8.3.3 Slope and Advanced Slope

The transition time between two brightness values can be programmed with the STEP bits from 0 to 200 ms. The

same slope time is used for sloping up and down. With advanced slope the brightness changes can be made

more pleasing to a human eye. It is implemented with a digital smoothing filter. The filter strength is set with

SMOOTH bits.

8.3.4 LED String Count Auto Detection

The LP8557 and LP8557I can auto-detect the number of the LED strings attached. During the auto-detect

routine, the devices automatically remove the unused current sink(s) and adjust the phasing of the remaining

current sinks. The LED OPEN* fault condition is not supported with auto-detect function enabled. On the

LP8557I, the user may disable the function by setting CONFIG.AUTO bit to 0 via an I2C write.
