It is a fully integrated high-brightness (HB) LED driver solution that does not require external power devices to complete the backlighting design criteria. The A8511 integrates FETs for a boost converter as well as four 150 mA current sinks, offering a complete integrated solution at HB LED current levels. LED channels can be tied together for up to 600 mA sink capability. It can work from a single power supply of 6.8 to 21 V and withstand up to 40 V. The boost converter is a constant frequency, current-mode converter. Operating frequency can be set to 2 MHz avoiding interference with the AM radio band. The integrated boost DMOS switch is rated for 40 V at 3.6 A. PWM dimming allows LED currents to be controlled up to a 1000:1 ratio. Additional 4:1 dimming can be achieved by using the DIM pin. The A8511 provides protection against output connector shorts through an integrated output disconnect switch. An optional external thermistor can be used to limit LED current based on panel temperature. The device is supplied in a surface mount, 28-pin TSSOP package (suffix LP), with exposed thermal pad for enhanced thermal dissipation. It is lead (Pb) free, with 100% matte-tin leadframe plating. Applications include: GPS navigation systems Automotive infotainment Back-up camera displays Cluster backlighting Portable DVD players Industrial LCD displays Package: 28-pin TSSOP with exposed thermal pad (package LP) Not to scale Typical Application D1 VBAT CBAT 4.7 F 35 V Figure 1.

It uses a current mode boost converter which operates at a constant frequency. The boost switching frequency can be set from 600 kHz to 2.2 MHz by an external resistor connected across FSET and AGND. The integrated boost DMOS switch is rated for 40 V at 3.6 A. This switch is protected against overvoltage, and provides pulse-by-pulse current limiting independently of boost converter duty cycle. The A8511 has 4 well-matched current sinks, which provide regulated current through the load LEDs for uniform display brightness. All LEDx sinks are rated for 21 V to allow PWM dimming control. Frequency Selection The switching frequency on the SW pin, fSW , can be set by applying the following equation: fSW = 51 / RFSET , (1) where fSW is in MHz, and RFSET is in k. LED Selection Which LED strings are enabled is determined by the combined settings of the SEL1 and SEL2 pins, according to the following table: LED Channel Selection SEL1 Pin SEL2 Pin Enabled LEDx Outputs Low Low Only LED1 High Low LED1 and LED2 Low High LED1, LED2, and LED3 High High All channels LED strings that are connected to the A8511, but are not enabled through the SELx pins, may cause a shutdown if the voltage on 8511-DS the corresponding LEDx pins exceeds VLEDSC . Refer to the LED Short Detect section for further details. Unused LEDx pins can be left open or connected to ground. Use matched forward voltage LEDs for better efficiency. The application circuit shown in figure 1 is a boost converter and the output voltage is always higher than the battery voltage. Therefore, the quantity of LEDs per string should be such that the required output voltage is higher than the maximum battery voltage. If the battery voltage is higher than the output voltage, the A8511 will switch with minimum pulse width, and the actual output voltage will be higher than the required voltage. The excess voltage will be dropped across the LED strings. This lowers efficiency and increases power dissipation, resulting in higher device temperature. If battery voltage must be higher than required output voltage, use a SEPIC converter, as shown in figure 9. Soft-Start and Compensation At startup, the output capacitor is discharged and the A8511 enters soft start. The boost current is limited to 0.6 A and all active LEDx pins sink 1/20 of the set current until all the enabled LEDx pins reach 0.75 V. When the A8511 comes out of soft start, the boost current and the LEDx pin currents are set to normal. The output capacitor charges to voltage required to supply full LEDx currents within a few cycles. Once VOUT reaches the required level, LEDx current toggles between 0 and 100% in response to PWM signals. Soft start behavior on evaluation boards is shown in the Performance Characteristics section.

Connect a resistor, RISET, between this pin and AGND to set the reference current level, IISET , according to the following formula: IISET = 1.235 / RISET , (2) where IISET is in mA and RISET is in k. This current is multiplied internally with a gain of 960, and mirrored on all enabled LED pins. This sets the maximum current through the LEDs, referred as the 100% current. Dimming The LED current can be reduced from the 100% current level by three alternative dimming methods: * PWM dimming using the EN pin. PWM dimming is performed by applying an external PWM signal on the EN pin. When the EN pin is pulled high, the A8511 turns on and all enabled LEDs sink 100% current. The sequence is shown in figure 2. For optimal accuracy, the external PWM signal should be in the range 100 to 300 Hz. The slight delay between PWM signal and the LED current causes an error. To compensate for the error, a small turn-on delay should be added to the PWM signal as shown on page 10 of the Performance Characteristics section. When EN is pulled low, the boost converter and LED sinks are turned off. The compensation (COMP) pin is floated, and critical internal circuits are kept active. If EN is pulled low for more than tPWML , the device enters shutdown mode and clears all internal fault registers. As an example, for a 2 MHz clock, the maximum PWM low period while avoiding shutdown is 65 ms. circuit increases the output voltage until it reaches the overvoltage protection level. The OVP event causes any LED string that is not in regulation to be locked-out from regulating the loop. By removing the open LED from controlling the boost, the output voltage returns to normal operating voltage. Every OVP event retests all LED strings. An EN low signal does not reset the LED string regulation lock unless it shuts down the device (exceeds tPWML). The locked-out LED pins always attempt to sink desired current regardless of lock-out state. LED Short Detect Any LED pin that has a voltage exceeding VLEDSC will force the device to disable the boost circuit and LEDx outputs until EN shuts down the A8511 (EN low exceeds tPWML). This protects the LEDx pins from potentially hazardous voltages when multiple LEDs are shorted in one string. Overvoltage Protection The A8511 has overvoltage protection (OVP) and open Schottky diode protection. The OVP has a default level of 19.5 V and can be increased up to 38 V by the selection of an external resistor, as shown in figure 3. When the current though OVP pin exceeds 200 A, the OVP comparator goes low. When VOUT falls and current through the OVP pin drops below 165 A, the OVP is released. D1 VBATT VOUT SW SW SW COUT A8511 * Analog dimming using the DIM pin. When the DIM pin is pulled low, the LED sinks draw 100 % current; when the pin is pulled high, the LED current level drops to 25%. ROVP Latch * Analog dimming using the VTI pin. External DC voltage can be applied to the VTI pin to control LED current. LED current varies as a function of voltage on the VTI pin. This configuration is shown in figure 5. - + 1.23 V OVP 18 V - + EN External PWM Signal Turn-on delay ILEDX OVP Disable 100% Current 0 mA Figure 2.

A8511 has secondary overvoltage protection to protect internal switches in the event of an open diode condition. Open Schottky diode detection is implemented by detecting overvoltage on the SW pin. If voltage on the SW pin exceeds the device safe operating voltage rating, the A8511 disables and remains latched. The IC must shut down before it can be reenabled. Overcurrent Protection The boost switch is protected with pulse-by-pulse current limiting at 3.6 A. The output disconnect switch protects against output overcurrent. At 1.35 A typical, the A8511 disables. This process is detailed in the Disconnect Switch Overcurrent Fault Timing diagram in the Performance Characteristics section, page 14. In some instances, when the LEDs are connected by long wires and also some output capacitance (such as ESD capacitors) is present, a clamping diode on the output must be used. This diode will prevent the output from momentarily going negative during a short circuit condition. The diode must be chosen such that its reverse breakdown voltage is higher than normal operating voltage and its reverse current leakage is small. Please refer to the application note Output Diode Clamping for the A8511 for more details. Input UVLO When VIN rises above the UVLO enable hyster- esis (VUVLO(th) + VUVLO(hys) ), the A8511 is enabled. It is disabled when VIN falls below VUVLO(th) for more than 50 s. This lag is to avoid shutting down because of momentary glitches in the power supply. Input OVLO When VIN rises above VOVLO(th) for more than 50 s, the A8511 is disabled, the boost converter shuts down instantly, and LED current falls gradually with the CAP pin capacitor. When VIN falls below VOVLO(th) and EN is high, the device is reenabled. Thermal Derating Thermal derating can be achieved by connecting an NTC thermistor between VTI and ground, as shown in figure 5. When the A8511 is enabled and VTI > 1.1 V, 100% current for the LEDs is controlled by the ISET and DIM pins. When VTI falls below 1.1 V, VISET starts to follow VTI , resulting in ILEDX varying proportionately with VTI represented by the overlap of the dotted and solid curves. The proportion of ILED to VTI , when LED current is controlled through the VTI pin, is calculated as: IILEDx = 960 x VTI / RISET , (4) where ILEDx is the LEDx pin current in mA, and RISET is in k. There is a hysteresis built into the VTI pin circuit, so while VTI is decreasing, there is a delay before proportional change begins if VTI pin voltage starts above 1.1 V. When VTI starts below 1.1 V, or falls below 1.1 V during operation and then starts increasing again VISET will follow VTI until the voltage reaches 1.23 V.

Connect a CBIAS capacitor with a value in the range of 0.1 to 1 F. Efficiency Considerations For better efficiency, use a high quality inductor with relatively low DCR and core loss. Use a low forward voltage Schottky diode with relatively low junction capacitance. Use matched forward voltage LEDs for better efficiency. The A8511 provides an output disconnect function through a load switch that is connected from the boost converter output (CAP) to LED connection (OUT). This function protects the system against short circuit conditions from common anode LED connection to ground, for both boost and SEPIC configurations. When comparing the efficiency of the A8511 with an alternate implementation requiring an external input/output disconnect function, the additional power dissipation in this disconnect switch must be considered for a proper comparison. To bypass the disconnect switch, short the CAP pin to the OUT pin to have a direct connection from the boost regulator to the common anode LED node. When the disconnect switch is bypassed, both the boost and the SEPIC implementations are not protected against output short circuit conditions. Audible Noise Considerations Multilayer ceramic capacitors cause audible noise when subjected to voltage ripple in the audio frequency range, due to the piezoelectric effect. Ceramic capacitors connected across boost converters can also cause audible noise due to voltage ripple at dimming frequencies. During the PWM dimming off-time, the voltage across the capacitors drops due to leakage through the output disconnect switch and the OVP pin. This voltage is regulated to the desired output level during the PWM dimming on-time. This voltage ripple may cause audible noise. 8511-DS Audible noise can be minimized with higher dimming frequency, but at higher dimming frequencies accuracy may be affected, as shown in the Performance Characteristics section. It is recommended to use 200 Hz for optimum performance. Selecting a sufficiently large capacitor across the boost output can reduce voltage ripple and noise. It is observed that the audible noise below 250 mV ripple is negligible. The value to select for a boost capacitor can be calculated using the following formula: C Ilk (1 - DFPWMmin) fPWM . (5) 0.25 where Ilk is the leakage current; select Ilk = 165 A at a 30 V output and 175 A at a 40 V output, DFPWMmin is the minimum dimming PWM duty cycle, and fPWM is the dimming frequency; typically 200 Hz. For example, if the dimming frequency is 200 Hz, the minimum dimming PWM duty cycle = 10%, and VOUT = 30 V, then select the boost capacitor as: C = 165 A (1 - 0.1) 200 0.25 = 3 F . The capacitance of ceramic capacitors drops with DC bias. Use an appropriate capacitor to get at least 3 F at 30 V. The selection of a ripple voltage of 0.25 V is based on a typical MLCC. This ripple level depends on the type and construction of the MLCC. Increase the boost capacitor if noise exists at 0.25 V.

Select a common value: 14.7 k, 1%. 4. Select resistor RFSET (connected between pin FSET and AGND). Given: Assumptions For the purposes of this example, the following are given as the application requirements: RFSET = 51 /fSW , (7) for a 2 MHz switching frequency, select: * VBAT: 8 to 18 V RFSET = 51 / 2 = 25.5 k , 1%. * Quantity of LED channels, #CHANNELS : 3 5. Select resistor ROVP (connect to the OVP pin to set the OVP level, VOUT(max)). Given Vf (max) = 3.4 V, 0.75 V as the VLED regulation level, and worst case output disconnect switch voltage drop, then: * Quantity of series LEDs per channel, #SERIESLEDS : 8 * LED current per channel, ILED: 80 mA * Total current all channels, IOUT = ILED x #CHANNELS * Vf at 80 mA: 3 to 3.4 V VOUT(max) = (Vf (max) x #SERIESLEDS ) + VLED + (RODS(on) x ILED x #CHANNELS ) . * fSW: 2 MHz (8) * TA(max): 65C Substituting: Dimming The A8511 can work with wide range of PWM fre- VOUT(max) = (3.4 x 8 + 0.75) + (4 x 0.08 x 3) = 28.91 V . quencies. A small delay between the PWM signal and the LED current may have a noticeable effect at high PWM frequencies combined with low PWM duty cycles. For example, at 100 Hz and 10% PWM duty cycle, the PWM on-period is 1 ms. In that period, the delay causes only a 0.6% error. If the PWM frequency is 1 kHz, this error is 6%. However, the error caused by the turnon delay can be decreased by increasing the applied PWM duty cycle as shown on page 10 in the Performance Characteristics section. Procedure The procedure consists of selecting the appropriate configuration and then the individual component values, in an ordered sequence. 2. Connect LEDs to pins LED1 through LED3 (leave pin LED4 open). 3. Select resistor RISET (connected between pin ISET and AGND). Given ILED = 80 mA and AISET = 960, then: RISET = 1.235 / (0.080 / 960) = 14.82 k . 8511-DS (9) Substituting: ROVP = (33 - 19.5) / 200 x 10-6 = 68 k . (10) 6. Select inductor L1. This should assume a maximum boost converter duty cycle, D(max), at VBAT(min) and 90% efficiency, . (11) D(max) = 1- (8 x 0.9) / 28.91 = 75% . * connect pin SEL1 to ground Substituting: ROVP = (VOVP - VOVP(th) ) / IOVPH . D(max) = 1- (VBAT(min) x ) / VOUT(max) 1. Identify the SELx pins to use. For 3 channels: * connect pin SEL2 to VTO RISET = 1.235 / (ILED / AISET ) . The switch resistance RODS(on) can be found in the electrical table and is listed as worst case at 4 at high temperatures. To set the output OVP level to 33 V, given an IOVPH of 200 A, and VOVP(th) = 19.5 V: (6) Then calculate maximum switch on-time: ton(max) = D(max) / fSW (12) = 0.75 / 2 x 106 = 375 ns . Maximum input current can be calculated as: IBAT = (VOUT(max) x IOUT) / (VBAT(min) x ) (13) IBAT(max) = [28.91 x (0.080 x 3)] / (8 x 0.9) = 963 mA.

Select input capacitor CIN, given: Set inductor ripple at 30% of IBAT(max): IL = IBAT(max) x ILripple(Ideal) . (14) Substituting: CIN = 0.3 / (8 x 2 x 106 x 0.01 x 8) = 0.23 F . VBAT(min) = L x IL x fSW / D , 8 = L x 0.289 x 2 (15) / 0.75, and Select a common value: L(used) = 10 H. It is recommended to select an inductor that can handle a DC current level that is greater than 963 mA, at the peak current level (saturation) of 963 mA + 289 mA / 2 = 1.11 A. This is to ensure that the inductor does not saturate at any steady state or transient condition, within specified temperature and tolerance ranges. Inductor saturation level decreases with increasing temperature. It is advisable to use a inductor with a saturation level of 2.0 A. The inductor should have a low DC resistance (DCR) and core loss for better efficiency. 7. Select output capacitor COUT, given: fPWM = 100 Hz , (16) assuming 20% minimum dimming PWM duty cycle, DPWM(min) , and the maximum leakage current through the output disconnect switch at VOUT = 28 V is 165 A and VCOUTripple = 0.25 V. Select the output capacitor as: COUT = Ilk x (1 - DPWM(min)) / (fPWM x VCOUTripple ) . (17) Substituting: IINRMS = (IOUT x r) / [(1 - D) x 121/2 ], (23) = [(80 mA x 3 )x 0.3] / [(1 - 0.75) x 3.46] = 83 mA . Select a capacitor with an RMS current rating greater than 83 mA. 9. Select the boost diode D1 (connect between the SW pins and the output). D1 should be a Schottky diode with low forward drop and junction capacitance. The diode reverse voltage rating should be greater than VOUT. A 40 to 50 V diode rating is recommended. The diode DC current rating should be greater than IOUT and the peak repetitive current rating should be > IBAT(max) + IL / 2. 10. Select the compensation capacitor CCOMP (connect between the COMP pin and ground). Typically, use a 1 F capacitor to reduce audio hum during PWM dimming. 11. Calculate Power Loss. Calculate power loss at various operating conditions to estimate worst-case power dissipation. a) Loss in LED drive: COUT = 165 Ax (1 - 0.2) / (100 x 0.25) = 5.3 F . (18) Select 6.8 F. The RMS current through COUT is given by: D(max) + (r / 12) 1/2 , Crms = IOUT x 1- D r = IL / IBAT(max) , and . ILEDx x VLEDx for one string + (ILEDx x VLEDx(av) +0.75 x quantity of remaining enabled LED strings), (19) where: (20) (21) Substituting: (80 mA x 3 )x {[0.75 + (0.3 / 12)]/(1-0.75)}1/2 = 0.422 A . Select a capacitor with an RMS current rating greater than 0.422 A. 8511-DS Select a 2.2 F or higher, 35 or 50 V, ceramic capacitor, X5R or X7R grade. The RMS current through CIN is given by: L = 10.4 H . VBAT(min) x D IL = L(used) x fSW (22) where VINripple is the input ripple voltage, which can be assumed to be 1% of VBAT. Then: IL = 0.3 x 963 = 289 mA . Given, during switch on-time: x106 CIN = IL / (8 x fSW x VINripple ) , (24) where VLEDx is the regulation voltage of the LEDx pins, 0.75 V typical, and worst-case drop is mismatch due to LED Vf. A good approximation for VLEDx(av) is 0.8 V. This assumes that some of the remaining strings will regulate below, and some above, a value of 1.55 V. If the predicted LED matching is tighter, then a lower value can be used. If the predicted LED mismatch is large, then a higher value should be used. To get the complete and accurate power dissipation, the user will need to measure each individual LED pin to get the exact VLED voltage: (80 mA x 0.75) + [80 mA x 2 x (0.8 + 0.75)] = 0.308 W .
