MSL2023/2024 [DATASHEET]
42063A–LED–02/2013
11.7 PWM and LED Brightness
Figure 6-1 on page 12 is a block diagram that shows how the MSL2023 controls the brightness of the LEDs. The duty
cycle of each string equals the value programmed into the 12-bit PWM control registers MainDuty[11:0] and
ColorAdjustDuty[11:0], (registers 0x34 through 0x37). The frequency of the PWM dimming is 400Hz. The dimming
signals for the two strings are 180º out of phase.
Figure 6-2 on page 13 is a block diagram that shows how the MSL2024 controls the brightness of the LEDs. The duty
cycle of each string equals the duty cycle of the inputs at PWM1 (main string) and PWM2 (color-adjust string). The
frequency of each string’s PWM dimming signal equals the frequencies of the respective input signals. The frequency
range of the PWM1 input is 120Hz to 22kHz, while the minimum on-time for the main string driver output G is 2µs. The
frequency range of the PWM2 input is 200Hz to 500Hz.
