TFT-LCD Power Supply
Features
The EL7586 and EL7586A represent multiple output
regulators for use in all large panel, TFT-LCD applications.
Both feature a single boost converter with an integrated 2A
FET, two positive LDOs for VON and VLOGIC generation,
and a single negative LDO for VOFF generation. The boost
converter can be programmed to operate in either P-mode
or PI-mode for improved load regulation.
• 2A current limit FET options
Both EL7586 and EL7586A also integrate fault protection for
all four channels. Once a fault is detected, the device is
latched off until the input supply or EN is cycled. EL7586
also features an integrated start-up sequence for
VBOOST/VLOGIC, VOFF, then VON or for VLOGIC, VOFF,
VBOOST, and VON. The latter requires a single external
transistor. The timing of the start-up sequence is set using
an external capacitor.
EL7586A features an immediately-enabled VLOGIC output
which is independent of EN input. The VLOGIC output will be
switched off if a fault is detected and the power supply needs
to be recycled to reset this condition.
Both the EL7586 and EL7586A are pin-compatible, come in
the 20 Ld 4x4 QFN package, and are specified for operation
over the -40°C to +85°C temperature range.
• Up to 20V boost out
• 1% regulation on all outputs
• VLOGIC-VOFF-VBOOST-VON or
VBOOST/VLOGIC-VOFF-VON sequence control
- VLOGIC is on from start-up for EL7586A
• Programmable sequence delay
• Fully fault protected
• Thermal shutdown
• Internal soft-start
• 20 Ld 4x4 QFN packages
• Pb-free plus anneal available (RoHS compliant)
Applications

Applications Information
Boost Converter
The EL7586 and EL7586A provide a high integrated multiple
output power solution for TFT-LCD applications. The system
consists of one high efficiency boost converter and three
linear-regulator controllers (VON, VOFF, and VLOGIC) with
multiple protection functions. A block diagram is shown in
Figure 25. Table 1 lists the recommended components.
The main boost converter is a current mode PWM converter
at a fixed frequency of 1MHz which enables the use of low
profile inductors and multiplayer ceramic capacitors. This
results in a compact, low cost power system for LCD panel
design.
The EL7586, and EL7586A integrate an N-channel
MOSFET boost converter to minimize external component
count and cost. The AVDD, VON, VOFF, and VLOGIC output
voltages are independently set using external resistors.
VON, VOFF voltages require external charge pumps which
are post regulated using the integrated LDO controllers.

current mode at light load. In continuous current mode,
current flows continuously in the inductor during the entire
switching cycle in steady state operation. The voltage
conversion ratio in continuous current mode is given by:
A VDD
1
---------------- = ------------1–D
V IN
Where D is the duty cycle of the switching MOSFET.
Figure 26 shows the block diagram of the boost regulator. It
uses a summing amplifier architecture consisting of GM
stages for voltage feedback, current feedback and slope
compensation. A comparator looks at the peak inductor
current cycle by cycle and terminates the PWM cycle if the
current limit is reached.
An external resistor divider is required to divide the output
voltage down to the nominal reference voltage. Current
drawn by the resistor network should be limited to maintain
the overall converter efficiency. The maximum value of the
resistor network is limited by the feedback input bias current
and the potential for noise being coupled into the feedback
pin. A resistor network in the order of 60kΩ is recommended.
The boost converter output voltage is determined by the
following equation:
R1 + R2
A VDD = --------------------- × V REF
R1
The current through the MOSFET is limited to 2A peak for
the EL7586. This restricts the maximum output current
based on the following equation:
V IN
∆I
I OMAX =  I LMT – --------L × --------
2  VO
Where ∆IL is peak to peak inductor ripple current, and is set
by:
V IN D
∆I L = --------- × ----L

where fS is the switching frequency.

The EL7586, and EL7586A can operate in either P mode or
PI mode. Connecting the CINT pin directly to VIN will enable
P mode; For better load regulation, use PI mode with a
4.7nF capacitor in series with a 10K resistor between CINT
and ground. This value may be reduced to improve transient
performance, however, very low values will reduce loop
stability.
Input Capacitor
Boost Feedback Resistors
An input capacitor is used to supply the peak charging
current to the converter. It is recommended that CIN be
larger than 10µF. The reflected ripple voltage will be smaller
with larger CIN. The voltage rating of input capacitor should
be larger than maximum input voltage.
As the boost output voltage, AVDD, is reduced below 12V the
effective voltage feedback in the IC increases the ratio of
voltage to current feedback at the summing comparator
because R2 decreases relative to R1. To maintain stable
operation over the complete current range of the IC, the
voltage feedback to the FBB pin should be reduced
proportionally, as AVDD is reduced, by means of a series
resistor-capacitor network (R7 and C7) in parallel with R1,
with a pole frequency (fp) set to approximately 10kHz for C2
effective = 10µF and 4kHz for C2 (effective) = 30µF.
Boost Inductor
The boost inductor is a critical part which influences the
output voltage ripple, transient response, and efficiency.
Values of 3.3µH to 10µH are to match the internal slope
compensation. The inductor must be able to handle the
following average and peak current:
R7 = ((1/0.1 x R2) - 1/R1)^-1
C7 = 1/(2 x 3.142 x fp x R7)
IO
I LAVG = -----------1–D
PI Mode CINT (C23) and RINT (R10)
∆I
I LPK = I LAVG + --------L
2
The IC is designed to operate with a minimum C23 capacitor
of 4.7nF and a minimum C2 (effective) = 10µF.
Rectifier Diode
A high-speed diode is necessary due to the high switching
frequency. Schottky diodes are recommended because of
their fast recovery time and low forward voltage. The rectifier
diode must meet the output current and peak inductor
current requirements.
Output Capacitor
The output capacitor supplies the load directly and reduces
the ripple voltage at the output. Output ripple voltage
consists of two components: the voltage drop due to the
inductor ripple current flowing through the ESR of output
capacitor, and the charging and discharging of the output
capacitor.
V O – V IN
IO
1
V RIPPLE = I LPK × ESR + ------------------------ × ---------------- × ----VO
C OUT f S
For low ESR ceramic capacitors, the output ripple is
dominated by the charging and discharging of the output
12
Note that, for high voltage AVDD, the voltage coefficient of
ceramic capacitors (C2) reduces their effective capacitance
greatly; a 16V 10µF ceramic can drop to around 3µF at 15V.
To improve the transient load response of AVDD in PI mode,
a resistor may be added in series with the C23 capacitor. The
larger the resistor the lower the overshoot but at the expense
of stability of the converter loop - especially at high currents.
With L = 10µH, AVDD = 15V, C23 = 4.7nF, C2 (effective)
should have a capacitance of greater than 10µF. RINT (R7)
can have values up to 5kΩ for C2 (effective) up to 20µF and
up to 10K for C2 (effective) up to 30µF.
Larger values of RINT (R7) may be possible if maximum
AVDD load currents less than the current limit are used. To
ensure AVDD stability, the IC should be operated at the
maximum desired current and then the transient load
response of AVDD should be used to determine the
maximum value of RINT.

EL7586, EL7586A
Operation of the DELB Output Function
An open drain DELB output is provided to allow the boost
output voltage, developed at C2 (see application diagram),
to be delayed via an external switch (Q4) to a time after the
VBOOST supply and negative VOFF charge pump supply
have achieved regulation during the start-up sequence
shown in Figures 33 and 34. This then allows the AVDD and
VON supplies to start-up from 0V instead of the normal offset
voltage of VIN-VDIODE (D1) if Q4 were not present.
When DELB is activated by the start-up sequencer, it sinks
50µA allowing a controlled turn-on of Q4 and charge-up of
C9. C16 can be used to control the turn-on time of Q4 to
reduce inrush current into C9. The potential divider formed
by R9 and R8 can be used to limit the VGS voltage of Q4 if
required by the voltage rating of this device. When the
voltage at DELB falls to less than 0.6V, the sink current is
increased to ~1.2mA to firmly pull DELB to 0V.
The voltage at DELB is monitored by the fault protection
circuit so that if the initial 50µA sink current fails to pull DELB
below ~0.6V after the start-up sequencing has completed,
then a fault condition will be detected and a fault time-out
ramp will be initiated on the CDEL capacitor (C7).
Operation of the PG Output Function
The PG output consists of an internal pull-up PMOS device to
VIN, to turn-off the external Q1 protection switch and a current
limited pull-down NMOS device which sinks ~15µA allowing a
controlled turn-on of Q1 gate capacitance. CO is used to
control how fast Q1 turns-on - limiting inrush current into C1.
When the voltage at the PG pin falls to less than 0.6V, the PG
sink current is increased to ~1.2mA to firmly pull the pin to 0V.
The voltage at PG is monitored by the fault protection circuit
so that if the initial 15µA sink current fails to pull PG below
~0.6V after the start-up sequencing has completed, then a
fault condition will be detected and a fault time-out ramp will
be initiated on the CDEL capacitor (C7).
Cascaded MOSFET Application
A 20V N-channel MOSFET is integrated in the boost
regulator. For the applications where the output voltage is
greater than 20V, an external cascaded MOSFET is needed
as shown in Figure 27. The voltage rating of the external
MOSFET should be greater than VBOOST.

Linear-Regulator Controllers (VON, VLOGIC, and
VOFF)
The EL7586 and EL7586A include three independent linearregulator controllers, in which two are positive output voltage
(VON and VLOGIC), and one is negative. The VON, VOFF,
and VLOGIC linear-regulator controller functional diagrams,
applications circuits are shown in Figures 28, 29, and 30
respectively.
Calculation of the Linear Regulator Base-Emitter
Resistors (RBL, RBP and RBN)
For the pass transistor of the linear regulator, low frequency
gain (Hfe) and unity gain freq. (fT) are usually specified in the
datasheet. The pass transistor adds a pole to the loop
transfer function at fp = fT/Hfe. Therefore, in order to
maintain phase margin at low frequency, the best choice for
a pass device is often a high frequency low gain switching
transistor. Further improvement can be obtained by adding a
base-emitter resistor RBE (RBP, RBL, RBN in the Functional
Block Diagram), which increase the pole frequency to:
fp = fT*(1+ Hfe *re/RBE)/Hfe, where re = KT/qIc. So choose
the lowest value RBE in the design as long as there is still
enough base current (IB) to support the maximum output
current (IC).
We will take as an example the VLOGIC linear regulator. If a
Fairchild FMMT549 PNP transistor is used as the external
pass transistor, Q5 in the application diagram, then for a
maximum VLOGIC operating requirement of 500mA the data
sheet indicates Hfe_min = 100.
The base-emitter saturation voltage is: Vbe_max = 1.25V
(note this is normally a Vbe ~ 0.7V, however, for the Q5
transistor an internal Darlington arrangement is used to
increase it's current gain, giving a 'base-emitter' voltage of
2 x VBE).
(Note that using a high current Darlington PNP transistor for
Q5 requires that VIN > VLOGIC + 2V. Should a lower input
voltage be required, then an ordinary high gain PNP
transistor should be selected for Q5 so as to allow a lower
collector-emitter saturation voltage).

The VON power supply is used to power the positive supply
of the row driver in the LCD panel. The DC/DC consists of an
external diode-capacitor charge pump powered from the
inductor (LX) of the boost converter, followed by a low
dropout linear regulator (LDO_ON). The LDO_ON regulator
uses an external PNP transistor as the pass element. The
onboard LDO controller is a wide band (>10MHz)
transconductance amplifier capable of 4mA drive current,
which is sufficient for up to 40mA or more output current
under the low dropout condition (forced beta of 10). Typical
VON voltage supported by EL7586 and EL7586A ranges
from +15V to +36V. A fault comparator is also included for
monitoring the output voltage. The undervoltage threshold is
set at 25% below the 1.2V reference.
The VOFF power supply is used to power the negative
supply of the row driver in the LCD panel. The DC/DC
consists of an external diode-capacitor charge pump
powered from the inductor (LX) of the boost converter,
followed by a low dropout linear regulator (LDO_OFF). The
LDO_OFF regulator uses an external NPN transistor as the
pass element. The onboard LDO controller is a wide band
(>10MHz) transconductance amplifier capable of 4mA drive
current, which is sufficient for up to 40mA or more output
current under the low dropout condition (forced beta of 10).
Typical VOFF voltage supported by EL7586 and EL7586A
ranges from -5V to -20V. A fault comparator is also included
for monitoring the output voltage. The undervoltage
threshold is set at 200mV above the 0.2V reference level.
The VLOGIC power supply is used to power the logic circuitry
within the LCD panel. The DC/DC may be powered directly
from the low voltage input, 3.3V or 5.0V, or it may be
powered through the fault protection switch. The
LDO_LOGIC regulator uses an external PNP transistor as
the pass element. The onboard LDO controller is a wide
band (>10MHz) transconductance amplifier capable of
16mA drive current, which is sufficient for up to 160mA or

In the applications where the charge pump output voltage is

Discontinuous/Continuous Boost Operation and
it's Effect on the Charge Pumps
The EL7586 and EL7586A VON and VOFF architecture uses
LX switching edges to drive diode charge pumps from which
LDO regulators generate the VON and VOFF supplies. It can
be appreciated that should a regular supply of LX switching
edges be interrupted, for example during discontinuous
operation at light AVDD boost load currents, then this may
affect the performance of VON and VOFF regulation depending on their exact loading conditions at the time.
To optimize VON/VOFF regulation, the boundary of
discontinuous/continuous operation of the boost converter
can be adjusted, by suitable choice of inductor given VIN,
VOUT, switching frequency and the AVDD current loading, to
be in continuous operation.
FN9210.2
January 17, 2006
EL7586, EL7586A
The following equation gives the boundary between
discontinuous and continuous boost operation. For
continuous operation (LX switching every clock cycle) we
require that:
For the EL7586, VBOOST and VLOGIC soft-start at the
beginning of the third ramp. The soft-start ramp depends on
the value of the CDLY capacitor. For CDLY of 220nF, the
soft-start time is ~2ms.
I(AVDD_load) > D*(1-D)*VIN/(2*L*FOSC)
The EL7586A is the same as the EL7586 except VREF and
VLOGIC turn on when input voltage (VDD) exceeds 2.5V.
When a fault is detected, the outputs and the input protection
will turn off but VREF will stay on.
where the duty cycle, D = (AVDD - VIN)/AVDD
For example, with VIN = 5V, FOSC = 1.0MHz and AVDD =
12V we find continuous operation of the boost converter can
be guaranteed for:
L = 10µH and I(AVDD) > 61mA
L = 6.8µH and I(AVDD) > 89mA
L = 3.3µH and I(AVDD) > 184mA
Charge Pump Output Capacitors
Ceramic capacitors with low ESR are recommended. With
ceramic capacitors, the output ripple voltage is dominated by
the capacitance value. The capacitance value can be
chosen by the following equation:
I OUT
C OUT ≥ -----------------------------------------------------2 × V RIPPLE × f OSC
VOFF turns on at the start of the fourth peak. At the fifth
peak, the open drain o/p DELB goes low to turn on the
external PMOS Q4 to generate a delayed VBOOST output.
VON is enabled at the beginning of the sixth ramp. AVDD,
PG, VOFF, DELB and VON are checked at end of this ramp.
Fault Protection
Once the start-up sequence is complete, the voltage on the
CDLY capacitor remains at 1.15V until either a fault is
detected or the EN pin is disabled. If a fault is detected, the
voltage on CDLY rises to 2.4V at which point the chip is
disabled until the power is recycled or enable is toggled.
Component Selection for Start-Up Sequencing and
Fault Protection
where fOSC is the switching frequency.
Start-Up Sequence
Figure 33 and 34 show a detailed start-up sequence
waveform. For a successful power up, there should be six
peaks at VCDLY. When a fault is detected, the device will
latch off until either EN is toggled or the input supply is
recycled.
When the input voltage is higher than 2.5V, an internal
current source starts to charge CCDLY to an upper threshold
using a fast ramp followed by a slow ramp. During the initial
slow ramp, the device checks whether there is a fault
condition. If no fault is found, CCDLY is discharged after the
first peak and VREF turns on.
During the second ramp, the device checks the status of
VREF and over temperature. At the peak of the second
ramp, PG output goes low and enables the input protection
PMOS Q1. Q1 is a controlled FET used to prevent in-rush
current into VBOOST before VBOOST is enabled internally.
Its rate of turn on is controlled by Co. When a fault is
detected, M1 will turn off and disconnect the inductor from
VIN.
With the input protection FET on, NODE1 (See Typical
Application Diagram) will rise to ~VIN. Initially the boost is
not enabled so VBOOST rises to VIN-VDIODE through the
output diode. Hence, there is a step at VBOOST during this
part of the start-up sequence. If this step is not desirable, an
external PMOS FET can be used to delay the output until the
boost is enabled internally. The delayed output appears at
AVDD.
16
The CREF capacitor is typically set at 220nF and is required
to stabilize the VREF output. The range of CREF is from
22nF to 1µF and should not be more than five times the
capacitor on CDEL to ensure correct start-up operation.
The CDEL capacitor is typically 220nF and has a usable
range from 47nF minimum to several microfarads - only
limited by the leakage in the capacitor reaching µA levels.
CDEL should be at least 1/5 of the value of CREF (See
above). Note with 220nF on CDEL the fault time-out will be
typically 50ms and the use of a larger/smaller value will vary
this time proportionally (e.g. 1µF will give a fault time-out
period of typically 230ms).
Fault Sequencing
The EL7586 and EL7586A have advanced fault detection
systems which protects the IC from both adjacent pin shorts
during operation and shorts on the output supplies.
A high quality layout/design of the PCB, in respect of
grounding quality and decoupling is necessary to avoid
falsely triggering the fault detection scheme - especially
during start-up. The user is directed to the layout guidelines
and component selection sections to avoid problems during
initial evaluation and prototype PCB generation.

Over-Temperature Protection
An internal temperature sensor continuously monitors the
die temperature. In the event that the die temperature
exceeds the thermal trip point of 140°C, the device will shut
down.
Layout Recommendation
The device's performance including efficiency, output noise,
transient response and control loop stability is dramatically
affected by the PCB layout. PCB layout is critical, especially
at high switching frequency.
There are some general guidelines for layout:
1. Place the external power components (the input
capacitors, output capacitors, boost inductor and output
diodes, etc.) in close proximity to the device. Traces to
these components should be kept as short and wide as
possible to minimize parasitic inductance and resistance.
2. Place VREF and VDD bypass capacitors close to the pins.
3. Minimize the length of traces carrying fast signals and
high current.
4. All feedback networks should sense the output voltage
directly from the point of load, and be as far away from LX
node as possible.
5. The power ground (PGND) and signal ground (SGND)
pins should be connected at only one point near the main
decoupling capacitors.
6. The exposed die plate, on the underneath of the
package, should be soldered to an equivalent area of
metal on the PCB. This contact area should have multiple
via connections to the back of the PCB as well as
connections to intermediate PCB layers, if available, to
maximize thermal dissipation away from the IC.
7. To minimize the thermal resistance of the package when
soldered to a multi-layer PCB, the amount of copper track
and ground plane area connected to the exposed die
plate should be maximized and spread out as far as
possible from the IC. The bottom and top PCB areas
especially should be maximized to allow thermal
dissipation to the surrounding air.
8. A signal ground plane, separate from the power ground
plane and connected to the power ground pins only at the
exposed die plate, should be used for ground return
connections for feedback resistor networks (R1, R11,
R41) and the VREF capacitor, C22, the CDELAY capacitor
C7 and the integrator capacitor C23.
9. Minimize feedback input track lengths to avoid switching
noise pick-up.
A demo board is available to illustrate the proper layout
implementation.
