FIGURE 12. TYPICAL APPLICATION DIAGRAM
Applications Information
The ISL97645 provides a complete power solution for TFT
LCD applications. The system consists of one boost
converter to generate AVDD voltage for column drivers, one
integrated VCOM buffer which can provide up to 400mA peak
current. This part also integrates Gate Pulse Modulator
circuit that can help to optimize the picture quality.
Enable Control
When enable pin is pulling down, the ISL97645 is shut down
reducing the supply current to <10µA. When the voltage at
enable pin reaches 2.2V, the ISL97645 is on.
Boost Converter
switching frequency can save power dissipation, while
higher switching frequency can allow smaller external
components like inductor and output capacitors, etc.
Connecting FREQ pin to ground sets the PWM switching
frequency to 650MHz, or connecting FREQ pin to VIN for
1.2MHz.
Soft-Start
The soft-start is provided by an internal 2.5µA current source
to charge the external soft start capacitor. The ISL97645
ramps up current limit from 0A up to full value, as the voltage
at SS pin ramps from 0 to 1.2V. Hence the soft-start time is
4.8ms when the soft-start capacitor is 10nF, 22.6ms for 47nF
and 48ms for 100nF.
Operation
Frequency Selection
The ISL97645 switching frequency can be user selected to
operate at either constant 650kHz or 1.2MHz. Lower

The boost converter is a current mode PWM converter
operating at either a 650kHz or 1.2MHz. It can operate in
both discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) at light load and
FN9263.1

continuous mode (CCM). In continuous current mode,
current flows continuously in the inductor during the entire
switching cycle in steady state operation. The voltage
conversion ratio in continuous current mode is given by:
V Boost
1
------------------- = ------------1–D
V IN
This restricts the maximum output current (average) based
on the following equation:
ΔI L
V IN
I OMAX = ⎛ I LMT – --------⎞ × --------⎝
2 ⎠ VO
(EQ. 3)
Where ΔIL is peak to peak inductor ripple current, and is set
by:
(EQ. 1)
Where D is the duty cycle of the switching MOSFET.
V IN D
ΔI L = --------- × ---L
fs
Figure 11 shows the block diagram of the boost regulator. It
uses a summing amplifier architecture consisting of gm
stages for voltage feedback, current feedback and slope
compensation. A comparator looks at the peak inductor
current cycle by cycle and terminates the PWM cycle if the
current limit is reached.
where fS is the switching frequency (650kHz or 1.2MHz).
The Table 2 gives typical values (margins are considered
10%, 3%, 20%, 10% and 15% on VIN, VO, L, fS and IOMAX).
Capacitor
An external resistor divider is required to divide the output
voltage down to the nominal reference voltage. Current
drawn by the resistor network should be limited to maintain
the overall converter efficiency. The maximum value of the
resistor network is limited by the feedback input bias current
and the potential for noise being coupled into the feedback
pin. A resistor network in the order of 60kΩ is recommended.
The boost converter output voltage is determined by the
following equation:
R1 + R2
V Boost = --------------------- × V FB
R2
(EQ. 4)
An input capacitor is used to suppress the voltage ripple
injected into the boost converter. The ceramic capacitor with
capacitance larger than 10µF is recommended. The voltage
rating of input capacitor should be larger than the maximum
input voltage. Some capacitors are recommended in Table 1
for input capacitor.

Inductor
The boost inductor is a critical part which influences the
output voltage ripple, transient response, and efficiency.
Values of 3.3µH to 10µH are used to match the internal
slope compensation. The inductor must be able to handle
the following average and peak current:

Rectifier Diode
A high-speed diode is necessary due to the high switching
frequency. Schottky diodes are recommended because of
their fast recovery time and low forward voltage. The reverse
voltage rating of this diode should be higher than the
maximum output voltage. The rectifier diode must meet the
output current and peak inductor current requirements. The
following table is some recommendations for boost converter
diode.
TABLE 4. BOOST CONVERTER RECTIFIER DIODE
RECOMMENDATION
DIODE
Note: Capacitors have a voltage coefficient that makes their
effective capacitance drop as the voltage across then
increases. COUT in the equation above assumes the
effective value of the capacitor at a particular voltage and not
the manufacturer’s stated value, measured at zero volts.
(EQ. 5)
Some inductors are recommended in Table 3.
INDUCTOR
For low ESR ceramic capacitors, the output ripple is
dominated by the charging and discharging of the output
capacitor. The voltage rating of the output capacitor should
be greater than the maximum output voltage.

The boost converter of ISL97645 can be compensated by a
RC network connected from CM1 pin to ground. 4.7nF and
10k RC network is used in the demo board. The larger value
resistor and lower value capacitor can lower the transient
overshoot, however, at the expense of stability of the loop.
Cascaded MOSFET Application
An 20V N-channel MOSFET is integrated in the boost
regulator. For the applications where the output voltage is
greater than 20V, an external cascaded MOSFET is needed
as shown in Figure 13. The voltage rating of the external
MOSFET should be greater than AVDD.

the ripple voltage at the output. Output ripple voltage
consists of two components: the voltage drop due to the
inductor ripple current flowing through the ESR of output
capacitor, and the charging and discharging of the output
capacitor.

Gate Pulse Modulator Circuit
The gate pulse modulator circuit functions as a three way
multiplexer, switching VGHM between ground, VDD1 and
VGH. Voltage selection is provided by digital inputs VDPM
(enable) and VFLK (control). High to low delay and slew
control is provided by external components on pins CE and
RE, respectively. A block diagram of the gate pulse
modulator circuit is shown in Figure 14.
When VDPM is LOW, the block is disabled and VGHM is
grounded. When VDPM is HIGH, the output is determined
by VFLK. When VFLK goes high, VGHM is pulled to VGH by
a 70Ω switch. When VFLK goes low, there is a delay
controlled by capacitor CE, following which VGHM is driven
to VDD1, with a slew rate controlled by resistor RE. Note
that VDD1 is used only as a reference voltage for an
amplifier, thus does not have to source or sink a significant
DC current.

Low to high transition is determined primarily by the switch
resistance and the external capacitive load. High to low
transition is more complex. Take the case where the block is
already enabled (VDPM is H). When VFLK is H, pin CE is
grounded. On the falling edge of VFLK, a current is passed
into pin CE, to charge an external capacitor to 1.2V. This
creates a delay, equal to CE*4200. At this point, the output
begins to pull down from VGH to VDD1. The slew current is
equal to 300/(RE+5000)*Load Capacitance.

VCOM Amplifier
The VCOM amplifier is designed to control the voltage on the
back plate of an LCD display. This plate is capacitively
coupled to the pixel drive voltage which alternately cycles
positive and negative at the line rate for the display. Thus the
amplifier must be capable of sourcing and sinking capacitive
pulses of current, which can occasionally be quite large (a
few 100mA for typical applications).
The ISL97645 VCOM amplifier's output current is limited to
400mA. This limit level, which is roughly the same for
sourcing and sinking, is included to maintain reliable
operation of the part. It does not necessarily prevent a large
temperature rise if the current is maintained. (In this case the
whole chip may be shut down by the thermal trip to protect
functionality.) If the display occasionally demands current
pulses higher than this limit, the reservoir capacitor will
provide the excess and the amplifier will top the reservoir
capacitor back up once the pulse has stopped. This will
happen on the µs time scale in practical systems and for
pulses 2 or 3 times the current limit, the VCOM voltage will
have settled again before the next line is processed.

FIGURE 16. START-UP SEQUENCE
An internal temperature sensor continuously monitors the
die temperature. In the event that die temperature exceeds
the thermal trip point, the device will shut down and disable
itself. The upper and lower trip points are typically set to
+140°C and +100°C respectively.
When VIN exceeds 2.5V and ENABLE reaches the VIH
threshold value, Boost converter starts up, and gate pulse
modulator circuit output holds until VDPM goes to high. Note
that there is a DC path in the boost converter from the input
to the output through the inductor and diode, hence the input
voltage will be seen at output with a forward voltage drop of
diode before the part is enabled. If this voltage is not desired,

Layout Recommendation
The device’s performance including efficiency, output noise,
transient response and control loop stability is dramatically
affected by the PCB layout. PCB layout is critical, especially
at high switching frequency.
There are some general guidelines for layout:
1. Place the external power components (the input
capacitors, output capacitors, boost inductor and output
diodes, etc.) in close proximity to the device. Traces to
these components should be kept as short and wide as
possible to minimize parasitic inductance and resistance.
2. Place VIN and VDD bypass capacitors close to the pins.
3. Reduce the loop area with large AC amplitudes and fast
slew rate.
4. The feedback network should sense the output voltage
directly from the point of load, and be as far away from LX
node as possible.
5. The power ground (PGND) and signal ground (SGND)
pins should be connected at only one point.
6. The exposed die plate, on the underneath of the
package, should be soldered to an equivalent area of
metal on the PCB. This contact area should have multiple
via connections to the back of the PCB as well as
connections to intermediate PCB layers, if available, to
maximize thermal dissipation away from the IC.
7. To minimize the thermal resistance of the package when
soldered to a multi-layer PCB, the amount of copper track
and ground plane area connected to the exposed die
plate should be maximized and spread out as far as
possible from the IC. The bottom and top PCB areas
especially should be maximized to allow thermal
dissipation to the surrounding air.
8. A signal ground plane, separate from the power ground
plane and connected to the power ground pins only at the
exposed die plate, should be used for ground return
connections for control circuit.
9. Minimize feedback input track lengths to avoid switching
noise pick-up.
A demo board is available to illustrate the proper layout
implementation.
