IS31FL3236
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The 8-bit chip address is sent next, most significant bit
first. Each address bit must be stable while the SCL
level is high.
I2C INTERFACE
The IS31FL3236 uses a serial bus, which conforms to
the I2C protocol, to control the chip’s functions with two
wires: SCL and SDA. The IS31FL3236 has a 7-bit slave
address (A7:A1), followed by the R/W bit, A0. Since
IS31FL3236 only supports write operations, A0 must
always be “0”. The value of bits A1 and A2 are decided
by the connection of the AD pin.
After the last bit of the chip address is sent, the master
checks for the IS31FL3236’s acknowledge. The
master releases the SDA line high (through a pull-up
resistor). Then the master sends an SCL pulse. If the
IS31FL3236 has received the address correctly, then it
holds the SDA line low during the SCL pulse. If the SDA
line is not low, then the master should send a “STOP”
signal (discussed later) and abort the transfer.
The complete slave address is:
Table 1 Slave Address (Write only):
Bit
A7:A3
A2:A1
A0
Value
01111
AD
0
Following acknowledge of IS31FL3236, the register
address byte is sent, most significant bit first.
IS31FL3236 must generate another acknowledge
indicating that the register address has been received.
AD connected to GND, AD = 00;
AD connected to VCC, AD = 11;
AD connected to SCL, AD = 01;
AD connected to SDA, AD = 10;
Then 8-bit of data byte are sent next, most significant
bit first. Each data bit should be valid while the SCL
level is stable high. After the data byte is sent, the
IS31FL3236 must generate another acknowledge to
indicate that the data was received.
The SCL line is uni-directional. The SDA line is
bi-directional (open-collector) with a pull-up resistor
(typically 4.7kΩ). The maximum clock frequency
specified by the I2C standard is 400kHz. In this
discussion, the master is the microcontroller and the
slave is the IS31FL3236.
The “STOP” signal ends the transfer. To signal “STOP”,
the SDA signal goes high while the SCL signal is high.
ADDRESS AUTO INCREMENT
To write multiple bytes of data into IS31FL3236, load
the address of the data register that the first data byte
is intended for. During the IS31FL3236 acknowledge of
receiving the data byte, the internal address pointer will
increment by one. The next data byte sent to
IS31FL3236 will be placed in the new address, and so
on. The auto increment of the address will continue as
long as data continues to be written to IS31FL3236
(Figure 5).
The timing diagram for the I2C is shown in Figure 2.
The SDA is latched in on the stable high level of the
SCL. When there is no interface activity, the SDA line
should be held high.
The “START” signal is generated by lowering the SDA
signal while the SCL signal is high. The start signal will
alert all devices attached to the I2C bus to check the
incoming address against their own chip address.

The average output current may be computed using

For example: D7:D0 = 10110101,
IOUT = IMAX (20+22+24+25+27)/256
The IOUT of each channel is setting by the SL bit of LED
Control Register (26h~49h). Please refer to the detail
information in Page 11.
25h PWM Update Register
The data sent to the PWM Registers and the LED
Control Registers will be stored in temporary registers.
A write operation of “0000 0000” value to the Update

CURRENT SETTING
32
The current of each LED can be set independently by
the SL bit of LED Control Register (26h~49h). The
maximum global current is set by the external register
REXT.
When channels drive different quantity of LEDs, adjust
maximum output current according to quantity of LEDs
to ensure average current of each LED is the same.
For example, set REXT = 3.3kΩ then IMAX = 23mA. If
OUT1 drives two LEDs and OUT2 drives four LEDs, set
the SL bit of LED Control Register (26h) to “01” and SL
bit of LED Control Register (27h) to “00”. So the current
of OUT1 is IOUT1 = IMAX/2 = 11.5mA and the current of
OUT2 is IOUT2 = IMAX = 23mA. The average current of
each LED is the same.
GAMMA CORRECTION
In order to perform a better visual LED breathing effect
we recommend using a gamma corrected PWM value
to set the LED intensity. This results in a reduced
number of steps for the LED intensity setting, but
causes the change in intensity to appear more linear to
the human eye.
Gamma correction, also known as gamma
compression or encoding, is used to encode linear
luminance to match the non-linear characteristics of
display. Since the IS31FL3236 can modulate the
brightness of the LEDs with 256 steps, a gamma
correction function can be applied when computing
each subsequent LED intensity setting such that the
changes in brightness matches the human eye's
brightness curve.

Gamma Correction(32 Steps)
Choosing more gamma steps provides for a more
continuous looking breathing effect. This is useful for
very long breathing cycles. The recommended
configuration is defined by the breath cycle T. When
T=1s, choose 32 gamma steps, when T=2s, choose
64 gamma steps. The user must decide the final
number of gamma steps not only by the LED itself, but
also based on the visual performance of the finished
product.
