WLED BIAS DC/DC CONVERTER (REG1)
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Inductor Selection
General Description
REG1 has been designed to provide excellent performance across a wide range of applications, allowing a design to be optimized for both a small
footprint as well as for achieving the highest possible efficiency. REG1 was designed for operation
with inductor in the 10µH to 22µH range, in order to
achieve a small footprint , although larger inductor
values of up to 68µH can be used in order to optimize a design to achieve the highest possible efficiency.
REG1 is highly efficient step-up DC/DC converter
that employs a fixed frequency, current-mode,
PWM architecture. This regulator is optimized for
white-LED bias applications consisting of up to six
white-LEDs.
Over-Voltage Protection
REG1 features internal over-voltage protection
(OVP) circuitry which protects the system from LED
open-circuit fault conditions. The ACT6330’s OVP
threshold is set at 22V, and if necessary, regulates
the voltage at the top of the LED string to ensure
that it never exceeds this voltage. REG1 requires a
10kΩ resistor connected from output capacitor to
OVP1 pin.
Optimizing for Smallest Footprint
REG1 is capable of operating with very low inductor
values in order to achieve the smallest possible
footprint . When solution size is of primary concern,
best results are achieved when an inductance value
that ensures discontinuous conduction mode (DCM)
operation over the full load current range is used.
Thermal Shutdown Protection
Optimizing for Highest Efficiency
The ACT6330 integrates thermal shutdown protection circuitry to prevent damage resulting from excessive thermal stress, as may be encountered under fault conditions. This circuitry disables all regulators if the ACT6330 die temperature exceeds
160°C, and prevents the regulators from being enabled until the IC temperature drops by 20°C (typ).
REG1 achieves excellent efficiency in applications
that demand the longest possible battery life. When
efficiency is the primary design consideration, best
results are achieved when an inductance value that
both results in continuous conduction mode (CCM)
operation and achieves a very small inductor ripple
current is chosen.
Enabling and Disabling REG1
Output Capacitor Selection
REG1 is enabled or disabled using ON1. Drive ON1
to a logic-high to enable REG1. Drive ON1 to a
logic-low to disable REG1, reducing supply current
to less than 1µA. As with all non-synchronous stepup DC/DC converter, REG1’s application circuit procedures a DC current path between the input and
the output in shutdown mode. Although the forward
drop of the WLEDs makes this leakage current very
small in most applications, it is important to consider the effect that this may have in your application particularly when using fewer than three
WLEDs.
REG1 is designed to operate with output capacitors
ranging from 1µF to 10µF, providing design flexibility. A 1µF output capacitor is suitable for most applications, although larger output capacitors may be
used to minimize output voltage ripple, if needed.
Ceramic capacitors are recommended for most applications.
Rectifier Selection
REG1 requires a Shottky diode to rectify the inductor current. Select a low forward voltage drop Shottky diode with a forward current (IF) rating that is
sufficient to support the maximum switch current
and a sufficient peak repetitive reverse voltage
(VRRM) to support the output voltage.
Compensation and Stability
REG1 utilizes current-mode control and an internal
compensation network to optimize transient performance, ease compensation, and improve stability over a wide range of operating conditions. REG1
is a flexible regulator, and with just a simple component, choice can be optimized to achieve minimum
total solution size in applications that require the
smallest possible footprint, or can be optimized to
achieve the highest possible efficiency.

WLED BIAS DC/DC CONVERTER (REG1)
Setting the LED Bias Current
The LED bias current is set by a resistor connected
from FB1 and ground, and regulator is satisfied
when the LED current is sufficient to generate
250mV across this resistor. Once the bias current is
programmed, the LED current can be adjusted using the ACT6330’s Direct-PWM feature. REG1 is
also compatible with a variety of well-know LED
dimming circuit, such as with a DC control voltage
and a filtered PWM signal.
Board Layout
Typical for all switching power supplies, the layout
is an important step in design, especially at high
peak current and switching frequencies, please refer to PCB Layout Consideration for more information.

that employs a fixed frequency, current-mode,

use in a wide range of applications including generation constant voltage of up to 20V.

Enabling and Disabling REG2
REG2 is enabled or disabled using ON2. Drive ON2
to a logic-high to enable REG2. Drive ON2 to a
logic-low to disable REG2, reducing supply current
to less than 1µA. As with all non-synchronous stepup DC/DC converter, REG2’s application circuit procedures a DC current path between the input and
the output in shutdown mode. It is important to consider the effect that this may have in your application.
Soft-start
REG2 includes soft-start circuitry. When enabled,
the output voltage of REG2 tracks an internal 80µs
soft-start ramp.
As seen in Figure 1 and Figure 2, the output tracks
the internal soft-start ramp and powers up in a
monotonic maner that is independent of loading.
This circuitry ensures that the output powers up in a
controlled maner, greatly simplifying power turn-on
design considerations.

PCB Layout Considerations
High switching frequencies and large peak currents
make PC board layout a very important part of the
design. Good design minimizes excessive EMI on
the feedback paths and voltage gradients in the
ground plane, both of which can result in instability
or regulation errors.
Step-up DC/DCs exhibit continuous input current,
so there is some amount of flexibility in placing vias
in the input capacitor circuit. The input capacitor
should be placed as close as possible to the input
pin for good input voltage filtering.
The inductor, input filter capacitor, rectifier, and output filter capacitor should be connected as close
together as possible, with short, direct, and wide
traces. Avoid using vias in the high-current path. If
vias are unavoidable , use many vias in parallel to
reduce resistance and inductance.
Place all feedback voltage-divider resistor as close
as possible to their respective feedback pins. Connect the ground nodes together in a star configuration, with a direct connection to the exposed pad.
Route high-speed switching nodes away from the
sensitive analog areas. Finally, the exposed pad
should be directly connected to the backside
ground plane using multiple vias to achieve low
electrical and thermal resistance. Note that since
the LED string is a low, DC-current path, it does not
generally require special layout consideration.
