PC112/PC113 General Description PC112/PC113 is a compact, high-efficiency step-up DC-DC converter which drives 2-6 series white LEDs with constant current from 3V to 5V. Extremely low shutdown power supply current ensures the high efficiency of battery system. The PC113 works at 500KHz, allowing the application of tiny external components. Low feedback voltage and hence minimal input current from the battery extends battery life. Built-in N-channel power switches optimize the layout area of PCB. Since PC112/PC113 drives series LEDs, it regulates the light intensity uniformly. With a single external resistor or PWM signal, users can easily set the LED current and LED brightness. While output loading is open, likes the case of LEDs failure, the duty cycle of the DC-DC converter will increase rapidly, causing high output voltage to damage the circuit. To avoid this situation, a Zener diode should be connected to the DC-DC converter’s output to clamp the output voltage in most applications. However, PC113 has built-in the over-voltage protection circuit to protect the output circuit and thus eliminates the need of the external Zener diode. PC112/PC113 is also characterized of the soft-start feature, which limits the inrush current. It is available in Thin-SOT type package. Features 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

NOTE2 : To chose D1(Schottky diode), it must has fast switch characteristics and low forward voltage. We recommend the MBR0520in this application. NOTE3 : The ripple of input voltage could be minimized with C1. Thus, a large value of capacitor C1 is suggested. With the application of a RC-filter (R1 and C2) to VDD pin, the stability of circuit is enhanced. The ripple of output voltage also could be improved with C3. In most designs, the low ESR (equivalent series resistance) capacitors are desirable, like multi-layer capacitor. A 1uF to 2.2uF output capacitor is sufficient for most applications.

PC112/PC113 General Description Bias current setting The PC112/PC113 is a DC/DC converter which provides a regulated current output from a VDD input of DC 2.8V to 5.0V. Regulating the LED current can be achieved by setting the resistor of FB pin to ground. So the value of the current setting resistor R2 could be set by: R2= 0.095 I LED (Ω) Brightness control The brightness control can be achieved by applying a PWM control signal to EN pin or by varying the current setting resistor R2, shown as follows. PC113 PC113 EN PC113 FB 4 5 PWM RMIN FB 4 RINCR PWM To LEDs RA RB R2 VADJ Fig. 3 Fig. 4 Fig. 5 We could apply a digital PWM signal (100Hz~3KHz) to EN pin (Fig. 3) to generate a LED current waveform identical to that of the PWM signal waveform. The average output LED current is calculated: 0.095 ILED = R 2 x Duty of PWM (A) Another control method is to vary the value of the current setting resistor (Fig. 4). ILED = RMIN × RINCR 0.095 which R2 = RMIN + RINCR , PWM is High R2 (A) A DAC can also be applied for brightness control, which is shown in Fig. 5. If VADJ -8 - Version:A.001 點晶科技股份有限公司 SILICON TOUCH TECHNOLOGY INC. PC112/PC113 (output of a DAC or Ambient Light Sensor) increases, the output voltage will decrease. For example, RA=6.2KΩ, RB=82KΩ, VADJ = 4V, VFB1 will set to 0.05V, so the LED’s current will be half . Open circuit protection (PC113 only) When the LEDs are disconnected from the circuit or the LEDs fail, PC113 will switch to maximum duty cycle. This situation results in a high output voltage and may cause the LX pin voltage to exceed its maximum rating of 24V and thus damages output circuit. Normally, a Zener diode is applied to clamp the high voltage; however, PC113 has built-in the over-voltage protection circuit, and thus no external component is required. Recommended PCB layout 1. C2 is placed as close to PC112/113 as possible. 2. Minimize the length and area of all traces connecting to LX pin. 3. The power path : VDD L1 LX D1 C3 should be kept as short as possible to avoid EMI. 4. Fig. 6 shows the exemplary test board layout.
