Characteristics subject to change without notice DIMMING CONTROL There are several methods available to control the LED brightness. PWM signal on the SHDN ¯¯¯¯¯ Pin LED brightness dimming can be done by applying a PWM signal to the SHDN ¯¯¯¯¯ input. The LED current is repetitively turned on and off, so that the average current is proportional to the duty cycle. A 100% duty cycle, with SHDN ¯¯¯¯¯ always high, corresponds to the LEDs at nominal current. Figure 1 shows a 1kHz signal with a 50% duty cycle applied to the SHDN ¯¯¯¯¯ pin. The recommended PWM frequency range is from 100Hz to 2kHz. Figure 1. Switching Waveform with 1kHz PWM on SHDN ¯¯¯¯¯ Filtered PWM Signal A filtered PWM signal used as a variable DC voltage can control the LED current. Figure 2 shows the PWM control circuitry connected to the CAT4238 FB pin. The PWM signal has a voltage swing of 0V to 2.5V. The LED current can be dimmed within a range from 0mA to 20mA. The PWM signal frequency can vary from very low frequency up to 100kHz. Figure 2. Circuit for Filtered PWM Signal A PWM signal at 0V DC, or a 0% duty cycle, results in a max LED current of about 22mA. A PWM signal with a 93% duty cycle or more, results in an LED current of 0mA.
