Applications
„
The SC619 has two modes of operation: flash mode and
spotlight mode. In flash mode, the SC619 is capable of
delivering 500mA of regulated current for a duration of
500ms or up to 700mA for a reduced duration. A safety
timer is also included to ensure the LED cannot be left on
indefinitely and overheat. In spotlight mode the SC619
outputs 20% of the flash mode current and can remain
enabled continuously.

An external resistor is connected in series with the LED to
set the current. In flash mode, this resistor can dissipate
up to 175mW, reducing the power dissipation requirement of the SC619. The flash input overrides the control
input to make sure the flash function is activated .
The SC619 ultra-thin package provides both a low profile
and high thermal efficiency.

Applications Information
The SC619 is a powerful dual-mode charge pump designed
to drive a high-intensity white LED. A constant current
spotlight mode or a pulsed current with higher intensity is
used for camera flash. The device operates in 2x mode
while operating in flash mode. In spotlight mode it can
operate in either 2x or 1x mode depending on the load
current, load voltage, and input voltage levels.

In flash mode the SC619 output can drive 500mA at 4.25V
into an LED for a minimum duration of 500ms under all
temperature and input conditions. The FLASH pin is used
to trigger this mode (active high). In spotlight mode the
SC619 regulates the output current to 20% of the flash
mode current setting, when the CTRL pin is pulled high
and the FLASH pin is low. Flash mode has priority over
spotlight mode, i.e., the FLASH pin triggers flash mode
regardless of the state of the CTRL pin.
example, 700mA derates to a maximum of 350ms. In
flash mode, IOUT = 250mV/RISET. Figure 1 shows maximum
flash mode current for extended duration times.
Flash Current [mA]
General Operation
Output current is regulated by attaching the ISET pin to
the cathode(s) of the LED package and a low resistance
sense resistor (typically 0.5Ω). The ISET pin monitors the
voltage at the cathode and signals the charge pump to
increase or decrease the output current until the ISET
voltage reaches the programmed setting. The resistor
value is chosen to set the current through the LED based
on this reference voltage. The resistor can be chosen to
set either the flash mode current or spotlight mode
current, but it should not be less than 0.35Ω due to output
current limitations of the device.
Flash Mode
Flash mode is enabled whenever the FLASH pin is pulled
high and remains active until the FLASH pin is released.
This mode has higher priority than spotlight mode, so the
state of the CTRL pin is overridden whenever the FLASH
pin is activated. While in flash mode the reference voltage
on the ISET pin is set to 250mV. The duration of the pulse
is limited by the amount of power that can be dissipated
in the SC619 before it exceeds the maximum operating
temperature. If an output current less than the rated
500mA is desired, the duration of the pulse can increase
proportionally.
Extending flash mode beyond the 500ms pulse limit could
adversely affect the long term reliability of the SC619.
Flash duration must be derated at higher currents. For

Flash Mode Safety Timer
The SC619 provides a time-out protection function when
in flash mode. The output is disabled if the FLASH pin is
held high for longer than 1 second to protect the LED.
Once this time-out has occurred, the output will stay disabled until the FLASH pin has been pulled low and then
re-enabled.
Spotlight Mode
Spotlight mode is enabled by setting the CTRL pin high
and keeping the FLASH pin low. When in spotlight mode,
the SC619 can maintain a constant current indefinitely to
drive an LED or bank of LEDs. The ISET reference voltage
is set to 50mV so that the output current is maintained at
100mA when a 0.5Ω resistor is used. Spotlight current is
always 20% of flash current for any given value of RISET. In
spotlight mode, IOUT = 50mV/RISET.
To maximize power efficiency, the SC619 has been
designed to operate in 1x mode when conditions do not
require the charge pump to be active. When first enabled
the SC619 attempts to regulate the voltage on the ISET
pin in 1x mode. If the voltage on the ISET pin cannot be
maintained and this condition persists for longer than
32ms, then the charge pump will change to 2x mode
operation. In a typical application, the SC619 will operate
in 1x mode until the supply voltage decreases sufficiently

Applications Information (continued)
that the voltage on the ISET pin can no longer be maintained. After a 32ms delay (included to prevent false
transitions) the charge pump will convert to 2x mode.
After the charge pump switches from 1x mode to 2x
mode, the device remains in 2x mode until the part is
turned off. If the part is re-enabled in spotlight mode, it
will begin operation in 1x mode and determine the
appropriate mode of operation as previously described.
Over-Current Protection
When the SC619 is in 2x mode, the input current will be
approximately double the required output. When the
steady-state load requires the maximum current available in 2x mode, the OCP circuit prevents the device from
overheating from excessive power dissipation. This
feature protects the device when in 1x mode. The current
limit is set lower in the 1x mode due to lower current
requirements.

Short-Circuit Current Protection
SSCP is provided to limit the current that can be sourced
when the output is shorted to ground. When a short
circuit forces VOUT to drop below 2V, the SCCP detects the
condition and limits the output current.

The SC619 provides several protection features to safeguard the device from catastrophic failures. These features
include:
Input Over-Voltage Protection (IOVP)
Output Over-Voltage Protection (OVP)
Over-Temperature Protection (OTP)
Over-Current Protection (OCP)
Short-Circuit Current Protection (SCCP)
Input Over-Voltage Protection
IOVP is included to prevent operation at high input voltages that could damage the device. The IOVP circuit
senses the input voltage and determines when the supply
exceeds 6V. Hysteresis is included in this circuit to avoid
chattering between states. When the voltage rises above
this threshold, the device is disabled until the input
voltage drops to a level within the specified range.
Output Over-Voltage Protection
Output OVP prevents the SC619 from generating an
output voltage that could damage other devices connected to it such as load LEDs and bypass capacitors.
When the output voltage exceeds 5.5V, the OVP circuit
disables the charge pump until the voltage decreases to
a level within the acceptable range. This circuit allows the
device to drive LEDs with high forward voltages at a
reduced level without exceeding the output voltage
limits specified for the device.
Over-Temperature Protection
The OTP circuit prevents the device from overheating and
experiencing a catastrophic failure. When the junction
temperature exceeds 150°C the device is disabled. It
remains disabled until the junction temperature drops
below this threshold. Hysteresis is included to prevent
toggling between modes.
Resistor Selection
The ISET resistor selection is critical in generating the
correct current. The value can be chosen to set the spotlight mode current or the flash mode current, and the
two current settings are dependent on the same resistor.
It is recommended that the resistor be selected to match
the desired LED current for flash mode. This allows the
designer to set the SC619’s maximum current and select
the resistor package size necessary for the power dissipation required in flash mode. The typical application
uses a 0.5Ω resistor to set a flash mode current of 500mA
and spotlight mode current of 100mA. A high precision
resistor should be used to ensure the specified accuracy
for LED current.
To avoid malfunction of the charge pump, it is recommended that the resistance seen at the ISET pin remain
constant while the device is active (flash or spotlight
mode). Changing the resistance value or the load current
while the device is active could cause instability.
Capacitor Selection
The SC619 is designed to use low-ESR ceramic capacitors
for the input and output bypass capacitors as well as the
charge pump bucket capacitors. Ideal performance is
achieved when C1 is exactly equal to C2. It is recommended that X5R or X7R ceramic capacitors be used for
best performance.

PCB Layout Considerations
The following layout is suggested for a two-layer design.
The capacitors C1 and C2 are the bucket capacitors and
each conducts the full load current of up to 500mA pulsed
for one half clock cycle. C3 is the output decoupling
capacitor placed near the VOUT pin. C4 is the input
decoupling capacitor placed near the VIN pin. Multiple
vias should be used whenever it is necessary to change
layers on nets connecting to pins VIN, VOUT, GND, C1-,
C1+, C2- and C2+.
while in flash or spotlight mode. It is critical to maintain
adequate ground plane around the device to maximize
heat transfer and avoid over-temperature shutdown.

The load current return path is from the ISET sense point
through the resistor and back to the ground pins.
Resistance in this path adds to the total resistance and
has the effect of reducing the LED current by about 4%
per 10mV of DC drop across the return copper trace in
flash mode. For this reason, it is crucial to have a low resistance return path. Place and ground the resistor as close
as possible to the ground pin of the SC619. The trace from
the ISET pin has virtually no current. The ISET trace should
make contact at the pad of the power sense resistor to
minimize the effect of voltage drop between the LED
cathode and the resistor.
Resistor R1 is routed with a very low resistance connection between R1 and GND pin 3. The sense trace between
Pin 6 and R1 is routed around the ground vias, allowing
the shortest ground return path possible. The sense trace
is connected to R1 at the positive terminal pad for the
most accurate output possible. The bottom copper layer
is mostly a ground plane with no obstructions between
the ground vias. The smaller rectangle to the left connects the input power to VIN pin 1 and input capacitor
C4. The two traces at the lower left are for logic inputs
FLASH and CTRL. The trace to the right is the ISET pin
sense trace. The sense trace is routed out of the path of
the returning ground current.
Thermal Resistance Considerations
The SC619 package is thermally efficient when the circuit
board layout connects the thermal pad through multiple
vias to the ground plane. The thermal resistance is rated
at 40°C/W, and this rating is dependent on the connection between the thermal pad and the ground plane. The
layout should keep the junction temperature below the
OTP limit while operating the SC619 within the specified
electrical conditions for IOUT and VISET. A poor layout may
allow the junction temperature to reach the OTP limit
