GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADD8754 is optimized for use in TFT LCD applications,
requiring only external charge pump components to provide all
the requirements for panel power, VCOM, and gate modulation.
Included in a single chip are a high frequency step-up dc-to-dc
switching regulator, logic voltage regulator, VCOM amplifier, and
gate pulse modulation circuitry.
The step-up dc-to-dc converter provides up to 20 V output and
includes a 2 A internal switch. Either a 650 kHz or 1.2 MHz stepup switching regulator frequency can be chosen, allowing easy
filtering and low noise operation. It achieves 93% efficiency and
features soft start to limit the inrush current at startup.
The internal voltage regulator operates with an input voltage
range of 3 V to 5.5 V and delivers a load current of up to
350 mA. Three selectable output voltages are available: 2.5 V,
2.85 V, and 3.3 V.
The proprietary VCOM amplifier can deliver a peak output
current of 300 mA and is specifically designed to drive TFT
panel loads.
The gate pulse modulator allows shaping of the TFT gate high
voltage to improve image quality. The integrated switches
provide the ability to independently control the delay and slope
for the gate drive voltage.
The ADD8754 is offered in a 24-lead, Pb-free LFCSP package and
is specified over the industrial temperature range of −40 to +85°C.

THEORY OF OPERATION
COMP
SS
VIN_1
VIN_2
A 20 nF soft start capacitor results in negligible input-current
overshoot at startup, making it suitable for most applications.
However, if an unusually large output capacitor is used, a longer
soft start period is required to prevent large input inrush current.

CURRENT-MODE, STEP-UP SWITCHING
REGULATOR OPERATION
The ADD8754 uses current mode to regulate the output
voltage. This current-mode regulation system allows fast
transient response while maintaining a stable output voltage. By
selecting the proper resistor-capacitor network from COMP to
GND, the regulator response can be optimized for a wide range
of input voltages, output voltages, and load conditions.
Frequency Selection
The ADD8754’s frequency is user-selectable to operate either at
650 kHz to optimize the regulator for high efficiency or at
1.2 MHz for small external components. Connect FREQ to
VIN_2 for 1.2 MHz operation, or connect FREQ to GND for
650 kHz operation.
The SHDN input turns the ADD8754 on or off. When the stepup dc-to-dc converter is turned off, there is a dc path from the
input to the output through the inductor and output diode. This
causes the output voltage to remain slightly below the input
voltage by the forward voltage of the diode, preventing the
output voltage from dropping to zero when the regulator is shut
down. See Figure 25 for the typical application circuit to
disconnect the output voltage from the input voltage at
shutdown.
Setting the Output Voltage
The ADD8754 features an adjustable output voltage range of
(VIN + 2 V) to 20 V. The output voltage is set by the resistive
voltage divider from the output voltage (VOUT) to the 1.21 V
feedback input at FB. Use the following formula to determine
the output voltage:
VOUT = 1.21 V × (1 + R1/R2)
(1)
Use an R2 resistance of 10 kΩ or less to prevent output voltage
errors due to the 10 nA FB input bias current. Choose R1 based
on the following formula:
Soft Start Capacitor
The voltage at SS ramps up slowly by charging the soft start
capacitor (CSS) with an internal 2.5 μA current source. Table 8
lists the values for the soft start period based on maximum
output current and maximum switching frequency.
The soft start capacitor limits the rate of voltage rise on the
COMP pin, which in turn limits the peak switch current at
startup. Table 8 shows a typical soft start period, tSS, at the
maximum output current, IOUT_MAX, for several conditions.

The inductor ripple current (ΔIL) in steady state is
Inductor Selection
The inductor is an integral part of the step-up converter. It
stores energy during the switch-on time and transfers that
energy to the output through the output diode during the
switch-off time. Use inductance in the range of 1 μH to 22 μH.
In general, lower inductance values have higher saturation
current and lower series resistance for a given physical size.
However, lower inductance results in higher peak current,
which can lead to reduced efficiency and greater input and/or
output ripple and noise. Peak-to-peak inductor ripple current at
close to 30% of the maximum dc input current typically yields
an optimal compromise.
For determining the inductor ripple current, the input (VIN) and
output (VOUT) voltages determine the switch duty cycle (D) by
the following equation:
D=
VOUT − V IN
(3)
VOUT
ΔIL =
D
f SW
(5)

Solving for the inductance value, L,
L=

(6)
ΔI L
Make sure that the peak inductor current (the maximum input
current plus half of the inductor ripple current) is less than the
rated saturation current of the inductor. In addition, ensure that
the maximum rated rms current of the inductor is greater than
the maximum dc input current to the regulator.
For duty cycles greater than 50% that occur with input voltages
greater than half the output voltage, slope compensation is
required to maintain stability of the current-mode regulator.
For stable current-mode operation, ensure that the selected
inductance is equal to or greater than LMIN:
Using the duty cycle and switching frequency, fSW, determine
the on time by using the following equation:
tON =
V IN × t ON
L > L MIN =

ADD8754
Choosing the Input and Output Capacitors
Diode Selection
The ADD8754 requires input and output bypass capacitors to
supply transient currents while maintaining a constant input
and output voltage. Use a low effective series resistance (ESR)
10 μF or greater input capacitor to prevent noise at the
ADD8754 input. Place the capacitors between VIN_1, VIN_2,
and GND and as close as possible to the ADD8754. Ceramic
capacitors are preferred because of their low ESR characteristics. Alternatively, use a high value, medium ESR capacitor in
parallel with a 0.1 μF low ESR capacitor as close as possible to
the ADD8754.
The output diode conducts the inductor current to the output
capacitor and load while the switch is off. For high efficiency,
minimize the forward voltage drop of the diode. Schottky
diodes are recommended. However, for high voltage, high
temperature applications, where the Schottky diode reverse
leakage current becomes significant and can degrade efficiency,
use an ultrafast junction diode.
The output capacitor maintains the output voltage and supplies
current to the load while the ADD8754 switch is on. The value
and characteristics of the output capacitor greatly affect the
output voltage ripple and stability of the regulator. Use a low
ESR output capacitor; ceramic dielectric capacitors are
preferred.
For very low ESR capacitors such as ceramic capacitors, the
ripple current due to the capacitance is calculated as follows.
Because the capacitor discharges during the on time, tON, the
charge removed from the capacitor, QC, is the load current
multiplied by the on time. Therefore, the output voltage ripple
(ΔVOUT) is

The diode must be rated to handle the average output load
current. Many diode manufacturers derate the current
capability of the diode as a function of the duty cycle. Verify
that the output diode is rated to handle the average output load
current with the minimum duty cycle. The minimum duty cycle
of the ADD8754 is
Use of external components to compensate the regulator loop
allows optimization of the loop dynamics for a given application.
A step-up converter produces an undesirable right-half plane
zero in the regulation feedback loop. This requires compensating the regulator such that the crossover frequency occurs well
below the frequency of the right-half plane zero. The right-half
plane zero is determined by the following equation:

To determine the crossover frequency, it is important to note
that at that frequency the compensation impedance (ZCOMP) is

VCOM AMPLIFIER
The output of the VCOM amplifier is designed to control the
voltage on the VCOM plane of the LCD display. The VCOM
amplifier is designed to source and sink the capacitive pulse
current and ensure stable operation with high load capacitance.
The delay capacitance in farad is calculated using the following
equation:
CE = (Delay Time) × 0.000238
The RE in ohms is calculated using the following equation:
Input Overvoltage Protection
Whenever the input exceeds the supply voltage, attention must
be paid to the input overvoltage characteristics. When an
overvoltage occurs, the amplifier can be damaged, depending
on the voltage level and the magnitude of the fault current.
When the input voltage exceeds the supply voltage by more
than 0.6 V, the internal pin junctions allow current to flow from
the input to the supplies. This input current is not inherently
damaging to the device, provided it is 5 mA or less.
RE =

When the voltage on the VDPM pin is less than the turn-on
threshold value, the CE pin is internally connected to GND to
discharge the delay capacitor.

The gate pulse modulator is used for LCD applications in which
shaping of the gate high voltage signal improves image quality.
A charge pump is used to generate the on voltage, VGH. A lower
gate voltage level, VDD_1, is desired during the last portion of
the gate’s on time and is provided by VOUT. The integrated gate
pulse modulator circuit provides control over the slope and delay
of the transition between these two TFT on-voltage levels.
When the control voltage VFLK switches from logic low to logic
high during normal operation with VDPM at logic high (see
Figure 21), the output voltage VGH_M transitions from VDD_1
to VGH. When the control voltage VFK switches from logic
high to logic low, the output voltage VGH_M transitions from
VGH to VDD_1 after a time delay determined by the size of a
capacitor from the CE pin to the GND and a slew rate
determined by the size of resistor from the RE pin to the GND.

VFLK is a digital control signal, usually provided by the timing

POWER-UP SEQUENCE
LDO Input Capacitor Selection
Most LCD panels require that when VIN is applied, LDO_OUT,
VGL, BOOST_OUT, VGH, and VGH_M are established
sequentially, as indicated in Figure 22. ADD8754 provides this
sequence with appropriate capacitors for the VGL and VGH
charge pumps.
For the input voltage of the ADD8754 LDO regulator (VIN_1),
a local bypass capacitor is recommended. The input capacitor
provides bypassing for the internal amplifier used in the voltage
regulation loop. Use at least a 1 μF low ESR capacitor. Larger
input capacitance and lower ESR provide better supply noise
rejection. Multilayer ceramic chip (MLCC) capacitors provide
the best combination of low ESR and small size.
VIN
LDO Output Capacitor Selection
SHDN
The output capacitor improves the regulator response to sudden
load changes. The output capacitor helps determine the performance of any LDO. The ADD8754 LDO requires at least a 2.2 μF
capacitor. Transient response is a function of output capacitance,
in that larger values of output capacitance decrease peak deviations, providing improved transient response for large load
current changes.

ADJ as an open circuit, a nominal voltage of 2.85 V is selected.

Applying a TTL high signal to the shutdown pin (tying it to the

below (tying it to GND) turns off all outputs. In shutdown
mode, quiescent current is reduced to a typical value of 300 μA.

ADD8754
POWER DISSIPATION
VCOM Amplifier
The ADD8754’s maximum power dissipation depends on the
thermal resistance from the IC die to the ambient environment
and the ambient temperature. The thermal resistance depends
on the IC package, PC board copper area, other thermal mass,
and airflow. The ADD8754, with the exposed backside pad
soldered to a 2-layer PC board with nine 12 mil-diameter
thermal vias, can dissipate about 1.5 W into 65°C still air before
the die exceeds 125°C. More PC board copper, cooler ambient
air, and more airflow increase the dissipation capability, whereas
less copper or warmer air decreases the IC’s dissipation capability.
The major contributors to the power dissipation are the LDO
regulator and the VCOM amplifier.
The power dissipated in the VCOM amplifier depends on the
output current, the output voltage, and the supply voltage:
Step-Up Converter
The largest portions of power dissipation in the step-up
converter are the internal MOSFET, the inductor, and the output
diode. For a 90% efficiency step-up converter, about 3% to 5% of
the power is lost in the internal MOSFET, about 3% to 4% in the
inductor, and about 1% in the output diode. The rest of the 1%
to 3% is distributed among the input and output capacitors and
the PC board traces. For an input power of about 3 W, the
power lost in the internal MOSFET is about 90 mW to 150 mW.
LDO
The power dissipated in the LDO depends on the output
current, the output voltage, and the supply voltage:
PDSOURCE = IOUT (source) × (VDD_2 − VOUT)
PDSINK = IOUT (sink) × VOUT
where:
IOUT (source) is the output current sourced by the VCOM
amplifier.
IOUT (sink) is the output current that the VCOM amplifier sinks to
AGND.
In a typical case where the supply voltage is 12 V and the output
voltage is 6 V with an output source current of 20 mA, the
power dissipated is 120 mW.
Thermal Overload Protection
Thermal overload protection prevents excessive power dissipation
from overheating the ADD8754. When the junction temperature
exceeds TJ = 145°C, a thermal sensor immediately activates the
fault protection, which shuts down the device, allowing the IC
to cool. The device self-starts once the die temperature falls
below TJ = 105°C.
Thermal overload protection protects the controller in the event
of fault conditions. For continuous operation, do not exceed the
absolute maximum junction temperature rating of TJ = 125°C.

LAYOUT GUIDELINES
Layout Procedure
When designing a high frequency, switching, regulated power
supply, layout is very important. Using a good layout can solve
many problems associated with these types of supplies. Some of
the main problems are loss of regulation at high output current
and/or large input-to-output voltage differentials, excessive
noise on the output and switch waveforms, and instability.
Using the following guidelines can help minimize these
problems.
To achieve high efficiency, good regulation, and stability, a good
PCB layout is required. It is recommended that the reference
board layout be followed as closely as possible because it is
already optimized for high efficiency and low noise.
Make all power (high current) traces as short, direct, and thick
as possible. It is good practice on a standard PCB board to make
the traces an absolute minimum of 15 mil (0.381 mm) per
Ampere. The inductor, output capacitors, and output diode
should be as close to each other as possible. This helps reduce
the EMI radiated by the power traces that is due to the high
switching currents through them. This also reduces lead
inductance and resistance, which in turn reduce noise spikes,
ringing, and resistive losses that produce voltage errors.
The grounds of the IC, input capacitors, output capacitors, and
output diode (if applicable), should be connected close together,
directly to a ground plane. It is also a good idea to have a ground
plane on both sides of the printed circuit board (PCB). This
reduces noise by reducing ground-loop errors and absorbing
more of the EMI radiated by the inductor.
For multilayer boards of more than two layers, a ground plane
can be used to separate the power plane (power traces and
components) and the signal plane (feedback, compensation,
and components) for improved performance. On multilayer
boards, the use of vias is required to connect traces and different
planes. If a trace needs to conduct a significant amount of current
from one plane to the other, it is good practice to use one standard
via per 200 mA of current. Arrange the components so that the
switching current loops curl in the same direction.
Use the following general guidelines when designing PCBs:
1.
Keep CIN close to the IN and GND leads of the ADD8754.
2.
Keep the high current path from CIN (through L1) to the
SW and PGND leads as short as possible.
3.
Keep the high current path from CIN (through L1), D1,
and COUT as short as possible.
4.
Keep high current traces as short and wide as possible.
5.
Keep nodes connected to SW away from sensitive traces
such as FB or COMP to prevent coupling of the traces. If
these traces need to be run near each other, place a ground
trace between the two as a shield.
6.
Place the feedback resistors as close as possible to the FB pin
to prevent noise pickup.
7.
Place the compensation components as close as possible to
the COMP pin.
8.
Avoid routing noise-sensitive traces near the high current
traces and components.
9.
Use a thermal pad size that is the same as the dimension of
the exposed pad on the bottom of the package.
Heat Sinking
When using a surface-mount power IC or external power
switches, the PCB can often be used as the heat sink. This is
done by simply using the copper area of the PCB to transfer
heat from the device.
Due to the how switching regulators operate, there are two
power states: one state when the switch is on, and one when the
switch is off. During each state, there is a current loop made by
the power components currently conducting. Place the power
components so that the current loop is conducting in the same
direction during each of the two states. This prevents magnetic
field reversal caused by the traces between the two half cycles
and reduces radiated EMI.

Figure 27. ADD8754 with Programmable VCOM
The VCOM calibration for flicker reduction is one of the essential
steps in the panel manufacturing process. In a typical panel
production environment, such a process can take additional
time to complete and, therefore, impacts production throughput.
One additional concern is that a potentiometer typically used
only for calibration offers limited resolution. The resistance can
drift over time and can be noticeable after a few years of operation.
The production throughput, image quality, and panel reliability
concerns can all be solved by using a digital potentiometer. As
shown in Figure 27, AD5259, a low cost 256-step digital potentiometer with nonvolatile memory, can calibrate the ADD8754
VCOM voltage precisely, reliably, and time efficiently.
In the worst case, where the temperature, aging effect, and
resistance tolerance of the AD5259 are all accounted for, the
circuit in Figure 27 makes the VCOM voltage adjustable from
3.0 V to 5.0 V with 15 mV per step adjustment. A micro-
controller or I2C programmer can be used to provide the
control signal for the AD5259, but ADI provides programming
software that simplifies the calibration process. The software
can be installed in the factory computer, and two tester probes
can be connected to the computer’s parallel port to implement the
VCOM programming.
The VCOM voltage can be calculated as
VCOM
D
× R AB + R 3
256
=
× 7 × VOUT
R 4 + R AB + R 3
where:
D is the decimal code of the AD5259 programmable resistance
between the W-to-B terminals.
RAB is the AD5259 nominal resistance.
