NCP1840
OPERATION DESCRIPTION
Constant Current Control
The NCP1840 has 8 LED channels that are individually
regulated constant current sources. The maximum current
per channel is 30 mA but can be reduced by adjusting the
resistor R BIAS , which is placed between the R BIAS pin and
ground. R BIAS is required and can vary between 10.25 k W
and 20.5 k W . The maximum current per channel can be
calculated with the following equation:
Additionally, the NCP1840 allows for the current through
each of the 8 channels to be fully programmable via a 5 ? bit
DAC on each output, allowing for the desired luminance to
be achieved for each channel. Programming the current
level is achieved by loading data into channel ? specific
registers through the I 2 C serial interface. The output current
levels are logarithmic, providing a perceived linear LED
brightness to the human eye, as shown in Figure 12. This

PWM Control
The NCP1840 provides 6 ? bit PWM duty cycle control for
each of its 8 channels, allowing each channel to be dimmed
independent of the other channels and without sacrificing
the LED color output. Programming PWM duty cycle is
achieved by loading data into channel ? specific registers
through the I 2 C serial interface. The typical on time of the
LED can be calculated by multiplying the duty cycle
percentage by the typical PWM period of 575 m s.
Charge Pump
The NCP1840 incorporates a high efficiency, low noise,
QUAD ? MODE (1x, 1.33x, 1.5x, and 2x) charge pump. This
allows for higher forward voltage LEDs and/or multiple
LEDs in series per channel to be driven with a low ? voltage
supply. In order to optimize efficiency while maintaining
constant current regulation, the NCP1840 automatically
senses when it should change charge pump modes based on
the voltage across the LED current sources. By utilizing the
1.33x mode, approximately 10% more efficiency than a
typical 1.5x mode is achieved.
The NCP1840 powers up in 1x mode where the charge
pump output voltage will be approximately equal to the
input supply voltage. If the output voltage is sufficient to
regulate all LED currents, the device remains in this mode.
However, if the input voltage is insufficient to regulate the
current in all active channels, the device automatically
switches into 1.33x mode. In this mode, the output voltage
is approximately equal to 1.33 times the input supply
voltage. If the input voltage is insufficient again to maintain
current regulation in all active channels, the device will
automatically switch to the 1.5x mode. In this mode, the
output voltage will be approximately equal to 1.5 times the
input supply voltage. If the input voltage is still insufficient
to maintain the constant current regulation in all active
channels, the device will automatically switch to the 2x
mode where the output voltage is approximately equal to
two times the input supply voltage. In all modes, if the
device detects a sufficient input voltage to drive all LED
currents in 1x mode, it will automatically change back to 1x
mode to optimize efficiency.
I 2 C Serial Interface
The registers of the NCP1840 are programmed and read
through an I 2 C serial interface. Due to the NCP1840 only
being configured as a Slave device, a Master device is
required on the communication bus. The NCP1840 has a
factory programmed 7 ? bit Slave address of 0011011 (1B
hex). The last bit of the Slave address specifies whether a
Read (1) or Write (0) operation is to be performed. The
maximum clock frequency for the serial interface is 400 kHz
and both the SCL and SDA lines require external pull ? up
resistors.
