IMP525 POWER MANAGEMENT Single Cell Batter y Powered Electroluminescent Lamp Dr iver/Inver ter Key Features ◆ Wide operating voltage range - from 0.9V to 2.5V ◆ Simple design requires few passive components ◆ 112V peak-to-peak typical AC output voltage The IMP525 is an Electroluminescent (EL) lamp driver designed for systems that must operate down to 1 volt and below. The input supply voltage range is 0.9V to 2.5V. Typical output lamp drive voltage is 112V. All four EL lamp-driving functions are on-chip. These are the switch-mode power supply, its high-frequency oscillator, the high-voltage H-bridge lamp driver and its low-frequency oscillator. EL lamps of up to 6nF capacitance can be driven to high brightness. ◆ Adjustable output frequency controls lamp color and power consumption The circuit requires few external components; one inductor, one diode, one capacitor and two resistors. The resistors set the frequency for the two oscillators. ◆ Compact MicroSO package option A disable mode puts the chip into a low current-drain state. When disabled, quiescent current drops to 1µA typical with a VDD of 1.5V. The chip can be disabled by connecting RSW, the oscillator frequency setting resistor, to ground. A disable pad (active low), accessible only on the die, can also be used to disable the driver. An internal circuit shuts down the switching regulator when the lamp drive voltage exceeds 112V peak-to-peak. This conserves power and extends battery life. The IMP525 is available in MicroSO and SO-8 packages and in die form.

The frequency is controlled by resistor REL, connected from pin 8 to VDD. Available only in die form. Setting DIS HIGH disables the chip. External Components External Component Diode Description and Selection Guide A fast reverse recovery diode, with BV > 100, such as a 1N4148. Capacitor CS The high voltage capacitor that stores the inductive energy transferred through the catch diode. A 100 volt capacitor between 10nF and 100nF is recommended. Resistor R EL The EL lamp oscillator frequency-setting resistor. REL is connected between pin 8 and VDD, providing a frequency inversely proportional to REL; as REL increases, the EL lamp frequency decreases along with the current drawn by the lamp. Lamp color is also determined by this frequency. A 1MΩ resistor between the REL-OSC pin and the VDD supply results in a lamp frequency around 500Hz. Resistor RSW Switching Oscillator frequency-setting resistor. RSW is connected between the RSW-OSC pin and the VDD supply. The switching frequency is inversely proportional to the resistor value, dropping as the resistance increases. Capacitor CSW This is an optional noise-suppression capacitor connected from ground to the RSW-OSC pin. A 100pF capacitor is recommended. Inductor L The inductor provides the voltage boost needed by means of inductive “flyback”. The internal MOSFET switch alternately opens and closes the ground connection for the inductor at the LX pin. When the switch opens, the inductor potential will forward-bias the diode and the current will pass through to the storage capacitor CS, charging it to a high voltage. As the value of the inductor is increased, the switching frequency set by RSW should also be increased to prevent saturation. In general, smaller value inductors that can handle more current are more desirable when larger-area EL lamps must be driven. A small electrolytic capacitor (10µF, 16V), normally present across the inductor supply VIN, will likely eliminate the need for CSW. 10 408-432-9100/www.impweb.com © 2000 IMP, Inc.
