LM3643EVM User's Guide Introduction The Texas Instruments LM3643EVM evaluation module (EVM) helps designers evaluate the operation and performance of the LM3643 High-Current LED driver. The device offers configurability via I compatible interface. It can be enabled in Flash or Torch mode via the I C interface or externally using the STROBE and TORCH/TEMP pins.
Input Capacitors from the Inductor and eliminate their filtering effect to the Inductor Current. J17 and J18: LED Current measurements -The LM3643EVM provides a way to accurately measure the LED current through both LEDs on board. Resistors R1 & R2 (0.1 Ω) are placed between the cathode of LED1 &...
Figure 9 Figure 10 show the board layout for the LM3643EVM. The EVM offers resistors, capacitors, and jumpers to enable the device and to configure it as desired. The LM3643 will dissipate power, especially during high current and long duration flash events. Power will also be dissipated on the flash LEDs.
USB2ANY interface box and interface software. The LM3643EVM has the means to “plug into” the USB docking board. The USB docking board provides all the control signals for the simple interface. Power to the part must be provided externally. A USB cable (provided) must be connected to the board from a PC.
Figure 15. Flags I/O Pin Controls The LM3643EVM provides the user with the capability to control the TORCH, STROBE and TX inputs without the need of an external supply. The Tx Enable Button creates a continuous pulse train when depressed. The Torch EN button toggles the LM3643's TORCH/TEMP pin high when pressed and low depressed.
