A small 1µF ceramic bypass capacitor is required between the VIN pin and ground near the device. The operating input voltage range is from 2.2V to 5.5V. Whenever the input supply falls below the undervoltage threshold (2V) all LEDs channels will be automatically disabled. VOUT is the charge pump output that is connected to the LED anodes. A small 1µF ceramic bypass capacitor is required between the VOUT pin and ground near the device. GND is the ground reference for the charge pump. The pin must be connected to the ground plane on the PCB. EN/DIM is the enable and dimming control logic input for all LED channels. Guaranteed levels of logic high and logic low are set at 1.3V and 0.4V respectively. When EN/DIM is initially taken high, the device becomes enabled and all LED currents remain at 0mA. The falling edge of the first pulse applied to EN/DIM sets all LED currents to their full scale of 31mA. C1+, C1- are connected to each side of the 1µF ceramic bucket capacitor C1. C2+, C2- are connected to each side of the 1µF ceramic bucket capacitor C2. LED1 to LED4 provide the internal regulated current for each of the LED cathodes. These pins enter a high impedance zero current state whenever the device is placed in shutdown mode. In applications using less than four LEDs, all unused channels should be wired directly to VOUT. This ensures the channel is automatically disabled dissipating less than 200µA. On each consecutive falling edge of the pulse applied to EN/DIM, the LED current is decreased by 1mA step. On the 32nd pulse, the LED current is set to zero. The next pulse on EN/DIM resets the current back to their full scale of 31mA. TAB is the exposed pad underneath the package. For best thermal performance, the tab should be soldered to the PCB and connected to the ground plane. To place the device into zero current shutdown mode, the EN/DIM pin must be held low for 1.5ms or more. Notes: (1) LED1, LED2, LED3, LED4 pins should not be left floating. They should be connected to the LED cathode, or tied to VOUT pin if not used. Doc. No. MD-5035, Rev. C 8 © 2008 SCILLC. All rights reserved.

CAT3614 Functional Block Diagram BASIC OPERATION At power-up, the CAT3614 starts operating in 1x mode where the output will be approximately equal to the input supply voltage (less any internal voltage losses). If the output voltage is sufficient to regulate all LED currents the device remains in 1x operating mode. In 1.5x mode, the output is approximately equal to 1.5 times the input supply voltage (less any internal voltage losses). The above sequence is repeated each and every time the chip is powered-up or is taken out of shutdown mode (via EN/DIM pin). If the input voltage is insufficient or falls to a level where the regulated currents cannot be maintained, the device automatically switches (after a fixed delay of 400µs) into 1.5x mode. © 2008 SCILLC.

When the device temperature drops down by about 20ºC, the device resumes normal operation. LED Current Setting Figure 1 shows the timing diagram necessary at the EN/DIM input for setting the LED currents. The EN/DIM set up time requires the signal to be held high for 10µs or longer to ensure the initialization of the driver at power-up. Each subsequent pulse on the EN/DIM (300ns to 200µs pulse duration) steps down the LED current from full scale of 31mA to zero with a 1mA resolution. Consecutive pulses should be separated by 300ns or longer. Pulsing beyond the 0mA level restores the current level back to full scale and the cycle repeats. Pulsing frequencies from 5kHz up to 1MHz can be supported during dimming operations. When the EN/DIM is held low for 1.5ms or more, the CAT3614 enters the shutdown mode and draws “zero” current. External Components The driver requires a total of four external 1µF ceramic capacitors: two for decoupling input and output, and two for the charge pump. Both capacitor types X5R and X7R are recommended for the LED driver application. In the 1.5x charge pump mode, the input current ripple is kept very low by design, and an input bypass capacitor of 1µF is sufficient. In 1x mode, the device operating in linear mode does not introduce switching noise back onto the supply. Recommended Layout In 1.5x charge pump mode, the driver switches internally at a high frequency of 1MHz. It is recommended to minimize trace length to all four capacitors. A ground plane should cover the area under the driver IC as well as the bypass capacitors. Short connection to ground on capacitors Cin and Cout can be implemented with the use of multiple vias. A copper area matching the TDFN exposed pad (GND) must be connected to the ground plane underneath. The use of multiple vias improves the package heat dissipation. For applications with three LEDs or less, any unused LED pins should be tied to VOUT, as shown on Figure 3. Protection Mode If an LED becomes open-circuit, the output voltage VOUT is internally limited to about 5.5V. This is to prevent the output pin from exceeding its absolute maximum rating. 1µF VIN 3V to CIN 5.5V 1µF C1+ C1- C2+ VIN C2- COUT CAT3614 C1+ VIN VOUT LED1 ENABLE/ DIMMING 1µF 1µF 1µF 3V to CIN 5.5V 1µF 1µF C1- C2+ VIN VOUT LED1 ENABLE/ DIMMING LED3 GND LED4 Flash LED 120mA LED2 EN/DIM LED3 GND Figure 3.
