LP5036: PWM Duty cycle derivation and Current Consumption details for individual LEDs

Part Number: LP5036

Tool/software:

Hi Team,

I would like to understand how the PWM Duty Cycle is derived from Colour Mixing and brightness, and how it affects current consumption for individual LEDS.

Could you please explain:

  1. How are the 8-bit colour and 8-bit brightness values combined to get the final 12-bit PWM duty cycle?

    Is it simply,

    PWM = ((Color × Brightness) / 255)/255) * 4096 (12 bit resolution), or is there a different formula?

  2. Is the current directly related to the final PWM duty cycle?

Thanks,

Vedi Govind
