through a resistor divider, or connected directly to REF to current source between zero and full current to achieve give the full-scale threshold of 105mV.

cycles. This guideline has two reasons: first to allow the There are two methods to control the current source for output to reach steady state before shutting off, and second dimming using the LT3476. The first method, popular because the oscillator is not synchronized to the PWM with LED applications, uses the PWM pin to modulate the signal and there may be as much as one switching cycle delay from PWM going high to the start of switching. This delay, however, does not apply to the negative transition V 1.05V REF of the PWM signal. The minimum PWM low/high time can 20k 25k be reduced to five switching cycles if a disconnect switch is used in the LED current path. VADJ1-4 The second method of dimming control uses the VADJ pin to linearly adjust the current sense threshold during the 470 PTC PWM high state. The LED current programming feature 3476 F01 augments the PWM dimming control, possibly increasing total dimming range by a factor of ten.
