PCA9901 One wire single LED driver Rev. 01 — 3 December 2009 Product data sheet 1. General description The PCA9901 is a 20 mA current source for a single LED that allows stand-alone blinking of a predefined pattern to off-load the microcontroller and save battery power. Programming of the device is done through a training sequence: the host controller sends the LED lighting sequence and the PCA9901 memorizes it. Once the sequence has been memorized, the PCA9901 can be programmed to send it once or in a loop until the host controller requests the sequence to be stopped. Commands and blinking sequence are sent through a uni-directional one-wire interface. Commands include: Training Start, Training End, Execute Sequence (once or in loop until a Stop Command is requested) and Reset. A blinking sequence includes up to 3 different blinking patterns, each defined by its ON and OFF timings. A bypass mode allows the training sequence to be ignored and the LED output to follow the one-wire interface Logic state to directly control the LED from the microcontroller. An external resistor sets the maximum current that flows in the LED, which can be set between 1 mA and 20 mA. The PCA9901 operates from a 2.7 V to 5.5 V power supply. 2. Features 1 wire interface to control the device Stand-alone blinking capability while training the sequence to blink Sequence includes up to 3 blinking elements 12-bit (4096 steps) LED ON and OFF timings for each blinking element: ON timing is captured between 1 ms and 255 ms OFF timing is captured between 20 ms and 5.1 s 1.8 V compliant one-wire logic interface Training Start, Training End, Run-Once, Run, Stop and Reset commands High side current controlled LED driver with 1 mA to 20 mA max current in the LED set by an external resistor. 5 mA drive capability when no external resistor is connected 110 mV max dropout voltage driver at 20 mA Fully internal oscillator for sequence training, LED timing, Command and Sequencing Controls Short circuit and thermal protection 2.7 V to 5.5 V power supply Very low quiescent current: < 0.75 μA PCA9901 NXP Semiconductors One wire single LED driver ESD protection exceeds 2000 V HBM per JESD22-A114, 200 V MM per JESD22-A115, and 1000 V CDM per JESD22-C101 Latch-up testing is done to JEDEC Standard JESD78, which exceeds 100 mA Temperature range: −40 °C to +85 °C Packages offered: TSSOP8, XSON8U, WLCSP6 3.

Functional description Refer to Figure 2 “Block diagram of PCA9901”. 8.1 Digital interface overview - CTRL pin The digital interface is a simple one-wire uni-directional interface allowing the host controller device to: • send the lighting sequence to the LEDOUT pin and request the PCA9901 to capture and memorize it at the same time • send the specific commands to execute the captured and memorized sequence later • reset the PCA9901 to a known state at any time. The lighting sequence to be captured by the PCA9901 contains the actual LED ON (CTRL = 1) and LED OFF (CTRL = 0) timings. A sequence includes up to 3 different patterns, each one containing one ON and one OFF value. Up to 3 LED ON and 3 LED OFF times can then be memorized by the PCA9901. Commands are specific events that tell the PCA9901 what action needs to be performed. The different commands are: TRAINING START: Beginning of the training sequence. Upon reception of this command, the PCA9901 starts capturing the lighting sequence. TRAINING END: End of the training sequence. Upon reception of this command, the capture stops, and the sequence is stored in the corresponding registers. The PCA9901 goes to Shutdown mode. RUN ONCE: The sequence that has been memorized is executed once and then the PCA9901 goes to Shutdown mode. If no sequence has been previously captured, the PCA9901 goes to Shutdown mode. RUN: The sequence that has been memorized is executed until a STOP Command occurs. STOP: The LED output is switched off at the end of the current LED ON time and the PCA9901 goes to Shutdown mode. RESET: The PCA9901 is reset and all the internal registers default to zeroes. The PCA9901 goes to Shutdown mode. The PCA9901 decodes the commands using a 1.5 ms window from the first LOW to HIGH transition that occurs on the CTRL pin. The following command or the data following a command must then be issued at least 1.5 ms after. At the end of the 1.5 ms window: • The PCA9901 is fully operational (in the case the command is issued while the PCA9901 was in Shutdown mode) • The command has been successfully decoded and the PCA9901 is ready for the next message from the host controller (which will start at the next LOW to HIGH transition on the CTRL pin), or is ready to execute the required command.

Rev. 01 — 3 December 2009 5 of 27 PCA9901 NXP Semiconductors One wire single LED driver 8.2 Command descriptions 8.2.1 TRAINING START command 2 pulses sent to the PCA9901 in less than 1.5 ms causes the PCA9901 to enter the Training mode. The PCA9901 leaves the Shutdown mode as soon as the 1st rising edge is detected, resets its registers to zeroes and is ready for sequence capture within the 1.5 ms. The next assertion of the CTRL pin (LOW to HIGH transition) starts the first LED ON period capture. CTRL cannot be asserted in less than 1.5 ms after the TRAINING START command has been issued. 8.2.2 TRAINING END command 3 pulses sent to the PCA9901 in less than 1.5 ms causes the PCA9901 to leave the Training mode. The PCA9901 ends the last LED OFF period capture when the TRAINING END command occurs. The PCA9901 goes to Shutdown mode. 8.2.3 RUN ONCE command 4 pulses sent to the PCA9901 in less than 1.5 ms causes the device to enter the RUN ONCE mode and wait for a ‘synchronization’ rising edge on CTRL. When a rising edge on CTRL is detected, the sequence that has been previously captured is run once. If no sequence has been captured it will go into Shutdown mode. Once the sequence has been run, the PCA9901 goes to Shutdown mode. Remark: CTRL line may stay either HIGH or LOW after the ‘synchronization’ edge. 8.2.4 RUN command A LOW to HIGH transition followed by a HIGH state longer than 1.5 ms causes the sequence that has been previously captured to be executed in loop. The CTRL pin stays HIGH as long as the sequence is executed. If no sequence has been captured it will go into Shutdown mode. 8.2.5 STOP command A HIGH to LOW transition when the PCA9901 is in the RUN mode causes the sequence that is running to stop: • Immediately, if the transition occurred during the LED OFF time • After finishing the execution of the current LED ON cycle if the transition occurred during the LED ON time. Once the sequence has been stopped, the PCA9901 goes to Shutdown mode. PCA9901_1 Product data sheet © NXP B.V. 2009. All rights reserved. Rev. 01 — 3 December 2009 6 of 27 PCA9901 NXP Semiconductors One wire single LED driver 8.2.6 RESET command A single pulse sent to the PCA9901 in less than 1.5 ms causes the PCA9901 to go to Shutdown mode and to reset its registers to zeroes. 8.3 State machine power-up; registers reset to zeroes no patterns memorized RUN or RUN ONCE Shutdown mode RESET RUN ONCE PCA9901 up and running TRAINING START PCA9901 up and running; registers reset to zeroes time-out detected during training sequence training sequence; LEDOUT follows CTRL state TRAINING END sequence sent by host controller TRAINING END PCA9901 up and running sequence memorized; LEDOUT off sequence is sent once to LEDOUT(1) LEDOUT follows CTRL state: LEDOUT = ON when CRTL = HIGH; LEDOUT = OFF when CTRL = LOW RUN PCA9901 up and running sequence is sent (loop) to LEDOUT(1) STOP Bypass mode when registers still at zeroes RESET registers reset to zeroes 002aac605 (1) PCA9901 goes directly to Shutdown mode if a training sequence has not been previously performed.

Rev. 01 — 3 December 2009 7 of 27 PCA9901 NXP Semiconductors One wire single LED driver 8.4 Lighting training sequence Training sequence starts after a TRAINING START command has been issued by the host controller and ends after a TRAINING END command has been issued. The LED ON timing is provided when CTRL is HIGH and the LED OFF timing is provided when CTRL is LOW. LEDOUT follows CTRL Logic state during the Training sequence: The LED is ON when CTRL = HIGH, and the LED is OFF when CTRL = LOW. The sequence is as follows: Pattern 1 ON – Pattern 1 OFF – Pattern 2 ON – Pattern 2 OFF – Pattern 3 ON – Pattern 3 OFF A sequence composed by only 1 or 2 patterns can also be stored by issuing the TRAINING END command after either the 1st or the 2nd pattern. Non-programmed registers during the training sequence remain programmed with zeroes; when the state machine encounters a Zero ON time register, it loops to the beginning of the sequence. • LED ON timing: 1 ms step with a 12-bit resolution – Time between 1 ms and at least 255 ms. An ON time higher than 255 ms causes the ON counter to saturate at max value (0xFF). • LED OFF timing: 20 ms step with a 12-bit resolution – Time between at least 20 ms and 5.1 s. An OFF time higher than 5.1 s causes the OFF counter to saturate at max value (0xFF). ON and OFF timings are stored on the 8-bit registers. The registers are reset to zeroes when the host controller sends a TRAINING START or RESET command.

A TRAINING START command followed immediately by a TRAINING END command enters the Bypass mode. Once the TRAINING END command has been issued, the LEDOUT output follows the CTRL logic state (LED ON when CTRL = HIGH, LED OFF when CTRL = 0). Sending a RESET command exits the Bypass mode. The Bypass mode allows the microcontroller to directly control the LED and blink it or dim it. PCA9901_1 Product data sheet © NXP B.V. 2009. All rights reserved. Rev. 01 — 3 December 2009 9 of 27 PCA9901 NXP Semiconductors One wire single LED driver 8.8 Time-out The time-out circuitry allows the PCA9901 to be safely set back to the Shutdown mode when a communication problem occurs between the host controller and the PCA9901. 8.8.1 CTRL LOW too long after receiving a TRAINING START command The PCA9901 is waiting for the first LED ON timing. 1. Once the TRAINING START command has been decoded (end of the 1.5 ms window), a time-out counter starts counting as long as CTRL stays LOW. 2. The time-out counter counts until it reaches the maximum allowed ON value. The maximum allowed ON time is greater than or equal to 255 ms. Remark: If CTRL goes HIGH before reaching the maximum counter value, the time-out counter is reset and the PCA9901 starts counting the LED ON timing or decoding the command that has been issued. 3. If the maximum time-out value is reached, the training sequence is automatically terminated and the PCA9901 goes to Shutdown mode. Remark: When the time-out occurs and the PCA9901 goes to Shutdown mode, the registers are still programmed with zeroes. 8.8.2 CTRL HIGH too long during the training sequence The PCA9901 is counting the ON timing and reaches the counter maximum value (0xFF). If CTRL does not go LOW when reaching the max value: 1. The PCA9901 switches off the LEDOUT pin. 2. Maximum ON count is stored in the corresponding ON register. 3. A time-out counter starts counting until it reaches the maximum allowed OFF value. The maximum allowed OFF time is greater than or equal to 5.11 seconds. 4. When the maximum time-out counter value is reached, maximum OFF count is stored in the corresponding OFF register. Remark: If CTRL goes LOW before reaching the maximum counter value, the time-out counter is reset and the PCA9901 starts counting the LED OFF timing. 5. If the maximum time-out value is reached, the training sequence is automatically terminated and the PCA9901 goes to Shutdown mode. 8.8.3 CTRL LOW too long during the training sequence The PCA9901 is counting the OFF timing and reaches the counter maximum value (0xFF). If CTRL does not go HIGH when reaching the maximum value: 1. Maximum OFF count is stored in the corresponding OFF register. 2. A time-out counter starts counting until it reaches the maximum allowed OFF value. The maximum allowed OFF time is greater than or equal to 5.11 seconds. 3. When the maximum time-out counter value is reached, the training sequence is automatically terminated and the PCA9901 goes to Shutdown mode. Remark: If CTRL goes HIGH before reaching the maximum counter value, the time-out counter is reset and the PCA9901 starts counting the LED ON timing or decoding the command that has been issued.

Rev. 01 — 3 December 2009 10 of 27 PCA9901 NXP Semiconductors One wire single LED driver 8.8.4 ‘Synchronization’ signal not generated after RUN ONCE command The PCA9901 is waiting for the ‘Synchronization’ signal (rising edge of CTRL) after a RUN ONCE command has been issued. 1. Once the RUN ONCE command has been decoded (end of the 1.5 ms window), a time-out counter starts counting as long as CTRL stays LOW. 2. The time-out counter counts until it reaches the maximum allowed ON value. The maximum allowed ON time is greater than or equal to 255 ms. Remark: If CTRL goes HIGH before reaching the maximum counter value, the time-out counter is reset and the PCA9901 runs the sequence once. 3. If the maximum time-out value is reached, the RUN ONCE command is automatically aborted and the PCA9901 goes to Shutdown mode. 8.9 Current source generation The LED output contains a constant current driver that will source a current that is determined by an external resistor connected between ISET pin and GND. The current can be set using the following formula: ( 1.23 × 400 ) I O = -----------------------------R ext (1) Rext can be chosen so that a maximum LED current value between 1 mA and 20 mA can be programmed. Remark: LED current accuracy is proportional to the accuracy and temperature coefficient tolerance of Rext. When no external resistor is connected between the ISET pin and GND, the LED output is able to source 5 mA through a fully internal current source. It is automatically shut down when an external resistor is connected to ISET. Remark: The LED current accuracy is proportional to the tolerance and temperature coefficient of the resistor. Remark: To save power, the current source generator is only enabled when the LED needs to be turned on. 8.10 Short-circuit and thermal protection A short-circuit and thermal protection circuitry disables the LED output driver and the current generator when a short occurs or when a high temperature condition has been detected. The circuitry is active during normal mode operation (Programing, RUN ONCE, RUN or Bypass modes). When a fault condition is detected, the reference current circuitry (ISET) and the LED output stage (LEDOUT) are automatically shut down. This will cause LEDOUT to be OFF as long as the fault condition is present. The other analog blocks (oscillator, voltage reference) are kept enabled as long as the PCA9901 is in normal mode operation. The PCA9901 goes automatically to Power-down mode when it exits the programming, RUN ONCE, RUN or Bypass modes. PCA9901_1 Product data sheet © NXP B.V. 2009. All rights reserved. Rev. 01 — 3 December 2009 11 of 27 PCA9901 NXP Semiconductors One wire single LED driver If the fault condition goes away during normal mode operation, the reference current circuitry and the LED output stage are again enabled, allowing the PCA9901 to resume control of the LED output stage (LEDOUT). A short-circuit condition is detected when the PCA9901's current consumption becomes higher than 50 mA. An overtemperature condition is detected when the temperature goes above 125 °C. It goes away when the temperature goes 15 °C below the overtemperature condition. 8.11 Shutdown mode Shutdown mode is the low power mode where the internal oscillator, band gap, current generator and LED driver are turned off to save power, and is the default mode at power-up. Shutdown mode is automatically entered after: • • • • • A RUN ONCE sequence has been executed A STOP command A TRAINING END command A RESET command A Time-out condition has been detected. When in Shutdown mode, setting CTRL HIGH immediately exits the Shutdown mode: the oscillator and the band gap are turned on and it takes up to 1.5 ms for the device to be up and running and decode the command issued by the host controller. 8.12 Reset Reset mode is achieved by sending a RESET command and causes all the registers to be reset to zeroes and the device to go to Shutdown mode.

Soldering of SMD packages This text provides a very brief insight into a complex technology. A more in-depth account of soldering ICs can be found in Application Note AN10365 “Surface mount reflow soldering description”. 15.1 Introduction to soldering Soldering is one of the most common methods through which packages are attached to Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), to form electrical circuits. The soldered joint provides both the mechanical and the electrical connection. There is no single soldering method that is ideal for all IC packages. Wave soldering is often preferred when through-hole and Surface Mount Devices (SMDs) are mixed on one printed wiring board; however, it is not suitable for fine pitch SMDs. Reflow soldering is ideal for the small pitches and high densities that come with increased miniaturization. 15.2 Wave and reflow soldering Wave soldering is a joining technology in which the joints are made by solder coming from a standing wave of liquid solder. The wave soldering process is suitable for the following: • Through-hole components • Leaded or leadless SMDs, which are glued to the surface of the printed circuit board Not all SMDs can be wave soldered. Packages with solder balls, and some leadless packages which have solder lands underneath the body, cannot be wave soldered. Also, leaded SMDs with leads having a pitch smaller than ~0.6 mm cannot be wave soldered, due to an increased probability of bridging. The reflow soldering process involves applying solder paste to a board, followed by component placement and exposure to a temperature profile. Leaded packages, packages with solder balls, and leadless packages are all reflow solderable. Key characteristics in both wave and reflow soldering are: • • • • • • Board specifications, including the board finish, solder masks and vias Package footprints, including solder thieves and orientation The moisture sensitivity level of the packages Package placement Inspection and repair Lead-free soldering versus SnPb soldering 15.3 Wave soldering Key characteristics in wave soldering are: • Process issues, such as application of adhesive and flux, clinching of leads, board transport, the solder wave parameters, and the time during which components are exposed to the wave • Solder bath specifications, including temperature and impurities PCA9901_1 Product data sheet © NXP B.V. 2009. All rights reserved. Rev. 01 — 3 December 2009 20 of 27 PCA9901 NXP Semiconductors One wire single LED driver 15.4 Reflow soldering Key characteristics in reflow soldering are: • Lead-free versus SnPb soldering; note that a lead-free reflow process usually leads to higher minimum peak temperatures (see Figure 15) than a SnPb process, thus reducing the process window • Solder paste printing issues including smearing, release, and adjusting the process window for a mix of large and small components on one board • Reflow temperature profile; this profile includes preheat, reflow (in which the board is heated to the peak temperature) and cooling down. It is imperative that the peak temperature is high enough for the solder to make reliable solder joints (a solder paste characteristic). In addition, the peak temperature must be low enough that the packages and/or boards are not damaged. The peak temperature of the package depends on package thickness and volume and is classified in accordance with Table 7 and 8 Table 7. SnPb eutectic process (from J-STD-020C) Package thickness (mm) Package reflow temperature (°C) Volume (mm3) < 350 ≥ 350 < 2.5 235 220 ≥ 2.5 220 220 Table 8.

Soldering of WLCSP packages 16.1 Introduction to soldering WLCSP packages This text provides a very brief insight into a complex technology. A more in-depth account of soldering WLCSP (Wafer Level Chip-Size Packages) can be found in application note AN10439 “Wafer Level Chip Scale Package” and in application note AN10365 “Surface mount reflow soldering description”. Wave soldering is not suitable for this package. All NXP WLCSP packages are lead-free. 16.2 Board mounting Board mounting of a WLCSP requires several steps: 1. Solder paste printing on the PCB 2. Component placement with a pick and place machine 3. The reflow soldering itself 16.3 Reflow soldering Key characteristics in reflow soldering are: • Lead-free versus SnPb soldering; note that a lead-free reflow process usually leads to higher minimum peak temperatures (see Figure 16) than a PbSn process, thus reducing the process window PCA9901_1 Product data sheet © NXP B.V. 2009.

Temperature profiles for large and small components For further information on temperature profiles, refer to application note AN10365 “Surface mount reflow soldering description”. 16.3.1 Stand off The stand off between the substrate and the chip is determined by: • The amount of printed solder on the substrate • The size of the solder land on the substrate PCA9901_1 Product data sheet © NXP B.V. 2009. All rights reserved. Rev. 01 — 3 December 2009 23 of 27 PCA9901 NXP Semiconductors One wire single LED driver • The bump height on the chip The higher the stand off, the better the stresses are released due to TEC (Thermal Expansion Coefficient) differences between substrate and chip. 16.3.2 Quality of solder joint A flip-chip joint is considered to be a good joint when the entire solder land has been wetted by the solder from the bump. The surface of the joint should be smooth and the shape symmetrical. The soldered joints on a chip should be uniform. Voids in the bumps after reflow can occur during the reflow process in bumps with high ratio of bump diameter to bump height, i.e. low bumps with large diameter. No failures have been found to be related to these voids. Solder joint inspection after reflow can be done with X-ray to monitor defects such as bridging, open circuits and voids. 16.3.3 Rework In general, rework is not recommended. By rework we mean the process of removing the chip from the substrate and replacing it with a new chip. If a chip is removed from the substrate, most solder balls of the chip will be damaged. In that case it is recommended not to re-use the chip again. Device removal can be done when the substrate is heated until it is certain that all solder joints are molten. The chip can then be carefully removed from the substrate without damaging the tracks and solder lands on the substrate. Removing the device must be done using plastic tweezers, because metal tweezers can damage the silicon. The surface of the substrate should be carefully cleaned and all solder and flux residues and/or underfill removed. When a new chip is placed on the substrate, use the flux process instead of solder on the solder lands. Apply flux on the bumps at the chip side as well as on the solder pads on the substrate. Place and align the new chip while viewing with a microscope. To reflow the solder, use the solder profile shown in application note AN10365 “Surface mount reflow soldering description”. 16.3.4 Cleaning Cleaning can be done after reflow soldering. 17.
