TPS61166: LED current programming

Jim Huang28

Part Number: TPS61166

Hi Sir:

The FB voltage is 0.2-V , LED current was programmed by R1 resistor. What will happened when I set the current is 120 mA and use PWM 100 % but the panel BL module only accepts maximum current is 50 mA ? Does it damage the panel BL module ??

Hi Jim,

It's recommended that LED driver output current should be lower than the panel BL module maximum current.

Hi Robin:

I have several panels but I don't want to have different skus bom. I want to use SW PWM to control it. for example R1 decide maximum 120 mA but I use PWM to handle the current output from TPS61166 ??

Hi,

TPS61166 only supports PWM dimming, so the output current is 0 or 120mA. According to your previous description, it's dangerous. So I suggest you choose other analog dimming device with PWM input.

Robin
