Pin 4, Duty Cycle Reduction
Functional Description
With Pin 4 connected according to figure 2, the set duty
cycle is reduced as from V 12.5 V. This causes a
power reduction in the FET and in the lamps. In addition,
the brightness of the lamps is largely independent of the

To protect the FET in the case of ground-wire breakage,
a 820 k resistor between gate and source it is recom-
mended to provide proper switch-off conditions.
Output Slope Control
The rise and fall time (t , t ) of the lamp voltage can be

limited to reduce radio interference. This is done with an
integrator which controls a power MOSFET as source fol-
lower. The slope time is controlled by an external
capacitor C4 and the oscillator current (see figure 2).
Pin 2, Enable/Disable
The dimmer can be switched on or off with pin 2 indepen-
dently of the set duty cycle.

Pin 5, Attenuation
The pulse width is controlled by means of an external po-
tentiometer (47 k ). The characteristic (angle of
rotation/duty cycle) is linear. The duty cycle can be varied
from 0 to 100%. It is possible to further restrict the duty
