As the current-sense resistor controls the total LED string current, the LED string current I(LED) is set by V(CS_REG) / R(SNS), while the TPS92612-Q1 current I(DRIVE) and parallel resistor current I(P) combine to the total current.
