® RT8567A 6-CH 43V Constant Current LED Driver with PWM Dimming Control General Description Features The RT8567A is a high efficiency driver for white LEDs. It is designed for LCD panels that employ an array of LEDs as the lighting source. An integrated current mode Boost controller drives six strings in parallel and supports up to 12 WLEDs per string. The internal current sinks support a maximum of ±2% current mismatching for excellent brightness uniformity in each string of LEDs. To provide enough headroom for current sink operation, the Boost controller monitors the minimum voltage of the feedback pins and regulates an optimized output voltage for power efficiency. z Wide Input Voltage : 2.7V to 24V z High Output Voltage : Up to 43V z Channel Current Programmable : 5mA to 40mA z Channel Current Regulation with Accuracy ±3% and Matching ±2% z Dimming Controls : External PWM Input Up to 25kHz z Adjustable Switching Frequency : 500kHz to 2MHz z Built-In Soft-Start z Protections ` LED Strings Open Detection ` Current Limit Protection ` Programmable Over Voltage Protection ` Over Temperature Protection z 20-Lead WQFN Package z RoHS Compliant and Halogen Free The RT8567A has a wide input voltage range from 2.7V to 24V and can provide adjustable LED current from 5mA to 40mA.

An input capacitor at the VIN pin can reduce ripple voltage. It is recommended to use a ceramic 10μF or larger capacitance as the input capacitor. This IC provides an Under Voltage Lockout (UVLO) function to enhance the stability during startup. The UVLO threshold of the input rising voltage is set at 2.3V typically with a 0.2V hysteresis. Soft-Start The function of the soft-start is defined by two periods. The first period is capped at the peak current limit with the time decided by the ratio of VOUT and VIN. However, an external capacitor, VOUT, can also affect the time of charging. The second period is defined by the slowly ramping of the ILED current by the ISET voltage. Thus, the inrush current is limited by the Boost converter and current regulator. Compensation The control loop can be compensated by adjusting the external components connected to the COMP pin. The COMP pin is the output of the internal error amplifier. The compensation capacitors, C3 and C4, will adjust the integrator zero and pole respectively to maintain stability. Moreover, the resistor, R3, will adjust the frequency integrator gain for fast transient response. Setting and Regulation of LED current The LED current can be calculated by the following equation : 1020 ILED = RISET where, RISET is the resistor between the ISET pin and GND. This setting is the reference for the LED current at CH1 to CH6 and represents the sensed LED current for each string. The DC/DC converter regulates the LED current according to the setting. Brightness Control The RT8567A brightness dimming is determined by the signal on the PWM pin with a suggested PWM frequency range from 200Hz to 25kHz. Referring to the following curve, the minimum dimming duty can be as low as 1% for the frequency range from 200Hz to 1kHz. For the frequency range from 1kHz to 10kHz, the dimming duty is at most 5%. If the frequency is increased to 25kHz, the dimming duty will be up to 10%. LED Current vs. PWM Duty Cycle 20 16 LED Current (mA) The RT8567A is a current mode Boost converter capable of powering to 72 white LEDs with a programmable current for uniform intensity. The part integrates current sources, soft-start, and easy analog and digital dimming control. The protection block provides the circuitry for over temperature, over voltage and current limit protection features. 12 PWM = 200Hz PWM = 1kHz PWM = 10kHZ PWM = 25kHz 8 4 0 0 20 40 60 80 100 PWM Duty Cycle (%) Figure 1 LED Connection Over Voltage Protection The RT8567A equips 6-CH LED drivers with each channel supporting up to 12 LEDs. The 6 LED strings are connected from VOUT to pin 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, and 12 respectively. If one of the LED channels is not used, the unused LED pin should be opened directly. The RT8567A equips an Over Voltage Protection (OVP) function. When the voltage at the OVP pin reaches a threshold of approximately 1.2V, the MOSFET driver turns off. The MOSFET driver turns on again once the voltage at OVP drops below the threshold voltage. Thus, the Copyright © 2012 Richtek Technology Corporation.

This voltage level can be calculated by the following equation : R VOUT, OVP = VOVP × (1+ OVP2 ) ROVP1 the entire input voltage range when the L1 inductor value is less than this value L. With an inductance greater than L, the converter operates in continuous mode at the minimum input voltage and may be discontinuous at higher voltages. where ROVP1 and ROVP2 are the resistors in the voltage divider connected to the OVP pin. If at least one string is in normal operation, the controller will automatically ignore the open strings and continue to regulate the current for the string(s) in normal operation. The selected inductor must be selected with saturation current rating greater than the peak current provided by the following equation : V ×I V − VIN V ×T IPEAK = ( OUT OUT ) + ( IN ) × ( OUT ) η x VIN 2×L VOUT Current Limit Protection Diode Selection The RT8567A can limit the peak current to achieve over current protection. The RT8567A senses the inductor current through LX pin in the ON period. The duty cycle depends on the current sense signal summed with the internal slope compensation and compared to the COMP signal. The internal N-MOSFET will be turned off when the current signal is larger than the COMP signal. In the OFF period, the inductor current will descend. The internal MOSFET is turned on by the oscillator in the next starting cycle. Schottky diode is a good choice for any asynchronous Boost converter due to its small forward voltage and fast switching Speed. However, when selecting a Schottky diode, important parameters such as power dissipation, reverse voltage rating and pulsating peak current must all be taken into consideration. Choose a suitable diode with reverse voltage rating greater than the maximum output voltage. Over Temperature Protection The RT8567A has an over temperature protection (OTP) function to prevent excessive power dissipation from overheating the device. The OTP will shut down switching operation when the junction temperature exceeds 150°C. Inductor Selection The value of the output inductor (L), where the transition from discontinuous to continuous mode occurs is approximated by the following equation : L= Capacitor Selection The input capacitor reduces current spikes from the input supply and minimizes noise injection to the converter. For most applications, a 10μF ceramic capacitor is sufficient. A value higher or lower may be used depending on the noise level from the input supply and the input current to the converter. It is recommended to choose a ceramic capacitor based on the output voltage ripple requirements. The minimum value of the output capacitor COUT, can be calulated by the following equation : COUT = (VOUT − VIN ) × IOUT η × VRIPPLE × VOUT × f (VOUT − VIN ) × VIN2 2 × IOUT × f × VOUT 2 where, VOUT = maximum output voltage. VIN = minimum input voltage. f = operating frequency. IOUT = sum of current from all LED strings. η is the efficiency of the power converter.

DS8567A-00 April 2012 Thermal Considerations For continuous operation, do not exceed absolute maximum junction temperature. The maximum power dissipation depends on the thermal resistance of the IC package, PCB layout, rate of surrounding airflow, and difference between junction and ambient temperature. The maximum power dissipation can be calculated by the following formula : PD(MAX) = (TJ(MAX) − TA) / θJA is a registered trademark of Richtek Technology Corporation. www.richtek.com 11 RT8567A where TJ(MAX) is the maximum junction temperature, TA is the ambient temperature, and θJA is the junction to ambient thermal resistance. For recommended operating condition specifications, the maximum junction temperature is 125°C. The junction to ambient thermal resistance, θJA, is layout dependent. For WQFN-20L 3x3 packages, the thermal resistance, θJA, is 68°C/W on a standard JEDEC 51-7 four-layer thermal test board. The maximum power dissipation at TA = 25°C can be calculated by the following formula : PD(MAX) = (125°C − 25°C) / (68°C/W) = 1.471W for WQFN-20L 3x3 package PCB layout is very important for designing switching power converter circuits. The following layout guides should be strictly followed for best performance of the RT8567A. ` The power components L1, D1, CIN, COUT must be placed as close to the IC as possible to reduce current loop. The PCB trace between power components must be as short and wide as possible. ` Place L1 and D1 as close to the LX pin as possible. The trace should be as short and wide as possible. ` The compensation circuit should be kept away from the power loops and shielded with a ground trace to prevent any noise coupling.
