The LTC ®3209-1/LTC3209-2 are highly integrated
multidisplay LED controllers. These parts contain a high
efficiency, low noise charge pump to provide power to
MAIN, CAM and AUX LED displays. The LTC3209-1/
LTC3209-2 require only four small ceramic capacitors
and one current set resistor to form a complete LED power
supply and current controller.
The maximum display currents are set by a single external
resistor. Current for each LED is controlled by a precision
internal current source. Dimming and On/Off for all displays is achieved via the I2C serial interface. 256 states are
available for the MAIN display. Sixteen states are available
for the CAM display and four states are available for the
AUX display.
The charge pump optimizes efficiency based on the
voltage across the LED current sources. The part powers
up in 1x mode and will automatically switch to boost mode
whenever any enabled MAIN or CAM LED current source
begins to enter dropout. The first dropout switches the
part into 1.5x mode and a subsequent dropout switches
the part into 2x mode. The part resets to 1x mode
whenever a data bit is updated via the I2C port. The parts
are available in a 4mm × 4mm 20-lead QFN package.

PI FU CTIO S (LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2)
CPO (Pin 1/Pin 1): Output of the Charge Pump Used to
Power LEDs. A 2.2µF X5R or X7R ceramic capacitor
should be connected to ground.
MAIN1-6 (Pins 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, LTC3209-1): Current
Source Outputs for the MAIN Display White LEDs. The
LEDs on the MAIN display can be set from 0mA to 28mA
in 256 steps via software control and internal 8-bit linear
DAC. Each output can be disabled externally by connecting
the output to CPO. Setting data in REGA to 0 disables all
MAIN outputs.
MAIN1-5 (Pins 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, LTC3209-2): Current Source
Outputs for the MAIN Display White LEDs. The LEDs on the
MAIN display can be set from 0mA to 28mA in 256 steps
via software control and internal 8-bit linear DAC. Each
output can be disabled externally by connecting the output
to CPO. Setting data in REGA to 0 disables all MAIN
outputs.
AUX (Pin 8/Pin 7): Current Source Output for the AUX
Display LED. The LED current source can be set from 0mA
to 13.75mA in 4 steps via software control and internal 2bit DAC. AUX does not have dropout sensing and cannot
be disabled by connecting to CPO. This pin can also be
used as an I2C controlled general purpose output.
VBAT2,1 (Pins 9, 18/Pins 8, 18): Supply Voltage for the Entire
Device. Two separate pins are used to isolate the charge
pump from the analog sections to reduce noise. Both pins
must be connected together externally and bypassed with
a single 2.2µF low ESR ceramic capacitor close to VBAT1.
VBAT2 may require a 0.1µF capacitor.
RREF (Pin 10/Pin 9): This pin controls the maximum amount
of LED current for all displays. The RREF voltage is 1.23V.
An external 24.3k resistor to ground sets the reference
currents for all display DACs and support circuits for nominal MAIN full-scale current of 28mA and total CAM full-scale
current of 400mA. The value for RREF is limited to a range
of 20k to 30k.
DVCC (Pin 11/Pin 10): Supply Voltage for All Digital I/O
Lines. This pin sets the logic reference level of the
LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2. Decouple DVCC to GND with a
0.1µF capacitor. A UVLO circuit on the DVCC pin forces all
registers to all 0s whenever DVCC is below the UVLO
threshold.
CAM1-2 (Pins 11, 12, LTC3209-2): Current Source

U
OPERATIO
The LTC3209-1 has 6 MAIN outputs, 1 CAM output and 1
AUX output. The LTC3209-2 has 5 MAIN outputs, 2 CAM
outputs and 1 AUX output.
Power Management
The LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 use a switched capacitor
charge pump to boost CPO to as much as 2 times the input
voltage up to 5.1V. The part starts up in 1x mode. In this
mode, VBAT is connected directly to CPO. This mode
provides maximum efficiency and minimum noise. The
LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 will remain in 1x mode until a
MAIN or CAM LED current source drops out. Dropout
occurs when a current source voltage becomes too low for
the programmed current to be supplied. When dropout is
detected, the LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 will switch into 1.5x
mode. The CPO voltage will then start to increase and will
attempt to reach 1.5x VBAT up to 4.6V. Any subsequent
dropout will cause the part to enter the 2x mode. The CPO
voltage will attempt to reach 2x VBAT up to 5.1V. The part
will be reset to 1x mode whenever a DAC data bit is updated
via the I2C port or on the falling edge of the CAMHL signal.
A 2-phase nonoverlapping clock activates the charge
pump switches. In the 2x mode the flying capacitors are
charged on alternate clock phases from VBAT to minimize
input current ripple and CPO voltage ripple. In 1.5x mode
the flying capacitors are charged in series during the first
clock phase and stacked in parallel on VBAT during the
second phase. This sequence of charging and discharging
the flying capacitors continues at a constant frequency of
850kHz.
The currents delivered by the LED current sources are
controlled by an associated DAC. Each DAC is programmed
via the I2C port.
Soft-Start
Initially, when the part is in shutdown, a weak switch
connects VBAT1 to CPO. This allows VBAT1 to slowly charge
the CPO output capacitor and prevent large charging
currents to occur.
The LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 also employs a soft-start
feature on its charge pump to prevent excessive inrush
current and supply droop when switching into the step-up
modes. The current available to the CPO pin is increased
linearly over a typical period of 125µs. Soft-start occurs at
the start of both 1.5x and 2x mode changes.
Charge Pump Strength
When the LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 operate in either 1.5x
mode or 2x mode, the charge pump can be modeled as a
Thevenin-equivalent circuit to determine the amount of
current available from the effective input voltage and
effective open-loop output resistance, ROL (Figure 1).
ROL is dependent on a number of factors including the
switching term, 1/(2fOSC • CFLY), internal switch resistances and the nonoverlap period of the switching circuit.
However, for a given ROL, the amount of current available
will be directly proportional to the advantage voltage of
1.5VBAT - CPO for 1.5x mode and 2VBAT - CPO for 2x mode.

OPERATIO
Consider the example of driving white LEDs from a 3.1V
supply. If the LED forward voltage is 3.8V and the current
sources require 100mV, the advantage voltage for 1.5x
mode is 3.1V • 1.5 – 3.8V – 0.1V or 750mV. Notice that if
the input voltage is raised to 3.2V, the advantage voltage
jumps to 900mV—a 20% improvement in available
strength.
From Figure 1, for 1.5x mode the available current is given

Shutdown occurs when all the current source data bits
have been written to zero or when DVCC is below the DVCC
UVLO threshold.
Although the LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 is designed to have
very low shutdown current, it will draw about 3µA from
VBAT when in shutdown. Internal logic ensures that the
LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 is in shutdown when DVCC is
grounded. Note, however that all of the logic signals that
are referenced to DVCC (SCL, SDA, CAMHL) will need to be
at DVCC or below (i.e., ground) to avoid violation of the
absolute maximum specifications on these pins.

Serial Port
Camera Current Sources
The microcontroller compatible I2C serial port provides all
LTC3209-1
of the command and control inputs for the LTC3209-1/
LTC3209-2. Data on the SDA input is loaded on the rising
edge of SCL. D7 is loaded first and D0 last. There are three
data registers and one address register. Once all address
bits have been clocked into the address register acknowledge occurs. After the data registers have been written a
load pulse is created after the stop bit. The load pulse
transfers all of the data held in the data registers to the DAC
registers. At this point the LED current will be changed to
the new settings. The serial port uses static logic registers
so there is no minimum speed at which it can be operated.
MAIN Current Sources
LTC3209-1
There are six MAIN current sources. These current sources
have an 8-bit linear DAC for current control. For RREF =
24.3k, the output current range is 0mA to 28mA in 256
steps.
The current sources are disabled when a block receives an
all zero data word. The supply current for that block is
reduced to zero. In addition unused LED outputs can be
connected to CPO to turn off the current source output and
reduce the operating current to typically 10µA.
LTC3209-2
There are five MAIN current sources. These current sources
have an 8-bit linear DAC for current control. For RREF =
24.3k, the output current range is 0mA to 28mA in 256
steps.
The current sources are disabled when a block receives an
all zero data word. The supply current for that block is
reduced to zero. In addition unused LED outputs can be
connected to CPO to turn off the current source output and
reduce the operating current to typically 10µA.
There is one CAM current source. This current source has
a 4-bit linear DAC for current control. The output current
range is 0mA to 400mA in 16 steps (RREF = 24.3k).
The current source is disabled when the block receives an
all zero data word. The supply current for the block is
reduced to zero. In addition, the LED output can be
connected to CPO to turn off the current source output and
reduce operating current to typically 10µA. This pin cannot
be allowed to float if unused since dropout will be erroneously detected.
LTC3209-2
There are two CAM current sources. These current sources
have a 4-bit linear DAC for current control. The output
current range of each current source is 0mA to 200mA in
16 steps (RREF = 24.3k).
The current sources are disabled when the block receives
an all zero data word. The supply current for the block is
reduced to zero. In addition unused LED outputs can be
connected to CPO to turn off the current source output and
reduce the operating current to typically 10µA. These pins
cannot be allowed to float if unused since dropout will be
erroneously detected.
Auxiliary Current Source
There is one AUX current source. This current source has
a 2-bit Linear DAC for current control. The output current
range is 0mA to 13.75mA in 4 steps (OFF, 33%, 67%,
100%). The AUX output does not have dropout detection
and cannot be disabled when connected to CPO.
The current source is disabled when the block receives an
all zero data word and the supply current for the block is
reduced to zero. This output can also be used as an I2C
controlled digital open-drain general purpose output.

OPERATIO
CAMHL
The CAMHL pin quickly selects the camera high register
for flash applications without reaccessing the I2C port.
When low the CAM current range will be controlled by the
camera low 4-bit register. When CAMHL is asserted high
the current range will be set by the camera high 4-bit
register. The dropout delay is reduced from 150ms to 2ms
when CAMHL is asserted high so that the charge pump
can quickly change modes if required. When CAMHL
is asserted from high to low the charge pump mode is reset
to 1x.
Thermal Protection
The LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 have built-in overtemperature
protection. At internal die temperatures of around 150°C
thermal shutdown will occur. This will disable all of the
current sources and charge pump until the die has cooled
by about 15°C. This thermal cycling will continue until the
fault has been corrected.
RREF Current Set Resistor
The current set resistor is connected between the RREF pin
and ground. This resistor sets the full-scale current for all
three displays (MAIN, CAM and AUX) according to the
following equations:
MAIN =
1.23V
• 550
RREF
CAM =
1.23V
• 7900
RREF
(LTC32009-1)
CAM =
1.23V
• 3950
RREF
(LTC3209-2)
AUX =
1.23V
• 272
RREF
A 24.3k, 1% resistor provides full-scale currents of 28mA
for the MAIN; 400mA (total) current for CAM and 13.75mA
for AUX current sources.
This input is protected against shorts to ground or
low value resistors <10k. When a fault is detected the
reference current amplifier is current limited. In addition
the current source outputs and charge pump are disabled.
Mode Switching
The LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 will automatically switch from
1x mode to 1.5x mode and subsequently to 2x mode
whenever a dropout condition is detected at an LED pin.
Dropout occurs when a current source voltage becomes
too low for the programmed current to be supplied. When
switching modes the mode change will not occur unless
dropout has existed for 150ms. This delay will allow the
LEDs to warm up and achieve the final LED forward voltage
value. The dropout delay can be reduced to 2ms by
programming the Drop2ms bit C2 in the REGC register or
when the CAMHL pin is switched high when controlling
the CAM LEDs.
The mode will automatically switch back to 1x whenever a
data bit is updated via the I2C port or when CAMHL
switches from high to low. If the part is forced into either
1.5x mode or 2x mode to operate as a fixed voltage power
supply over I2C, no mode switching will occur until an I2C
update is given.

I2C Interface
Bus Speed
The LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 communicates with a host
(master) using the standard I2C 2-wire interface. The
Timing Diagram (Figure 5) shows the timing relationship
of the signals on the bus. The two bus lines, SDA and SCL,
must be high when the bus is not in use. External pull-up
resistors or current sources, such as the LTC1694 SMBus
accelerator, are required on these lines.
The I2C port is designed to be operated at speeds of up to
400kHz. It has built-in timing delays to ensure correct
operation when addressed from an I2C compliant master
device. It also contains input filters designed to suppress
glitches should the bus become corrupted.
The LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 is a receive-only (slave)
device.

LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2
U
OPERATIO
START and STOP Conditions
Bus Write Operation
A bus-master signals the beginning of a communication to
a slave device by transmitting a START condition.
The master initiates communication with the LTC3209-1/
LTC3209-2 with a START condition and a 7-bit address
followed by the Write Bit R/W = 0. If the address matches
that of the LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2, the part returns an
Acknowledge. The master should then deliver the most
significant data byte. Again the LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2
acknowledges and cycle is repeated two more times for a
total of one address byte and three data bytes. Each data
byte is transferred to an internal holding latch upon the
return of an Acknowledge. After all three data bytes have
been transferred to the LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2, the
master may terminate the communication with a STOP
condition. Alternatively, a REPEAT-START condition can
be initiated by the master and another chip on the I2C bus
can be addressed. This cycle can continue indefinitely and
the LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 will remember the last input of
valid data that it received. Once all chips on the bus
have been addressed and sent valid data, a global STOP
condition can be sent and the LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 will
update all registers with the data that it had received.
A START condition is generated by transitioning SDA from
high to low while SCL is high. When the master has
finished communicating with the slave, it issues a STOP
condition by transitioning SDA from low to high while SCL
is high. The bus is then free for communication with
another I2C device.
Byte Format
Each byte sent to the LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 must be
8 bits long followed by an extra clock cycle for the
Acknowledge bit to be returned by the LTC3209-1/LTC32092. The data should be sent to the LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2
most significant bit (MSB) first.
Acknowledge
The Acknowledge signal is used for handshaking between
the master and the slave. An Acknowledge (active low)
generated by the slave (LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2) lets the
master know that the latest byte of information was
received. The Acknowledge related clock pulse is
generated by the master. The master releases the SDA
line (high) during the Acknowledge clock cycle. The
slave-receiver must pull down the SDA line during the
Acknowledge clock pulse so that it remains a stable low
during the high period of this clock pulse.
Slave Address
The LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 responds to only one 7-bit
address which has been factory programmed to 0011011.
The eighth bit of the address byte (R/W) must be 0 for the
LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 to recognize the address since it is
a write only device. This effectively forces the address to
be 8 bits long where the least significant bit of the address
is 0. If the correct seven bit address is given but the R/W
bit is 1, the LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 will not respond.
In certain circumstances the data on the I2C bus may
become corrupted. In these cases the LTC3209-1/
LTC3209-2 responds appropriately by preserving only the
last set of complete data that it has received. For example,
assume the LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 has been successfully
addressed and is receiving data when a STOP condition
mistakenly occurs. The LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 will ignore
this STOP condition and will not respond until a new
START condition, correct address, new set of data and
STOP condition are transmitted.
Likewise, if the LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 was previously
addressed and sent valid data but not updated with a
STOP, it will respond to any STOP that appears on the bus
with only one exception, independent of the number of
REPEAT-STARTs that have occurred. If a REPEAT-START
is given and the LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 successfully
acknowledges its address, it will not respond to a STOP
until all bytes of the new data have been received
and acknowledged.

APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
VBAT, CPO Capacitor Selection
The style and value of the capacitors used with the
LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 determine several important
parameters such as regulator control loop stability, output
ripple, charge pump strength and minimum start-up time.
To reduce noise and ripple, it is recommended that low
equivalent series resistance (ESR) ceramic capacitors are
used for both CVBAT and CCPO. Tantalum and aluminum
capacitors are not recommended due to high ESR.
The value of CCPO directly controls the amount of output
ripple for a given load current. Increasing the size of CCPO
will reduce output ripple at the expense of higher start-up
current. The peak-to-peak output ripple of the 1.5x mode
is approximately given by the expression:
VRIPPLE(P-P) =
IOUT
3fOSC • CCPO
value of CCPO controls the amount of output ripple, the
value of CVBAT controls the amount of ripple present at
the input pin (VBAT). The LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 input
current will be relatively constant while the charge pump
is either in the input charging phase or the output
charging phase but will drop to zero during the clock
nonoverlap times. Since the nonoverlap time is small
(~25ns), these missing “notches” will result in only a
small perturbation on the input power supply line. Note
that a higher ESR capacitor such as tantalum will have
higher input noise due to the higher ESR. Therefore,
ceramic capacitors are recommended for low ESR. Input
noise can be further reduced by powering the LTC32091/LTC3209-2 through a very small series inductor as
shown in Figure 6. A 10nH inductor will reject the fast
current notches, thereby presenting a nearly constant
current load to the input power supply. For economy, the
10nH inductor can be fabricated on the PC board with
about 1cm (0.4") of PC board trace.
Where fOSC is the LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 oscillator
frequency or typically 850kHz and CCPO is the output
storage capacitor.
VBAT
LTC3209-1
LTC3209-2
The output ripple in 2x mode is very small due to the fact
that load current is supplied on both cycles of the clock.
GND
320912 F06
Both style and value of the output capacitor can significantly affect the stability of the LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2. As
shown in the Block Diagram, the LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2
use a control loop to adjust the strength of the charge
pump to match the required output current. The error
signal of the loop is stored directly on the output capacitor.
The output capacitor also serves as the dominant pole for
the control loop. To prevent ringing or instability, it is
important for the output capacitor to maintain at least 1µF
of capacitance over all conditions.
In addition, excessive output capacitor ESR will tend to
degrade the loop stability. If the output capacitor has
160mΩ or more of ESR, the closed-loop frequency
response will cease to roll off in a simple one-pole fashion
and poor load transient response or instability may
occur. Multilayer ceramic chip capacitors typically have
exceptional ESR performance. MLCCs combined with a
tight board layout will result in very good stability. As the
Figure 6. 10nH Inductor Used for Input Noise Reduction

Flying Capacitor Selection
Warning: Polarized capacitors such as tantalum or
aluminum should never be used for the flying capacitors
since their voltage can reverse upon start-up of the
LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2. Ceramic capacitors should
always be used for the flying capacitors.
The flying capacitors control the strength of the charge
pump. In order to achieve the rated output current it is
necessary to have at least 1.6µF of capacitance for each of
the flying capacitors. Capacitors of different materials lose
their capacitance with higher temperature and voltage at
different rates. For example, a ceramic capacitor made of
X7R material will retain most of its capacitance from
–40°C to 85°C whereas a Z5U or Y5V style capacitor will

APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
lose considerable capacitance over that range. Z5U and
Y5V capacitors may also have a very poor voltage
coefficient causing them to lose 60% or more of their
capacitance when the rated voltage is applied. Therefore,
when comparing different capacitors, it is often more
appropriate to compare the amount of achievable
capacitance for a given case size rather than comparing
the specified capacitance value. For example, over rated
voltage and temperature conditions, a 1µF, 10V, Y5V
ceramic capacitor in a 0603 case may not provide any
more capacitance than a 0.22µF, 10V, X7R available in the
same case. The capacitor manufacturer’s data sheet
should be consulted to determine what value of capacitor
is needed to ensure minimum capacitances at all
temperatures and voltages.
The following guidelines should be followed when designing a PCB layout for the LTC3209.
Table 1 shows a list of ceramic capacitor manufacturers
and how to contact them:
• LED pads must be large and connected to other layers of
metal to ensure proper heat sinking.
• The Exposed Pad should be soldered to a large copper
plane that is connected to a solid, low impedance ground
plane using plated, through-hole vias for proper heat
sinking and noise protection.
• Input and output capacitors (C1 and C4) must be placed
close to the part.
• The flying capacitors (C2 and C3) must be placed close
to the part. The traces running from the pins to the
capacitor pads should be as wide as possible.
• VBAT, CPO traces must be made wide to minimize
inductance and handle the high currents.

The flying capacitor pins C1P, C2P, C1M and C2M will
have high edge rate waveforms. The large dv/dt on these
pins can couple energy capacitively to adjacent PCB runs.
Magnetic fields can also be generated if the flying capacitors are not close to the LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 (i.e., the
loop area is large). To decouple capacitive energy transfer,
a Faraday shield may be used. This is a grounded PCB
trace between the sensitive node and the LTC3209-1/
LTC3209-2 pins. For a high quality AC ground, it should be
returned to a solid ground plane that extends all the way to
the LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2.

Layout Considerations and Noise
Due to the high switching frequency and the transient
currents produced by the LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2, careful
board layout is necessary. A true ground plane and short
connections to all capacitors will improve performance
and ensure proper regulation under all conditions.

Power Efficiency
To calculate the power efficiency (η) of a white LED driver
chip, the LED power should be compared to the input
power. The difference between these two numbers represents lost power whether it is in the charge pump or the
current sources. Stated mathematically, the power efficiency is given by:
η=

(1.5x Mode)
The efficiency of the LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 depends upon
the mode in which it is operating. Recall that the
LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 operates as a pass switch,
connecting VBAT to CPO, until dropout is detected at the
ILED pin. This feature provides the optimum efficiency
available for a given input voltage and LED forward
voltage. When it is operating as a switch, the efficiency is
approximated by:
η=
In 1.5x boost mode, the efficiency is similar to that of a
linear regulator with an effective input voltage of 1.5 times
the actual input voltage. This is because the input current
for a 1.5x charge pump is approximately 1.5 times the load
current. In an ideal 1.5x charge pump, the power efficiency
would be given by:
(
(

) = VLED

•
(1x Mode)
since the input current will be very close to the sum of the
LED currents.
At moderate to high output power, the quiescent current
of the LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2 is negligible and the expression above is valid.
Once dropout is detected at the LED pin, the LTC3209-1/
LTC3209-2 enables the charge pump in 1.5x mode.
Similarly, in 2x boost mode, the efficiency is similar to that
of a linear regulator with an effective input voltage of 2
times the actual input voltage. In an ideal 2x charge pump,
the power efficiency would be given by:
ηIDEAL =

Thermal Management
For higher input voltages and maximum output current,
there can be substantial power dissipation in the
LTC3209-1/LTC3209-2. If the junction temperature increases above approximately 150°C the thermal shutdown circuitry will automatically deactivate the output
current sources and charge pump. To reduce maximum
junction temperature, a good thermal connection to the PC
board is recommended. Connecting the Exposed Pad to a
ground plane and maintaining a solid ground plane under
the device will reduce the thermal resistance of the package and PC board considerably.
