Series Up to ma LED Driver Thermal Feedback Circuit Vin R 4.7K BZX284C6V2 R3 K Thermistor B 39 R2 K Q K Vin st LED Thermally Connected The selection of components for the thermal feedback circuit is depends on the choice of R2 and R3 and the effectiveness of the LED heatsink. To optimize the LED brightness control at high temperatures, the LEDs must have a sufficient thermal extraction path, if not the reduction in drive current will not be optimal. The thermal control threshold points are set by adjusting R2. Three values (33K, 22K, and K) were tested. These values were chosen to provide thermal break points of approximately ºC, 4ºC, and 6ºC. Note, that the LED drive current will not continually dim to zero the thermal controls applying DC control to that pin has a dimming ratio from maximum current of approximately 5:. Once the reduced DC level drops below the shutdown threshold of around mv, the LED drive current will fall to zero and the LEDs will be off. The slope of the current reduction is determined by the beta value of the thermistor. The larger the Beta value the sharper will be the resultant current control response. The slope of the current reduction is also affected by Q s base emitter voltage variation with temperature. www.aimtec.com Tel: 54 62 2722 Toll free: 888 9 AIMTEC F 5e R9.I 7 of 4 North America only
