APPLICATION INFORMATION
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The IS31BL3229 with a smart charge-pump circuit is a
parallel white-LED driver with eight matched 20mA
current outputs.
CHARGE PUMP
The built-in charge pump converter switches on
automatically to ensure constant current output when
the voltage of channel 1 (VD1) is below the threshold
voltage VTH (180mV).
The charge pump converter only needs three external
components: supply decoupling capacitor, output
bypass capacitor and flying capacitor.

The maximum current (IMAX) of each LED can be set by
the extra resister RSET follow the Equation (1) below.
I MAX  1.25 / RSET   1600
(1)
For example, in Figure 1, RSET = 100kΩ,
So, I MAX  1.25 / 100k   1600  20mA
FADE IN AND FADE OUT MODE
By floating the OPT pin the fade in and fade out mode
enable. When the EN pin is pulled high to enable the
IC, LED fade in. When the EN pin is pulled low at last
tOFF to shutdown the IC, LED fade out. Pulling OPT pin
low to disable this mode (Figure 6).
The recommended minimum RSET is 82kΩ, then the
maximum IMAX is 24mA.
The recommended maximum RSET is 110kΩ, then the
minimum IMAX is 18mA.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The LED intensity can be modulated by pulse count or
PWM signal.
Figure 6
FIFO Function
EN DIMMING MODE
TIMING CONTROL
The current level magnitude is controlled by Pulse
Count Control (PCC wire) serial interface. The
interface records rising edges of the EN pin and
decodes them into 32 different states. The 32 current
level settings available are indicated in Table 1. The
PWM pin should be pulled to high if modulated by EN
pin only.
The EN pin should be configured as the Figure 7. tLAT
is the latch time. High level should be at last tLAT to
active the pulse signal. tOFF is the shutdown time. EN
pin is pulled low at last tOFF the IC will be shutdown.
PWM SIGNAL DIMMING MODE
The PWM pin of the IS31BL3229 can accept a PWM
signal to implement LED dimming by changing the
PWM duty cycle. Recommended PWM frequency is in
the range of 100Hz ~ 50kHz.

THERMAL PROTECTION
The IS31BL3229 has a thermal protection circuit that
will shut down the chip if the die temperature rises
above the thermal limit until the temperature falls
down.
DESIGN NOTE
The decoupling capacitors should be placed close to
the VCC pin. A 0.1μF ceramic and an 1μF capacitors
are recommended. The flying capacitor should be
placed close to the CN and CP pins. The output
capacitor should be placed close to the OUT pin and
the traces of OUT pin connected to the capacitor
should be as possible as short and wide.
Trace width should be at least 0.75mm when the
current reaches 1A. Trace width should be at least
1.0mm for the power supply and the ground plane. The
thermal pad and the GND pin should connect directly
to a strong common ground plane for heat sinking.
