IMP528 POWER MANAGEMENT Key Features High-Voltage EL Lamp Driver – 220 VPP Drive The IMP528 is an Electroluminescent (EL) lamp driver with the four EL lamp driving functions on-chip. These are the switch-mode power supply, its high-frequency oscillator, the high-voltage H-bridge lamp driver and its low-frequency oscillator. The IMP528 drives EL lamps of up to 50nF capacitance to high brightness; EL lamps with capacitances greater than 50nF can be driven, but will be lower in light output. The typical regulated output voltage that is applied to the EL lamp is 220V peak-topeak. The circuit requires few external components; a single inductor, single diode, two capacitors and two resistors. Two of these resistors set the frequency for two internal oscillators. Unlike other EL lamp drivers, the IMP528 does not require an external protection resistor in series with the EL lamp. The IMP528 operates over a 2.0V to 6.5V supply voltage range. A regulated, low-power source can supply the low quiescent current of the IMP528. The inductor may be driven from an independent, unregulated supply voltage in dual supply applications. An internal circuit shuts down the switching regulator when the lamp drive voltage reaches 220V peak-to-peak. This conserves power and extends battery life. The IMP528 is available in MicroSO and SO-8 packages and in die or wafer form.

IMP528 Pin Descriptions Pin Number Name Function 1 VDD 2 RSW-OSC Switch-mode resistor pin. Switching frequency is determined by an external resistor, RSW. 3 CS Boost converter storage capacitor. The voltage across the EL lamp is equal to twice the voltage at CS. 4 LX Connection to flyback inductance, L. 5 GND 6 VB EL lamp drive. The lamp is connected in a high-voltage bridge circuit with VB providing the complementary connection to VA. The peak-to-peak AC voltage across the EL lamp is thus two times VCS. 7 VA EL lamp drive. (See above) 8 REL-OSC Positive voltage supply for the IMP528. Inductor L may be connected here or to a separate unregulated supply. Ground pin. The EL lamp oscillator frequency setting pin. The oscillator frequency is controlled by external resistor REL. External Components External Component Description and Selection Guide Diode Catch diode. A fast reverse recovery diode, with BV > 150V, such as an FDLL400 (150V). Capacitor CS This is the high voltage capacitor that stores the inductive energy transferred through the catch diode. A capacitor with WV > 120V between 10nF and 100nF is recommended. Resistor R EL The EL lamp oscillator frequency setting resistor. This resistor, connected between the REL-OSC pin and VDD, provides an oscillator frequency inversely proportional to REL; as REL increases, the EL lamp frequency decreases along with the current drawn by the lamp. Lamp color is also determined by this frequency. A 2.7MΩ resistor between the REL-OSC pin and the VDD supply results in a lamp frequency around 250Hz. Resistor RSW Switching Oscillator frequency setting resistor. The switching oscillator resistor is connected between the RSW-OSC pin and the VDD supply. The switching frequency is inversely proportional to the resistor value, dropping as the resistance increases. Inductor L The inductor provides the voltage boost needed by means of inductive “flyback”. The internal MOSFET switch alternately opens and closes the ground connection for the inductor at the LX pin. When this internal switch opens, the inductor potential will forward-bias the catch diode and the current will pass through the storage capacitor CS, charging it to a high voltage. Smaller inductors are preferred to prevent saturation. As the value of the inductor increases (and the series DC resistance of the inductor decreases), the switching frequency set by RSW should be increased to prevent saturation. In general, smaller value inductors that can handle more current are more desirable when larger area EL lamps must be driven. © 2001 IMP, Inc.
