Adjusting the output current of the MAX8595X/
MAX8596X changes the brightness of the LEDs. An
analog input (CTRL) and the sense-resistor value set
the output current. Output current is given by:
The V
0.24V to 1.65V (or 1.72V for the MAX8596X). To set the
maximum current, calculate R
its maximum as follows:
Power dissipation in R
allowing the use of a small surface-mount resistor.
CTRL is also used as a digital input allowing LED
brightness control with a logic-level PWM signal
applied directly to CTRL. The frequency range is from
200Hz to 200kHz, while 0% duty cycle corresponds to
zero current and 100% duty cycle corresponds to full
current. The error amplifier and compensation capaci-
tor form a lowpass filter so PWM dimming results in DC
current to the LEDs without the need for any additional
RC filters; see the Typical Operating Characteristics.
Ceramic capacitors with X5R, X7R, or better dielectric
are recommended for stable operation over the entire
operating temperature range. The exact values of input
and output capacitors are not critical. The typical value
for the input capacitor is 2.2µF, and the typical value for
the output capacitor is 0.1µF. Higher value capacitors
can be used to reduce input and output ripple, but at
the expense of size and higher cost. C

capacitor from COMP to GND. For stable operation,

Inductor values range from 10µH to 47µH. A 22µH
inductor optimizes the efficiency for most applications
while maintaining low 12mV

voltages near 5V, a larger value of inductance can be
more efficient. To prevent core saturation, ensure that
the inductor-saturation current rating exceeds the peak
inductor current for the application. Calculate the peak
inductor current with the following formula:
The high switching frequency of the MAX8595X/
MAX8596X demands a high-speed rectification diode
(D1) for optimum efficiency. A Schottky diode is recom-
mended due to its fast recovery time and low forward-
voltage drop. Ensure that the diode’s average and
peak current rating exceed the average output current
and peak inductor current. In addition, the diode’s
reverse breakdown voltage must exceed V
