Description of internal registers

STCF03

22/35

8.8

AUXI_0~3

This 4 bits register defines the AUX LED current from 0 to 20 mA. See AUX LED Dimming

Table for reference. Loading any value between 1 and 15 also starts the AUX LED current

source timer, if enabled. The AUX LED current source is active only in Ready Mode, and is

deactivated in any other mode.

8.9

AUXT_0~3

This 4 bit register controls the timer that defines the ON-time of the AUX LED current

source. ON-time starts when the AUXI register is loaded with any value other than zero, and

stops after the time defined in the AUXT register. Values from 1 to 14 of the AUXT register

correspond to an ON-time of the AUX LED ranging from 100 to 1400 ms in 100 ms steps.

The value 15 puts the AUX LED to the continuous light mode. The activation/deactivation of

the AUX LED current source is controlled using only the AUXI register.
