The AAT3129 is a tri-mode load switch (1X) and high efficiency (1.5X or 2X) charge pump device intended for fashion color LED lighting applications. To maximize power conversion efficiency, an internal sensing circuit monitors the voltage required on the constant current source output and sets the load switch and charge pump modes based on the input battery voltage and the current source output voltage. As the battery discharges over time, the AAT3129 charge pump is enabled when the current source output nears dropout. The charge pump initially starts in 1.5X mode. If the charge pump output drops enough for the current source output to The AAT3129 requires only four external components: two 1µF ceramic capacitors for the charge pump flying capacitors (C1 and C2), one 1µF ceramic input capacitor (CIN), and one 0.33µF to 1µF ceramic output capacitor (CP). 3129.2005.11.1.3 The color and brightness of an RGB color LED is maintained by PWM signals, which are programmed via the AS2Cwire interface. The control block generates three gate drive PWM signals for the N-channel MOSFET switches. Please refer to the interface description and timing in the following section for details. 9 AAT3129 High Efficiency 1X/1.5X/2X Charge Pump for RGB Color LED Applications pin has been held high for time TLAT. Address or data is differentiated by the number of EN/SET rising edges. Since the data registers are 4 bits each, the differentiating number of pulses is 24 or 16, so that address 1 is signified by 17 rising edges, address 2 by 18 rising edges, and so forth. Data is set to any number of rising edges between 1 and including 16. A typical write protocol is a burst of EN/SET rising edges, signifying a particular address, followed by a pause with EN/SET held high for the TLAT timeout period, a burst of rising edges signifying data, and a TLAT timeout for the data registers. Once an address is set, then multiple writes to the corresponding data register are allowed. Applications Information AS2Cwire Serial Interface The Advanced Simple Serial Control digital interface is used to set the color, overall intensity, and method of update for the R, G, and B channels. The intensity for each channel is set by dedicated 4-bit registers giving each channel 16 levels of brightness and resulting in 4096 possible color combinations. In addition to the three color registers, there is an intensity register and a mode register. The intensity register sets the overall intensity and provides 16 global brightness levels. The mode register toggles the method of update between two possibilities. Depending on the mode register setting, the AAT3129 will update the R, G, and B channels immediately or update them only when the intensity register is updated. When EN/SET is held low for an amount of time greater than TOFF, the AAT3129 enters into shutdown mode and draws less than 1µA from the supply. Address 1 is the default address on the first rising edge after the AAT3129 has been disabled. When shutdown mode is entered, the Address and Data registers are reset to 1. AS2Cwire relies on the number of rising edges of the EN/SET pin to address and load the registers. AS2Cwire latches data or address after the EN/SET AS2Cwire Serial Interface Timing Address Data THI TLO T LAT T LAT EN/SET 1 2 17 18 1 2... 1 Address n <= 16 2 G 1 R, B, T, M 1 n AS2Cwire Serial Interface Addressing 10 Address EN/SET Rising Edges Data Register Description 1 2 3 4 5 17 18 19 20 21 R G B T M Red Green Blue Intensity Mode 3129.2005.11.1.3 AAT3129 High Efficiency 1X/1.5X/2X Charge Pump for RGB Color LED Applications Color Registers R, G, and B Intensity Register T The individual color brightness is set using the three R, G, and B registers. The data register contents determine the on-time for each color channel during a PWM cycle. The first level is 0, or off, and is set with a single EN/SET rising edge. This setting eliminates a given color from the spectrum. The remaining 15 levels progressively increase the brightness for a particular color by increasing that channel’s on-time. Using the red channel as an example, the resulting on-time is The overall intensity level is set by the T register. Once a particular mixing of colors is set to produce the desired color, the overall intensity can be adjusted while keeping constant the ratio of colors to one another. The brightest level is set by programming the T register with 1 edge. Programming the T register with 16 edges produces the dimmest setting. The T register adjusts the overall intensity by controlling the PWM off-time. Under the dimmest setting, the off-time is the longest. The offtime that results from the data in the T register is on-time = (R - 1) · 128µs off-time = (T - 1) · 512µs where R is the data setting (from 1 to 16). The same applies to G and B. Diode Current Timing (R - 1) · 128µs Red ISRC 128µs (T - 1) · 512µs ISRC (G - 1) · 128µs Green ISRC 128µs (B - 1) · 128µs Blue Mode Register M The mode register determines the method of update for the R, G, and B channels. When the mode register is set to 1, the addressed color updates immediately. When the mode register is set to 2, the colors will update when the T register is written (synchronized updating). Under immediate updating, an addressed channel will update as soon as new data has latched for it. Under synchronized updating, the channels that have been assigned new data will not update until data for the T register latches. 3129.2005.11.1.3 ISRC 128µs By using synchronized updating, discrete changes in color can be achieved. Synchronized updating allows the intensity for all three colors to be updated simultaneously. All three color registers can be loaded with new data prior to the update. Then, upon loading the T register, all three colors will change to their new states together. This allows a user to transition from one mixed color to another without having to traverse intermediate colors. Under immediate updating color changes can only be achieved serially, or one color at a time. 11 AAT3129 High Efficiency 1X/1.5X/2X Charge Pump for RGB Color LED Applications Mode Register Settings - Address 5 M Setting 1 2 Action R, G, B, T Registers Latched Independently R, G, B Registers Synchronized to T Register Latch LED Current The resulting DC current for each of the R, G, and B channels depends on the overall system settings. Using the overall settings, the current for a particular channel is calculated as R-1 IR = ISRC · 4 · (T - 1) + (R - 1) + (G - 1) + (B - 1) + CHLS_ON G-1 IG = ISRC · 4 · (T - 1) + (R - 1) + (G - 1) + (B - 1) + CHLS_ON B-1 IB = ISRC · 4 · (T - 1) + (R - 1) + (G - 1) + (B - 1) + CHLS_ON where ISRC is the factory programmed current and CHLS_ON is the number of channels programmed to operate. Whenever a channel is programmed to Data = 1, that channel is programmed to off and must be removed from the CHLS_ON count. Capacitor Selection Careful selection of the four external capacitors CIN, C1, C2, and COUT is important because they will affect turn-on time, output ripple, and transient performance. Optimum performance will be obtained when low equivalent series resistance (ESR) ceramic capacitors are used. In general, low ESR may be defined as less than 100mΩ. For best overall performance, 1µF capacitors are recommended. Depending on ripple requirements, the input and output capacitor values can be increased or decreased accordingly. If lower ripple is desired, increase the capacitor value. The peak-to-peak ripple seen at the input or output increases or decreases with capacitor size. 12 Capacitor Characteristics Ceramic composition capacitors are highly recommended over all other types of capacitors for use with the AAT3129. Ceramic capacitors offer many advantages over their tantalum and aluminum electrolytic counterparts. A ceramic capacitor typically has very low ESR, is lowest cost, has a smaller PCB footprint, and is non-polarized. Low ESR ceramic capacitors help maximize charge pump transient response. Since ceramic capacitors are non-polarized, they are not prone to incorrect connection damage. Equivalent Series Resistance ESR is an important characteristic to consider when selecting a capacitor. ESR is a resistance internal to a capacitor that is caused by the leads, internal connections, size or area, material composition, and ambient temperature. Capacitor ESR is typically measured in milliohms for ceramic capacitors and can range to more than several ohms for tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitors. 3129.2005.11.1.3 AAT3129 High Efficiency 1X/1.5X/2X Charge Pump for RGB Color LED Applications Ceramic Capacitor Materials Layout Considerations Ceramic capacitors less than 0.1µF are typically made from NPO or C0G materials. NPO and C0G materials typically have tight tolerance and are stable over temperature. Larger capacitor values are typically composed of X7R, X5R, Z5U, or Y5V dielectric materials. Large ceramic capacitors, typically greater than 2.2µF, are often available in lowcost Y5V and Z5U dielectrics, but capacitors greater than 1µF are typically not required for AAT3129 applications. The AAT3129 is a high-performance device that operates with a high switching frequency. To ensure optimal device performance and accommodate the fast transients generated by the AAT3129 special attention should be given to the board layout. The recommended layout is illustrated in Figure 1. The traces connecting C1 and C2 experience fast current transients. As a result, the trace lengths for C1 and C2 should be minimized by placing the components as closely as possible to the IC. This will minimize path resistance and reduce ringing due to the inductance associated with trace length. For best IC performance, CIN and COUT are placed as closely as possible to the IN and CP pins and are connected to a solid ground. Capacitor area is another contributor to ESR. Capacitors that are physically large will have a lower ESR when compared to a smaller capacitor made from an equivalent material. These larger devices can improve circuit transient response when compared to an equal value capacitor in a smaller package size.
