Shut-Down
When taken low the ENAB pin places the ISL97631 into
power down mode. When in power down, the supply current
is reduced to less than 1µA.
Dimming Control
PWM DIMMING
The ENAB pin also doubles as a brightness control. There
are two different possible dimming control methods. The
first dimming method is controlled through the duty-cycle of
the ENAB input PWM waveform, which can operate at
frequencies up to 1kHz. For frequencies greater than 1kHz,
see Analog Dimming. The LEDs operate at either zero or
full current. This is the PWM dimming control method. The
relationship between the average LED current and the
duty-cycle (D) of the ENAB pin’s waveform is as follows:

Detailed Description
The ISL97631 uses a constant frequency, current mode
control scheme to provide excellent line and load
regulation. It can drive up to 6 LEDs in series or 15 LEDs in
parallel/series configuration, with efficiencies of up 85%.
The ISL97631 operates from an input voltage of 2.7V to
5.5V and can boost up to 27V.
Steady-State Operation
The ISL97631 operates with constant frequency PWM. The
switching frequency is around 1.35MHz. Depending on the
input voltage, inductance, number of LEDs and the LED

The magnitude of the PWM signal should be higher than the
minimum ENAB voltage high. The bench PWM dimming test
results are shown in Figure 8. In the test, two PWM
frequencies 400Hz and 1kHz are chosen to compare the
linear dimming range. It is clear that there is a wider linear
dimming range for the lower PWM frequency than for the
higher one, due to the self discharge of the output capacitor
through the LEDs during the low ENAB periods. To achieve
a better linearity with high frequencies an NMOS FET can be
placed between the FB pin and the LED stack, with its gate
driven by the same signal as ENAB. This acts to prevent self
discharge of the output capacitor during the off periods. In
the PWM dimming test, the output capacitor is 0.22µF.
