Multi-Output DC-DC Power Supply with
VCOM Amplifier and Temperature Sensor for
E-Paper Applications
The MAX17135 is a complete power-management IC for
E-paper displays that provides source- and gate-driver
power supplies, a high-speed VCOM amplifier, and a
temperature sensor.
The source-driver power supplies consist of a boost
converter and an inverting buck-boost converter that
generates +15V (up to +17V) and -15V (up to -17V),
respectively. Both source-driver power supplies can
deliver up to 200mA. The positive source-driver supply
regulation voltage (VPOS) can be set either by using
an I2C interface or by connecting an external resistordivider. The negative source-driver supply voltage
(VNEG) is always tightly regulated to -VPOS within Q50mV.
The gate-driver power supplies consist of regulated
charge pumps that generate +22V (up to +40V) and
-20V (up to -40V) and can deliver up to 20mA each.
Features
S Four Regulated Output Voltages for Source- and
Gate-Driver Power Supplies
S VPOS + VNEG = ±50mV Tracking Accuracy
S Measures Internal and Remote Diode Temperature
Sensors
S True Shutdown on All Outputs
S 2.7V to 5.5V IN Supply Voltage Range
S Controlled Inrush Current During Soft-Start
S I2C Serial Interface for Temperature Read, Power
Output Enable, POS Voltage Regulation Set-Point
Adjustment, Power-Up/Power-Down Sequencing
Adjustment, and Fault Monitoring
Simplified Operating Circuit
The IC features a VCOM amplifier output whose output
voltage is controlled by an internal 8-bit digital-to-analog
converter (DAC). The DAC is programmable through an
I2C interface and allows small-voltage-step sizes per
DAC step.
The IC includes a temperature sensor that provides
the ability to read the internal IC temperature and an
external panel temperature with the use of an external
temperature-sensing diode. Temperature output data is
supplied through I2C.
The device is available in a space-saving, 32-pin TQFN
package and is specified over the -40NC to +85NC
extended temperature range.

Typical Operating Circuit
The IC’s typical operating circuit (Figure 2) generates
Q15V source-driver supplies and +22V and -20V gatedriver supplies for E-paper displays. The input voltage
range for the IC is from 2.7V to 5.5V. Figure 3 shows the
functional diagram. Table 1 lists recommended components and Table 2 lists contact information for component suppliers.
Detailed Description
Source-Driver Power Supplies
The source-driver power supplies consist of a boost
converter and an inverting buck-boost converter that
generate +15V (+17V max) and -15V (-17V max),
respectively, and can deliver up to 200mA. The positive
source-driver power supply’s regulation voltage (VPOS)
can be set using the external resistor-divider network
shown in Figure 2, or can be programmed through the
I2C interface connecting FBP to GND before power-up.

The negative source-driver supply voltage (VNEG) is
automatically tightly regulated to -VPOS within Q50mV.
VNEG cannot be adjusted independently of VPOS.
Gate-Driver Power Supplies
The positive gate-driver power supply (GVDD) generates
+22V (+40V max) and the negative gate-driver power
supply (GVEE) generates -20V (-40V max). Both supplies
can supply up to 20mA current. The GVDD and GVEE
regulation voltages are both set by using the external
resistor-divider networks shown in Figure 2.
VCOM Amplifier
The IC features a negative output VCOM amplifier whose
voltage is programmed through an I2C interface. An
internal 8-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) allows
for a wide VCOM output range of -0.5V to -3.05V and a
10mV change per DAC step. The user can store the DAC
setting in nonvolatile memory. On power-up, the nonvolatile memory sets the DAC to the last stored setting.
Temperature Sensor
The IC includes a temperature sensor that reads the
internal IC temperature and the external panel temperature with the use of an external temperature-sensing
diode. Temperature output data is supplied through I2C.
An analog-to-digital converter (ADC) converts the temperature data to 9 bits, two’s-complement format and
stores the conversion results in separate temperature
registers.
Fault Protection
The IC has robust fault and overload protection. If any
of the GVEE, NEG, POS, or GVDD outputs fall more
than 80% (typ) below their intended regulation voltage
for more than 50ms (typ), or if a short-circuit condition
occurs on any output for any duration, then all outputs
latch off and FLT is asserted low. The fault condition is
set in the Fault register, which can be read through the
I2C interface.
True Shutdown
The IC completely disconnects the loads from the input
when in shutdown mode. In most boost converters, the
external rectifying diode and inductor form a DC current
path from the battery to the output. This can drain the
battery even in shutdown if a load was connected at
the boost-converter output. The device has an internal
switch at POS. When this switch turns off during shutdown, there is no DC path from the input to POS.
Multi-Output DC-DC Power Supply with
VCOM Amplifier and Temperature Sensor for
E-Paper Applications
The device supports an I2C-compatible, 2-wire digital
interface. SDA is the bidirectional data line and SCL
is the clock line of the 2-wire interface corresponding,
respectively, to the SDA and SCL lines of the I2C bus.
Write to a register by writing the device address byte,
a data pointer byte, and a data byte. Read from the IC
in one of two ways: if the location latched in the Pointer
register is set from the previous read, the new read consists of a device address byte, followed by retrieving the
corresponding number of data bytes. If the Pointer register needs to be set to a new address, perform a read
operation by writing the device address byte, pointer
byte, repeat start, and the device address byte again
with the read bit. An inadvertent 8-bit read from a 16-bit
register, with the D7 bit low, can cause the device to stop
in a state where the SDA line is held low. Ordinarily, this
would prevent any further bus communication until the
master sends nine additional clock cycles or SDA goes
high. At that time, a STOP condition resets the device.
If the additional clock cycles are not generated by the
master, the IC bus resets and unlocks after the bus timeout period has elapsed.
Power-On/Power-Off
Sequencing and Timing
The IC allows for flexible power-up/power-down sequencing and timing of the source-driver and gate-driver
power supplies (GVEE, NEG, POS, and GVDD). Toggling
the EN pin from low to high or setting the EN bit in the
enable register to 1 initiates an adjustable preset powerup sequence. Toggling the EN pin from high to low or
setting the EN bit in the Enable register to 0 initiates an
adjustable preset power-down sequence. The powerup/power-down sequence and timing between rails are
determined by the user’s values programmed into the
Timing registers through I2C. The desired sequence and
timing between rails contained in the Timing registers
can also be stored in the nonvolatile memory, such that
desired timing information is loaded into the Timing registers at power-up.
The device uses the read and write protocols shown in
Figure 4.

I2C Interface
Output Control
The IC’s source-driver and gate-driver outputs (GVEE,
NEG, POS, and GVDD) and VCOM amplifier output
can be controlled by driving the IC’s EN and CEN pins,
respectively. Alternatively, the EN and CEN pins can be
left unconnected or connected to GND such that their
corresponding functions can be controlled by toggling
the EN and CEN bits in the enable register. All outputs are
brought up with soft-start control to limit the inrush current.

• The EN bit is set to 1; the GVEE, NEG, POS, and
GVDD power rails begin a power-up sequence. The
sequence order and timing between the startup of
each power rail is determined by the information
stored in the t1–t4 Timing registers at the time the EN
bit is set to 1.
• The EN bit is set to 0; the GVEE, NEG, POS, and
GVDD begin a power-down/discharge sequence
based on the information stored in the Timing registers. The sequence order and timing between the
power-down of each power rail is determined by the
information stored in the t5–t8 Timing registers at the
time the EN bit is set to 0.
• The CEN bit is set to 1; the VCOM output is
enabled.
• The CEN bit is set to 0; the VCOM output is discharged to ground.
During a fault condition, all bits in the Enable register
are cleared (EN = CEN = 0). Driving the EN or CEN pins
high or low has no effect on the EN or CEN settings in
the Enable register.

The POK bit in the Fault register is not a fault indicator,
but rather a status indicator that is asserted to 1 after
FBNG, NEG, POS, and FBPG have all exceeded 80% of
their regulation voltages and all soft-start periods have
completed. The POK bit is set to 0 once the power-down
sequence has been initiated by setting the EN bit to 0 or
once a fault condition has occurred. The status of POK
itself does not directly affect the status of EN or CEN bits.
Note: The temperature sensor DXN/DXP short-circuit
and open-circuit “faults” are not latching faults that
cause the IC to shut down and do not set the CEN or EN
bits’ status.

the desired HVINP regulation voltage into the HVINP register through I2C (see the table below). Programming the
HVINP register to set the HVINP regulation voltage gives
the flexibility to change the HVINP regulation voltage
between each power-up sequence of the GVEE, NEG,
POS, and GVDD rails and removes external components.
To set the HVINP regulation voltage through I2C, connect
the FBP pin to GND. With FBP connected to GND, the
HVINP register is automatically loaded with 0Ah and the
HVINP regulation voltage is set to +15V after IN and VDD
have exceeded their undervoltage-lockout thresholds.
If another HVINP regulation voltage other than +15V is
desired, write a new value to the HVINP register that corresponds to the desired HVINP regulation voltage after
IN and VDD have exceeded their undervoltage-lockout
thresholds, but before EN is asserted high. The new
HVINP regulation voltage is maintained until a new value
is written to the HVINP register or the VDD input power
is cycled. After cycling VDD, the HVINP register is again
reloaded with 0Ah such that it is necessary to rewrite the
HVINP register to change the HVINP regulation voltage
to another voltage other than VHVINP = 15V.

During a fault condition, all outputs of the device are
latched off, all bits in the Enable register are set to 0, and
the corresponding bit of the fault condition is set in the
Fault register (see the table below). After the fault condition is removed, the Fault register is cleared by cycling

Conversion Rate Control Byte (0Fh) R/W
The Conversion Rate register (0Fh) programs the time
interval between conversions in the free-running autoconvert mode of the temperature sensors. This variablerate control reduces the supply current in portableequipment applications. The conversion rate control
byte’s POR state is 04h. The control mechanism looks
only at the 3 LSBs of this register, so the upper 5 bits
are “don’t care” bits, which should be set to zero. The
conversion rate tolerance is ±25% at any rate setting.

• POK is asserted high after FBNG, NEG, POS, and
FBPG have all exceeded 80% of their regulation voltages and all the corresponding power rails’ soft-start
periods have expired.
• Once EN is driven low or the EN bit in the Enable
register is set to 0 (while the EN is disconnected
or is connected to GND), POK is asserted low and
each power rail is discharged at a time depending
on the values stored in the timing registers (t5–t8).
Approximately 512ms after EN is driven low, HVINP
and HVINN are powered down but not discharged.
The power-up/power-down sequence and timing
between the GVEE, NEG, POS, and GVDD power rails
can be set by programming the t1–t8 registers with corresponding values according to the table below.

Figure 5 shows the start-up and shutdown sequence of
the power rails:
• The HVINP power rail begins its soft-start sequence
once EN is driven high or the EN bit in the Enable
register is set to 1.
• The HVINN power rail begins its soft-start sequence
once the HVINP soft-start period has expired.
• The GVEE, NEG, POS, and GVDD power rails start
up t1–t4ms after the expiration of the HVINN soft-start
period.

During power-up of the device, once IN and VDD exceed
their undervoltage-lockout thresholds, the t1–t8 registers
are loaded with values stored in the nonvolatile memory
to preset the t1–t8 timing. The factory-default timing settings in the nonvolatile memory are:
• t1 = t5 = 30ms
• t2 = t6 = 60ms
• t3 = t7 = 90ms
• t4 = t8 = 120ms
To change the preset t1–t8 timing, see the Programming
Control Register (0Ch), Write Only section.

To change the nonvolatile memory values that preset the
VCOM voltage, set EN to high to bring up the power rails.
After POK is asserted high, write the value corresponding to the desired VCOM voltage setting into the DVR
register. After the DVR register has been updated, write
1 to D0 of the PCR to update the nonvolatile memory
with the current value stored in the DVR register. The
nonvolatile memory containing the power-up DVR setting can be changed up to 30 times. The I2C bus returns
NACK if the DVR nonvolatile memory is attempted to be
programmed more than 30 times.
To change the nonvolatile memory values that preset the
power-up and power-down timing between the power
rails, set EN to high to bring up the power rails. After POK
is asserted high, write to all t1–t8 registers with the values corresponding to the desired t1–t8 timing between
power rails. The t1–t8 values cannot be stored to the
nonvolatile memory independently and all eight Timing
registers must be written to at least once before attempting to update the nonvolatile memory with any new values, even if not all values need to be changed from the
current values stored in the nonvolatile memory. Once
all the Timing registers have been written to at least
once, write 1 to D1 of the PCR to update the nonvolatile
memory with the current values stored in all t1–t8 Timing
registers. The nonvolatile memory containing the powerup and power-down timing settings can be changed up
to three times. The I2C bus returns NACK if the t1–t8
nonvolatile memory is attempted to be programmed
more than three times.
Note: VPOS needs to be greater than 7.3V in order to
successfully program the nonvolatile memory.

PCB Layout and Grounding
Careful PCB layout is important for proper operation. Use
the following guidelines for good PCB layout:
• Minimize the inner loop area created by the boost
converter high-switching current connections. Place
D1 and C3 close to the IC such that the traces connecting the LXP pin to the anode of D1, the cathode
of D1 to C3, and C3 to the PGND pin are kept as
short as possible to minimize the loop area contained
within these connections. Make these connections
with short, wide traces.
• Minimize the inner loop area created by the buckboost converter high-switching current connections.
Place C6, C7, and D2 close to the IC such that the
traces connecting C6 to the INN pin, the LXN pin to
the cathode of D2, the anode of D2 to C7, and C6
ground connection to C7 are kept as short as possible to minimize the loop area contained within these
connections. Make these connections with short,
wide traces.
• Avoid using vias in the high-current paths. If vias
are unavoidable, use many vias in parallel to reduce
resistance and inductance.
• Create a power ground island (PGND) consisting of
the PGND pin, the input and output capacitor ground
connections, the charge-pump capacitor ground connections, and the buck-boost inductor ground connection. Connect all these together with short, wide traces
or a small ground plane. Maximizing the width of the
power ground traces improves efficiency and reduces
output-voltage ripple and noise spikes. Create an analog ground plane (GND) consisting of the GND pin,
all the feedback-divider ground connections, the IN,
VDD, and REF bypass capacitor ground connections,
and the device’s exposed backside paddle.
• Connect the GND and PGND islands by connecting the PGND pin directly to the exposed backside
paddle. Make no other connections between these
separate ground planes.
22
• Place the feedback-voltage-divider resistors as close
as possible to their respective feedback pins. Keep
the traces connecting the feedback resistors to
their respective feedback pins as short as possible.
Placing the resistors far away causes the feedback
trace to become an antenna that can pick up switching noise. Care should be taken to avoid running any
feedback trace near the LXP, LXN, DP, or DN switching nodes.
• Place the IN, VDD, and REF bypass capacitors as
close as possible to the IC. The ground connections
of the IN, VDD, and REF bypass capacitors should
be connected directly to the analog ground plane or
directly to the GND pin with a wide trace.
• Minimize the length and maximize the width of the
traces between the output capacitors and the load for
best transient responses.
• Keep sensitive signals away from the LXP, LXN, DP,
and DN switching nodes. Use DC traces as a shield
if necessary.
Refer to the MAX17135 evaluation kit for an example of
proper board layout.
