Voltage Control
Maximum boost converter voltage is defined by the feedback voltage divider R12 and R13.
Recommended value for R13 is 130 k
Ω
. R12 value can be calculated with the following equation:
where
•
V
BG
= 1.2 V
•
R12, R13 values are in k

Figure 6. Converter Maximum Output Voltage vs R12
Maximum voltage should be chosen based on the maximum voltage required for LED strings.
Recommended maximum voltage is about 30% higher than maximum LED string voltage. Initial boost
voltage is about 88% of maximum voltage. Boost output voltage is adjusted automatically based on LED
current sink headroom voltage.
Default setting for boost maximum voltage is 37 V (R12 is 750 k
Ω
).
