h. Switching Frequency Across Dim Range
From the equations below and setting the OTP registers as follows, the switching frequency across the dim
range can be calculated. A sample plot of the switching frequency across dim values is shown in Figure 7.
The frequencies in regions A, B, C, and D are governed by Equations 44, 45, 46 and 47, respectively.
Transitions between connecting regions are the result of simple inequalities. The following four equations do
not include the effect of a color system. Equations 44 through 47 must be adjusted after the color system has
been designed.
Frequency in Region A
In Region A, the system operates in CRM, and the period TT
A
is calculated using Equation 44:
where,

dim = The 12-bit dim level provided by the boost stage
Frequency in Region B
In Region B, the system operates in DCM, but the peak current remains the same. Period TT
B
is calculated
using Equation 45:
