The IC translates an input voltage at the CTL lead into a
duty cycle at the OUTPUT lead. The transfer function
incorporates ON Semiconductor’s patented Voltage
Compensation method to keep the average voltage and
current across the load constant regardless of fluctuations in
the supply voltage. The duty cycle is varied based upon the
