Connect a pull-up resistor between this pin and desired logic level voltage. 2 VDD Output of internal LDO (bias regulator). Connect a 1 µF decoupling capacitor between this pin and AGND. VDD is regulated at ~4.25 V. 3 AGND LED current Ground. Also serves as ‘quiet’ ground for analog signals. 4 COMP Output of the error amplifier and compensation node. Connect a series RZ-CZ network from this pin to AGND for control loop compensation. 5 ISET Connect RISET resistor between this pin and AGND to set the 100% LED current. 6 PEB Pre-Emptive Boost control: Connect resistor from PEB pin to AGND to fine-tune the delay between boost switch and LED current sinks. Leave pin open for minimum PEB delay of 1 μs. 7 DITH Dithering control: connect a capacitor to AGND to set the dithering modulation frequency (1 to 22 kHz). Connect a resistor between DITH and FSET pins to set the dithering range (such as ±5% of fSW). Frequency/Synchronization pin. A resistor RFSET from this pin to AGND sets the switching frequency fSW (with dithering superimposed) 8 FSET between 200 kHz and 2.3 MHz. It can also be used to synchronize fSW to an external frequency between 260 kHz and 2.3 MHz (frequency dithering is disabled in this case). 9 ADIM Analog dimming. Apply a PWM clock (40 to 1000 kHz) to pin and the duty cycle of this clock determines the LED current. Alternatively, apply DC level between 0.2 and 2 V to vary LED current between 10% and 100%. If unused, pull pin above 2 V for 100%. 10 PWM Controls the on/off state of LED current sinks to reduce the light intensity by using pulse-width modulation. Typical PWM dimming frequency is in the range of 200 Hz to 2 kHz. EN and PWM pins may be tied together to allow single-wire dimming control. 11 EN Enables the IC when this pin is pulled high. If EN goes low, the IC remains in standby mode for up to 16 ms, then shuts down completely. 12 CLKOUT Logic output representing the switching frequency of internal boost oscillator. This allows other converters to be synchronized to the same fSW with the same dithering modulation, if applicable. Output is active as long as IC is enabled. 13-16 LED4..LED1 LED current sinks #4 to #1. Connect the cathode of each LED string to pin. Unused LED pin must be terminated to AGND through a 2.37 kΩ resistor. 17 OVP Overvoltage Protection. Connect external resistor from VOUT to this pin to adjust the overvoltage protection threshold. 18 PGND Power Ground for internal Gate Driver. Connect pin to external power GND with shortest path. 19 VDRV Gate driver supply voltage (~6.5 V). Connect a 2.2 µF MLCC to PGND for buffer. 20 CS Current Sense for peak current control of power switch. Connect to sense resistor at the Source terminal of external power MOSFET. 21 GDRV Gate driver for power switch. Connect to Gate of external power MOSFET. (External FET must be fully enhanced at VGS = 5 V). 22 GATE Output gate driver pin for external P-channel MOSFET (input disconnect switch). 23 VSENSE Connect this pin to the negative sense side of the input current sense resistor RSC. The threshold voltage is measured as VIN – VSENSE. There is also fixed iADJ current sink to allow for trip threshold adjustment. 24 VIN Input power to the IC as well as the positive side of input current sense resistor. – PAD Exposed pad of the package providing enhanced thermal dissipation. Must be connected to the ground plane(s) of the PCB with at least 8 vias, directly in the pad.
