Abstract:
One embodiment includes a light-emitting diode (LED) control system. The system includes an LED driver system configured to regulate a control voltage based on a substantially constant reference current and a feedback voltage at a feedback node. The system also includes a digital current source system comprising a plurality of unit current sources that are each coupled to an LED. The plurality of unit current sources can be selectively activated to each provide a given unit current through the LED and to each provide the feedback voltage as an interpolative feedback to the feedback node based on the unit current. The system further includes a current magnitude controller configured to selectively activate the plurality of unit current sources in response to a current magnitude signal.
