Multiple LED Configuration
Figure 8.12: Multiple LED Configuration
The multiple LED configuration is an extension of the
. The mechanics of the configuration remains the same; the only adaptation is multiple
diodes on the control loop. To avoid unequal division of the current, only one diode should be activated at any one time.
Note
When switching from all off to one diode on, overshoot on the control voltage must be prevented. The most reliable and effective way of accomplishing
this is to switch the negative op amp input from the sense resistor to a voltage higher than the command from the DAC using uncommitted switches.
