| S P7616 High Accuracy 4-Channel Low Side LED Driver for CCFL Replacement May 2009 Rev. 2.0.4 GENERAL DESCRIPTION The SP7616 is a 30V 4-Channel linear low side LED driver. It is capable of powering up to four LED strings of nine LEDs @ 60mA per string for a total of 36 LEDs with 1.5% typical current matching between channels. The desired LED current can be adjusted with an external resistor, and the precision string-tostring current matching ensures consistent color temperature across the whole display. The device also features very low dropout voltage to maximize system efficiency and avoid difficult thermal design constraints. Dimming can be achieved by feeding a PWM signal to the PWM pin, or use an analog signal to control the ISET current, this allows brightness control without unwanted color shifts. Fast LED current turn-on/off time allows up to 5 kHz PWM dimming frequencies with as low as 10% duty cycle, completely eliminating flicker. The built-in thermal protection prevents damage to the device under fault conditions.

The design consists of a regulator reference voltage source, current amplifier, and output driver. The precision reference voltage ensures good performance over voltage and temperature. The four outputs are tightly coupled allowing for excellent LED current matching. Figure 1 SETTING LED CURRENT The current in the LED strings is set by adjusting the RSET resistor connected between the ISET pin and ground. The LED current is set using the following the following equation. The RSET value may be determined from the The previous equation for VMOD = 0V. equation below shows the effect of using a VMOD in the circuit on the LED current. ILED (1V - VMOD ) Where: 1V = Typical ISET Voltage ILED = Where: K mA RSET K mA RSET K = Output Current Multiplication Ratio ILED is the desired LED current K = Output Current Multiplication Ratio ILED is the desired LED current VMOD is the adjustment voltage Note that this method of current control is not as precise as adjusting RSET. The voltage at the ISET pin is adjusted slightly during manufacturing to ensure that K, the output current multiplication ratio, is as accurate as possible. When the SP7616 was originally released at the end of 2006, the multiplication ratio and ISET voltage were specified separately. However, market feedback for better accuracy when using RSET alone prompted the change to the way the part is specified today. PWM DIMMING The LED dimming control is done through the PWM pin. The acceptable frequency range of this signal is 100Hz to 5kHz. The acceptable duty cycle range of the signal is 10% to 90% at 1KHZ. When the PWM pin is driven low, only the LED current sources are disabled while the rest of the chip is still enabled. ANALOG DIMMING CONTROL Besides digital PWM control, the LED current can be controlled continuously (from high to low LED current) by raising the voltage at the bottom of RSET, VMOD, from 0.0V to 1V maximum. This configuration is shown in figure 1 below. SHUTDOWN USING ISET PIN In normal operation, the voltage at ISET pin is around 1V. To ensure fast turn on at low duty cycle and high PWM frequency, only the output drivers are switching in PWM mode. However, the whole chip can be shutdown by pulling the voltage at ISET above 3V minimum. (c) 2009 Exar Corporation 7/11 Rev. 2.0.4 S P7616 High Accuracy 4-Channel Low Side LED Driver for CCFL Replacement VIN CONSIDERATIONS (IMPORTANT) The VIN pin of the SP7616 (Pin 1) needs to be connected to the anode of the LED for proper operation. If these are not tied together, the part can get into a latch condition as a result of improper sequencing. A second way the part can get into a latch condition is if the input voltage falls below 1.5V but does not fall below 0.5V before the power is re-applied. In both cases, the latch condition can be "reset" by pulling the input voltage below 0.5V for >3 seconds. This latch is similar to what one might experience with a uC if a reset was not asserted after a brown out condition. At 20mA LED current and VIN = 30V additional power dissipated in the package is equal to 600mW that will increase die temperature to 59C/W x 0.6W = 35.4C, where 59C/W is the package thermal resistance. Assuming that all other channels are working at VLED =1.5V the die temperature will be approximately 41C above ambient temperature and that decreases operating temperature range. Also to protect the part if too many LEDs are shorted, and the VLED voltage becomes to high, making the part dissipates too much power, the over temperature protection will shut the part off when the die temperature reaches approximately 150C. UNUSED CHANNELS AND LED 2 CHANNEL (PIN 7) LED 2 channel should never be grounded or left unconnected it should always be used during operation. Other unused channels can be tied to the ground to save on power consumption. OVER-TEMPERATURE PROTECTION The SP7616 has over-temperature protection to prevent permanent damage to the device. When the die temperature rises above 150C the output drivers are shut off. The output current will self recover when the temperature drops below the trip point with the preset hysteresis of 15C. Thus a part that shut off at 150C will not try to restart unless the die temperature is below 135C SHORTED LEDS If all LEDs on a string are shorted, the LED cathode voltage will be VIN. It is still a working condition for this device but it significantly increases the dissipated power.
