8. Application design-in information
8.1 Minimizing I
DD
when the I/Os are used to control LEDs
When the I/Os are used to control LEDs, they are normally connected to V
DD
through a
resistor as shown in Figure 13. Since the LED acts as a diode, when the LED is off the
I/O V
I
is about 1.2 V less than V
DD
. The supply current, I
DD
, increases as V
I
becomes
lower than V
DD
and is specified as I
DD
in Table 12 “Static characteristics”.
Designs needing to minimize current consumption, such as battery power applications,
should consider maintaining the I/O pins greater than or equal to V
DD
when the LED is off.
Figure 14 shows a high value resistor in parallel with the LED. Figure 15 shows V
DD
less
than the LED supply voltage by at least 1.2 V. Both of these methods maintain the I/O V
I
at or above V
DD
and prevent additional supply current consumption when the LED is off.

8.2 Programming example
The following example will show how to set LED0 to blink at 1 Hz at a 50 % duty cycle.
LED1 will be set to be dimmed at 25 % of their maximum brightness (duty cycle = 25 %).
