Minimum (MIN) and Maximum (MAX) limits are specified by design, test, or statistical analysis. Typical numbers are not verified, but do represent the most likely norm.
Output Current Accuracy is the difference between the actual value of the output current and programmed value of this current. Matching is the maximum difference from the average. For the constant current sinks on the part (OUT1 to OUT6), the following are determined: the maximum output current (MAX), the minimum output current (MIN), and the average output current of all outputs (AVG). Two matching numbers are calculated: (MAX-AVG)/AVG and (AVG-MIN/AVG). The largest number of the two (worst case) is considered the matching figure. The typical specification provided is the most likely norm of the matching figure for all parts. Note that some manufacturers have different definitions in use.
Verified by design and not tested in production.
Saturation voltage is defined as the voltage when the LED current has dropped 10% from the value measured at 1 V.
