1x/1.5x/2x White LED Charge Pump with
Two LDOs in 4mm x 4mm Thin QFN
The MAX8631X/Y charge pump drives up to eight white
LEDs with regulated constant current for uniform intensity. The main group of LEDs (M1–M4) can be driven
up to 30mA per LED for backlighting. The flash group
of LEDs (F1–F4) is independently controlled and can be
driven up to 100mA per LED (or 400mA total). Two
200mA LDOs are on-board to provide power for camera functions. The LDOs’ output voltages are pin-programmable to meet different camera-module
requirements. By utilizing adaptive 1x/1.5x/2x chargepump modes and very-low-dropout current regulators,
the MAX8631X/Y achieves high efficiency over the full
1-cell lithium-battery voltage range. The 1MHz fixed-frequency switching allows for tiny external components,
and the regulation scheme is optimized to ensure low
EMI and low input ripple.
The MAX8631X/Y is available in a 28-pin thin QFN,
4mm x 4mm lead-free package (0.8mm max height).

Note 1: All devices are 100% production tested at TA = +25°C. Limits over the operating temperature range are guaranteed by
design.
Note 2: LED dropout voltage is defined as the M_ or F_ to GND voltage at which current into M_ or F_ drops 10% from the value at
M_ or F_ = 0.2V.
Note 3: (Greater of 2.7V or (VLDO_ + 0.5V)) ≤ VIN ≤ 5.5V.
Note 4: LDO dropout voltage is defined as VIN - VOUT when VOUT is 100mV below the value of VOUT measured when VIN =
VOUT(NOM) + 1V. Since the minimum input voltage is 2.7V, this specification is only meaningful when VOUT(NOM) > 2.5V.

Detailed Description
The MAX8631X/Y charge pump drives up to 4 white
LEDs in the main display for backlighting and up to 4
white LEDs for flash, all with regulated constant current
for uniform intensity. By utilizing adaptive 1x/1.5x/2x
charge-pump modes and very-low-dropout current regulators, it achieves high efficiency over the 1-cell lithium-battery input voltage range. 1MHz fixed-frequency
switching allows for tiny external components and low
input ripple. Two on-board 200mA programmable-output-voltage LDOs are provided to meet camera-module
requirements.
1x to 1.5x Switchover
When VIN is higher than VOUT, the MAX8631X/Y operates in 1x mode and VOUT is pulled up to VIN. The
internal current regulators regulate the LED current. As
V IN drops, V M_ (or V F_ ) eventually falls below the
switchover threshold of 100mV and the MAX8631X/Y
starts switching in 1.5x mode. When the input voltage
rises above V OUT by approximately 50mV, the
MAX8631X/Y switches back to 1x mode.
1.5x to 2x Switchover
When VIN is less than VOUT but greater than two-thirds
VOUT, the MAX8631X/Y operates in 1.5x mode. The
internal current regulators regulate the LED current. As
V IN drops, V M_ (or V F_ ) eventually falls below the
switchover threshold of 100mV, and the MAX8631X/Y
starts switching in 2x mode. When the input voltage
rises above two-thirds VOUT by approximately 50mV,
the MAX8631X/Y switches back to 1.5x mode.

10
Soft-Start
The MAX8631X/Y includes soft-start circuitry to limit
inrush current at turn-on. Once the input voltage is
applied, the output capacitor is charged directly from
the input with a ramped current source (with no chargepump action) until the output voltage approaches the
input voltage. Once the output capacitor is charged,
the charge pump determines if 1x, 1.5x, or 2x mode is
required. In the case of 1x mode, the soft-start is terminated and normal operation begins. In the case of 1.5x
or 2x mode, soft-start operates until the lowest voltage
of M1–M4 and F1–F4 reaches regulation. If the output is
shorted to ground or is pulled to less than 1.25V, the
output current is limited by soft-start.
True Shutdown™ Mode
When ENM1, ENM2, and ENF are simultaneously held
low for 2.5ms or longer, the MAX8631X/Y is shut down
and put in a low-current shutdown mode, and the input
is isolated from the output. OUT is internally pulled to
GND with 5kΩ during shutdown.
Thermal Derating
The MAX8631X/Y limits the maximum LED current
depending on the die temperature. The maximum LED
current is set by the RSETM and RSETF resistors. Once
the temperature reaches +43°C, the LED current
decreases by 1.7%/°C. Due to the package’s exposed
paddle, the die temperature is always very close to the
PC board temperature.
The temperature derating function allows the LED current to be safely set higher at normal operating temperatures, thereby allowing either a brighter display or
fewer LEDs to be used for normal display brightness.

Thermal Shutdown
The MAX8631X/Y includes a thermal-limit circuit that
shuts down the IC at approximately +160°C. Turn-on
occurs after the IC cools by approximately 20°C.
Applications Information
Setting the Main Output Current
SETM controls M1–M4 regulation current. Current flowing into M1, M2, M3, and M4 is a multiple of the current
flowing out of SETM:
IM1 = IM2 = IM3 = IM4 = K x (0.6V / RSETM)
where K = 230, and RSETM is the resistor connected
between SETM and GND (see the Typical Operating
Circuit).

Setting the Flash Output Current
SETF controls the F1–F4 regulation current. Current
flowing into F1, F2, F3, and F4 is a multiple of the current flowing out of SETF.
IF1 = IF2 = IF3 = IF4 = N x (0.6V / RSETF)
where N = 690.
Single-Wire Pulse Dimming
For more dimming flexibility or to reduce the number of
control traces, the MAX8631X/Y supports serial pulse
dimming. Connect ENM1 and ENM2 together to enable
single-wire pulse dimming of the main LEDs (or ENF
only for single-wire pulse dimming of the flash LEDs).
See Figure 3. When ENM1 and ENM2 (or ENF) go high
simultaneously, the main (or flash) LEDs are enabled at
full brightness. Each subsequent low-going pulse
(500ns to 250µs pulse width) reduces the LED current
by 3.125% (1/32), so after one pulse the LED current is
96.9% (or 31/32) x ILED. The 31st pulse reduces the
current to 0.03125 x ILED. The 32nd pulse sets the LED
current back to ILED. Figure 2 shows a timing diagram
for single-wire pulse dimming. Because soft-start is
longer than the initial tHI, apply dimming pulses quickly
upon startup (after initial tHI) to avoid LED current transitioning through full brightness.
Simple On/Off Control
If dimming control is not required, connect ENM1 to
ENM2 for simple on/off control. Drive both ENM1 and
ENM2 to a logic-level high to turn on the main LEDs.
Drive both ENM1 and ENM2 to a logic-level low to turn
off the main LEDs. ENF is the simple on/off control for
the flash LEDs. Drive ENF to a logic-level high to turn
on the flash LEDs. Drive ENF to a logic-level low to turn
off the flash LEDs. In this case, LED current is set by
the values of RSETM and RSETF.
Driving Fewer than 8 LEDs
When driving fewer than 8 LEDs, two different connection schemes can be used. The first scheme is shown
in Figure 4 where LED drivers are connected together.
This method allows increased current through the LED
and effectively allows total LED current to be ILED multiplied by the number of connected drivers. The second
method of connection is shown in Figure 5 where standard white LEDs are used and fewer than 8 are connected. This scheme does not alter current through
each LED but ensures that the unused LED driver is
properly disabled.
Input Ripple
For LED drivers, input ripple is more important than output ripple. Input ripple is highly dependent on the
source supply’s impedance. Adding a lowpass filter to
the input further reduces input ripple. Alternately,
increasing CIN to 22µF cuts input ripple in half with only
a small increase in footprint. The 1x mode always has
very low input ripple.

Use only ceramic capacitors with an X5R, X7R, or better
dielectric. See Table 3 for a list of recommended parts.
Connect a 1µF ceramic capacitor between LDO1 and
GND, and a second 1µF ceramic capacitor between
LDO2 and GND for 200mA applications. The LDO output capacitor’s (C LDO) equivalent series resistance
(ESR) affects stability and output noise. Use output
capacitors with an ESR of 0.1Ω or less to ensure stability
and optimum transient response. Connect CLDO_ as
close to the MAX8631X/Y as possible to minimize the
impact of PC board trace inductance.

LDO Output Voltage Selection (P1 and P2)
As shown in Table 2, the LDO output voltages, LDO1
and LDO2 are pin-programmable by the logic states of
P1 and P2. P1 and P2 are tri-level inputs: IN, open, and
GND. The input voltage, VIN, must be greater than the
selected LDO1 and LDO2 voltages. The logic states of
P1 and P2 can be programmed only during ENLDO
low. Once the LDO_ voltages are programmed, their
values do not change by changing P1 or P2 during
ENLDO high.

PC Board Layout and Routing
The MAX8631X/Y is a high-frequency switched-capacitor voltage regulator. For best circuit performance, use
a solid ground plane and place CIN, COUT, C3, and C4
as close to the MAX8631X/Y as possible. There should
be no vias on CIN. Connect GND and PGND to the
exposed paddle directly under the IC. Refer to the
MAX8631X/Y evaluation kit for an example.
