8.3.2.7 Setting PWM Dimming Frequency
LP8556 PWM dimming frequency can be set by an external resistor, RFSET, or by pre-configuring EPROM Memory (CFG5 register, PWM_FREQ[3:0] bits). Table 4 summarizes setting of the PWM dimming frequency. Note that .
NOTE
The RFSET is shared for setting the boost switching frequency, too. Setting the boost switching frequency and PWM dimming frequency using an external resistor is shown in Table 5.
