Slope and Dithering

During transition between two brightness (PWM) values special dithering scheme is used if the slope is enabled.

It allows increased resolution and smaller average steps size. Dithering is not used in steady state condition.

Slope time can be programmed with EEPROM bits <SLOPE[3:0]> from 0 to 500 ms. Same slope time is used for

sloping up and down. Advanced slope makes brightness changes smooth for the eye. Dithering can be

programmed with EEPROM bits <DITHER[1:0]> from 0 to 3 bits. Example below is for 1-bit dithering, e.g., for 3-

bit dithering, every 8th pulse is made 1 LSB longer to increase the average value by 1/8 of LSB.
