Constant Current Programmable LED Driver with 32 Dimming Levels

CAT4003B, CAT4004B
Constant Current
Programmable LED Driver
with 32 Dimming Levels
Description
http://onsemi.com
The CAT4003B and CAT4004B provide respectively three and four
matched low dropout current sources to drive LEDs. The CAT400XB
requires no external RSET resistor. The LED current is internally set
to 25 mA when the device is first enabled. Each LED channel includes
an individual control loop allowing the device to handle a wide range
of LED forward voltages while still maintaining tight current
matching.
The EN/DIM logic input supports the device enable and a digital
dimming interface for setting the LED channel current with 32 linear
dimming levels.
LEDs can be powered directly from a Lithium−ion battery due to the
low dropout (75 mV at 20 mA) current sinks.
Package options are available in the 4−channel tiny 8−pad UDFN
2 mm x 2 mm with a max height of 0.55 mm, and 3− channel in the
6−lead TSOT−23, TSOP and SC−70.

Pin Functions
into “zero current” shutdown mode, the EN/DIM pin must
be held low for 3 ms typical
LED1 to LED4 provide the internal regulated current for
each of the LED cathodes. The pins enter a high impedance
zero current state whenever the device is placed in shutdown
mode.
GND is the ground reference for the device. The pin must be
connected to the ground plane on the PCB.
TAB (CAT4004B only) 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.
VIN is the supply pin for the charge pump. A small 1 mF
ceramic bypass capacitor is required between the VIN pin
and ground near the device. The operating input voltage
range is from 2.4 V to 5.5 V. Whenever the input supply falls
below the under−voltage threshold (2.0 V), all the LED
channels are disabled and the device enters shutdown mode.
EN/DIM is the enable and one wire dimming input for all
LED channels. Levels of logic high and logic low are set at
1.3 V and 0.4 V respectively. When EN/DIM is initially
taken high, the CAT400XB becomes enabled and all LED
currents are set to the full scale 25 mA. To place the device

Figure 12. CAT4004B Functional Block Diagram
Basic Operation
The full scale current is calculated from the above formula
with n equal to zero.
The EN/DIM pin has two primary functions. One function
enables and disables the device. The other function is LED
current dimming with 32 different levels by pulsing the input
signal, as shown on Figure 1. On each successive pulse
rising edge, the LED current is decreased by about 3.2%
(1/31st of the full scale value). After 30 pulses, the LED
current is 3.2% of the full scale current. On the 31st pulse, the
current drops to zero, and then goes back to full scale on the
following pulse.
Initially once the EN/DIM input is first pulled high, it
must remain high for at least TSETUP delay (10 ms minimum)
to allow the LED driver to complete its power−up. After this
delay, EN/DIM can be pulsed in order to set the LED current
to the desired level. Each pulse width should be between
1 ms and 500 ms. Pulses faster than the minimum TLO may
be ignored and filtered by the device. Pulses longer than the
maximum TLO may shutdown the device. By pulsing the
EN/DIM signal at a high frequency, the LED current can
quickly be set to zero or to any other level.
The CAT400XB uses tightly matched current sinks to
accurately regulate LED current in each channel.
There are 32 different settings for LED brightness that can
be programmed through the EN/DIM pin. Tight current
regulation for all channels is possible over a wide range of
input and LED voltages due to independent current sensing
circuitry on each channel.
Each LED channel needs a minimum of 75 mV headroom
to sink a constant regulated current of 20 mA. If the input
supply falls below 2.0 V, the under−voltage lockout circuit
disables all LED channels and resets the circuit to default
values. Any unused LED channels should be left open.
CAT400XB LED Current Selection
After power−up and once enabled, the LED current is set
initially to the full scale currrent of 25 mA. The number of
pulses (n) on the EN/DIM input does decrease the current
value as follows:
LED current [mA] + 25
ǒ3131* nǓ
http://onsemi.com
7
CAT4003B, CAT4004B
The LED driver enters a “zero current” shutdown mode if
EN/DIM is held low for longer than 5 ms.
The dimming level is set by the number of pulses on the
EN/DIM after the power−up, as shown in Table 6.
