It is a 1.3 MHz PWM step-up switching regulator and 2X and 1X charge pump. The current feedback control of the step-up provides excellent line transient response, making it particularly Table 1. suitable for battery-powered applications. It is possible to select the value of the current flowing through the power white LED using two external resistors to choose the current value in torch mode or flash mode. Single-wire pulse dimming control and shutdown of the white LEDs for backlighting is obtained through two digital control pins: DM1 and DM2. The flash is driven by two logic pins: TF, to enable the flash function, and SEL to select torch or flash mode. Other features include over-voltage and over-temperature protection, and inductor current limitation. The high efficiency of the STLD20CP1 makes it suitable for hand-held instruments and particularly ideal in mobile phones. The STLD20CP1 is available in a small, thin lowprofile QFN16 (3x3 mm) package.

Guaranteed by design. 8/19 STLD20CP1 Application information 6 Application information 6.1 Step-up The STLD20CP1 is a PWM controller working at a 1.3 MHz frequency, designed to function in discontinuous mode. The LED current regulation for the backlighting is achieved by connecting the FB_SU terminal at the top end of the external RLED resistance. ILED = VFB_SU/RLED 6.2 Shutdown and brightness control The shutdown and brightness control functions are achieved by using the digital control pins DM1 and DM2. There are also other modes that can be used to perform dimming control on white LEDs. The first is to use the truth table selection mode step-up that shows the behavior using a preselected digital dimming control. The second is a PWM dimming control mode, which is implemented by keeping a DMx pin at a low or high value and the other DMx forcing a PWM digital signal up to 50 kHz with a minimum duty cycle 5%. A 5% duty cycle corresponds to the minimum current and a 100% duty cycle corresponds to full current. In cases where DM2 is a high value and DM1 is forced with a PWM digital (Figure 4), the dimming control varies from 5% to 100% of current. If DM2 is held low and the PWM signal is applied on DM1 (Figure 5), the dimming control varies from 0 up to 60% of current. Figure 4. PWM dimming method from 5% to 100% 9/19 Application information Figure 5. STLD20CP1 PWM dimming method from 0% to 60% Likewise, by forcing DM1 low and applying a PWM signal on pin DM2, is it possible to achieve dimming from 0 to 5% (Figure 6), while putting DM1 high and the PWM signal on DM2, the device performs dimming from 60% to 100% (Figure 7). Figure 6. PWM dimming method from 0% to 5% Figure 7. PWM dimming method from 60% to 100% The third way is to utilize single-wire pulse dimming by connecting DM1 and DM2 together. This feature allows the selection of additional steps of LED current through a digital signal coming from the microprocessor, reducing the number of control traces on the PCB. When the DM1 and DM2 are simultaneously high, the high current value is selected on the LEDs, and each additional pulse reduces the LED current by 10%. After the tenth pulse, the LED 10/19 STLD20CP1 Application information current reaches 5%. The eleventh pulse sets the LED current back to ILED max. Figure 8 shows a timing diagram for single-wire pulse dimming. Analog dimming can be achieved by connecting a resistor network to the FB pin (Figure 9). 6.3 Peak inductor current limitation and soft start function An integrated current sensor will sense the peak drain current of the switch P_SW in order to keep the inductor current below its saturation level. Since the peak drain current exceeds the fixed limit IPK by the drain current reference, the comparator turns off the switch P_SW. During start up, this peak drain current limitation behaves inherently as a soft-start function. 6.4 Charge pump The charge pump includes soft-start circuitry to limit inrush current at turn-on or when the device changes operation from x1 to x2. During the soft-start time, the output current is set to 10% of the maximum set by RTH or RFL (depending on the state of the SEL pin), until VFB_CP reaches regulation. This function is implemented to avoid battery stress. At start-up, the pin OUT_CP goes to VIN, working in an x1 condition. Following this phase, if VFB_CP >150 mV, the LED current is regulated and the device continues to operate in a 1x condition. Otherwise, if VFB_CP <150 mV, the device changes to a 2x operating condition bringing VOUT_CP>VIN. allowing LED current regulation. The device will change back to 1x mode when the input voltage rises above VOUT_CP by approximately 50 mV. 6.5 Current on power LED (flash) The current that level flowing through the power LED in both modes (torch and flash) can be selected using the following formula: IFLASH = K (0.6/RFL), ITORCH = K (0.6/RTH) where K is a value of approximately 1220. Figure 10 shows the relationship between the TF signal control and flash duration time for one camera shot, while Figure 11 represents multiple shots. 6.6 Over-voltage and short-circuit protection In case of open-circuit failure of the power LED, the output voltage is limited to about 5.5 V by gating the charge pump on/off. If the power LED experiences a short-circuit or if the output charge pump is grounded, the charge pump is turned off. 6.7 Start-up procedure Before inserting the driving preferences with the digital pins it is mandatory to turn on the device with correct supply voltage with all the digital pins set to GND. 11/19 Application information 6.8 STLD20CP1 Thermal shutdown The device includes a thermal limit circuit that shuts down the IC at approximately +180 °C, and return to operation after the IC cools by approximately 20 °C.
