During the operation, the LED current can be controlled using the 1-wire digital interface (Easyscale™ protocol) through the CTRL pin. Alternatively, a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal can be applied to the CTRL pin through which the duty cycle determines the feedback reference voltage. In either digital or PWM mode, the TPS61158 does not burst the LED current; therefore, it does not generate audible noises on the output capacitor. For maximum protection, the device features integrated open LED protection that disables the TPS61158 to prevent the output voltage from exceeding the IC's absolute maximum voltage ratings during open LED conditions.

The device is ideal for driving white LED in series. The serial LED connection provides even illumination by sourcing the same output current through all LEDs, eliminating the need for expensive factory calibration. The device integrates a 30V/0.6A low side switch MOSFET and a 30V power diode, and operates in pulse width modulation (PWM) with 750 kHz fixed switching frequency. For operation see the block diagram. The duty cycle of the converter is set by the error amplifier output and the current signal applied to the PWM control comparator. The control architecture is based on traditional current-mode control; therefore, slope compensation is added to the current signal to allow stable operation for duty cycles larger than 50%. The feedback loop regulates the FB pin to a low reference voltage (200mV typical), reducing the power dissipation in the current sense resistor. SOFT START-UP Soft-start circuitry is integrated into the IC to avoid a high inrush current during start-up. After the device is enabled, the voltage at FB pin ramps up to the reference voltage in 32 steps with each step taking 341μs. This ensures that the output voltage rises slowly to reduce the input current. Additionally, during the start up process, the current limit of the switch is set to half of the normal current limit spec. During this period, the input current is kept below 360mA (typical). See the start-up waveform of a typical example. SHUTDOWN The TPS61158 enters shutdown mode when the CTRL voltage is logic low for more than 3.5ms. During shutdown, the input supply current for the device is less than 1μA (max). Although the internal FET does not switch in shutdown mode, there is still a DC current path between the input and the LEDs through the inductor and the power diode. The minimum forward voltage of the LED array must exceed the maximum input voltage to ensure that the LEDs remain off in shutdown. In the typical application with two or more LEDs, the forward voltage is large enough to reverse bias the diode and keep leakage current low. CURRENT PROGRAM The FB voltage is regulated by a low 0.2V reference voltage. The LED current is programmed externally using a current-sense resistor RFB in series with the LED string. The value of the RFB is calculated using Equation 1: V RFB = FB ILED (1) Where: RFB = current sense resistor at FB pin VFB = 200mV (regulated voltage of FB pin) ILED = full-scale output current of LEDs The output current tolerance depends on the FB voltage accuracy and the current sensor resistor accuracy. LED BRIGHTNESS DIMMING MODE SELECTION The CTRL pin is used for the control input for both dimming modes, PWM dimming and 1 wire dimming. The dimming mode for the TPS61158 is selected each time the device is enabled. The default dimming mode is PWM dimming. To enter the 1 wire mode, the following digital pattern on the CTRL pin must be recognized by the IC every time the IC starts from the shutdown mode. 1. Pull CTRL pin high to enable the TPS61158, and to start the 1 wire detection window. 2. After the EasyScale detection delay (tes_delay, 100μs) expires, drive CTRL low for more than the EasyScale detection time (tes_detect, 450μs). 3. The CTRL pin has to be low for more than EasyScale detection time before the EasyScale detection window (tes_win, 3.5ms) expires. EasyScale detection window starts from the first CTRL pin low to high transition. The IC immediately enters the 1 wire mode once the above 3 conditions are met. The EasyScale communication can start before the detection window expires. Once the dimming mode is programmed, it can not be changed without another start up. This means the IC needs to be shutdown by pulling the CTRL low for 3.5ms and restarts. See the Dimming Mode Detection and Soft Start (Figure 16) for a graphical explanation.

Dimming Mode Detection and Soft Start PWM BRIGHTNESS DIMMING When the CTRL pin is constantly high, the FB voltage is regulated to 200mV typically. However, the CTRL pin allows a PWM signal to reduce this regulation voltage; therefore, it achieves LED brightness dimming. The relationship between the duty cycle and FB voltage is given by Equation 2. VFB = Duty × 200 mV (2) Where: Duty = duty cycle of the PWM signal 200 mV = internal reference voltage As shown in Figure 17, the IC chops up the internal 200mV reference voltage at the duty cycle of the PWM signal. The pulse signal is then filtered by an internal low pass filter. The output of the filter is connected to the error amplifier as the reference voltage for the FB pin regulation. Therefore, although a PWM signal is used for brightness dimming, only the WLED DC current is modulated, which is often referred as analog dimming. This eliminates the audible noise which often occurs when the LED current is pulsed in replica of the frequency and duty cycle of PWM control. Unlike other scheme which filters the PWM signal for analog dimming, TPS61158 regulation voltage is independent of the PWM logic voltage level which often has large variations. For optimum performance, use the PWM dimming frequency in the range of 20kHz to 100kHz. Since the CTRL pin is logic only pin, adding an external RC filter applied to the pin does not work. The minimum dimming duty cycle the IC can support is 1% within the PWM dimming frequency range 20kHz~100kHz. 12 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links :TPS61158 TPS61158 www.ti.com SLVSBR3 – MAY 2013 VBG 200mV CTRL Error Amplifer EA output FB Figure 17. Block Diagram of Programmable FB Voltage Using PWM Signal DIGITAL 1 WIRE BRIGHTNESS DIMMING The CTRL pin features a simple digital interface to allow digital brightness control. The digital dimming can save the processor power and battery life as it does not require a PWM signal all the time, and the processor can enter idle mode if available. The TPS61158 adopts the EasyScale™ protocol for the digital dimming, which can program the FB voltage to any of the 32 steps with single command. The step increment increases with the voltage to produce pseudo logarithmic curve for the brightness step. See the Table 1 for the FB pin voltage steps. The default step is full scale when the device is first enabled (VFB = 200mV). The programmed reference voltage is stored in an internal register. A power reset clears the register value and reset it to default. EasyScale™: 1 WIRE DIGITAL DIMMING EasyScale is a simple but flexible one pin interface to configure the FB voltage. The interface is based on a master-slave structure, where the master is typically a microcontroller or application processor. Figure 18 and Table 2 give an overview of the protocol. The protocol consists of a device specific address byte and a data byte. The device specific address byte is fixed to 58 hex. The data byte consists of five bits for information, two address bits ("00"), and the RFA bit. The RFA bit set to high indicates the Request for Acknowledge condition. The Acknowledge condition is only applied if the protocol was received correctly. The advantage of EasyScale compared with other one pin interfaces is that its bit detection is in a large extent independent from the bit transmission rate. It can automatically detect bit rates between 1.1kBit/sec and up to 100kBit/sec.

EasyScale™— Bit Coding All bits are transmitted MSB first and LSB last. Figure 19 shows the protocol without acknowledge request (Bit RFA = 0), Figure 20 with acknowledge (Bit RFA = 1) request. Prior to both bytes, device address byte and data byte, a start condition must be applied. For this, the CTRL pin must be pulled high for at least tstart (3.5μs) before the bit transmission starts with the falling edge. If the CTRL pin is already at high level, no start condition is needed prior to the device address byte. The transmission of each byte is closed with an End of Stream condition for at least tEOS (3.5μs). The bit detection is based on a Logic Detection scheme, where the criterion is the relation between tLOW and tHIGH (refer to Figure 21). It can be simplified to: • Low Bit (Logic 0): tLOW ≥ 2 x tHIGH • High Bit (Logic 1): tHIGH ≥ 2 x tLOW The bit detection starts with a falling edge on the CTRL pin and ends with the next falling edge. Depending on the relation between tHIGH and tLOW, the logic 0 or 1 is detected. The acknowledge condition is only applied if: • Acknowledge is requested by setting RFA bit to 1. • The transmitted device address matches with the device address of the IC • Device address byte and data byte are received correctly. If above conditions are met, after tvalACK (3.5μs) delay from the moment when the last falling edge of the protocol is detected, an internal ACKN-MOSFET is turned on to pull the CTRL pin low for the time tACKN (900μs maximum), then the Acknowledge condition is valid. During the tvalACK delay, the master controller keeps the line low; after the delay, it should release the line by outputting high impedance and then detect the acknowledge condition. If it reads back a logic 0, it means the IC has received the command correctly. The CTRL pin can be used again by the master when the acknowledge condition ends after tACKN time. Note that the acknowledge condition can only be requested in case the master device has an open drain output. For a push-pull output stage, the use a series resistor in the CTRL line to limit the current to 500μA is recommended to for such cases as: • an accidentally requested acknowledge, or • to protect the internal ACKN-MOSFET. UNDERVOLTAGE LOCKOUT An undervoltage lockout prevents operation of the device at input voltages below typical 2.2V. When the input voltage is below the undervoltage threshold, the device is shutdown and the internal switch FET is turned off. If the input voltage rises by undervoltage lockout hysteresis, the IC restarts. OPEN LED PROTECTION Open LED protection circuitry prevents IC damage as the result of white LED disconnection. The TPS61158 monitors the voltages at the VOUT pin and FB pin. The circuitry turns off the switch FET and shuts down the IC completely if both of the following two conditions are met: 1) the VOUT voltage reaches OVP threshold (28.2V typical), 2) FB voltage is lower than half of its regulation voltage. This means the LED string is open or the FB pin is short to ground. As a result, the output voltage falls to the level of the input supply. The device remains in shutdown mode until it is enabled by pulling down the CTRL pin logic low for at least 3.5ms and then pulling it high. 16 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links :TPS61158 TPS61158 www.ti.com SLVSBR3 – MAY 2013 THERMAL SHUTDOWN An internal thermal shutdown turns off the device when the typical junction temperature of 160°C is exceeded.

Maximum output power is less than maximum input power due to power conversion losses. Therefore, the current limit setting, input voltage, output voltage and efficiency can all change maximum current output. The current limit clamps the peak inductor current; therefore, the ripple has to be subtracted to derive maximum DC current. The ripple current is a function of switching frequency, inductor value and duty cycle. The following equations take into account of all the above factors for maximum output current calculation. 1 IP = 1 1 L ´ FS ´ ( ) + VOUT + VF - VIN VIN (3) Where IP = inductor peak to peak ripple L = inductor value FS = switching frequency VOUT = output voltage of the boost converter. It is equal to the sum of VFB and the voltage drop across LEDs. VF = forward voltage of internal power diode. 0.75V typical V ´ (I - I / 2) ´ h I OUT _ max = IN LIM P VOUT (4) Where IOUT_max = maximum output current of the boost converter ILIM = over current limit η = boost efficiency (85%, typical) To calculate the maximum output current in the worst case, use the minimum input voltage, maximum output voltage and maximum forward voltage of internal power diode (1V). In order to leave enough design margin, the minimum current limit value 0.5A, the minimum switching frequency 600kHz, the inductor value with 30% tolerance, and a low power conversion efficiency, such as 80% or lower are recommended for the calculation. For instance, when minimum VIN is 3.0V, 8 LEDs output equivalent to VOUT is 26V, the inductor is 22uH, then the maximum output current is 33mA in the worst case. INDUCTOR SELECTION The selection of the inductor affects steady state operation as well as transient behavior, loop stability and the power conversion efficiency. These factors make it the most important component in power regulator design. There are three important inductor specifications, inductor value, DC resistance and saturation current. Considering inductor value alone is not enough. The inductor value determines the inductor ripple current. Choose an inductor that can handle the necessary peak current without saturating, according to half of the peakto-peak ripple current given by Equation 3, plus the inductor DC current given by: V ´I Iin _ DC = OUT OUT VIN ´ h (5) Inductor values can have ±20% or even ±30% tolerance with no current bias. When the inductor current approaches saturation level, its inductance can decrease 20% to 35% from the 0A value depending on how the inductor vendor defines saturation. When selecting an inductor, please make sure its rated current, especially the saturation current, is larger than its peak current during the operation. Using an inductor with a smaller inductance value causes larger current ripple. This reduces the boost converter’s maximum output current, causes large input voltage ripple and reduces efficiency. Large inductance value provides much more output current and higher conversion efficiency. For these reasons, a 10μH to 22μH inductor value range is recommended. A 22μH inductor optimizes the efficiency for most application while maintaining low inductor peak to peak ripple. Table 3 lists the recommended inductors for TPS61158. TPS61158 has built-in slope compensation to avoid sub-harmonic oscillation associated with current mode control. If the inductor value is lower than 10μH, the slope compensation may not be adequate, and the loop can be unstable. Therefore, customers need to verify the inductor in their application if it is different from the recommended values. 18 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links :TPS61158 TPS61158 www.ti.com SLVSBR3 – MAY 2013 Table 3.

This ripple voltage is related to the capacitor’s capacitance and its equivalent series resistance (ESR). Assuming a capacitor with zero ESR, the minimum capacitance needed for a given ripple can be calculated by - VIN ) ´ IOUT (V COUT = OUT VOUT ´ FS ´ Vripple (6) Where: Vripple = peak-to-peak output ripple. The additional output ripple component caused by ESR is calculated using: Vripple_ESR = IOUT × RESR (7) Due to its low ESR, Vripple_ESR can be neglected for ceramic capacitors, but must be considered if tantalum or electrolytic capacitors are used. Care must be taken when evaluating a ceramic capacitor’s derating under DC bias, aging and AC signal. The DC bias can significantly reduce capacitance. Ceramic capacitors can lose as much as 50% of its capacitance at its rated voltage. Therefore, leave the margin on the voltage rating to ensure adequate capacitance at the required output voltage. The capacitor in the range of 1μF to 10μF is recommended for input side. The output requires a capacitor in the range of 0.47μF to 2.2μF. The output capacitor affects the loop stability of the boost regulator. If the output capacitor is below the range, the boost regulator can potentially become unstable. The popular vendors for high value ceramic capacitors are: TDK (http://www.component.tdk.com/components.php) Murata (http://www.murata.com/cap/index.html) LAYOUT CONSIDERATION As for all switching power supplies, especially those high frequency and high current ones, layout is an important design step. If layout is not carefully done, the regulator could suffer from instability as well as noise problems. Therefore, use wide and short traces for high current paths. The input capacitor Cin needs to be close to the VIN pin and GND pin in order to reduce the input ripple seen by the IC. If possible, choose higher capacitance value for it. If the ripple seen at VIN pin is so large that it affects the boost loop stability or internal circuits operation, R1 and C1 is recommended to compose a filter to decouple the noise (refer to Figure 23). The SW pin carries high current with fast rising and falling edges. Therefore, the connection between the SW pin to the inductor should be kept as short and wide as possible. The output capacitor Cout should be put close to VOUT pin. It is also beneficial to have the ground of Cout close to the GND pin since there is large ground return current flowing between them. FB resistor should be put close to FB pin. When laying out signal grounds, it is recommended to use short traces separated from power ground traces, and connect them together at a single point close to the GND pin.
