DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The MP3387L is a step-up converter with 6channel current sources. It is designed for
driving the white LED arrays as backlighting of
middle or large size LCD panel.
•
•
•
The MP3387L uses peak-current mode as its
PWM control architecture. The switching
frequency can be programmed by a resistor. It
generates an output voltage up to 45V from a
3V to 26V input supply. The MP3387L
independently regulates the current in each
LED string to the value set by an external
current-setting resistor.
•
•
The MP3387L applies 6 internal current
sources in each LED string terminal to achieve
a current balance with 3% current regulation
accuracy between strings. Its low 500mV
regulation voltage on LED current sources
reduces power loss.
The MP3387L features external digital PWM
dimming and analog dimming, both of which
sharing a single input with 25% PWM duty cycle
as a transfer point. The mix-dimming strategy
helps to improve the dimming ratio. Also,
MP3387L automatically transfers the PWM
input signal 100Hz to 20kHz frequency to
24kHz to 27.5kHz to eliminate the audible noise.

Notes:
1) Exceeding these ratings may damage the device.
2) The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of the
maximum junction temperature TJ (MAX), the junction-toambient thermal resistance θJA, and the ambient temperature
TA. The maximum allowable continuous power dissipation at
any ambient temperature is calculated by PD (MAX) = (TJ
(MAX)-TA)/θJA. Exceeding the maximum allowable power
dissipation will cause excessive die temperature, and the
regulator will go into thermal shutdown. Internal thermal
shutdown circuitry protects the device from permanent
damage.
3) The device is not guaranteed to function outside of its
operating conditions.
4) Measured on JESD51-7, 4-layer PCB.

MP3387L ― STEP UP, 6STRINGS,WHITE LED DRIVER
OPERATION
The MP3387L employs a peak current as its
PWM mode architecture and has 6-channels
current sources to regulate the array of 6
strings white LEDs. The operation of the
MP3387L can be understood by referring to the
block diagram.
Internal 5V Regulator
The MP3387L includes an internal linear
regulator (VCC). When VIN is greater than 5.5V,
this regulator offers a 5V power supply for the
internal MOSFET switch gate-driver and the
internal control circuitry. The VCC voltage drops
to 0V when the chip shuts down. In the
application of VIN smaller than 5.5V, tie VCC
and VIN together. Also, the MP3387L features
Under Voltage Lockout and the chip is disabled
until VCC exceeds the UVLO threshold. The
hysteresis of UVLO is approximately 200mV.
System Startup
When enabled, the MP3387L checks the
topology connection first. The chip monitors the
over-voltage protection (OVP) pin to see
whether the Schottky diode is connected or
whether the boost output is shorted to GND. An
OVP voltage less than 80mV will fail to the
switching. The MP3387L also checks other
safety limits, including UVLO and overtemperature protection (OTP). If detections to
all the protections pass, the chip then starts
boosting the step-up converter with an internal
soft-start.
It is recommended that the enable signal occurs
after the establishment of the input voltage and
PWM dimming signal during the start-up
sequence to avoid large inrush current.
Step-Up Converter
The
converter
operating
frequency
is
programmed with an external resistor
connected to the OSC pin. This helps to
optimize the size of external components and
the efficiency.
At the beginning of each switching cycle, the
internal clock turns on the external MOSFET (In
normal operation, the minimum turning-on time
is 100ns). A stabilizing ramp added to the
output of the current sense amplifier prevents
sub-harmonic oscillations for duty cycles
greater than 50 percent. This result is fed into
the PWM comparator. When this resulting
voltage reaches the output voltage of the error
amplifier (VCOMP), the external MOSFET turns
off.
The output voltage of the internal error amplifier
is an amplified signal of the difference between
the reference voltage and the feedback voltage.
The converter automatically chooses the lowest
active LEDX pin voltage to provide a highenough bus voltage to power all the LED arrays.
If the feedback voltage drops below the
reference, the output of the error amplifier
increases. It results in more current flowing
through the MOSFET, thus increasing the
power delivered to the output. This forms a
closed loop that regulates the output voltage.
Under light-load operation, especially in the
case of VOUT ≈ VIN, the converter runs in pulseskipping mode where the MOSFET turns on for
a minimum on-time of approximately 100ns,
and then the converter discharges the power to
the output for the remaining period. The
external MOSFET remains off until the output
voltage needs to be boosted again.
Dimming Control
The MP3387L provides two dimming methods:
direct PWM dimming mode or combined analog
and PWM dimming mode.
If MIX pin is pulled to high (In default, this pin is
pulled to high.), MP3387L works in combined
analog and PWM dimming mode with 25% as
its transfer point. A PWM signal is applied to the
PWMI pin. When the duty cycle of PWM
dimming signal is >= 25%, the IC dims the LED
current with analog mode and the LED current
amplitude is equal to ISET*DDIM. (ISET is the LED
current set by resistor connected to ISET pin;
DDIM is the duty cycle of PWM dimming signal.)
Analog dimming helps to reduce the LED power
loss and avoid the audible noise issue. When
the duty cycle of PWM dimming signal is <25%,
the IC dims the LED current in PWM mode, the
LED current amplitude is fixed to 25%* ISET
while the LED dimming duty is 4 times DDIM to
make the actual average LED current equal to
ISET*DDIM. The actual LED current dimming
frequency is automatically transferred to the

MP3387L ― STEP UP, 6STRINGS,WHITE LED DRIVER
range of 24kHz~27.5kHz from 100Hz~20kHz of
the input PWM dimming signal frequency. By
doing this, MP3387L not only improves the low
LED current dimming ratio but also avoids the
troublesome audible noise issue.
If MIX pin is pulled to low, MP3387L works
under direct PWM dimming mode. The LED
current is fixed to ISET, the output LED current is
just chopped following to the direct PWM
dimming signal duty cycle and frequency. The
average output current is equal to ISET*DDIM.
Output Over Voltage Protection & Short
Protection
In some unexpected cases, in order to avoid
the IC keeping charging the output voltage,
MP3387L has OVP function to protect the
components from being damaged by output
voltage. If the OVP high protection threshold
point 1.2V has been reached, the chip stops
switching and thus, the output voltage drops.
The switching resumes to normal if the OVP
point drops below the recovery threshold.
In addition, MP3387L can achieve output short
to GND or Diode open protection by detecting
OVP pin voltage. The IC works in normal
switching only the OVP pin voltage is higher
than 80mV.
Open String Protection
Open string protection is achieved by detecting
both the OVP pin and the LED (1 to 6) pins. If
one or more strings (Not all strings) are open,
the respective LEDX pins are pulled to ground
and the IC keeps charging the output voltage
until OVP reaches the 1.2V protection threshold,
the chip stops switching and marks off the open
strings which have an LEDX pin voltage lower
than 275mV. Once marked, the remaining LED
strings force the output voltage back into right
regulation. The string with the largest voltage
drop determines the output regulation. In
addition, the marked-off strings can resume to
normal operation after connected back to the
system.
If all 6 strings are open (LED bar is open), the
IC keeps charging the output voltage until OVP
pin voltage hits 1.2V threshold, then mark off
the LED current regulator. The IC resumes to
normal current regulation till VIN or EN is reset.
Short String Protection
The MP3387L monitors the LEDX pin voltage to
judge if the short string occurs. If one or more
strings are short, the respective LEDX pins will
be pulled up to the boost output and tolerate
high voltage stress. If the LEDX pin voltage is
higher than 5.5V, the short string condition is
detected on the respective string. When the
short string fault (LEDX over-voltage fault)
continues for greater than 1.6ms, the
corresponding string current regulator is
disabled and disconnects from the output
voltage loop regulation. The LED string will
resume to normal current regulation when the
short condition is removed.
Thermal Shutdown Protection
To prevent the IC from operating at exceedingly
high temperature, thermal shutdown is
implemented in this chip by detecting the silicon
die temperature. When the die temperature
exceeds the upper threshold TST, the IC
shutdowns and recovers to normal operation
when die temperature drops below lower
threshold. Typically, the hysteresis value is
20°C.

MP3387L ― STEP UP, 6STRINGS,WHITE LED DRIVER
APPLICATION INFORMATION
Selecting the Switching Frequency
The switching frequency of the step-up converter
is recommended from 500kHz to 1.2MHz for
most of application. An oscillator resistor on
FREQ pin sets the internal oscillator frequency
for the step-up converter according to the below
equation:
62500
FSW (kHz) =
ROSC (kΩ )
For ROSC=100kΩ, the switching frequency is set
to 625kHz.
Setting the LED Current
The current of each string is identical and set
through the current setting resistor on the ISET
pin.
ISET = 1000 ×
1.21(V)
RSET (k)
For RSET=60.4kΩ, the LED current is set to 20mA.
The ISET pin can not be open.
Selecting the Input Capacitor
The input capacitor reduces the surge current
drawn from the input supply and the switching
noise from the device. The input capacitor
impedance at the switching frequency should be
less than the input source impedance to prevent
the high-frequency switching current from
passing through to the input. Use ceramic
capacitors with X5R or X7R dielectrics for their
low ESR and small temperature coefficients. For
most applications, a 4.7μF ceramic capacitor is
sufficient.
Selecting the Inductor
The MP3387L requires an inductor to supply a
higher output voltage while being driven by the
input voltage. A larger value inductor results in
less ripple current, lower peak inductor current
and less stress on the internal N-channel
MOSFET. However, the larger value inductor has
a larger physical size, higher series resistance,
and lower saturation current.
Calculate the required inductance value using the
equation:
η × VOUT × D × (1− D)2
L≥
2 × fSW × ILOAD
V
D = 1 − IN
VOUT
Where VIN and VOUT are the input and output
voltages, fSW is the switching frequency, ILOAD is
the LED load current, and η is the efficiency.
With given inductor value, the inductor DC
current rating is at least 40% higher than the
maximum input peak inductor current for most
applications. The inductor’s DC resistance should
be as small as possible to get higher efficiency.
Selecting the Output Capacitor
The output capacitor keeps the output voltage
ripple small and ensures feedback loop stability.
The output capacitor impedance must be low at
the switching frequency. Ceramic capacitors with
X7R dielectrics are recommended for their low
ESR characteristics. For most applications, a
2.2μF ceramic capacitor is sufficient.
Setting the Over Voltage Protection
The open string protection is achieved through
the detection of the voltage on the OVP pin. In
some unexpected cases, the part keeps boosting
the output voltage higher and higher. If the output
voltage reaches the programmed OVP threshold,
the protection will be triggered.
To ensure the chip functions properly, select the
resistor values for the OVP resistor divider to
provide an appropriate set voltage. The
recommended OVP point is about 1.1 to 1.2
times higher than the output voltage for normal
operation.
VOVP = 1.2(V) × (1 +
RHIGH
)
RLOW
Choose an inductor that does not saturate under
the worst-case load conditions. Select the
minimum inductor value to ensure that the boost
converter works in continuous conduction mode
with high efficiency and good EMI performance.

MP3387L ― STEP UP, 6STRINGS,WHITE LED DRIVER
Selecting Dimming Control Mode
The MP3387L provides two different dimming
methods.
1. Direct PWM Dimming
Pull MIX pin to low to make MP3387L work in
direct PWM dimming mode. Apply a PWM
dimming signal to PWMI pin, the LED current is
fixed to ISET, the output LED current is chopped
following to the direct PWM dimming signal duty
cycle and frequency. The average output current
is equal to ISET*DDIM. The input PWM dimming
frequency depends on the LED current dimming
ratio. Lower input PWM dimming frequency
results in better LED dimming ratio. Usually, a
200Hz to 2kHz PWM signal is ok to cover most
applications.
The actual LED current dimming frequency is
automatically transferred to the range of
24kHz~27.5kHz from 100Hz~20kHz of the input
PWM dimming signal frequency. By doing this,
MP3387L can not only improve the low LED
current dimming ratio but also avoid the
troublesome audible noise issue.
Layout Considerations
Careful attention must be paid to the PCB board
layout and components placement. Proper layout
of the high frequency switching path is critical to
prevent noise and electromagnetic interference
problems. The loop of LX to PGND pin (U1),
output diode (D1), and output capacitor (C2) is
flowing with high frequency pulse current. It must
be as short as possible (See figure below).
2. Combined Analog and PWM Dimming
If MIX pin is pulled to high (In default, this pin is
pulled to high.), MP3387L works in combined
analog and PWM dimming mode with 25% as its
transfer point. A PWM signal is applied to the
PWMI pin. When the duty cycle of PWM dimming
signal is >= 25%, the IC dims the LED current
with analog mode and the LED current amplitude
is equal to ISET*DDIM. (ISET is the LED current set
by resistor connected to ISET pin; DDIM is the
duty cycle of PWM dimming signal.) Analog
dimming helps to reduce the LED power loss and
avoid the audible noise issue. When the duty
cycle of PWM dimming signal is <25%, the IC
dims the LED current in PWM mode, the LED
current amplitude is fixed to 25%* ISET while the
LED dimming duty is 4 times DDIM to make the
actual average LED current equal to ISET*DDIM.

Layout Consideration
The IC exposed pad is internally connected to
GND pin, and all logic signals are referred to the
GND. The PGND should be externally connected
to GND and is recommended to keep away from
the logic signals.
