Charge-Pump LED Drivers
General Description
Features
The AAT3192 and AAT3193 are charge-pump
based, current-sink white LED drivers capable of
driving one to three LEDs up to 30mA, each. They
automatically switch between 1x mode and 2x
mode to maintain the highest efficiency and optimal LED current accuracy and matching.

•
•
The AAT3192/93 charge pump’s 1x mode (bypass
mode) has very low resistance allowing LED current regulation to be maintained with input supply
voltage approaching the LED forward voltage.
The AAT3192 and the AAT3193 are available in a
2x2mm 10-lead SC70JW-10 packages.

Functional Description
The AAT3192 and AAT3193 are low-cost chargepump solutions designed to drive up to three white
LEDs. The charge pump operates from a 2.7V to
5.5V power source and converts it to voltage levels
necessary to drive the LEDs. LED current is individually controlled through integrated current sinks
powered from the output of the charge pump. Low
1x charge-pump output resistance and low-drop
voltage current sinks allow the charge pump to stay
in 1x mode with an input voltage as low as 3.75V
and LED forward voltages as high as 3.5V. Once
in 2x mode, the charge pump monitors the input
supply voltage and automatically switches back to
1x mode when there is sufficient input voltage.
The AAT3192/93 requires only four external components: one 1µF ceramic capacitor for the charge
pump flying capacitors (CP), one 1µF ceramic input
capacitor (CIN), one 1µF ceramic output capacitor
(COUT) and a resistor (RSET) to set the maximum LED
current. The three constant current outputs of
3193.2007.05.1.0
DAC
RSET
AAT3193 (D1 to D3) can drive three individual LEDs
with a maximum current of 30mA each. AAT3192 can
drives two constant output sinks (D1 and D2) with up
to 30mA maximum current each. AnalogicTech's
S2Cwire serial Interface enables the AAT3192/93-1/
-2/-3 and changes the current sink magnitudes
through the EN/SET pin. The AAT3192/93-4 uses an
external PWM signal to enable the IC and control the
brightness of the LEDs.
Constant Current Control using RSET
The maximum current is programmed by an external
resistor at the RSET pin. Using a 14.3kΩ external
resistor at the RSET pin, the AAT3192/93-1/-2/-4
includes an integrated serial LED current control that
sets the full-scale LED current between 20mA and
0.63mA. For the AAT3192/93-3, a 10.7kΩ external
resistor at the RSET pin sets the fu ll-scale LED current between 20mA and 1.3mA. The full-scale LED
current can set higher or lower than 20mA; see Table
5. For maximum accuracy, a 1% tolerance resistor is
recommended.

S2Cwire Serial Interface
(AAT3192/93-1/-2/-3 only)
EN/SET held high for at least tLAT (500µs). The programmed current is then seen at the current sink
outputs. When EN/SET is held low for an amount
of time longer than tOFF (500µs), the AAT3192/93
enters into shutdown mode and draws less than
1µA from the input and the internal data register is
reset to zero.
The LED output current of AAT3192/93 is controlled by AnalogicTech's S2Cwire serial interface.
Since the LED current is programmable, no PWM
or additional control circuitry is needed to control
LED brightness. This feature greatly reduces the
burden on a microcontroller or system IC to manage LED or display brightness, allowing the user to
"set it and forget it." With its high-speed serial interface (1MHz data rate), the LED current can be
changed quickly and easily. Also the non-pulsating
LED current reduces system noise and improves
LED reliability. The S2Cwire interface relies on the
number of rising edges to the EN/SET pin to set the
register. A typical write protocol is a burst of
EN/SET rising edges, followed by a pause with
The AAT3192/93-1/2/3's serial interface reduces the
LED current on each rising pulse of the enable input.
If the AAT3192/93 is in shutdown, the first rising edge
of the EN/SET input turns on the LED driver to the
maximum current. Successive rising edges decrease
the LED current as shown in Table 1 and Figure 2 for
the AAT3192/93-1. For the AAT3192/93-2, Table 2
and Figure 3 illustrate an 8-step LED current control
profile. For the AAT3192/93-3, Table 3 and Figure 4
illustrate a 4-step LED current control profile.

PWM Control (AAT3192/93-4 only)
PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) is an industry standard technique of controlling LED brightness by
modulating the conduction duty cycle of the LED
current. LED brightness is determined by the average value of the PWM signal multiplied by the LED’s
intensity where intensity is proportional to the LED
drive current. A PWM control signal can be applied
into the EN/PWM pin of the AAT3192/93-4. By
3193.2007.05.1.0
changing the duty cycle of the PWM signal from
100% (logic high) to 10%, LEDs sink current can be
programmed from 20mA to 2.4mA. To save power
when not used, AAT3192/93-4 can be shutdown by
holding the EN/PWM pin low for 1ms.
Lastly, Table 4 and Figure 5 illustrate the
AAT3192/93-4’s LED current control profile as a
function of a PWM control signal.

Dx Output Current (mA)
The AAT3192/93 is specifically intended for driving
white LEDs. However, the device design will allow
the AAT3192/93 to drive most types of LEDs with
forward voltage specifications ranging from 2.2V to
4.7V. LED applications may include mixed arrangements for display backlighting, keypad display, and
any other application needing a constant current
sink generated from a varying input voltage. Since
the D1 to D3 constant current sinks are matched
with negligible supply voltage dependence, the
constant current channels will be matched regardless of the specific LED forward voltage (VF) levels.

Device Switching Noise Performance
The AAT3192/93 operates at a fixed frequency of
approximately 1MHz to control noise and limit harmonics that can interfere with the RF operation of
mobile communication devices. Back-injected
noise appearing on the input pin of the charge
pump is 20mV peak-to peak, typically ten times
less than inductor-based DC/DC boost converter
white LED backlight solutions. The AAT3192/93
soft-start feature prevents noise transient effects

associated with inrush currents during start-up of
the charge pump circuit.
Each of these modes will yield different efficiency
values. Refer to the following two sections for explanations for each operational mode.
Shutdown
Since the current switches are the only power
returns for all loads, there is no leakage current
when all sink switches are disabled. To activate the
shutdown operation, the EN/SET input for the
AAT3192/93-1/2/3 should be strobed low for longer
than tOFF (500μs). For the 3192/93-4 PWM options,
shutdown operation is enabled when the EN/PWM
input is strobed low longer than 1ms.In this state,
the AAT3192/93 typically draws less than 1μA from
the input. Registers are reset to 0 in shutdown.
1X Mode Efficiency
The AAT3192/93 1X mode is operational at all
times and functions alone to enhance device power
conversion efficiency when VIN is higher than the
voltage across the load. When in 1X mode, voltage
conversion efficiency is defined as output power
divided by input power.
An expression for the ideal efficiency (η) in 1X
charge-pump mode can be expressed as:

The charge pump efficiency discussion in the following sections accounts only for efficiency of the
charge pump section itself. Due to the unique circuit
architecture and design of the AAT3192/93, it is very
difficult to measure efficiency in terms of a percent
value comparing input power over output power.
-or-
Since the AAT3192/93 outputs are pure constant
current sinks and typically drive individual loads, it
is difficult to measure the output voltage for a given
output to derive an overall output power measurement. For any given application, white LED forward
voltage levels can differ, yet the output drive current will be maintained as a constant.
The AAT3192/93 contains a charge pump which
will boost the input supply voltage in the event
where VIN is less than the voltage required to supply the output. The efficiency (η) can be simply
defined as a linear voltage regulator with an effective output voltage that is equal to one and two
times the input voltage. Efficiency (η) for an ideal
2X charge pump can typically be expressed as the
output power divided by the input power.
This makes quantifying output power a difficult task
when taken in the context of comparing to other
white LED driver circuit topologies. A better way to
quantify total device efficiency is to observe the total
input power to the device for a given LED current
drive level. The best white LED driver for a given
application should be based on trade-offs of size,
external component count, reliability, operating
range, and total energy usage...not just % efficiency.
The AAT3192/93 efficiency may be quantified under
very specific conditions and is dependent upon the
input voltage versus the output voltage across the
loads applied to outputs D1 through D3 (or D2 in the
case of the AAT3192) for a given constant current
setting. Depending on the combination of VIN and
voltages sensed at the current sinks, the device will
operate in load switch mode. When any one of the
voltages sensed at the current sinks nears dropout,
the device will operate in 2X charge pump mode.

In addition, with an ideal 2X charge pump, the output current may be expressed as 1/3 of the input

Due to internal switching losses and IC quiescent current consumption, the actual efficiency can be measured at 90%. Efficiency will decrease substantially as
load current drops below 1mA or when the voltage
level at VIN approaches the voltage level at VOUT.
Additional Applications
The current sinks of the AAT3192 and the AAT3193
can be combined to drive higher current levels
through a single LED. As an example, a single LED
can be driven at 60mA total by combining together
the D1-D3 outputs.

Capacitor Characteristics
Ceramic composition capacitors are highly recommended over all other types of capacitors for use with
the AAT3192/93. 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 maximizing charge pump transient response.
Since ceramic capacitors are non-polarized, they are
not prone to incorrect connection damage.

For lower-cost applications, the flying capacitor can
be removed. This will force AAT3192/93 to operate
in 1X mode. To maintain regulated LED current, the
input supply voltage has to be higher than the
charge-pump's dropout voltage in 1X mode.

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.

Capacitor Selection
Careful selection of the three external capacitors
CIN, CP, and COUT is important because they will
affect turn-on time, output ripple, and transient per14
formance. 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. A value of 1μF
for all four capacitors is a good starting point when
choosing capacitors. If the constant current sinks
are only programmed for light current levels, then
the capacitor size may be decreased.
Ceramic capacitors less than 0.1μF are typically
made from NPO or C0G materials. NPO and C0G
materials generally have tight tolerance and are very
stable over temperature. Larger capacitor values are
usually composed of X7R, X5R, Z5U, or Y5V dielectric materials. Large ceramic capacitors (i.e., larger
than 2.2μF) are often available in low cost Y5V and
Z5U dielectrics, but capacitors larger than 1μF are
not typically required for AAT3192/93 applications.
Capacitor area is another contributor to ESR.
Capacitors that are physically large will have a lower
ESR when compared to an equivalent material
smaller capacitor. These larger devices can improve
circuit transient response when compared to an
equal value capacitor in a smaller package size.
