AL3157
HIGH EFFICIENCY 1x/2x CHARGE PUMP LED DRIVER
FOR SMALL SCREEN BACKLIGHTING AND FLASHLIGHT
NEW PRODUCT
Description
Pin Assignments
The AL3157 is a low noise, constant frequency charge
pump DC/DC converter that uses a Dual mode load switch
(1x), and doubling (2x) conversion for driving white LEDs.
Low external part count (one 1µF flying capacitor and two
2.2µF capacitors at VIN and VOUT) make this part ideally
suited for small, battery-powered applications
The AL3157 drives 3 channels at up to 30mA for small
screen backlighting and an additional channel up to 210mA
for LED Flash or LED Flashlight – All from a 2.7V to 5.5V
input.
The AL3157 uses two control inputs (EN1/2) to
enable/disable it and PWM dim the LED current. EN2
controls/PWM dims the backlight LEDs at 30mA per
channel and EN1 controls/PWM dims the Flash/Flashlight
LEDs at 210mA.
Each output is equipped with built-in protection for VOUT
short circuit and auto-disable for LED failure conditions.
Built-in soft-start circuitry prevents excessive in-rush
current during start-up and mode switching. A low-current
shutdown feature disconnects the load from VIN to reduce
quiescent current less than 1µA.
The AL3157 is available in a lead-free, space-saving
thermally enhanced 12-pin 3x3mm DFN package.

HIGH EFFICIENCY 1x/2x CHARGE PUMP LED DRIVER
FOR SMALL SCREEN BACKLIGHTING AND FLASHLIGHT
Functional Description
The AL3157 is a dual-mode high efficiency charge pump (1x and 2x) device, driving 3-channel standard backlight LEDs
and one high-current Flash/Torch LED, intended for white LED backlight applications. An internal comparator circuit
compares the voltage at each constant current sink input against a reference voltage. To ensure maximum power
efficiency, the most appropriate switching mode (1x and 2x) is automatically selected.
NEW PRODUCT
The APL3157 requires only three external components: one 1µF ceramic flying capacitor (C1) for the charge pump, one
2.2µF ceramic input capacitor (CIN), and one 2.2µF ceramic charge pump output capacitor (COUT).
The each output channel of the AL3157 can drive three individual LEDs with a maximum current of 30mA per channel and
a Flash/Torch LED with a maximum current of 210mA. These can be paralleled to give a total output current of 300mA.

Disabled Current Sinks
Unused current channels must be disabled by connecting the sinks to VOUT with only a small sense current flowing
through the disabled channel.
Soft-Start
Soft-start is incorporated to prevent excessive in-rush current during power-up, mode switching, and transitioning out of
stand-by mode.
Short-Circuit Protection
Short-circuit protection function is incorporated to prevent excessive load current when either flying cap terminals or output
pin electrically tied to a very lower voltage or ground.
Over-Voltage Protection
Over-Voltage Protection function is incorporated to limit the output voltage under a safe value to avoid on-chip device
breakdown.
Under-Voltage Lockout
Under-Voltage lockout feature disables the device when the input voltage drops below UVLO threshold.
Thermal Auto Shutdown
When the die temperature exceeds the thermal limit, the device will be disabled and enter stand-by mode. The operation
resumes whenever the die cools off sufficiently.
PWM Dimming Control
The AL3157 provides simple PWM dimming control through ENx pins, and the current is adjusted by the duty cycle of the
signal applied on ENx pin. The recommended PWM frequency is from 200Hz to 50kHz depending on applications.
