Abstract

An apparatus for driving LED display includes a plurality of phase locked loop circuits. Each of the phase locked loop circuits includes a divider configured to receive the voltage controlled output signal and generate the feedback signal, a memory configured to generate a modulation profile codes and a sigma delta block. The divider receives a randomized numbers so as to change a dividing ratio over a modulation period. The sigma delta block includes at least one sigma delta modulator and at least one gain block. The sigma delta block is configured to receive the modulation profile codes and generate the randomized numbers to the divider. Each of the at least one gain block is configured to generate a value that is multiplied to at least one of the at least one sigma delta modulator so as to change a spread spectrum modulation depth.
