Using a microcontroller (MCU) to control the red/green/blue (RGB) color LEDs increases system flexibility and functionality for the next generation of lighting applications, architectural/entertainment lighting or LCD backlighting, that require a smart and adaptive control methodology to ensure optimized color space rendering for various display contents, excellent color contrast for realistic display scene and a consistent color setting in manufacturing. In many cases, these new applications are controlled by a central control unit that requires a connectivity interface that can be implemented at a low cost using MCU-based lighting controller. A compact light-box with more than a million display colors is implemented to demonstrate the advantages of using MCU to control RGB color LEDs with different luminosity settings. The average current through each color LED is controlled by an individual PWM signal generated from MCU and the LED luminosity is almost in linear relationship with the pulse width of the driving PWM signal. The final display color is determined on the mix of light emitted by RGB LEDs, so one of the simple methods to set the light source in different color is changing the RGB PWM duty cycles equal to the corresponding mixing ratio required for a particular color. In addition, a serial control protocol with user interface is also developed as a communication link to control and monitor system parameters through a personal computer. All hardware schematic diagrams and firmware source codes are available as reference materials. 1.2 Features • • • • • • • Apply for architectural/entertainment lighting or LCD backlighting applications Exceptional color mixing Pre-set or dynamic RGB colors High resolution on dimming control Automatic white balance tracking on dimming Flexible connectivity interface User friendly control menu LED Lighting Control using the MC9S08AW60, Rev. 1 Freescale Semiconductor 7 Introduction 1.3 System Overview A block diagram of the system is shown in Figure 1-1.

This connector is a 2.5 mm, center positive connector. Voltage supplied through this connector should be positive 12 volts DC. This is also the supply voltage for the LED light box. The DEMO9S08AW60LED can be run with VDD set to 5 or 3 volts. To run the board at 3V, move jumper JP1 to the 1-2, 3V position. LED D5 turns green to let you know that power has been correctly applied to the board. 2.6 Reset Switch The reset switch (SW5) provides a way to apply a reset to the MCU. The reset switch is connected directly to the RESET signal of the MCU. A 10 kΩ pullup resistor to VDD on the RESET signal allows for normal operation. When the reset switch is pressed, the RESET signal is grounded and the MCU recognizes a reset. 2.7 Clock Source An on-board 16 MHz crystal (X1) is connected between the XTAL and EXTAL pins of the MCU. This offers flexibility on clock source selection. Refer to the MC9S08AW60 data sheet for details on how to use the internal clock generation (ICG) module to generate the system clocks for the MCU. 2.8 RS-232 An RS-232 translator provides RS-232 communication on COM connector P2.

For examples, the signal generated by an optical sensor in LED backlight system should be scaled to a level matched with the ADC input range without any saturation. Each operational amplifier can be configured as an inverting or non-inverting amplifier with variable gain setting by different resistor connections. A RC filter is also connected at each output for noise filtering.

Therefore, the ideal source for LED driving is a constant current source. A linear type LED driver is used in this reference design and the block diagram is shown in Figure 2-4. The major advantage of linear driver is fast turn ON and OFF response times to support high frequency PWM dimming method and wide range control on dimming level. An integrated DC-to-DC boost converter (MC34063) generates the high voltage required for LED driving in series and is shared with RGB channels, but the drawback is the power loss on R channel is higher than G or B channels. Individual DC-to-DC block should be used for each channel in power sensitive applications.

DC-to-DC Boost Converter and Linear LED Driver Eight pieces of 3-in-1 RGB LED chips connected in series are used to form the multi-color light source. The LED chips are arranged in 2 x 4 format and each RGB LED string is driven by a separated constant current source. The average current through each RGB LED is controlled by an individual PWM signal generated from MCU. The final output color is determined by the mix of light emitted by RGB LEDs that are almost in linear relationship with PWM pulse width. An optical diffuser film should be placed on top of the display window for color mixing and brightness uniformity enhancement. 2.11 LED Driver Design Procedures This section presents guidelines for selecting external components for DC-to-DC boost converter and linear drivers. 2.11.1 RGB LED Chip The system is designed to drive eight pieces of RGB LED chips connected in a series. Assume the LED current for each color is 50mA and forward voltage is 2.3V for red LED and 3.3V for green and blue LEDs. LED Lighting Control using the MC9S08AW60, Rev. 1 Freescale Semiconductor 19 Hardware Description 2.11.2 Current Sense Resistor The value of the current sense resistor RS is determined by two factors: power dissipation on RS and the reference level VREF for operational amplifier non-inverting input. Smaller RS reduces power dissipation, but the detection of a feedback signal in operational amplifier is more difficult. The voltage VRS across the current sense resistor RS is directly proportional to the current ILED through LED. In closed-loop condition, VRS is equal to the reference level VREF, so the LED current ILED is equal to the reference voltage VREF divided by the current sense resistor RS. Setting VREF to 1V and RS equals 20Ω, the LED current ILED is equal to 50mA. Power dissipation on RS is around 50mW, I2R = (50mA)2 × 20Ω, which is reasonable compared to total LED power. 2.11.3 Boost Converter The switching regulator MC34063 from On Semiconductor is a monolithic circuit containing the primary functions required for DC-to-DC converters. It can be incorporated in boost converter application with minimum number of external components. Boost Converter Calculations: Output voltage VOUT > (VLED x 8) + VRS + VDROP (set maximum linear drop to 2 V) Output current Iout > 50 mA x 3 Set Vin = 12 V, Vout = 30 V, and Iout = 175 mA Refer to equations in Figure 2-4 to calculate the values for inductor and other external components.

LED Lighting Control using the MC9S08AW60, Rev. 1 Freescale Semiconductor 21 Hardware Description LED Lighting Control using the MC9S08AW60, Rev. 1 22 Freescale Semiconductor Chapter 3 Firmware Description 3.1 Introduction The MCU firmware in this LED lighting control design is responsible for: • Controlling timer channels for the RGB LED color PWM output • Communicating with the host PC for receiving command and data input/output • Operating as a standalone LED box through on board buttons Figure 3-1 and Figure 3-2 shows the firmware flow. The LED box can operate in PC control operation mode or standalone operation mode. Initialization No PC Control Mode Operation? Yes Display control menu through SCI *Standalone demo box without PC control Enable I/O for PCB button detection No Valid command from PC? No Yes Process commands and adjust PWM output Any PCB button pressed? Yes Adjust PWM output according to button event Figure 3-1. Firmware Flow: Main Program LED Lighting Control using the MC9S08AW60, Rev. 1 Freescale Semiconductor 23 Firmware Description PWM value input to one channel Auto White balance? No Yes Prompt for green channel PWM input and calculate the two remaining channels’ PWM values according to existing color temperature Get the other two channel values from user input Adjust PWM width in next PWM cycle Figure 3-2. Firmware Flow: PWM Adjustment 3.2 PC Control Mode Every time the MCU is powered up, the firmware detects the status of SW1. The LED lighting control box is operated in PC control mode if SW1 is not being pressed. In this mode, you control the LED output through the host PC. The MCU uses the serial communication interface (SCI) module to communicate to the COM port of the host PC. After entering this mode, the MCU sends out a number of string characters to the PC COM port. These strings are the contents of the user interface menu displayed in the PC screen. This user interface menu guides you on how to control the LED box by different function keys. The MCU also sends out existing PWM control parameters to the host for display. For examples, parameters such as existing RGB PWM output values, white balance mode, and PWM frequency are displayed. Figure 3-3 shows the PC screen for the user control menu. LED Lighting Control using the MC9S08AW60, Rev. 1 24 Freescale Semiconductor PC Control Mode Figure 3-3. User Interface Menu When the MCU receives a control command or PWM input data from the PC, the firmware interprets the information to take the corresponding actions. It may update the output PWM values in next PWM duty or delivery of the corresponding LED control parameter back to the PC. Three timer channels in the timer 1 module are configured to edge-aligned PWM operation mode. This generates the PWM signals for the RGB color channels. By the proper control of the RGB channel PWM, the LED box can provide different lighting effects. If you select the white balance mode to AUTO, the LED output gives a white color output. The firmware retains control of the RGB PWM ratio based on the preset white color. You can adjust the output brightness by pressing the + or − key in the host PC keyboard. Alternatively, you can input a green channel PWM value and the firmware calculates the blue and red PWM values to give the resultant intensity. A demonstration display feature is available. After enabling this feature, the firmware adjusts RGB PWM so the light box switches among different preset colors, delivery fade in and fade out lighting effects, etc. You can also set the PWM to different frequencies. At a lower PWM frequency, such as 30 Hz, the flicking phenomenon is more noticeable. This phenomenon can be minimized or removed by setting the PWM frequency to a higher value. There are examples at the end of this section showing how to control the LED box through the host PC. LED Lighting Control using the MC9S08AW60, Rev. 1 Freescale Semiconductor 25 Firmware Description 3.3 Standalone Mode When the LED box is powered up with SW1 being pressed, it enters standalone mode. When compared to the PC control mode, this standalone mode can act as a quick and simple demo that does not require a host PC. The control of the LED light box can be done through the onboard buttons. However, the PC control mode can have more control on the PWM output. The functions of the buttons are as follows: • SW6 (IRQ): Demonstration Display Enable/Disable If SW6 is pressed, the LED box enters the demonstration display state where certain preset colors display sequentially with some other lighting effects. The demonstration mode can be exit by pressing SW6 again. • SW1: Preset Colors Toggle Whenever SW1 has been pressed and released, the LED box toggles to another preset color. The LED1 lights up while LED2 turns off. • SW2: Auto White Balance Control If SW2 has been pressed, the LED box turns to auto white balance state and give a white color. The small on board LED2 lights up while LED1 turns off, indicating an auto white balance state. There are two preset white color with different color temperatures available for selection. To swap between different preset color temperatures, press the SW2 button once more. The auto white balance state can be turn off by pressing SW1. • SW3: Decrease Brightness The output brightness increases if SW3 has been pressed. • SW4: Increase Brightness The output brightness decreases if SW4 has been pressed. • SW1+SW2: PWM Frequency Selection The Output PWM Frequency can be changed with following steps: 1. Press and hold SW1 2. Press SW2 3. Release SW2 4. Release SW1 After performing the above action, the output PWM frequency can be changed. There are three preset settings available, 30 Hz, 120 Hz, and 600 Hz. For examples, after changing from 30 Hz to 120 Hz using above steps, it can set the PWM to 600 Hz by applying the above steps again. NOTE The output brightness is changed after changing the frequency. As the PWM output values remain the same, a change in PWM frequency modifies the PWM duty as well. The PWM frequency selection steps above are invalid if the LED box is running at demonstration display state. In addition, the PWM frequency is changed to the default value of 120 Hz after the demonstration display state has been exited by pressing SW6.

Make sure Echo typed characters locally is NOT selected under the ASCII Setup pop-up menu, see Figure 4-1. 6. After configuring HyperTerminal, the LED Control Menu screen appears as shown in Figure 4-2. LED Lighting Control using the MC9S08AW60, Rev. 1 Freescale Semiconductor 29 Demo Setup Figure 4-1. Echo Typed Characters Setting LED Lighting Control using the MC9S08AW60, Rev. 1 30 Freescale Semiconductor Demo Examples Figure 4-2. LED Control Menu NOTE Make sure the HyperTerminal window is selected all the time by moving the mouse pointer inside the window and clicking the left mouse button (the top color bar of the terminal window is then blue instead of grey). Otherwise, no function key command is sent to the LED lightbox. 4.3 Demo Examples Several examples are given here on showing how to use the LED box under the PC control. 4.3.1 Demo 1 - Demonstration Display 1. Press the reset button SW5 on DEMO9S08AW60LED board. The LED control menu screen appears (Figure 4-2). 2. Press letter D in the PC keyboard to enter demonstration display operation. 3. In this display state, the LED light box switches among different colors automatically and delivers other lighting effects. NOTE Press any other key to exit demonstration display. Press D to enter demonstration display again. LED Lighting Control using the MC9S08AW60, Rev. 1 Freescale Semiconductor 31 Demo Setup 4.3.2 Demo 2 - Preset Colors Display 1. Press the tab key in the PC keyboard. 2. The output is switched to another preset color after the tab key has been pressed each time. NOTE You can adjust the output color any time through the control menu. 4.3.3 Demo 3 - Auto White Balance Control 1. 2. 3. 4. Press F until PWM frequency is set to 120 Hz. Press W to toggle to AUTO white balance control. Type 2000 at line of input green. The green PWM output value should then show 2000. The red and blue PWM values are adjusted automatically to keep the output at the existing color temperature. Note: Pressing T can change the output to another preset color temperature. Pressing the + or − key can gradually increase or decrease the output intensity. Use the + or − keys from the main keyboard area instead of those near the NUM lock key pad. Max PWM input range is decreased if setting to a higher PWM frequency. 4.3.4 Demo 4 - PWM Output Frequency Control 1. Press W to toggle the output to AUTO mode. 2. Pressing F can switch the PWM output among different preset frequencies. 3. The flicking phenomenon is more significant at the lower frequency such as at 30 Hz. The flicking can be removed by setting PWM to higher frequencies. NOTE The output brightness is changed after changing the frequency. As the PWM output values remain the same, a change in PWM frequency modifies the PWM duty as well. As the frequency increases, the max allowable PWM input range decreases because the PWM value for 100% on-duty becomes smaller. 4.3.5 Demo 5 - Full Manual Control 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Press F until PWM frequency change to 120Hz Press W to toggle the output to MANUAL mode. Press R to switch to manual red channel input. Type 2000 at the Input red line. Press G to switch to manual green channel input. Type 0000 at the Input green line. Press B to switch to manual blue channel input. Type 2000 at the input blue line. The output color is purple. You can repeat the steps with different PWM values for different output colors and intensities. LED Lighting Control using the MC9S08AW60, Rev. 1 32 Freescale Semiconductor Program the MCU Flash NOTE Max PWM input range is decreased when setting to a higher PWM frequency. With the same PWM values, increasing frequency (i.e. shorter period) increases brightness because the PWM on-duty increases. When typing HEX PWM input values, use only capital letters for the input of A–F. 4.4 Program the MCU Flash The DEMO9S08AW60LED board allows you to program the MCU flash and debug applications via the BDM connection. 1. Download the source code file from Freescale web site, save it to your PC, and extract the files to a working directory on your machine. 2.
