EEPROM Data Write Procedure
The DC data and the maximum on-duty data can be programmed into the EEPROM with the following
procedure:
1. Turn on the VCC power supply.
2. Set the VROM pin voltage to 19 V ± 0.5 V. The supply current is 5 mA (typical). The buck converter stops
while the VROM pin is held at the voltage.
3. Write the data for EEPROM write data latch 1 with the address. Write the command and the write data to
EEPROM data latch address.
4. Wait for more than 40 ms without data transfer. The maximum wait time is unlimited.
5. Stop supplying 19 V to the VROM pin and release the pin.
6. Write the grayscale data to turn on the LED and check LED brightness.
7. If the brightness must be adjusted, send new dot correction data to the DC data latch for brightness adjust.
8. Check the brightness again.
9. Repeat steps 8 and 9 to determine the best DC data.
10. Write the best DC data to the EEPROM write data latch 2 using steps 3 to 5 in this sequence.
Readout Register
EEPROM Data Readout Register (Register Address = 1011b)
When any data are written to this register address, the programed data in the EEPROM are loaded to the lower
36 bits in the 40-bit shift register from this readout register (register address = 1011b). The higher 4-bit data in
the 40-bit shift register are not changed from 1011b. The loaded data can be read out from SDTY and SDTZ and
syncronized by the shift clock generated from SCKA and SCKB. The data bit assignments are shown in Table 17
and Figure 34.
