LED driver 6 click

LED driver 6 Click is a high brightness LED or LED strip driver, designed to be used in tunable Smart Connected Lighting (SCL) applications. It is based on the AL1781, a single-channel PWM dimmable linear LED driver.

Click library

• Author : MikroE Team
• Date : jan 2020.
• Type : PWM type

Software Support

We provide a library for the Leddriver6 Click as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.

Package can be downloaded/installed directly form compilers IDE(recommended way), or downloaded from our LibStock, or found on mikroE github account.

Library Description

This library contains API for Leddriver6 Click driver.

Standard key functions :

• Config Object Initialization function.

void leddriver6_cfg_setup ( leddriver6_cfg_t *cfg );

• Initialization function.

LEDDRIVER6_RETVAL leddriver6_init ( leddriver6_t *ctx, leddriver6_cfg_t *cfg );

Example key functions :

• Generic sets PWM duty cycle.

void leddriver6_set_duty_cycle ( leddriver6_t *ctx, pwm_data_t duty_cycle );

• Stop PWM module.

void leddriver6_pwm_stop ( leddriver6_t *ctx );

• Start PWM module.

void leddriver6_pwm_start ( leddriver6_t *ctx );

Examples Description

This application designed to be used in tunable Smart Connected Lighting applications.

The demo application is composed of two sections :

Application Init

Initialization driver init and pwm init for LED.

void application_init ( void )
{
    log_cfg_t log_cfg;
    leddriver6_cfg_t cfg;

    log_cfg.level = LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG;
    LOG_MAP_USB_UART( log_cfg );
    log_init( &logger, &log_cfg );
    log_info( &logger, "---- Application Init ----" );

    leddriver6_cfg_setup( &cfg );
    LEDDRIVER6_MAP_MIKROBUS( cfg, MIKROBUS_1 );
    leddriver6_init( &leddriver6, &cfg );

    leddriver6_pwm_start( &leddriver6 );
}
  

Application Task

Waits for valid user input and executes functions based on set of valid commands.

void application_task ( void )
{
  uint8_t cnt;

  if ( duty_cycle > leddriver6.pwm_period )
  {
      duty_cycle = 100;
  }
  
  leddriver6_set_duty_cycle ( &leddriver6, duty_cycle );
  duty_cycle += 50;
  Delay_100ms( );
  
  increase( );
  Delay_10ms( );
  decrease( );
  Delay_10ms( );
  current_pg_voltage( );

  for( cnt = 0; cnt < 5; cnt++ )
  {
      increase( );
      Delay_10ms( );
  }
  for( cnt = 0; cnt < 3; cnt++ )
  {
      decrease( );
      Delay_10ms( );
  }
  current_pg_voltage( );

  Delay_1s( );
}  

The full application code, and ready to use projects can be installed directly form compilers IDE(recommneded) or found on LibStock page or mikroE GitHub accaunt.

Other mikroE Libraries used in the example:

• MikroSDK.Board
• MikroSDK.Log
• Click.Leddriver6

Additional notes and informations

Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART click, USB UART 2 Click or RS232 Click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. The terminal available in all Mikroelektronika compilers, or any other terminal application of your choice, can be used to read the message.
