the registers of the device. The columns of registers on the right are updated by clicking the Readback All
button. When the program is first opened, the default values as shown above should be present. This will
indicate proper communication with the device.
• 1. Jumper J7 pins 2 to 3 for HWEN
• 2. Jumper J9 pins 1 to 2 for I2C address = 0x36
• 3. Jumpers on J5, J10, and J11 to complete LED power circuit
• 4. Arrange jumpers on HL1 and HL2 to select the number of LEDs in series (see diagram below)
• 5. Connect the LM3630 evaluation board to the USB2ANY interface
• 6. Connect USB2ANY interface board to computer USB port
• 7. Connect an external power supply to J1 and J2. 2.3V < Vin < 5.5V
• 8. Run LM3630.exe (Make sure USB2ANY.dll is in the same directory)
• 9. Check LED_A_EN and LED2_ON_A boxes. This will put both strings on control bank A
• 10. Uncheck the Sleep box
• 11. Move the slider under Brightness for Bank A to increase the current provided to the LEDs
The Interrupt Status Register will update every time the Readback All button is pressed. The status
register should show no boxes checked indicating normal operation after the steps listed above are
performed and the Readback All button is pressed.
Access to any register is available through the Manual Control. Enter the address and data for a write or
address only for a read.
See the LM3630 data sheet for detailed descriptions of the registers and their usage.
NOTE: Do not change the configuration of the device while the backlight is enabled. First disable the
backlight by making sure LED_EN_A and/or LEN_EN_B is unchecked. Then adjust the configuration and
turn on the backlight. Changing the configuration while the backlight is on may produce unexpected
results.
NOTE: If the part is enabled to any level of brightness or state and the program is closed, the LM3630
device will remain in the last controlled state.
