Figure 2: Data Code for Address 0-2
vs. Backlight Current Level.
Table 1: AS2Cwire Serial Interface Addressing.
The AAT2846 incorporates additional circuitry that opti-
mizes performance for exceptionally low backlight cur-
rent settings. A separate address is used to activate this
circuitry. To program the low current settings with
improved performance and efficiency, write to Address
3. Unlike Addresses 0-3, which have current level set-
tings according to Table 2 and Figure 2, Address 3 pos-
sesses a separate set of current levels described by the
Low Current Backlight settings found in Table 3.
Backlight Current Control (Address 0-3)
Use Addresses 0-3 to program all six backlight LED
channels. All six backlight channels are programmed to
the same current level by writing Address 0 followed by
any Data between 1 and 16. To program only the main
channels BL1 through BL5, use Address 1. Similarly, use
Address 2 to independently program subchannel BL6
only.
