Check for Samples: TPS61165
FEATURES
The default white LED current is set with the external
sensor resistor Rset, and the feedback voltage is
regulated to 200mV, as shown in the typical
application. During the operation, the LED current can
be controlled using the 1 wire digital interface (
Easyscale™ protocol) through the CTRL pin.
Alternatively, a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal
can be applied to the CTRL pin through which the
duty cycle determines the feedback reference
voltage. In either digital or PWM mode, the
TPS61165 does not burst the LED current; therefore,
it does not generate audible noises on the output
capacitor. For maximum protection, the device
features integrated open LED protection that disables
the TPS61165 to prevent the output from exceeding
the absolute maximum ratings during open LED
conditions.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
OPERATION
The TPS61165 is a high efficiency, high output voltage boost converter in small package size, The device is ideal
for driving up to 10 white LED in series. The serial LED connection provides even illumination by sourcing the
same output current through all LEDs, eliminating the need for expensive factory calibration. The device
integrates 40V/1.2A switch FET and operates in pulse width modulation (PWM) with 1.2MHz fixed switching
frequency. For operation see the block diagram. The duty cycle of the converter is set by the error amplifier
output and the current signal applied to the PWM control comparator. The control architecture is based on
traditional current-mode control; therefore, a slope compensation is added to the current signal to allow stable
operation for duty cycles larger than 40%. The feedback loop regulates the FB pin to a low reference voltage
(200mV typical), reducing the power dissipation in the current sense resistor.
SOFT START-UP
Soft-start circuitry is integrated into the IC to avoid a high inrush current during start-up. After the device is
enabled, the voltage at FB pin ramps up to the reference voltage in 32 steps, each step takes 213ms. This
ensures that the output voltage rises slowly to reduce the input current. Additionally, for the first 5msec after the
COMP voltage ramps, the current limit of the switch is set to half of the normal current limit spec. During this
period, the input current is kept below 700mA (typical). These two features ensure smooth start-up and minimize
the inrush current. See the start-up waveform of a typical example (Figure 10).
OPEN LED PROTECTION
Open LED protection circuitry prevents IC damage as the result of white LED disconnection. The TPS61165
monitors the voltage at the SW pin and FB pin during each switching cycle. The circuitry turns off the switch FET
and shuts down the IC as soon as the SW voltage exceeds the Vovp threshold, and the FB voltage is less than
half of regulation voltage for 8 clock cycles. As a result, the output voltage falls to the level of the input supply.
The device remains in shutdown mode until it is enabled by toggling the CTRL pin logic. To allow the use of
inexpensive low-voltage output capacitor, the TPS61165 has different open lamp protection thresholds to prevent
the internal 40V FET from breaking down. The threshold is set at 38V.
SHUTDOWN
The TPS61165 enters shutdown mode when the CTRL voltage is logic low for more than 2.5ms. During
shutdown, the input supply current for the device is less than 1mA (max). Although the internal FET does not
switch in shutdown, there is still a DC current path between the input and the LEDs through the inductor and
Schottky diode. The minimum forward voltage of the LED array must exceed the maximum input voltage to
ensure that the LEDs remain off in shutdown.
CURRENT PROGRAM
The FB voltage is regulated by a low 0.2V reference voltage. The LED current is programmed externally using a
current-sense resistor in series with the LED string. The value of the RSET is calculated using Equation 1 .
V
I LED + FB
RSET
(1)
Where:
ILED = output current of LEDs
VFB = regulated voltage of FB
RSET = current sense resistor
The output current tolerance depends on the FB accuracy and the current sensor resistor accuracy.

LED BRIGTHNESS DIMMING MODE SELECTION
The CTRL pin is used for the control input for both dimming modes, PWM dimming and the 1 wire dimming. The
dimming mode for the TPS61165 is selected each time the device is enabled. The default dimming mode is
PWM dimming. To enter 1 wire mode, the following digital pattern on the CTRL pin must be recognized by the IC
every time the IC starts from the shutdown mode.
1. Pull CTRL pin high to enable the TPS61165, and to start the 1 wire detection window.
2. After the EasyScale detection delay (tes_delay, 100ms) expires, drive CTRL low for more than the EasyScale
detection time (tes_detect, 260ms).
3. The CTRL pin has to be low for more than EasyScale detection time before the EasyScale detection window
(tes_win, 1msec) expires. EasyScale detection window starts from the first CTRL pin low to high transition.
The IC immediately enters the 1 wire mode once the above 3 conditions are met. the EasyScale communication
can start before the detection window expires. Once the dimming mode is programmed, it can not be changed
without another start up. This means the IC needs to be shutdown by pulling the CTRL low for 2.5ms and
restarts. See the Dimming Mode Detection and Soft Start (see Figure 12) for a graphical explanation.

Figure 12. Dimming Mode Detection and Soft Start PWM Brightness Dimming
PWM BRIGHTNESS DIMMING
When the CTRL pin is constantly high, the FB voltage is regulated to 200mV typically. However, the CTRL pin
allows a PWM signal to reduce this regulation voltage; therefore, it achieves LED brightness dimming. The
relationship between the duty cycle and FB voltage is given by Equation 2:
V FB + Duty 200 mV
(2)
Where:
Duty = duty cycle of the PWM signal
200 mV = internal reference voltage
As shown in Figure 13, the IC chops up the internal 200mV reference voltage at the duty cycle of the PWM
signal. The pulse signal is then filtered by an internal low pass filter. The output of the filter is connected to the
error amplifier as the reference voltage for the FB pin regulation. Therefore, although a PWM signal is used for
brightness dimming, only the WLED DC current is modulated, which is often referred as analog dimming. This
eliminates the audible noise which often occurs when the LED current is pulsed in replica of the frequency and
duty cycle of PWM control. Unlike other scheme which filters the PWM signal for analog dimming, TPS61165
regulation voltage is independent of the PWM logic voltage level which often has large variations.

For optimum performance, use the PWM dimming frequency in the range of 5kHz to 100kHz. The requirement of
minimum dimming frequency comes from the EasyScale detection delay and detection time specification in the
dimming mode selection. Since the CTRL pin is logic only pin, adding external RC filter applied to the pin does
not work.
To use lower PWM dimming, add external RC network connected to the FB pin as shown in the additional typical
application, Figure 17.

DIGITAL 1 WIRE BRIGHTNESS DIMMING
The CTRL pin features a simple digital interface to allow digital brightness control. The digital dimming can save
the processor power and battery life as it does not require a PWM signal all the time, and the processor can
enter idle mode if available.
The TPS61165 adopts the EasyScale™ protocol for the digital dimming, which can program the FB voltage to
any of the 32 steps with single command. The step increment increases with the voltage to produce pseudo
logarithmic curve for the brightness step. See Table 1 for the FB pin voltage steps. The default step is full scale
when the device is first enabled (VFB = 200 mV). The programmed reference voltage is stored in an internal
register. A power reset clears the register value and reset it to default.
EasyScale™: 1 WIRE DIGITAL DIMMING
EasyScale is a simple but flexible one pin interface to configure the FB voltage. The interface is based on a
master-slave structure, where the master is typically a microcontroller or application processor. Figure 14 and
Table 2 give an overview of the protocol. The protocol consists of a device specific address byte and a data byte.
The device specific address byte is fixed to 72 hex. The data byte consists of five bits for information, two
address bits, and the RFA bit. The RFA bit set to high indicates the Request for Acknowledge condition. The
Acknowledge condition is only applied if the protocol was received correctly. The advantage of EasyScale
compared with other on pin interfaces is that its bit detection is in a large extent independent from the bit
transmission rate. It can automatically detect bit rates between 1.7kBit/sec and up to 160kBit/sec.

SLVS790A – NOVEMBER 2007 – REVISED MAY 2010
All bits are transmitted MSB first and LSB last. Figure 15 shows the protocol without acknowledge request (Bit
RFA = 0), Figure 15 with acknowledge (Bit RFA = 1) request. Prior to both bytes, device address byte and data
byte, a start condition must be applied. For this, the CTRL pin must be pulled high for at least tstart (2ms) before
the bit transmission starts with the falling edge. If the CTRL pin is already at a high level, no start condition is
needed prior to the device address byte. The transmission of each byte is closed with an End of Stream
condition for at least tEOS (2ms).
The bit detection is based on a Logic Detection scheme, where the criterion is the relation between tLOW and
tHIGH. It can be simplified to:
High Bit: tHIGH > tLOW, but with tHIGH at least 2x tLOW, see Figure 15.
Low Bit: tHIGH < tLOW, but with tLOW at least 2x tHIGH, see Figure 15.
The bit detection starts with a falling edge on the CTRL pin and ends with the next falling edge. Depending on
the relation between tHIGH and tLOW, the logic 0 or 1 is detected.
The acknowledge condition is only applied if:
• Acknowledge is requested by a set RFA bit.
• The transmitted device address matches with the device address of the device.
• 16 bits is received correctly.
If the device turns on the internal ACKN-MOSFET and pulls the CTRL pin low for the time tACKN, which is 512ms
maximum then the Acknowledge condition is valid after an internal delay time tvalACK. This means that the internal
ACKN-MOSFET is turned on after tvalACK, when the last falling edge of the protocol was detected. The master
controller keeps the line low in this period. The master device can detect the acknowledge condition with its input
by releasing the CTRL pin after tvalACK and read back a logic 0. The CTRL pin can be used again after the
acknowledge condition ends.
Note that the acknowledge condition may only be requested if the master device has an open drain output. For a
push-pull output stage, the use a series resistor in the CRTL line to limit the current to 500mA is recommended to
for such cases as:
• accidentally requested acknowledge, or
• to protect the internal ACKN-MOSFET.
UNDERVOLTAGE LOCKOUT
An undervoltage lockout prevents operation of the device at input voltages below typical 2.2V. When the input
voltage is below the undervoltage threshold, the device is shutdown and the internal switch FET is turned off. If
the input voltage rises by undervoltage lockout hysteresis, the IC restarts.
THERMAL SHUTDOWN
An internal thermal shutdown turns off the device when the typical junction temperature of 160°C is exceeded.
The device is released from shutdown automatically when the junction temperature decreases by 15°C.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
MAXIMUM OUTPUT CURRENT
The overcurrent limit in a boost converter limits the maximum input current and thus maximum input power for a
given input voltage. Maximum output power is less than maximum input power due to power conversion losses.
Therefore, the current limit setting, input voltage, output voltage and efficiency can all change maximum current
output. The current limit clamps the peak inductor current; therefore, the ripple has to be subtracted to derive
maximum DC current. The ripple current is a function of switching frequency, inductor value and duty cycle. The
following equations take into account of all the above factors for maximum output current calculation.

IP =

êL ´ Fs ´ (
Vout + Vf - Vin Vin û
ë
(3)
Where:
Ip = inductor peak to peak ripple
L = inductor value
Vf = Schottky diode forward voltage
Fs = switching frequency
Vout = output voltage of the boost converter. It is equal to the sum of VFB and the voltage drop across LEDs.
I out_max +
Vin
ǒI lim * I Pń2Ǔ
h
Vout
(4)
where
Iout_max = Maximum output current of the boost converter
Ilim = over current limit
h = efficiency
For instance, when VIN is 3V, 8 LEDs output equivalent to VOUT of 26V, the inductor is 22mH, the Schottky
forward voltage is 0.2V; and then the maximum output current is 110mA in typical condition. When VIN is 5V, 10
LEDs output equivalent to VOUT of 32V, the inductor is 22mH, the Schottky forward voltage is 0.2V; and then the
maximum output current is 150mA in typical condition.
INDUCTOR SELECTION
The selection of the inductor affects steady state operation as well as transient behavior and loop stability. These
factors make it the most important component in power regulator design. There are three important inductor
specifications, inductor value, DC resistance and saturation current. Considering inductor value alone is not
enough.
The inductor value determines the inductor ripple current. Choose an inductor that can handle the necessary
peak current without saturating, according to half of the peak-to-peak ripple current given by Equation 3, pause
the inductor DC current given by:
I in_DC + Vout Iout
Vin h
(5)
Inductor values can have ±20% tolerance with no current bias. When the inductor current approaches saturation
level, its inductance can decrease 20% to 35% from the 0A value depending on how the inductor vendor defines
saturation current. Using an inductor with a smaller inductance value forces discontinuous PWM when the
inductor current ramps down to zero before the end of each switching cycle. This reduces the boost converter’s
maximum output current, causes large input voltage ripple and reduces efficiency. Large inductance value
provides much more output current and higher conversion efficiency. For these reasons, a 10mH to 22mH
inductor value range is recommended. A 22mH inductor optimized the efficiency for most application while
maintaining low inductor peak to peak ripple. Table 3 lists the recommended inductor for the TPS61165. When
recommending inductor value, the factory has considered –40% and +20% tolerance from its nominal value.

TPS61165 has built-in slope compensation to avoid sub-harmonic oscillation associated with current mode
control. If the inductor value is lower than 10mH, the slope compensation may not be adequate, and the loop can
be unstable. Therefore, customers need to verify the inductor in their application if it is different from the
recommended values.

SCHOTTKY DIODE SELECTION
The high switching frequency of the TPS61165 demands a high-speed rectification for optimum efficiency.
Ensure that the diode’s average and peak current rating exceeds the average output current and peak inductor
current. In addition, the diode’s reverse breakdown voltage must exceed the open LED protection voltage. The
ONSemi MBR0540 and the ZETEX ZHCS400 are recommended for TPS61165.
COMPENSATION CAPACITOR SELECTION
The compensation capacitor C3 (see the block diagram), connected from COMP pin to GND, is used to stabilize
the feedback loop of the TPS61165. Use 220nF ceramic capacitor for C3.
INPUT AND OUTPUT CAPACITOR SELECTION
The output capacitor is mainly selected to meet the requirements for the output ripple and loop stability. This
ripple voltage is related to the capacitor’s capacitance and its equivalent series resistance (ESR). Assuming a
capacitor with zero ESR, the minimum capacitance needed for a given ripple can be calculated by:
C out +
ǒV out * V inǓ Iout
Vout
Fs
V ripple
(6)
where, Vripple = peak-to-peak output ripple. The additional output ripple component caused by ESR is calculated
using:
V ripple_ESR + I out RESR
(7)
Due to its low ESR, Vripple_ESR can be neglected for ceramic capacitors, but must be considered if tantalum or
electrolytic capacitors are used.
Care must be taken when evaluating a ceramic capacitors derating under dc bias, aging and AC signal. For
example, larger form factor capacitors (in 1206 size) have a self resonant frequencies in the range of the
switching frequency. So the effective capacitance is significantly lower. The DC bias can also significantly reduce
capacitance. Ceramic capacitors can loss as much as 50% of its capacitance at its rated voltage. Therefore,
leave the margin on the voltage rating to ensure adequate capacitance at the required output voltage.
The capacitor in the range of 1mF to 4.7mF is recommended for input side. The output requires a capacitor in the
range of 1mF to 10mF. The output capacitor affects the loop stability of the boost regulator. If the output capacitor
is below the range, the boost regulator can potentially become unstable.
The popular vendors for high value ceramic capacitors are:

Murata (http://www.murata.com/cap/index.html)

LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS
As for all switching power supplies, especially those high frequency and high current ones, layout is an important
design step. If layout is not carefully done, the regulator could suffer from instability as well as noise problems.
To reduce switching losses, the SW pin rise and fall times are made as short as possible. To prevent radiation of
high frequency resonance problems, proper layout of the high frequency switching path is essential. Minimize the
length and area of all traces connected to the SW pin and always use a ground plane under the switching
regulator to minimize inter-plane coupling. The loop including the PWM switch, Schottky diode, and output
capacitor, contains high current rising and falling in nanosecond and should be kept as short as possible. The
input capacitor needs not only to be close to the VIN pin, but also to the GND pin in order to reduce the IC
supply ripple. Figure 16 shows a sample layout.

THERMAL CONSIDERATIONS
The maximum IC junction temperature should be restricted to 125°C under normal operating conditions. This
restriction limits the power dissipation of the TPS61165. Calculate the maximum allowable dissipation, PD(max),
and keep the actual dissipation less than or equal to PD(max). The maximum-power-dissipation limit is determined
using Equation 8:
P D(max) +
125°C * T A
RqJA
(8)
where, TA is the maximum ambient temperature for the application. RqJA is the thermal resistance
junction-to-ambient given in Power Dissipation Table.
The TPS61165 comes in a thermally enhanced QFN package. This package includes a thermal pad that
improves the thermal capabilities of the package. The RqJA of the QFN package greatly depends on the PCB
layout and thermal pad connection. The thermal pad must be soldered to the analog ground on the PCB. Using
thermal vias underneath the thermal pad as illustrated in the layout example. Also see the QFN/SON PCB
Attachment application report (SLUA271).

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, modifications, enhancements, improvements,
and other changes to its products and services at any time and to discontinue any product or service without notice. Customers should
obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and complete. All products are
sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale supplied at the time of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its hardware products to the specifications applicable at the time of sale in accordance with TI’s standard
warranty. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary to support this warranty. Except where
mandated by government requirements, testing of all parameters of each product is not necessarily performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or customer product design. Customers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with customer products and applications, customers should provide
adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any TI patent right, copyright, mask work right,
or other TI intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI products or services are used. Information
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license from TI to use such products or services or a
warranty or endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual
property of the third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration and is accompanied
by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. Reproduction of this information with alteration is an unfair and deceptive
business practice. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional
restrictions.
Resale of TI products or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that product or service voids all
express and any implied warranties for the associated TI product or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice. TI is not
responsible or liable for any such statements.
TI products are not authorized for use in safety-critical applications (such as life support) where a failure of the TI product would reasonably
be expected to cause severe personal injury or death, unless officers of the parties have executed an agreement specifically governing
such use. Buyers represent that they have all necessary expertise in the safety and regulatory ramifications of their applications, and
acknowledge and agree that they are solely responsible for all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements concerning their products
and any use of TI products in such safety-critical applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support that may be
provided by TI. Further, Buyers must fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use of TI products in
such safety-critical applications.
TI products are neither designed nor intended for use in military/aerospace applications or environments unless the TI products are
specifically designated by TI as military-grade or "enhanced plastic." Only products designated by TI as military-grade meet military
specifications. Buyers acknowledge and agree that any such use of TI products which TI has not designated as military-grade is solely at
the Buyer's risk, and that they are solely responsible for compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI products are neither designed nor intended for use in automotive applications or environments unless the specific TI products are
designated by TI as compliant with ISO/TS 16949 requirements. Buyers acknowledge and agree that, if they use any non-designated
products in automotive applications, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet such requirements.
