High-Current Parallel Operation
The linear drivers are independent of each other, and
can be used individually or paralleled for larger current.
A single WLED can be driven with all six linear drivers by
connecting D1 through D6 together with the cathode of
the WLED as shown in Figure 11. This will generate a
current six times the LED current setting and can be
used for higher current WLEDs such as those used in
flash or torch applications.
The current is set by the R
calculated by the following equation:
D is the duty cycle of the LED current during PWM
dimming. When the device is fully on the duty cycle
equals 100% (D = 1). Figure 12 shows the response
time of the six paralleled linear drivers to the enable
signal, while Figure 13 shows the turn off response. With
a R
250mA, with all 6 linear drivers connected in parallel, the
MIC2843 is capable of driving a total current of 1.5A.

Input Capacitor
The MIC2843 is a high-performance, high-bandwidth
device. Stability can be maintained using a ceramic input
capacitor of 1µF. Low-ESR ceramic capacitors provide
optimal performance at a minimum amount of space.
Additional high-frequency capacitors, such as small-
valued NPO dielectric-type capacitors, help filter out
high-frequency noise and are good practice in any noise-
sensitive
recommended for the input capacitor. Y5V dielectrics
lose most of their capacitance over temperature and are
therefore, not recommended.
