ONSEMI CAT32EKT

CAT32
CMOS White LED Driver
Description
The CAT32 is a DC/DC step up converter that delivers a regulated
output current. Operation at a constant switching frequency of
1.2 MHz allows the device to be used with very small value external
inductor and ceramic capacitors.
The CAT32 is targeted to drive multiple white light−emitting diodes
(LEDs) connected in series and provides the necessary regulated current
to control the brightness and the color purity. An external resistor RSET
controls the output current level. LED currents of up to 40 mA can be
supported over a wide range of input supply voltages from 2 V to 7 V,
making the device ideal for battery−powered applications.
A high voltage output stage allows up to 4 White LEDs to be driven
in series. Series drive provides inherent current matching.
LED dimming can be done by using a DC voltage, a logic signal, or
a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal. The shutdown input pin
allows the device to be placed in power−down mode with “near zero”
quiescent current.
In addition to overcurrent limiting protection, the device also
includes detection circuitry to ensure protection against open−circuit
load fault conditions.
The device is available in a low profile (1 mm max height) 6−lead
TSOT−23 package.

CAT32
Operation
The CAT32 device is a high efficiency, constant
frequency, current regulating boost converter.
The device includes a switch and an internally
compensated loop for the regulation of the LED current.
Operation can be best understood by examining the block
diagram. The RSET pin is regulated at 100 mV and the
current through the external resistor will set the regulated
current in the LEDs (from 5 mA to 40 mA) with a
multiplication factor of 225.
While maintaining LED current regulation, the CAT32
automatically adjusts the LED pin voltage to be as low as
possible. A low LED pin voltage ensures high efficiency.
Current through the internal power switch is continuously
monitored cycle−by−cycle. If the current limit is exceeded,
the switch is immediately turned off, protecting the device,
for the remainder of the cycle.
PWM dimming operation can be achieved by switching
the SHDN pin or by pulling the RSET pin higher than 0.1 V.

Capacitor Selection
Diode Selection
Low ESR (equivalent series resistance) capacitors should
be used at the output to minimize the output ripple voltage.
The low ESR and small package options available with
multilayer ceramic capacitors make them excellent choices.
The X5R and X7R capacitor types are preferred because
they retain their capacitance over wider voltage and
temperature ranges than the Y5V or Z5U types. A 1.0 mF or
2.2 mF output capacitor is recommended for most
applications.
The voltage rating of the output capacitor C2 depends on
the number of LEDs driven in series. A 10 V ceramic
capacitor is recommended when driving two LEDs. A 16 V
ceramic capacitor is recommended when driving 3 or 4
LEDs.
Schottky diodes, with their low forward voltage drop and
fast switching speed, are the ideal choice for high efficiency
applications. Table 7 shows several different Schottky
diodes that work well with the CAT32. Make sure that the
diode has a voltage rating greater than the output voltage.
The diode conducts current only when the power switch is
turned off (typically less than one−third the time), so a 0.4 A
or 0.5 A diode will be sufficient for most designs.

Kemet
408.986.0424
www.kemet.com
The LED current is programmed with a single resistor
connected to the RSET pin. The RSET pin is internally
regulated to 100 mV, which sets the current flowing out of
this pin, ISET, equal to 100 mV/RSET. The CAT32 regulates
the current into the LED pin, ILED, to 225 times the value of
ISET. For the best accuracy, a 1% or better resistor is
recommended. Table 8 shows several typical 1% RSET
values.
Low profile ceramic capacitors with a 1 mm maximum
height/thickness are available for designs height
requirements. Ceramic capacitors also make a good choice
for the input capacitor, which should be mounted as close as
possible to the CAT32. A 2.2 mF or 4.7 mF input capacitor is
recommended. Table 6 shows a list of several ceramic
capacitor manufacturers. Consult the manufacturers for
detailed information as new products and package options
are introduced regularly.

CAT32
In addition to providing the widest dimming range, PWM
brightness control also ensures the “purest” white LED color
over the entire dimming range. The true color of a white
LED changes with operating current, and is the “purest”
white at a specific forward current, usually 15 mA or
20 mA. If the LED current is less than or more than this
value, the emitted light becomes more blue. Applications
involving color LCDs can find the blue tint objectionable.
When a PWM control signal is used to drive the SHDN pin
of the CAT32, the LEDs are turned off and on at the PWM
frequency. The current through them alternates between full
current and zero current, so the average current changes with
duty cycle. This ensures that when the LEDs are on, they can
be driven at the appropriate current to give the purest white
light. LED brightness varies linearly with the PWM duty
cycle.

Most white LEDs are driven at maximum currents of
15 mA to 20 mA. Some higher power designs will use two
parallel strings of LEDs for greater light output, resulting in
30 mA to 40 mA (two strings of 15 mA to 20 mA) flowing
into the LED pin.
LED Dimming with a Logic Signal
For applications that need to adjust the LED brightness in
discrete steps, a logic signal can be used. RMIN sets the
minimum LED current value (when the NMOS is OFF):
LED Dimming with PWM Signal
PWM brightness control provides the widest dimming
range (greater than 20:1). By turning the LEDs ON and OFF
using the control signal the LEDs operate at either zero or
full current, but their average current changes with the PWM
signal duty cycle. Typically, a 5 kHz to 40 kHz PWM signal
is used. PWM dimming with the CAT32 can be
accomplished two different ways.
The SHDN pin can be driven directly or a resistor can be
added to drive the RSET pin. If the SHDN pin is used,
increasing the duty cycle will increase the LED brightness.
Using this method, the LEDs can be dimmed and turned off
completely using the same control signal. A 0% duty cycle
signal will turn off the CAT32, reducing the total quiescent
current to near zero.
If the RSET pin is used, increasing the duty cycle will
decrease the brightness. Using this method, the LEDs are
dimmed using RSET and turned off completely using
SHDN. If the RSET pin is used to provide PWM dimming,
the approximate value of RPWM should be calculated (where
VMAX is the “HIGH” value of the PWM signal):

PCB Layout Guidelines
The CAT32 is a high−frequency switching regulator and
therefore proper PCB board layout and component
placement can minimize noise and radiation and increase
efficiency. To maximize efficiency, the CAT32 design has
fast switch rise and fall times. To prevent radiation and high
frequency resonance problems minimize the length and area
of all traces connected to the SW pin and use a ground plane
under the switching regulator.
The switch, schottky output diode and output capacitor
signal path should be kept as short as possible. The ground
connection for the RSET resistor should be tied directly to the
GND pin and not be shared with other components.
