PRODUCTION DATA
The period of internal pulse generator (tPLMT) is set by the CPLMT capacitor. The period, tPLMT defines the minimum repetition rate of LED current pulses allowed based on external UDIM signal and is set based on the maximum PWM frequency, fPWM(MAX). An additional margin in design is necessary to compensate for the component tolerances and noise in the system. The tPLMT period is determined using Equation 26.
The pulse limit capacitor, CPLMT, capacitor is calculated using Equation 27.
Table 7-3 summarizes the TI recommended pulse limit capacitor value for different PWM frequencies. A single capacitor or parallel combination of capacitors must be rated for 6.3 V or higher and with tolerance lower than 10%.
