Pin Function
Voltage Input. Connect at least 1µF ceramic capacitor between VIN and GND.
Digital control input for linear WLED driver. See Digital Dimming Interface. Do not leave
floating.
An internal 1.27V reference sets the nominal maximum WLED current. Example, apply a 20.5kΩ
resistor between RSET and GND to set LED current to 20mA at 100% duty cycle.
Ground.
LED6 driver. Connect LED anode to VIN and cathode to this pin.
LED5 driver. Connect LED anode to VIN and cathode to this pin.
LED4 driver. Connect LED anode to VIN and cathode to this pin.
LED3 driver. Connect LED anode to VIN and cathode to this pin.
LED2 driver. Connect LED anode to VIN and cathode to this pin.
LED1 driver. Connect LED anode to VIN and cathode to this pin.
Heat sink pad. Not internally connected. Connect to ground.

Notes:
1. Exceeding the absolute maximum rating may damage the device.
2. The device is not guaranteed to function outside its operating rating.
3. Devices are ESD sensitive. Handling precautions recommended. Human body model, 1.5kΩ in series with 100pF.
4. As determined by average current of all channels in use and all channels loaded.
5. The current through each LED meets the stated limits from the average current of all LEDs.
