RT8304
60V, 4-CH, Programmable Current Sink LED Driver for
1D/2D/3D Dimming Applications
General Description
Features
The RT8304 is a 4-CH constant current sink LED driver
which can drive 4-CH constant current with good matching
ability.
z
The RT8304 provides ±3% high accuracy current each
channel. The range of the constant current output is
programmable from 30mA to 360mA by SPI interface. It
also supports the local dimming and scan dimming by 4
independent PWM generators with programmable PWM
duty cycle, period and delay. The dropout voltage of output
channel is 0.5V as the output constant current is 150mA
which can accept wide range VF variation. Moreover, the
RT8304 provides Dynamic Headroom Control (DHC)
function which can generate feedback signal to DC/DC
control loop and regulate the output voltage.

The RT8304 also provides LED open/short protection. If
there is any channel open or short, the FLT pin will pull
low and the output channel will be turned off individually.
The RT8304 is available in the WDFN-16L 5x5 package to
achieve optimized solution for PCB space.

Operation
The RT8304 is a 4-CH constant current sink LED driver
with 12-bit depth for PWM control. The daisy chain Serial
Peripheral Interface (SPI) bus control can shift the input
data into each channel buffer with dependent pixel gray
scale and shift out input data to output pin SDO. The
RT8304 supports local and scan dimming by PWM Control
and Channel Select block. In PWM Control block, there
are four independent PWM generators with programmable
PWM duty cycle, period and delay. Channel Select block
can decide which channel should be enabled.
The RT8304 provides ±3% high accurate current for each
channel by Constant Current Control Circuit block. The
dropout voltage of output channel is 0.5V as the output

constant current is 150mA which can accept wide range
VF variation. The range of the constant current output is
from 30mA to 360mA which is adjusted by 236-step
Current Setting block. Besides, a Dynamic Headroom
Control (DHC) function is designed to generate a feedback
signal for DC/DC control loop and regulate the output
voltage.
Furthermore, the RT8304 provides LED open/short and
OTP protection by Fault Detection block. If there is any
channel open/short, the FLT pin will pull low and the output
channel will be turned off individually. If the internal junction
temperature exceeds 150°C, all output channels will be
turned off.

RT8304
Application Information
The RT8304 is a 4-CH LED current source controller with
SPI interface control. The RT8304 regulates the lowest
voltage of the LED strings and generates a feedback control
signal to a primary controller to regulate the LED current.
Each channel constant current which ensures the
difference in output current value of 4 channels and ICs is
smaller than 3% and 3% in SYNC and ASYNC mode LED
brightness control, respectively. The range of the constant
current output is programmable from 30mA to 360mA by
SPI interface. Moreover, the RT8304 also provides Dynamic
Headroom Control (DHC) function which can generate
feedback signal to DC/DC control loop and regulate the
output voltage of the RT8304. The RT8304 also features
several protections including Short-LED Protection (SLP),
Open-LED Protection (OLP), and Over-Temperature
Protection (OTP).
SYNC Mode Dimming : When the PWM_Control register
is set to 0x10h, the dimming mode operates in SYNC
Mode. During the PWM dimming, the current source turns
on/off according to the VSYNC signal. The LED current
frequency is equivalent to VSYNC frequency. In this mode,
the VSYNC and ILED dimming cycle will delay one period
as shown in the following Figure 6.
The LED current high time and delay time can be
calculated as follows :
PWM_HT_Data
High Time =
× Sampled CLK
4096
PWM_Delay_ Data
Delay Time =
× Sampled CLK
4096
The sampled CLK equals VSYNC period. PWM High +
delay time can exceed VSYNC period to fulfill complex
scanning requirements if PWM_HT_Data is FFFh.
PWM_Delay_Data should be 000h.
SYNC Mode and ASYNC Mode Brightness Dimming
ASYNC Mode Dimming : When the PWM_Control register
The RT8304 allows two ways of controlling the LED
brightness.
is set to 0x15h, the dimming mode operates in ASYNC
Mode. During the PWM dimming, the current source turns
on/off according to the internal clock, as shown in the
following Figure 7.

Dynamic Headroom Control Function (DHC)
The Dynamic Headroom Control (DHC) function is used
to generate feedback signal to primary DC/DC control loop
and regulate the LED current of the RT8304. This function
can improve IC's thermal performance and efficiency. The
RF1, RF2 and RF3 selection is shown in below
equations :
VLED(Default) = VREF × (1+ RF1 )

is shown as the following Figure 8.

Power-On and Power-Off Sequence
When power converter output voltage and supply voltage
of the RT8304 are both ready, EN pulled high will enable
the RT8304. Then, IC will check whether the channel is
unused or not in power on reset time (256μs) in the first
period. The unused channel needs to be short to GND or
the FLT pin will be turned on. The second period is softstart time (128ms), and the RT8304 feedback voltage is
3.3V in this period. Then, IC gets into the third period,
fault blanking time (256ms), and the fault signal would be
ignored even LED in Short/Open condition. After the fault
blanking time, the fault function will be turned on. As for
power off sequence, IC will be shut down when the EN pin
is pulled low for 32ms. The power on sequence is shown
in Figure 9.

RT8304
Over-Temperature Protection (OTP)
Short-LED Protection (SLP)
The RT8304 has an over-temperature protection function
to prevent overheating due to excessive power dissipation.
The OTP will disable all channels if the junction
temperature exceeds 150°C and send a fault signal. The
channels are re-enabled when the junction temperature
cools down by approximately 30°C.
If the voltage of VLEDx is > VSLP after fault blanking
period, the SLP function will be triggered. Moreover, there
is an adjustable blanking time on every rising part of current
regulator on. When the counter accumulates to 2μs, this
short channel will be off and latched. The FLT pin will be
pulled low. The fault state can only be released by current
regulator off after 32ms. The operation and protection flow
is shown as the following Figure 10.
Open-LED Protection (OLP)
If the VLEDx is < 50mV after a fault blanking period, the
counter will be triggered when PWM is high. Moreover,
there is an adjustable blanking time on every rising part of
current regulator on. When the counter accumulates to
2μs, only this open channel will be off but not latched.
The FLT pin will be pulled low.

Thermal Considerations
PD(MAX) = (TJ(MAX) − TA) / θJA
where TJ(MAX) is the maximum junction temperature, TA is
the ambient temperature, and θJA is the junction to ambient
thermal resistance.
For recommended operating condition specifications, the
maximum junction temperature is 125°C. The junction to
ambient thermal resistance, θJA, is layout dependent. For
WDFN-16L 5x5 package, the thermal resistance, θJA, is
28.5°C/W on a standard JEDEC 51-7 four-layer thermal
test board. The maximum power dissipation at TA = 25°C
can be calculated by the following formula :
Maximum Power Dissipation (W)1
For continuous operation, do not exceed absolute
maximum junction temperature. The maximum power
dissipation depends on the thermal resistance of the IC
package, PCB layout, rate of surrounding airflow, and
difference between junction and ambient temperature. The
maximum power dissipation can be calculated by the
following formula :

PD(MAX) = (125°C − 25°C) / (28.5°C/W) = 3.5W for
WDFN-16L 5x5 package
The maximum power dissipation depends on the operating
ambient temperature for fixed T J(MAX) and thermal
resistance, θJA. The derating curves in Figure 11 allow
the designer to see the effect of rising ambient temperature
on the maximum power dissipation.
