Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these
or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect
device reliability.

Note 1:
All devices 100% production tested at T
J
= +25°C. Limits over the operating temperature range are guaranteed by design.
Note 2:
Dropout is measured as follows: Connect a resistor from OUT_ to CS_. Connect R
CS_
= 2.85Ω from CS_ to GND.
Set V
IN
= V
OUT
+ 3V (record V
OUT
as V
OUTA
). Reduce V
IN
until V
OUT
= 0.97 x V
OUTA
(record as V
INB
and V
OUTB
).
VDO = V
INB
- V
OUTB
.
Note 3:
Output current rise and fall times are measured with a 62Ω series resistor from OUT_ to CS_.
Note 4:
Overtemperature protection does not function if the output of the 3.4V reference (REG) is shorted to ground.

FUNCTION
Dimming Input 1. DIM1 is a low-frequency dimming input for channel 1. A logic-low turns off
OUT1 and a logic-high turns on OUT1.
Dimming Input 2. DIM2 is a low-frequency dimming input for channel 2. A logic-low turns off
OUT2 and a logic-high turns on OUT2.
Dimming Input 3. DIM3 is a low-frequency dimming input for channel 3. A logic-low turns off
OUT3 and a logic-high turns on OUT3.
Open LED Output. LEDGOOD is an open-drain output. A logic-high indicates the LED
connection is good in all three channels. A logic-low indicates an open LED connection. See
the
LEDGOOD
section.
Positive Input Supply. Bypass with a 0.1µF (min) capacitor to GND. Connect all IN
pins together.
LED Detection-Timing Setting. Connect a capacitor from LGC to ground to set the delay
time for LEDGOOD.
3.4V Voltage Regulator. Connect a 0.1µF capacitor from REG to GND.
Ground
Channel 3 Sense Amplifier Positive Input. Connect the current-sense resistor between CS3
and GND to program the output current level for channel 3.
Channel 2 Sense Amplifier Positive Input. Connect the current-sense resistor between CS2
and GND to program the output current level for channel 2.
Channel 1 Sense Amplifier Positive Input. Connect the current-sense resistor between CS1
and GND to program the output current level for channel 1.
Current Regulator Output 3
Current Regulator Output 2
Current Regulator Output 1
Exposed Pad. Connect EP to a large-area ground plane for effective power dissipation. Do
