Application Information
Output Current Adjustment by PWM Control
Directly driving ADJ input
A Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) signal with duty cycle D
current to a value above or below the nominal average value set by resistor R
Driving the ADJ input via open collector transistor
The recommended method of driving the ADJ pin and controlling the amplitude of the PWM waveform is to use a small NPN
switching transistor as shown below:
This scheme uses the 50k resistor between the ADJ pin and the internal voltage reference as a pull-up resistor for the external
transistor eg MMBT3904.
Driving the ADJ input from a microcontroller
Another possibility is to drive the device from the open drain output of a microcontroller. The diagram below shows one method
of doing this:
If the NMOS transistor within the microcontroller has high Gate / Drain capacitance, this arrangement can inject a negative spike
into ADJ input of the ZXLD1356 and cause erratic operation but the addition of a Schottky clamp diode (eg Diodes Inc.
SD103CWS) to ground and inclusion of a series resistor (3.3k) will prevent this. See the section on PWM dimming for more
details of the various modes of control using high frequency and low frequency PWM signals.
